keep thinking about the evil of this. It's not just destroying the physical books, bad as that is. They are trying to remove the underpinnings of knowledge, destroy all the accumulated wisdom - and silliness, and creativity, and whatever else humans have thought worthy of writing down.

Wild watching this 1995 live version of Revelate by the Frames. On Irish late night TV. Glen Hansard on guitar and vocals. youtu.be/7jGsz1mmWTc?...

Backstory on the Melat Kiros campaign that beat Diana DeGette via @coloradotimesrecorder.com A lot resonates. Big for me is how the voting landscape has changed (in CO CD 1 but also everywhere) and how this candidate and campaign saw that clearly. coloradotimesrecorder.com/2026/07/behi...

Falling Slowly. RIP Glen Hansard. youtu.be/CffkSvcTmgQ?...

CBS, tired of its slow march towards the cliffs of obscurity and humiliation, has decided to sprint over the edge.

As long as the press prints bullshit as news it will keep making money for energy trading people. So why stop now?

Did you know that people were placing bets on the outcomes of the LA fires last year? @highcountrynews.org's Kylie Mohr talks with Climate-Colored Goggles' @sammyroth.bsky.social about the ethical & real world concerns about prediction market betting.

Data centers are about political power and one must appreciate @davekarpf.bsky.social cutting to the chase and just saying that loud and clear. You can debate the ifs, and hows, and whys...just don't forget its about who has power and what they want with it. davekarpf.beehiiv.com/p/the-data-c...

People who are suddenly deported to countries they haven’t been to for years — or, in some cases, have NEVER been to — are incredibly vulnerable. We are going to be reading stories like this for years. God have mercy on their three little girls.

I was just listening to Olivia Messer talk about what went wrong at The Barbed Wire and one of the things she keep coming back to was: ​**We should have had a registration wall** Tomorrow, we're going to show you what this is and how to set one up luma.com/9gzma10k

"Remember, stupidity always brings losing and death" is a pretty apt tagline for the GOPs worldview.

Dozens of 100,000+ acre monsters burning in the American west this summer. (100,000 acres = 156 square miles, the size of the city of Denver, home to 750,000 people) Imagine solidarity and political unity (or leadership on decarbonisation) here. It’s possible - if very hard.

DFW has pros and cons but was rarely wrong. Good collection of essays. Curious about the class.

That’s so cool. Do cranes hang out in town all the time?

The Bulwark out here doing the work of McCarthy, Goldwater, Reagan, and Musk.

I run a job list called Future Community Jobs. It's a curated list of progressive news and nonprofit jobs. All real. All with salaries. Find it here brightplus3.com/future-commu... And this @heartlandsignal.bsky.social Editor in Chief role looks fab: heartlandsignal.com/jobs/editor-...

we love us some Poco out here in colorado... youtu.be/9iviQ6kc4Uk?...

"I don't want to get technical here, but you can't make a historically accurate version of something that is totally made the f*ck up."

The quote in the @wired.com story comes from @evangreer.bsky.social who you should be following. The article is worth a read.

The fact that public surveillance can be turned off for the rich seems a demonstration that they're quite aware of their false narrative. "privacy is a luxury for the elite few, and the rest of us are subjected to pervasive surveillance everywhere we go" www.wired.com/story/for-ta...
