@willdalrymple.bsky.social I finished reading you epic book, The Golden Road. I enjoyed the unique journey it took me on through trade with India, spread of Buddhism, Hindu and Islam, and the science & math connections to West

“We must not allow Trump and Bannon’s threats to become normalized. We must sound the alarm and insist that our leaders resist Trump’s efforts to take over elections and use federal officers to restrict voting and intimidate U.S. citizens from voting.”
One month into 2026 and Republicans are losing their minds
If Democrats win the majority, Trump’s authoritarian plan will be foiled — and he knows that.

This isn’t immigration policy. It’s a business model.

ICE keeps growing, not because it makes America safer, but because corporations are raking in billions off cages, bodies, and suffering. ICE’s existence is a massive revenue stream.

I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland.

@willdalrymple.bsky.social I’m a slow reader only up to Wu Zetian’s story, and I’m fascinated by how you got so much detail ubout her rise to power and impact on Chinese Buddhism.

@willdalrymple.bsky.social I love the detailed history of Buddhism, especially Mahayana that you’ve provided in The Golden Road. I obviously knew of the decline of Buddhism in India and you explain how that happened in detail.

Breakthrough Antisense Oligonucleotide Treatments Explained
Claire's story highlights her transformation from a child with spinal muscular atrophy to one able to walk and communicate, thanks to the breakthrough antisense oligonucleotide therapy, Spinraza. This therapy symbolizes hope for many genetic conditions, though challenges remain, including delivery difficulties, side effects, high costs, and the need for further research in efficacy and access.

Everyone everywhere should call out Trump for his erratic behavior. Expecting the military to shoot civilians in the legs. Expecting someone to arrest and murder veterans in Congress for reminding the military that not all orders are legal to carry out.
