Holy shit. “I confess that I’ve been inadequate. That the Democrats have been responsible for allowing the rise of this demagogue.” Gives an impassioned apology and points to this as a moment of personal vow to action.

Have done that and would recommend 👍🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Ooo I need to do this for my desk at home

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

the rest of you may have depression but I've solved all of my issues by buying a costco sized chunk of parmigiano reggiano and every so often at 1am opening the fridge and prying off a chunk to gnaw on like a medieval rat

Looking for some trans+ rep that’s out of this world? 🥁 We do tend to get fewer scifi titles on our StoryGraph suggestions, so if you have more suggestions, we’d love to hear them. (Especially if they’re indie!) #booksky #trr25 #transrightsreadathon

Ohhhh noooooooooo oh we are so screwed www.wired.com/story/doge-r...

My fiancé is among those impacted by layoffs. After two years on a team he loved at Block, he’s now looking for his next opportunity. If you know of any openings in Developer Relations or Frontend Development, please send them my way. Thank you 🫶🏾

The Tufts graduate student detained by federal authorities in Somerville has been sent to a Louisiana detention facility, despite a federal judge’s order telling US Immigration and Customs Enforcement not to remove her from Massachusetts without notice.

This is Rex. His ears have been pretty itchy due to an infection and needed a special medicated cleaning. Needless to say, it hit the spot. 13/10

Right now there are a lot of new eyes on Signal, and not all of them are familiar with secure messaging and its nuances. Which means there’s misinfo flying around that might drive people away from Signal and private communications. 1/

Cthulhu is much loved by the neighborhood kids so it’s important that he be dressed appropriately at all times.

I'm at a community meeting with my excellent state rep so I figure I will live post it #mapoli
