My review of Manny Fidel's "Colored People Time: A Case for (Casual) Rebellion": www.goodreads.com/review/show/... #booksky #BookReviews #nonfiction #essays #immigration #racism #AfricanHistory anybody know why previews to stupid goodreads aren't showing up anymore?

Deep-sea mining halted as global moratorium gains support. International negotiations have again resulted in a no to deep-sea mining, with no code adopted and no projects authorised. It appears humanity is coalescing around the conclusion that this is a bad idea. buff.ly/6dRGO7w #ShareGoodNewsToo

i used to wonder what it felt like to be an anti-nazi german in the years after 1933 i didn't want to know, mind you. i just wondered.

hey so there's a one-time kinktomato exception for kristi gnome's husband, right? 😎

notice also that we have here another racist, misogynist scumbag who has never had (consensual) sex with another person and never will

This may change your world. Birds process sound and vision around 10 times more rapidly than humans do. Here, I have a 2.3 second clip of an Eastern Whipbird call, followed by the same clip slowed 10x. Perhaps it's time to recognise that different intelligences are no less relevant than ours. #Birds

She was so great! @lackolight.bsky.social, back in the day of cassette tapes I wore more than 1 out, listening to her.

I came for the mmm romance in Rears & Vices and I’ve stayed for the rants about the evils of slavery and The East India Company. I AM HAVING A GREAT TIME.

U.S. men's hockey with Curt-Schilling-in-Boston levels of good will squandering. A 25-mile lead in the good will marathon and they tripped on their dicks right at the finish line.

who invented kimchi fries and where can i find them so i can give them all my money and the deed to my house

#cops wonder why TF people hate them when they can't even laugh at themselves getting caught in the middle of a snowball fight #snowflakes

TFW you're editing & go to check how #military formations are properly designated, only to find yourself on an *official* US gov't website designated "Department of War." Oh, fuck you so hard sideways with a cactus & no lube, #PeteHegseth. Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you. #BookSky #authoritarianism

Whoa. The first blizzard warning issued for NYC since 2017. This could be a big one www.cnn.com/2026/02/21/w...

#ICE is known to kidnap people who are walking their #dogs & just leave the dog on the street. Time to make sure your dog's tags/microchip list a US citizen as a contact, if at all possible 🤦🏻

It's not a new observation at this point but that wild Noem/Lewandowski story in WSJ really brings home the extent to which all the Trump 2 cabinet-level goblins see their jobs as flying private, doing short-form video, and screaming at underlings. They all hate each other and none of them can read.

this was so good! jem and tean are the gateway drug for any number of greg ashe fans & this is for good reason (you should really start with "the same breath," the first jem & tean book: you will not regret it!)

#BrooklynNY: Our local anti-fascist folks are making care packages for kids whose family members have been kidnapped by the regime's #ICE thugs. If you can contribute a few bucks, we would sure appreciate it! gofund.me/55a1456a7
