I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

I'm stuck at home with asymptomatic Covid and door dash just cancelled my order. All I have left to cheer me up are my submissions to EndDEI.com about the Kennedy Center board appointments.

Nothing screams government efficiency more than accidentally firing government workers and having to spend more money and resources to rehire them.

These centers are also job deserts. They highlight all the employment from construction, but once they're built they barely require onsite staffing.

This generation of students is getting royally fucked in their education. Missing out on years of socialization in a pandemic, AI reliance tanking their cognitive reasoning, and now the government censoring any part of the curriculum that makes white nationalists uncomfortable.

Should be disqualifying for anyone in Minneapolis leadership that has overseen hundreds of millions in lawsuit payouts. Mayoral challengers, this is tee’d up for you. “While Our Rescue has rebranded and hired new leadership, it continues to be named in a federal lawsuit.”

Honestly, Phantom of the Opera. I can riff on the novel, the movie, the musical, including detailed analysis on plot holes, musical leitmotifs, class and gender markers, portrayal of disability, and hell I'll even sing the damn thing. Musical theater kids were built for filibusters.

Musk is doing supervillain-level stuff, but the fact that he's South African has nothing to do with it. How about we don't use xenophobia as a crutch for opposition?

Elon Musk's mother moved to South Africa in the year Apartheid was created, and she and Elon left the year it ended. The last Apartheid Prime Minister, a man who refused to testify at the Truth and Reconciliation Committee, was a family friend who stayed at their home. This is not a crazy theory.

OK like I know our country’s slide into fascism isn’t funny but “the plane crashed bc of DEI” is actually hilarious??? I can’t get over it. DEI ate my homework. DEI stole your lunch money. DEI forged a Rembrandt. What are you TALKING ABOUT. I hate him so much
