🧵 It’s Sunday morning, and eggs are still expensive, so here’s a pro baking tip: You can replace eggs with baking soda & vinegar. This works really well for pancakes (and even cakes, muffins, and quick breads). Here’s how ⬇️ (1/4)

From an FDA probationary employee: the firings are coming from outside the agency without cause and with zero input from supervisors (as promised.) More firings expected between now and Tuesday. Do not open the termination email before you download your documents and performance evals.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

ATTN FEDERAL WORKERS: I’ll say this again: download all your SF-50s, performance evals, and your eOPF. Now. Print hard copies. And make sure you file an informal grievance with your supervisor within 15 days of any adverse action. Here is a template: www.muellershewrote.com/p/informal-g...

One of the funniest pranks ever pulled was a mega popular movie telling an entire generation of American kids that the crane kick was unblockable. I saw it fail at recess

Michelle Christie has dedicated her life to helping deaf kids and their families through the organization she founded No Limits For Deaf Children. She lost everything in the fires. Since I posted her GoFundMe, 114 of you have donated. Thank you! Click Here To Donate: https://bit.ly/40xf2D5

Hundreds of Mexican firefighters have arrived in Southern California to help combat the wildfires. Thank you, Mexico🇺🇸🇲🇽

These L.A. restaurants and coffee shops are staying open to shelter evacuees, offering discounts and, in some cases, free food to evacuees and first responders to the numerous ongoing fires in Southern California.
