I was one of the more than 9k in attendance at Bernie's Fighting Oligarchy Rally in Warren, MI today. The line to get in was literally a mile long when I got there, and it kept growing. Took almost an hour, once I got in line, to get in the door. Was in one of the multiple overflow rooms. Worth it

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

This shit is infuriating. Bio removed from NASA site? Well, this fellow random woman in STEM will share your info. I don't have near the audience as NASA, but if others who see this also share... Women in STEM fields should not be erased from their fields, and we should not be complicit.

Several conversations today w people in the key executive departments. And while the particulars are hard to pin down my impression is that the Musk take over stuff is considerably worse than is being presented in the press. By this I don’t necessarily things they done yet but the level of …

It's been interesting seeing the response from "Christians" to an actual Christian message. As an Atheist, I fully stand behind Bishop Budde's message, as it's a humanitarian message, and I would consider myself a humanitarian. Funny the messages people take to heart.
