If you’re a federal worker looking for a good accomplishment to share with Elon, tell him you responded to texts from the mother of your children.

I have pumped enough milk to donate to my local milk bank and I'm so 😭😭😭 after having such trouble producing milk at first. Tiny babies, I'm sending milk your way!!!

The more people understand their rights, the better they can protect themselves. We compiled this guide with the help of legal experts and advocates. Share it far and wide.

Professors please pull up a chair. I’ve been talking to my classes about what has been going on. I explained indirect costs to them. I talked to them about what a probationary employee is in the government. At the end of class they asked if we could talk about it more. (1/)

In this Indiana diner, everyone has three questions: How's the breaded tenderloin? Is the quarry hiring? And when will the feds finally put an end to congestion pricing in Manhattan?

Can you lease a Cybertruck, or is it just a self-own?

I'd like to hear from current and former employees at USDA-APHIS (esp PPQ & VS) and USDA-ARS. Happy to keep your identity confidential or even just talk off the record, if that's what you'd prefer. You can reach me at [email protected] or on Signal at emilyanthes.41

if you were accidentally fired while transporting a nuclear warhead and currently need a place to stay with said warhead please know that i have a sizable backyard and an abiding desire to be a nuclear power

Guys, you've really got to stop using Amazon.

If you're still posting on Meta, my N=1 experiment seems to point to the algorithm punishing the words Musk, Doge, and Trump (also the linking of news articles). I used "Doggie" and an emoji of a dog today and it's pushing to a much wider audience

“I THINK THEY'RE FOCUSED ON THE WRONG 1%” - Laverne Cox (speaking to America (on the View) about the administration’s use of transphobia, propaganda, and policy to harm the trans community) Image by @sainthoax.bsky.social via IG 🙏💙🙏💙🙏 I’ll be right here waiting for you…

I can't help but wonder if instead of donating more money to the Dems, I should just look into renting a billboard in my tiny town warning people to freeze their credit because Elon has your data.

Jose and his coworkers are in Watsonville, CA, planting strawberries for the upcoming season. Jose shares, "I work 8 hours a day. I get tired by the end of the day and my back hurts from bending over all day." #WeFeedYou

This is truly a terrifying time to have an infant.

I like the economic blackout and plan to participate, but truly, y'all, if you're not already switching to buying second hand as much as possible, now is the time.

NAACP lists companies that dump DEI in its tactical spending guide for Black Americans

I just want to make sure as many people see this as possible. It's not safe to feed raw food to cats right now, and that's unlikely to change anytime soon. Even fancy brands that use "human grade" ingredients aren't safe. Freeze dried raw foods aren't safe either. Bird flu kills cats.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Happy Valentine's!

Fairly sure that the best technological development of the last century is that all baby garments with hoods now have animal ears. A free dopamine hit every time!

HuffPost reporting 1,000 protesters and growing at Stonewall! If you are in the area get down there!

One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!

We have Musk protest events popping up at Tesla showrooms and plants all over the country and many more here and worldwide. Join or create your own event at Teslatakedown.com

FYI: the federal government is the largest employer of veterans.

The cruelty and callousness of what the US government is doing here, the pain it is inflicting, the waste of time and energy and taxpayer money, the risks it is creating are just staggering… #IDsky 🧪 www.science.org/content/arti...

The National Park Service has removed "T" and all mention of transgender people from the Stonewall National Monument. Trans women were some of the most influential activists behind the Stonewall movement and what followed. 3 articles of clothing laws were why raids happened. Erasure.

This is 100 percent what I'm seeing in rural America. People are delighted with the "corruption" Musk is "finding"

Is there a digital Green Book effort that folks in rural America could contribute to when we know a local business is not safe for LGBTQ folks or people of color?

It is truly remarkable how many people that say they love America can hate so many other Americans so much.

Put tariffs on the podcast mics. Enough.

My sister in law is coming to babysit on Valentine's Day and my partner asked what I wanted to do and the only thing that came to mind was plastering our town with signs that say "Elon Is Stealing From You." Romance, 2025 style

Tesla's stock is ridiculously overvalued, and even a modest consumer boycott could tank the company, which accounts for the majority of Elon Musk's wealth. The divestment movement weakened apartheid South Africa. Let's do that again. slate.com/business/202...
