“[Trump] believed that the pragmatists in the Iranian regime would take over after his military action,” says @gilbert-achcar.bsky.social, emeritus professor at SOAS, University of London. “The result has been exactly the contrary. Very clearly, it just enhanced the militarization of the regime.”

We are cleaning up the e-bike mess. 🧹 Hundreds of people have written to me about dockless e-bikes clogging pavements. Badly parked e-bikes like these are a real nuisance for pedestrians and cyclists, and for people with disabilities or additional mobility needs, they can block homes and streets.
Open Source, Not Corporate AI! AI should belong to everyone—or to a select few! 🤖 Open technology = Innovation for all. ❌ Closed systems = Control by a handful of corporations. Europe must decide now: Do we create or just consume? Wake up, Europe! The future won’t wait! #AI #Art #NFT #AIForGood

What does that mean in terms of action? Will you refuse to use any services developed or delivered using AI, including the majority of medical services, all internet services, and many movies that include special effects? The oil industry creates suspicion of electric vehicles to maintain power.
This message from him meant so much to me because I truly did feel like I was in the minority… But being in a room filled with supporters in this extremely red pocket of Georgia gave me hope. What a fantastic man he is and I really do hope Shawn get a win in April and then in November!

At both the state and local level, it's time to phase out honors for Cesar Chavez and replace them with honors for Dolores Huerta, a true hero of the labor and human rights movements. Kudos to State Reps. Angie Cuellar and Edgar Gonzalez, Jr., for starting this effort.
