Thinking about handing-out pocket copies of the USA Constitution alongside our Halloween candy this year.

What are your top 5 reasons why Americans across the political spectrum should be concerned by Trump 2.0? Say a conservative friend is confused about the #NoKings protests (“we don’t have a king, what’s the issue?") and wonders why people are so upset. What are the 5 most factual/concerning things?

Help! I’m looking for the clearest, briefest summary possible of Trump 2.0’s misdeeds that should be upsetting to all Americans. Something you could give to a conservative who’s, say, “confused” by the No Kings rallies since “we don’t have a king.” Someone not mainlining FOX but mainly uninformed.

Is there a clear explainer out there that highlights the similarities between Trump’s misbehavior and the Declaration of Independence’s grievances against King George? I’m looking for something that can be shared w/people who are indifferent twd No Kings protests because “we don’t have a king”

34 today. How do I feel? Sore from soccer last night! 👴🏻

Huzzah! Scientists are leaving X for Bluesky. Now we just need everyone cool in computer science, software development, tech, etc. to make the move. www.psypost.org/scientist…

Ha! There’s a new genz coding language, created entirely with/by Claude, called “cursed”: simonwillison.net/2025/Sep/… What a time to be alive!

OK, hear me out: Clergy show up to protests in inflatable frog costumes but the frogs are wearing clergy shirts and collars. Could we pull this off? y/n

Maybe the real antifa was the friends we made along the way.

Any initial thoughts on “Dilexi te”? www.vatican.va/content/l…

Careful, kids. I heard they’re putting ANTIFA in Halloween candy this year!

An image of a pipe. Text reads (in French)/ “This isn’t a pipe. This is ANTIFA.”

Are there any hands-free slip-on shoes out there that would be good for weightlifting? 🏋️

Welp if the Micro Social guy is quitting, what’s the next best Micro.Blog client for when Micro Social gets buggy?

I’ve made it 3 weeks in a row of rec soccer without any injuries! My body’s still pretty sore/upset with me for a few days after each match, though. Oh, to be 10 years younger and 2x quicker. Fun to be playing soccer again, though.

I don’t currently have any signs out, but Halloween strikes me as a good opportunity to leverage signs (and maybe even flyers, handouts, etc.) to let my neighbors know that I’d like to build some solidarity with my fellow citizens as our country collapses into Fascism. Any content ideas out there?

I know it’s the least of our problems, but these warmer-than-average October days are going to send me over the edge. I need some chilly Fall days soon! 🫠
