I’m unemployed right now because of these two chucklefucks so yeah, I’m gonna make time to enjoy watching them destroy themselves.

So Taylor just lives rent free in his head 24/7 eh?

Any size pizza is a personal pan pizza if you’re brave enough.

Maybe somebody should show Mango Mussolini the AI video of Muskrat licking his feet. Bet he will believe that’s real too.

Can’t wait to see what a shitshow this is. 😭

1/ I took the latest DoD deferred resignation. Why? Because it has been made clear to me that my job will no longer be supporting fundamental research but instead cancelling DEI grants and policing grant language. I have loved my job and I’m sad. But I love the idea of fundamental research and

People point out that so far He Who Shall Not Be Named has spent about 25% of his time golfing and it has cost absurd money. I understand and share the outrage. But also, I would so happily have had him spend 100% of his time golfing at whatever the cost if only he’d left everything else alone.

I put a good old fashioned thank you card in today’s mail for Cory Booker.

Go Cory go!

I swear if the dems fall for the “they’ll blame us for the shutdown” shit….

One really “neat” aspect of being a fired Fed is that the ethics rules for my next employment allegedly still apply. I’d be a competitive candidate for industry positions, save for the fact that I’m not able to work with the agency from which I was terminated by DOGE.

Some guidance for DoD folks. It’s refreshing to finally see even this tiny bit of pushback.

“Efficiency” is relocating a bunch of remote DoD civilians into DC to work in person, paying each of them the higher locality percentage and putting them on PCS leave and paying for the move. They’ll probably get terminated anyway. Are we great again yet?

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

I’m aware of at least one DoD office where employees were teleworking because their building was condemned and there was no place else to go. Today they had to report to a rented conference room where they all sat at a single conference room table. We are really winning aren’t we? 🙄

My division will return to the office on Monday. We’ve been cautioned that there aren’t desks for most of us, and there isn’t enough bandwidth for all of our computers at once. I’m anticipating that our work will grind to a halt, making a great excuse to gut us in the near future.

All of my representatives seem to have full voicemail boxes today. Only so many of the messages can actually be from me. Keep it up, citizens. We CAN make enough noise. I’m going old school with paper and pen now until I can leave more messages.

Let me give a concrete example of the importance of applications with high risk-high reward as well as the role of NIH staff in taking risks. Decades ago, a physical chemist proposed ideas about doing mass spectrometry on proteins (when this was deemed probably impossible). 1/n

I find Costco overwhelming. Yet here I go to buy a membership today to demonstrate my support for them having a backbone.

If I fall down a flight of stairs and nobody was even there to laugh at me, was it even worth it?

JD Vance remaining silent while members of his own party make disparaging remarks about Indians, despite his wife and children being Indian, speaks volumes about his character and priorities. It tells me all that I need to know about what kind of man that he is.

I don’t do Spotify wrapped. But I imagine if I did it would just be a lot of white noise playlists, and Simon and Garfunkel. Which is really just saying white noise twice….
