At best this is total incompetence and ignorance. At worst they don't even care that they're putting it out there for the world to see. Even giving them the benefit of the doubt, it's still inexcusable.

I have heard Col Malachowski speak in person. Truly an amazing pilot, service member and human being outside of the military. Some of the articles have been put back after the backlash, but they shouldn't have been removed to begin with.

I had a lightbulb moment the first time I saw this years ago. We know more now, we have better terminology and diagnostics. As Maya Angelou says, "when you know better, do better." www.reddit.com/r/autism/s/S...

In response to RFK Jr's comments on autism, he's put on display his complete lack of understanding of what autism is... Not just what he thinks causes it. The increased numbers, which admittedly have grown exponentially, isn't necessarily because there are MORE people with autism. /1

This is a foundational reason why #Altgov exists. Government information was bought and paid for by you. We won't let them hide behind their cowardice.

I came across these graphics which offer helpful advice for those who have been, or think they may be laid off. Not all the graphics may pertain to your specific situation, but the overall advice is solid.

I'm appalled at the behavior of our leaders in the Oval Office today. My father, a 21 year Army vet, who served in Vietnam, and during the Cold War in Germany and the Pentagon, never discussed politics. He taught us the importance of using our voice and doing our civic duty by voting. /1

I don't know about you, but I seem to vacillate between complete and utter despair and being galvanized to do more. My posts in support of taking care of yourself and banding together are there to remind myself that this is a marathon, not a sprint, and we can't do it by ourselves./1

Just to keep things real... We may have been at the Grammys a week ago, but today, Scales and I had our Valentine's lunch at Golden Corral attached to a gas station. We like to keep our feet on the ground. Happy Valentine's Day, my love, @altscalesofjustice.bsky.social #Classy #VDayRomance

I found this over on Instagram and found it comforting. I believe the credit goes to @heatherschieder.bsky.social Take care of yourselves so we can take care of each other. #SelfCare #Resist #LoveEachOther #LoveYourself www.instagram.com/p/DFaw-Yvvo3...

If you thought government bureaucracy was slow before... Just wait until there's no one there to do anything.

Millions of Americans — including many who have been purged from their positions of responsibility — are standing up to Trump and Musk’s tyranny. Congressional switchboards are ringing off the hook. We are beginning to flood Trump and Musk’s zone. Let’s flood it out.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

Hey #AltFam this is a great 5 min clip of Rep. Stansbury (D-NM) on the House Oversight Committee ripping her Republican colleagues a new one over their shielding of Musk. Don't be fooled by her polite tone at the start of the video! Can you guys amplify this? youtu.be/SPK_iBfFQNo?...

For all my trans peeps especially, Coach Walz is your governor now. Please know that the #altgov and #altfam and all the sistah resistahs of every gender see you and value you and will always fight for your right to be you. #LGBT #LGBTQIA #TransRights #FreeDadHugs #FreeMomHugs #resist

I know how easy it is to get overwhelmed. I promise you though, there are far more people who want to do what's right than not. If we stand together we will prevail.
