I've been thinking it would be nice to do some in person meetups. Would anyone be interested in getting together in the Seattle area sometime in late Feb or early March? I'm thinking just a hotel bar kinda thing, so we don't have to make a reservation and it would be fine to have as few or as many people as want to show up, but I'm open to ideas.
Hi everyone, I haven't been active in Solid Ground for a while, but I am still alive and kicking! I now work as personal assistant to a mind-bendingly weird and diva-esque artist-lip-syncher-performer named Fiona Blueberry. She is blissfully clueless about politics and seems to be completely unaware of the culture wars. Working with her is a breath of fresh air. If you need a mood lift, I encourage you to watch this video we made together. Happy 4th, everyone! Wishing you fun/love/peace on this holiday. :) www.fionablueberry.com
Our very own @YayRain (after having imbibed some golden nectar), shares with us yet one more problem with CRT....
This newly released film, which seems to be a Western and satire re the pandemic, has been getting polarized responses/reviews. From this interview with Moynihan, it sounds like the director was trying to depict how we are living in different worlds due to the Internet and wanted to treat the different perspectives charitably. (Turns out he actually was into masking himself.)
This is part of a series by Compact magazine's Ashley Frawley and Geoff Shullenberger. I found this episode thought provoking and somewhat dread inducing (anything that touches on where we might be headed with AI or some of the anti-human thinking out there makes me squirm a bit). https://pca.st/episode/09631075-edae-483e-ba75-7dc2af5ab0ea
Mark Halperin from 2WAY commissioned this. Interesting questions. Not looking good for those of us who aren't Mamdani fans. https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/66d898881210c41df9d69622/687fddca50d216e11b69c97e_NYC%20Mayor%20Survey%20Results%2C%20July%202025%20full%20Final.pdf
