The more I engage with #evangelicalchristians online the more #atheist I become. Well more #antitheist. If we want to advance as a civilization we need to abandon religion before it destroys the planet.

In her latest podcast, Rachel Maddow tells the fascinating tale of how members of Congress colluded with Nazis before WWII and uncovers the rhymes of history. It's brilliantly done and a helluva story. I explain in my "Our Land" newsletter.

"Ignoring the ways in which anti-democratic policies influenced the midterm outcomes leaves us with an inaccurately rosy view of our democracy and prevents us from recognizing the urgency of reform."

Someone asked me if it was worth losing a quarter million followers on Twitter by no longer posting original content.

Yes.

Besides the fact that I will never jeopardize my mental health for a social media account, it's a safety issue.

Two years ago, the FBI made an arrest after a serious threat was made against my family on Twitter. I no longer believe Twitter would assist an investigation if that occurred again.

I'm not feeding into that platform because of the hate it is fostering.

Also,

So,a fascist fuck that has stolen and "sold" top secret documents, gave the rich a tax break that the rest of us will now have to pay for..and is under criminal and civil investigations..
can just announce his candidacy for President of United States all willy nilly?
We are lost as a nation.

This bottle cap really understands me

Posted a good bye and signed off of Twitter.

For me, it came down to the ethics of who we surround ourselves as we interact. I benefit from these conversations and I believe my community does too. Individuals should not have to suffer to take part in them. We need inclusive & safe spaces to discuss science, free from hate. On the bird site, hate mongering is coming from the top. That's it - nope out.

Honestly, I appreciate the opportunity to reset and rethink of what we want this to be. And I'm excited to build up an inclusive community here with all of you!

"‘We’d have to take money away from patients waiting for operations to fund additional pay’ Steve Barclay claims"

It's just not true.

Not funding the NHS properly is a deliberate choice made by this government.

Anyone who says this flu season is like any recent year has no idea what they're talking about.

The US has never recorded this many positive flu tests in one week https://www.vox.com/2022/12/6/23494948/flu-influenza-rsv-covid-vaccine-chart-tripledemic-tridemic?utm_campaign=vox&utm_content=entry&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter via @voxdotcom@twitter.com

When you see a headline saying that someone did something “quietly,” it usually means that the media missed the story and now they’re trying to catch up. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/12/us/politics/midterm-elections-voting-rights.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

I would love to rebuild our community of veterans.

If you are a veteran, drop me a hello in the replies.

Maybe a hashtag would help too.

My advice, if you're new here, is to post. I'm still working on it myself.

The late stages of Twitter rewarded us for posting less frequently and for posting the worst kind of takes when we did.

There's no algorithm here to feed, so post what you're interested in and what you're curious about. Share the things that you care about and you'll find your communities here quickly enough.
