  “The night before he stopped by the Desk, Flea took a moment between songs at the Black Cat in Washington, D.C., to call his experience of performing with a #jazz band ‘an adventure.’ After four decades as a founding member and bassist for Red Hot Chili Peppers, #Flea was touring on his debut solo album, Honora, in small venues, including the NPR #Music office space.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQK2U-KrhuA

  “Technology has changed the way students study and learn. Now, as artificial intelligence enters the classroom, proponents argue it will be a welcome revolution for schools — but with limited guardrails, could it do more harm than good?

  This keyboard clicker from @britt is the best fidget I’ve ever owned! It has varied textures, it’s tactile and clicky, it’s the perfect size, and it’s the color of my first iMac. :)

  “In 2025, national parks recorded more than 323 million visits, and 26 parks set attendance records. But as the parks gain popularity, the Trump administration has proposed slashing $1 billion from the National Park Service, likely eliminating thousands of jobs from an already understaffed workforce. Geoff Bennett discussed more with Jeff Reinbold of the National Park Foundation.” https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/national-park-foundation-chief-on-protecting-americas-shared-spaces

  “The FCC is ramping up the pressure on ABC and Disney by threatening to strip broadcasters of their station licenses. The #FCC says the review of the licenses is tied to #Disney’s DEI initiatives, but it’s widely seen as retaliation in the ongoing battle between President Trump and #ABC late-night host Jimmy Kimmel.” https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/fcc-threatens-abcs-licenses-as-trumps-call-for-kimmels-firing

  When asking people to use correct names is "crossing a line," but using incorrect names isn't, we've really fallen far as a society. Using the correct name used to be a day one thing in education. "Robert?” "I prefer Grace.” "Excellent, welcome Grace.” It's not difficult. @adhdeanasl https://beige.party/@adhdeanasl/116414682455732841

  #Bluesky is lucky to have Toni as an interim CEO. He was the first CEO I ever actually enjoyed working under. He focussed on how the product is only as good as the employees are allowed to be. https://www.wired.com/story/bluesky-ceo-jay-graber-is-stepping-down/

  “Rowling has made it abundantly clear that she thinks attacking transgender people via the legal system is a worthwhile cause and a good use of her vast personal fortune. And as much as #HarryPotter fans might be excited to see what HBO has cooked up, there’s no way to watch this show without supporting Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on a vulnerable minority.” https://www.theverge.com/report/901818/hbo-harry-potter-jk-rowling-transphobia
