Today I checked out a book I'd reserved at the library, and I got the usual emailed notification from them, but this time it informed me that I "just saved $26" by checking it out instead of buying it. That's a pretty good idea for helping people appreciate the value of their public library!

FFS I got death threats about making Optimus Prime the wrong kind of truck when I wrote the TRANSFORMERS movie. Do the job or get out of the way.

Oh dear you’re going to want to read this. Looks like DOGErs were caught exfiltrating NLRB data, likely on unions, for private (seemingly Elony) use. This is must read. What we’ve all suspected. But now details. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

Mohsen Mahdawi of White River Junction, Vermont was illegally detained by ICE during what was supposed to be the final step in his citizenship process. Mr. Mahdawi, a legal resident of the US, must be afforded due process under the law and immediately released from detention.

“Hey, hey, Elon, How many kids did you kill today?” admittedly doesn’t rhyme as well as the original. But that’s not as important as Elon being responsible for the needless deaths of tens of thousands of kids.

An innocent man, picked up by “mistake,” must not be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. Mr. President. Obey the courts. Obey our Constitution. Bring him home immediately.

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

This is a big deal. Spread the word. But it’s tiny compared to the totality of what’s happening at NIH. Cure Research for all cancers, Alzheimer’s, everything is being gutted. Intentionally. It’s all getting burned to the ground but the news isn’t getting out. The new cures won’t be there for you.

Just a legal historian here reminding everyone that “high crimes and misdemeanors” do not need to be felonies. They can include political abuses and stupidity, like, hypothetically, destroying the economy and wiping out people’s savings in 3 days.

You may be fearing your 401k is no longer enough for you to retire. But with all the cuts to NIH and Medicare you also won't live as long. So the policies are integrated.

Republicans in Congress are hoping you won’t pay attention to them for the next 36 hours. Why? Because they're pushing through their unpopular plan that gives tax handouts to billionaires and billionaire corporations and leaves everyone else in the dirt. youtube.com/shorts/RZ-nl...

LinkedIn is a pretty odd mix of pseudo-business shamanism and TED talk 10X your life inspired gibberish. I have a few long time connections on there and so I won’t delete it… but it’s kind of a bizarre platform.

It's critical to keep naming these losses, not in the spirit of "can you believe what they're doing," but to remember what's being lost. I've taught students from countries that erase the past, and they're stunned to learn of major events in their own countries. That's the fascist goal here.
