It's your patriotic American duty to punch nazis! #punchanazi

TIL Cheez-Its has a new flavor, Smoked Cheddar. Uh, oh.

Oof, this is sad. He needs to get resign, and get help.

I highly recommend this YouTube channel. 800 plus full episodes of the BBC show. The crew repairs beloved family heirlooms. Emotional sniffling guaranteed during every episode. youtube.com/@therepairsh...

US lab that certifies NIOSH approved respirators and masks may be closed by federal govt cuts. What could possibly go wrong? penncapital-star.com/health-care/...

The Apple TV Murderbot trailer is out. It is fantastic. #Murderbot youtu.be/vEioDeOiqEs?...

North Carolinians, check to see if your vote for Riggs was thrown out. You have 2 weeks to correct it!

Maybe it's just me, but seems unsafe to have your picture and your name broadcast all over the news with confirmation that your net worth is at least $1,000,000. Hey, spammers and con-men, look at me! Fresh meat!

Well worth 10 minutes of your time. John Lithgow reads Twenty Lessons, from the book On Tyranny by Timothy Snyder. open.substack.com/pub/snyder/p...

From Paul Krugman's Substack posted this morning, "Everything we know about the Trumpists’ approach to economic policy, or policy in general, suggests both that Trump himself has no understanding of economics — that he has prejudices rather than ideas" open.substack.com/pub/paulkrug...

This thread, with pictures, is amazing.

DOGE decided this guy was dead (based on what, we have no idea). Shut off his Medicare and Social Security, and pulled two months of SSA payments out of his bank. Seems to be fixed now, but if DOGE order this change without a death certificate it is a very, very bad sign.

Great editorial cartoon. open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

Very informative and scary Reddit post from an ER nurse about the difference in triage between vaccinated and unvaccinated children. LOTS more invasive tests are required for unvaccinated kids, because they have a much higher chance of serious illness. www.reddit.com/r/EmergencyR...

Great, scary interview by Paul Krugman on Substack, no paywall. Nathan Tankus has a lot of insight into the Bureau of Fiscal Service (BFS) at Treasury, where DOGE stopped payments to USAID. Social Security, Medicare/Medicaid, and every other federal payment uses BFS. substack.com/inbox/post/1...

This team worked on the IRS free file system, that Musk just cancelled. And other govt technology improvements.

Wow, this is great. Ought to make all the right people mad.

“When Schriver refused to take questions at his own news conference detailing the resolution in Lansing, Jeremy Moss – Michigan’s first openly gay state senator – stepped up to speak to journalists instead,” calling the resolution “buffoonish”: michiganadvance.com/2025/02/26/a...

"Jeff Bezos overhauls Washington Post opinion section, says it will focus on 'personal liberties and free markets'" The opinion editor quit. And I have, finally, unsubscribed.

I think I'm in love with Judge Reyes. I told my wife, and she was very understanding.

Judge orders nationwide preliminary injunction of anti-DEI executive orders. "Plaintiffs’ irreparable harms include widespread chilling of unquestionably protected speech." www.justsecurity.org/wp-content/u...

Gotta hand it to South Korea and Brazil for learning from our mistakes, and prosecuting people attempting coups

Elect a clown, get a circus. Glad I ordered more masks a few weeks ago.

Government does important work — but not if DOGE can prevent it paulkrugman.substack.com/p/our-govern...

Good to see them treating this administration like the crisis it is.

Beyond disappointing. NCMEC's actions are despicable.

Nice! www.medpagetoday.com/special-repo... "We at the American Journal of Public Health have no interest in following the president's prohibitions on language," said Georges Benjamin, MD, publisher of AJPH and executive director of its parent organization, the American Public Health Association.

Kakistocracy. 🤦‍♀️

I asked my Alexa device for the overnight forecast, and afterwards it said it could now notify me of breaking news. I turned down the offer. The LAST thing I need right now is more breaking news. 😬

OMG.

I hope new Secretary of State Marco Rubio is paying attention to Trump stripping security protection from old Sec of State Mike Pompeo.

Excellent description.

70% of Americans disapprove of "Gulf of America". Higher than I expected.

Madness.

The Air Force is stripping Tuskegee Airmen lessons from basic training curriculum because of our White supremacist government. Put that in a headline. www.expressnews.com/news/article...
