Several good things are happening according r/fednews so I am going to drop them here. If federal workers are fighting back, how much more us? A thread/

WYOMING: “Thank you, Madam chairman.” “I prefer ‘Mister’ chairman.” “Well you all voted preferred pronouns cannot be compelled speech.”

More of this, please. It's hell or glory now.

Answering some questions: the series covers the first novella "All Systems Red," I'm a consulting producer, and we've been working on it since 2021. (So it seems fast from the timing of the announcements but it has actually taken a million years in me-time.)

Unexpected niche beat for @melissagiragrant.com: Covering the myriad protests happening right now despite claims on social media that 'no one is protesting.'

What I really want to tell my coworker: I realize that you're the main character in your story, but I read sci-fi, not mommy blogs.

$450 in bloodwork and testing later, I find out i have a very healthy dog with very irritated bowels.

Going on 4 hours at the vet emergency room. Mr poopy pants has gone into overtime. Hoping I can get at least 6 hours of sleep before the storm hits tomorrow.

Big crowd at the SF Tesla dealership protesting our unelected overlord. A tiny sign hangs from an upstairs window

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. 🌱🌎🧪🌿

And the Canadian anthem being sung at the Montreal Canadiens games louder than it ever has been before. Quebecois get their frustrations out by screaming at their team. For us to get their attention is Amazing.

This tax season, we're here to remind you about TurboTax's 20-year fight to stop Americans from filing their taxes for free. (Published Oct. 2019)

The stunning Indigenous Canada flag created by Kwakwaka'wakw artist Curtis Wilson. His design for the flag is meant to represent First Nations in Canada to the public. In reflection, with gratitude and humility 🙏.

There's a small contingent of people online who get angry when you say this but: Wikipedia is unquestionably the most successful utopian project of the internet age, and its destruction would be a crime against humanity

It's Flag Day and the Canadian flag turns 60 today. Let's all fly it proudly (and finally reclaim it from the convoy types) 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

A group of 14 states have just filed a lawsuit against Elon Musk and Trump, arguing that the authority granted by the White House to the Musk an DOGE is unconstitutional.

Breaking: A federal judge sides with Washington, Oregon, and Minnesota and has just blocked Trump's anti-trans EO banning care under the age of 19 via a TRO. This is the second federal judge in a row to conclude that the President's EO is likely unconstitutional.

We are in a dangerous time but here are two important facts: 1. Trump's base of support is a minority. 2. That base is going to shrink as his agenda is enacted. The opposition is the majority. No moping allowed. www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/they-are-a...

One of the most noble Americans, perhaps its greatest rhetorician and public speaker, a hero that helped defeat slavery. I’m worried a generation of students may never learn about him

The Stonewall Inn released a response to the National Parks Service removing the word transgender from the park outside of the Inn. A great reminder that we have to look after each other

Rose-Tu’s calf has a name! Meet Tula-Tu 💕

Hearing that @indivisible.org and @moveon.org are pissing off house dems by mobilizing their constituents to call them too much is frankly the single best endorsement I've ever heard for a political action groups.

JUST IN: Federal judges orders HHS, CDC, and FDA to restore “by no later than 11:59 pm” today their websites and datasets to pre-January 30th status. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Once again: The animating purpose of representative democracy is to protect the rest of us from the whims of insane rich people, be they kings or oligarchs. Everything else is wainscoting.

The news remains shit so why not enjoy this video of someone trying to clean a water bowl for tortoises while the tortoises repeatedly try to get in it? (Source: www.instagram.com/reel/DF0jAMl... )

In preparation for today’s Super Bowl in New Orleans, state police forced over 100 homeless men and women onto buses under threat of arrest, dumping them in an unheated warehouse. Tents destroyed, belongings lost. Press are barred from the warehouse. The price tag for this cruelty? $17.5 million

I'm curious how this will play out at work. Our CEO is Hispanic, from Phoenix, with a natural accent. In the hot seat of a top five company in our field. DEI initiatives are still on our company splash page. A large percentage of our customer base are non English immigrants.

“A new analysis by independent automotive blog FuelArc suggests that fire fatalities are 17 times more likely in a Cybertruck than in the infamous Ford Pinto — the posterchild deadly cars if ever there was one.”

This is AMAZING news! Fuck Amazon www.salon.com/2025/01/28/b...

reblogging this for work tomorrow.

The U.S. District Court of Washington, D.C., ruled Thursday morning that Elon Musk and his team of coders have been blocked from further accessing government databases. Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly approved the temporary restraining order. share.newsbreak.com/bco8grvn?s=i16

This is how you respond to a faux removal: "Yeah, sorry, that's not how that works and I remain in my job. Be well"

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

BARGE AWAY

Kinda wishing the Antifa imaginary army they scapegoat for all the shit they do was actually real at this point!!!

Very cool
