I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

While in Australia over the summer, I often came across signs like these. It's not a perfect idea, but it's the right direction. Maybe Americans can take a cue on a day like today, and give a few minutes to think about how we continue to acknowledge -- or ignore -- our own indigenous populations.

I'm quite sure this is just prelude to another scam, but as it's not asking anything of me I'm just going to enjoy the statement for what it is. And it's so non-specific, you should, too. We can all be Amazing Authors. Thanks, David.

lede = introductory section in journalism bury the lede = hiding the most relevant pieces of a story within other distracting information Allegedly, it’s spelled ‘lede’ to avoid confusion with ‘lead,’ which was the strip of metal that would separate lines of type.

This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

When I note that a friend's post is AI and they get either het up or say "it's just a joke" or suggest I side with the orange menace because it's a political thing I feel like saying: 1/4 🧵
