Deep respect for pigeons and their history. #augury #community #publichealth and #intergenerational things. I do a bit of this and that, and of late find my expertise in NBC preparedness helpful in achievable mutual aid, support and resistance safety.
EUobserverThe parliament wants to provide digital access to its archive. The access should be swift and the responses should be correct — 100 percent of the time. Generative AI systems, however, are bullshit generators. When you want facts, you do not ask generative AI. So why did the parliament choose a gossiper when it needed an information retrieval tool?
Why is EU Parliament using a 'bullshit generator' AI for archive access?

JA WestenbergIt’s not leadership. It’s damage mitigation. The United States is not being courted—it’s being managed.
Indivisible ❌👑This is what organizing over 1,200 events in a few weeks looks like.

It’s Thursday — that means our leaders Leah and Ezra will be answering your questions later this afternoon. Let’s chat about our expectations for Saturday’s massive Hands Off! mobilizations, Trump’s tariffs, and whatever else is on your mind: https://indivisible.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_SOHxz_KkTY2uCdy30TeitA#/registration
Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: What’s the Plan? A Weekly Discussion with Indivisible’s Co-Founders.. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar.
The onslaught of news, the chaos coming out of the White House – it’s all meant to overwhelm us. It’s a deliberate strategy to sow confusion and make us believe we are powerless to fight back. The antidote: Coming together in community to process what’s happening, to sift through what’s important and what’s just noise, and coalesce around strategies for fighting back. Join Indivisible co-founders Leah Greenberg and Ezra Levin each week, as we carve out an hour to discuss what’s happening and – more importantly – what’s the plan. Most of the hour is left open to Q&A, so submit questions below or submit them in the chat during the event. By providing your email address and registering for this event, you agree to receive email updates from Indivisible, including follow-up from this Zoom event. You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking on the Unsubscribe link at the bottom of an Indivisible email.

Heidi Li FeldmanIn the middle of the sheer hell that is this Trump regime, a former student brought me to tears with this, over on LinkedIn. (See highlight.) #LawFedi
Fesshole 🧻I'm a therapist who has seen hundreds of grieving clients. I rejected the adage "everyone grieves in their own way" because most types of mourning fit into only a dozen different categories. Then my mother died from Alzheimer's and my grief was unique to all of humanity.
