Happy #caturday everyone!

Every time I turn around there is an objectively unqualified, self-entitled white or aspirationally white male elevated to a position of power by appointment while shouting #DEI rebranded to mean anyone NOT a Cis white male is unqualified, with absolutely no evidence whatsoever.

My wife and I talk a lot on Telegram. Most of it is "I love you". I wrote a bot which auto-replied to "I love you" with "I love you too" after a short delay. Turns out she did the same thing. I finished work and there were 5,000 unread "I love you" and "I love you too" messages.

Sharing this hilarious comment with the picture with alt text, because the original post had none.

A movie you’ve watched more than six times:

The bottom line is they have no idea what they are doing other than creating chaos. They don’t plan to govern. They break everything and look for ways for their companies to pick up work.

Hey guys. I’m going to order some pizza. Anyone want to come by this afternoon and draft Executive Orders? I figure we have as much legal right as Trump on a lot of this stuff. C’mon…it’ll be fun!

You know how I was screaming about this weeks ago? Well, they came right out and said it; the Trump admin would rather go after migrants than pedophiles, drug traffickers, and terrorists. Funnily, Fox News is eerily silent about this. Because of course.

Since federal health information is getting harder to come by, I thought I'd share this new resource. Cornell's College of Veterinary Medicine launched an online Avian Flu Resource Center--a one-stop clearinghouse for trustworthy information on bird flu. www.vet.cornell.edu/highly-patho...

I finally got to be on scishow tangents! And I got to talk about my least favorite thing, infectious disease. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/p... or wherever you get your podcasts.

“Forty-one U.S. senators could use the filibuster to block most legislation that enables the funding of Musk’s companies. With 53 Republicans, 45 Democrats, and two independents in the Senate, such a push is numerically possible, though politically difficult.“

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

Yes, this is really what is happening

Wonder if Elon could survive a week on the salary we make. While he burns through $8 million a day, the working class struggles—yet he paints us as the enemy.

MY TIME HAS COME!! 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 #JetLag #JLTG

Measles high infection rate is the reason we have not yet been able to eradicate it. That rate means you need a very high vaccination rate to prevent outbreaks. It is possible, but not with current levels of institutional distrust.

New: Last night, hundreds of CDC post-doc fellows were fired, including all in the group who call themselves the "disease detectors," and are the future of public health lab leaders. One senior official told me, "It is going to cripple public health for decades." www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

This is why there’s been so much silence as Black history and Black books are being purged, and integration efforts dismantled. Many Democrats think the purges are valid and necessary. “Candidly, the attack on over-the-top wokeism was a valid attack."

these are the worst people and deserve worse fates than can be comfortably imagined

Times are bleak, it’s true. But people are still out here doing incredible work now, when it matters most. Activists in KY bought land slated for a new prison, and will now fill it with native plants and use it as an intertribal gathering location. 🌱🌎🧪🌿

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.
