If you have hidden/secret phone (safety reasons or whatever else) - turn it off tomorrow. The only bypass way to ensure you skip the alert = turning it off. Only turn it back on in a safe environment.
Stay safe, make sure it stays hidden.

@ExcessivelyDiverting@bookstodon@histodons I have run out of Murdoch Mysteries any suggestions for period mystery ?
@rabbijill Now, more than ever, our source of grounding must come from within.
@heidilifeldman so true Heidi. And from other people who help ground us when we lose our footing.
Listen: Patrick Stewart Recounts Being A “Severe Bastard” Early On In ‘Star Trek: The Next Generation’ https://trekmovie.com/2023/10/03/listen-patrick-stewart-recounts-being-a-severe-bastard-early-on-in-star-trek-the-next-generation/#patrickstewart#audiobooks#Celebrity#Books#books#TNG
Newt Gingrich, the man who invented making late-night speeches to an empty House chamber because the then-new C-SPAN cameras would broadcast them, is shocked, shocked to see Matt Gaetz making a cynical play for attention
I wrote something for McSweeney's. https://www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/due-to-falling-enrollments-we-will-no-longer-offer-courses-in-romulan-at-starfleet-academy
Excellent critique of the politics of the #Oppenheimer film by esteemed historian Tsuyoshi Hasegawa.
Two key takeaways:
-the film makes the production and use of the weapons seem "inevitable"
-it reinforces the illusion that the nuclear attacks "ended the war" (Hasegawa's work on this elsewhere is definitive)
The article is far more detailed that this and worth a read:
@GottaLaff right? Why don't they just vote for Jeffries?
@GottaLaff However, he does have his eyes on his HOA treasurer seat.
@GottaLaff imagine going through all he went through to get outplayed by freakin' Matt Gaetz... What a historic loser and weakling...
This may be the single best paper I have read in the last 10 years
@GottaLaff jail this fucker
I find it extremely interesting that House Republicans are having to reckon with being held captive by a small minority of their party. As the Republican Party nationwide constantly subjects us to their minoritarian disruption of those elected by a majority, they are getting a firsthand taste of the medicine they so often force on others.
@heidilifeldman Fringe minority rule all the way down. A minoritarian fractal.
Seriously, what a crappy job that must be right now.
I believe that while it's constitutionally possible for the House to elect a nonmember as speaker (it's never actually happened), there would be no congressional salary or benefits for the person elected.
Guess who has two thumbs and is, as of this morning, married to the principal investigator on a major National Institutes of Health grant?

@cafou Japon, ce sera le jour du sport
For the record, I’m not available for the House Speakership. If elected I will not serve.
