Test your cinematic eye and taste with another year of Matt O'Donnell's (my partner) Oscars Fundraiser/Betting Pool! $10 to enter and you can fill out your ballot here: forms.gle/i4RHT7hyBWAS... 50% of the $ from entries will be donated to the ACLU & 50% goes to the winner (or can be donated too)

From the comments: “If you don’t believe the country has moved to the right why does George Bush sound like a leftist here?”

If this reporting stands up (and it appears confirmed by multiple sources): devastating. The EIS is the front-line SWAT team of disease detection in the US and globally, and also the training ground for new generations of public health workers. No EIS, no boots on the ground for outbreaks. ->

You know Kate Winslet in Contagion? Where she runs into a hot zone, risking her life, so Americans could be safer? She was an EIS officer. That’s who was just fired at CDC today. EIS officers. And many, many more public servants fighting every day for your health.

@mcuban.bsky.social what are your thoughts on Disney changing their DEI initiatives? Given Disney @filmandseries.bsky.social owns Hulu, many are going to be cancelling their subscriptions and unable to watch shows like @sharktanksabc.bsky.social. Our home is one of them.

Margot says that we exhaust her

Everyday I peep at @foxnewscorporation.bsky.social to see if they have finally decided to report on truth and fact, and I’m constantly surprised how much it reads like a TMZ/tabloid. How did they manage to convince Americans they’re a legit news org looking like this? Genuinely curious.

Don't just ask how Musk/Trump actions serve their supposed purposes. Ask how they aid the attempt to seize power paulkrugman.substack.com/p/autogolpe

Despite the false claims from Trump and his GOP minions, the truth is clear: FEMA has been there for North Carolina. The idea of cutting or eliminating FEMA is outrageous. Thanks to FEMA and local governments, North Carolina is on the road to recovery.

Margot says she needs a recharge after moving all weekend. Everyday is #caturday

Snow! In #seattle ❄️💗

We could have had a competent president, lower drug prices, home buyer assistance, a Cabinet filled with qualified adults and not sociopaths, global respect, and national sovereignty...

as we’re seeing the endpoint of the anti-DEI hysteria is just opening the door to rampant employment discrimination

Just in case you were wondering! Lock in!

Rebecca Solnit: “They want you to feel powerless and surrender and let them trample everything and you are not going to let them. You are not giving up, and neither am I. The fact that we cannot save everything does not mean we cannot save anything and everything we can save is worth saving.”

Thank you Joe Biden and Kamala Harris for a wonderful, normal, sane, compassionate 4 years. ❤️

Today we remember Martin Luther King on #MLKDay and the ongoing fight for civil rights in the United States.

Donald Trump ‘saving’ TikTok is the equivalent of an arsonist taking credit for putting out the fire they started.

I can’t stop thinking about the fact that these “real men/women,” “non snowflake,” folks are in fact terrified. Terrified of folks who think, and take action, or who show composure? They claim I’m weak or a sheep but to me they seem so desperate for a an Adonis, a God, or a figure to save them?

In the end, there might be a few things that MAGA/DOGE gets right, over the next 4 years. But at what cost? The part I can’t get over is everything that we are losing. Compassion, dignity, collaboration, community (familial, local and global), physical and mental safety. It will never be worth it
