Everybody keeps asking why they had a DEI event and it sounds more like a humiliation ritual than anything else

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Over the weekend, the Department of Education threatened to pull federal funding from public schools that don’t dump DEI by the end of the month Though the letter lacks the force of law, advocates are warning about this latest attempt to squash diversity efforts

I think it’s important to analyze this activity in terms of power: 1. They are threatening current & future federal employees about what happens if they don’t follow orders 2. Creating openings for loyalists 3. Creating opportunities for privatization 4. Raiding for resources, money and info Etc

Language changes when people communally agree to make to the change. We shouldn’t refuse all changes in language (many things should be changed/updated/more inclusive) but as this 🪡 states, know the reason WHY and consider if that warrants a change in your personal vocabulary. 47 + friends do not.

This is where we are now: An elementary school at Fort Campbell has removed all books from its library that so much as allude to slavery or the civil rights movement. The wholesale erasure of history in real time.

Feels like we all need to add as much pro-social, Mr Rogers like activity as possible just as a homeostatic response to all the ambient evil floating around right now. Anyway I just signed up to read with little kids on Wednesday mornings before work.

I started listening to RAYE after her Grammy performance and I can’t believe Oscar Winning Tears is where the “would you go ahead would you go ahead” meme comes from… that’s how untapped in to internet pop culture I’ve been. SMH.

Outlets really need to figure out how they’re going to deal with this. Many are bending the knee (in part bc of wealthy owners) but it won’t just be for the somewhat silly stuff. Any criticism will face the same probably as early as next week.

I know the “strategy” at play here with this admin is just fear and chaos… but is laying off thousands of federal employees at once not just creating a situation in which thousands more people have nothing to lose in resisting your tyranny?

Do you remember that time Pence tried to see Hamilton and the cast called him out. Or when McConnell was chased out of a resraurant and not allowed a peaceful meal. Or when Cruz abandoned Texas during the deep freeze and we shamed him into going home. That. Do that.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.
