@NYTimes What happened to the Diagnosis column in the Magazine? I haven’t seen the every-two-week column in over a month!
I’m attending Third Act Initiative, Inc.’s event, “Stop Dirty Banks in Puget Sound!” – sign up now to join me! https://www.mobilize.us/thirdact/event/551890/?referring_vol=4097734&rname=Paul&share_context=schedule-event-chaining-modal&share_medium=twitter&timeslot=3853023
Stop Dirty Banks in Puget Sound! · Third Act Initiative, Inc.

**Puget Sounders near and far!** Join us in sending a message to 3 “bad banks” on Capitol Hill who are using our money to fund the climate crisis: If you don’t move your money out of fossil fuels, we will move our money out of your banks. **Rain or shine** (hey, it’s Seattle) we’ll gather at 12Noon for a rousing and inspiring **Rally** with music by the **Seattle Labor Chorus** and **Raging Grannies.** We'll hear from **Matt Remle** of the Hunkpapa Lakota tribe and co-founder of Mazaska Talks; **KC Golden and Alec Connon,** leaders in the national climate movement; **Mary Lou Dickerson,** 18-year Washington State Representative; and **Bobby Righi,** activist and retired math teacher. Immediately following the rally, we’ll march up and down Broadway, making visits to Wells Fargo Bank, Chase Bank, and Bank of America with our signs, chants and songs. At each bank we'll cut up credit cards (actually and symbolically), close accounts and deliver pledges to do so, signed by tens of thousands of bank customers around the country. Ready to close your account in a dirty bank or cut up your credit card? Please contact Jim at [email protected], so we can coordinate our actions. **Third Act Puget Sound (TAPS)** is partnering locally with **Puget Sound Advocates for Retirement Action (PSARA), Stop the Money Pipeline, 350 Seattle,** and **350 Eastside.** You don’t have to be members of these climate organizations to join us at the rally! **All are welcome!** We’ll have some signs available, but feel free to bring your own and musical instruments too! _After registering for this event on this sign-up page, please feel free to also [join the Facebook event page here](https://fb.me/e/PLEBTbLJ) and invite your friends!_

I'm having a hard time putting into words how chilling it is to see Elon hinting that he thinks journalists should be jailed for giving him unwanted coverage.

This is a person with access to God-knows-how-many reporters' private correspondences with sources, and each other.

“@KasoKim @Angry_Staffer He deleted it but not before many of us screenshot it.”

American democracy knows no greater enemy than the far right.

Donald Trump calls for the “termination” of the Constitution.

Members of Congress call for martial law (or “Marshall Law”).

Marjorie Taylor Greene says January 6 should have been an armed insurrection.

Elon spends so much time on Twitter, how does he get any actual work done? Doesn’t he own a couple of other companies that need his attention or nah?

Welcome to all journalists who are joining today or logging into the accounts they had signed up for but not using yet.

This was inevitable. If your account on the bird site has not been deleted yet, it will be soon .

And the waters are warm here. People are friendly. There is no capricious dictator.

@w7voa wow, shit. Musk is really going nuts on banning journalists. I mean, I knew it would happen, but still shocking
Companies with Twitter buttons promote a privately-held Twitter that doesn't pay debts & enables violent threats against its former loyal employees. Need to see Mastodon buttons instead. Post News is no better than Twitter - funded by genocide denying-adjacent VCs. https://www.bu.edu/sph/news/articles/2022/reconsidering-our-engagement-with-twitter/
