Aaaaaabsolutely NOT. For exactly what reason do we need a registry of autistic Americans? www.cbsnews.com/news/rfk-jr-...

Don’t publish headlines like this. Yes there has been a focus on expanding women’s careers into STEM, but no focus on expanding career choices men make. Great point. But while DEI is being erased, please don’t use words that make our most privileged population seem underprivileged. @bloomberg.com

When we talk about evil people, and treating them as less than human, it isn't their humanity we are discussing. It is our own. It is never okay to be cruel. When the current administration tries to justify its cruelty, they are demonstrating their own lack of humanity.

Pretty sure someone’s making a lot of money while this administration purposefully manipulates the market. I wonder who it could be?

The next steps are clear. We must ask ourselves — what is even one more tangible thing we can be doing? This will take work, grit, and determination—but this is how change happens. Don't let your inability to do everything undermine your determination to do something in the cause of our country.

After getting some rest, I am in awe of everyone who continues to lift their voice and speak out. This is a moment for our country, and we must make a choice about the America we want to be.

According to a source I have at the CIA, Director Radcliffe lied today under oath. Signal is absolutely not loaded on agency computers. As a matter of fact it’s specifically prohibited as an outside app. Skype is allowed for conference calls but not Signal. He’s lying. @markwarner.bsky.social

🔑 under-discussed point — why they were on signal:

submitted 29 days ago • 1510 comments

Scandal: “causing general public outrage by a perceived offense against morality or law.” Okay, but the Signal Scandal is not a ‘perceived’ offense, can we agree on that? They broke the law. Egregiously. It is not possible to be sufficiently outraged by this blatant disregard for national security.

Not sure how so many people are missing this, but platforms cleared for classified discussions such as war planning don’t actually allow you to accidentally invite someone without a clearance. This isn’t just one person’s fault. This Is an inexcusable breach of national security by all of them.

Since saying something is so evidently makes it true, I can lose 40 pounds by saying I’m skinny, right? Also “I have no debt“ will pay off the credit cards, and “everyone loves me” will make strangers pay my grocery bill…

@sanders.senate.gov do you authorize/endorse the text messages I am receiving that use your image and name to ask for monetary donations? The latest is to overturn citizens united, but they are unceasing in battering our inboxes.

This book should be required reading for every US citizen. As executive order after executive order is published twisting the facts in every possible way, this book sheds light on the way numbers are being used to manipulate opinion and sentiment. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_to_...

This is such an important message. As a masking, autistic woman, polite has always been my unattainable goal. Why is bluntness so offensive? Maybe it’s not actually offensive, it’s just uncomfortable because you don’t like what I’m saying. youtu.be/BxQ15OEEuLM?...

Decide right now what you will do. Make yourself understand that the cost of not acting is worse than whatever will happen if you act and resist. Rehearse this moment in your mind. It’s not fun. But it’s how you live with yourself twenty years from now. open.substack.com/pub/johnpavl...

Today while driving I wanted music. I asked Siri to play my favorites playlist on YouTube music. It put on My Favorite Things from the Sound of Music. I’m not unhappy about that.

I have been distressed this past week, and only today have I understood what I was feeling. A profound sense of grief for the security of our society, knowing no matter what, we will never feel safe again. That officers I served in the military with voted for this simply breaks my heart.

Working remotely for those with no responsibilities that require physical presence should not be an issue. I work with people all over the country. It would be silly for me to go to the office to spend all day on conference calls. But also, it’s an accommodation. www.factcheck.org/2025/02/trum...

📌URGENT: The Associated Press is one of the foremost news operations in the world. Without it, most media entities could not survive. 📌Well, the AP has now been barred from the White House. I'd suggest very strongly that any media that gets its news from AP takes a damn stand here in solidarity.
