I know there’s a lot right now. But folks need to understand what this means. A suspension this long would mean people living with HIV lose their medicine for months. People around the world lose their PrEP for months, putting millions at risk of getting HIV. Drug-resistant strains could emerge.

JUST IN: President Trump has reportedly signed an executive order targeting trans servicemembers. Everyone who meets our military’s rigorous standards should be able to serve, and thousands of current trans servicemembers have already more than proven themselves. We’ll update you as we learn more.

Trump just withdrew the United States from the World Health Organization. The US is now the only country in the world besides Liechtenstein to not be a member of the organization.

Anti-DEI initiatives are based on fear of "the other," greed because somebody else might get more than you, and/or ignorance. What a shame!! Trump puts federal DEI staff on leave www.npr.org/2025/01/22/n...

Yesterday was filled with anxiety, grief, doom, and impending danger. Today, I dipped my toe into some news and saw Trump is scapegoating the World Health Organization, prioritizing the $ over our climate, and pardoning insurrectionist rioters. The worst part is that none of this is a surprise.

The only surprise here for me is the Village People. Separate music from politics?! Sorry, music can and often is very political, and anyone supporting this felon will not have my support. Here’s everyone performing at the presidential inauguration www.npr.org/2025/01/15/g...

I've had no problem abandoning Twitter, but the thing I'm going to miss the most about leaving Facebook is the events. How does everyone know what's going on in the community without facebook events?

Linux quick tip I picked up today - set an alarm from the command line. This requires having VLC installed, and having a Star Trek red alert klaxon mp3 file: `sleep 15m && vlc RedAlertKlaxon.mp3`

When I finally decided to leave Twitter, I was just going to deactivate my account and hit the road. But the more I thought about it, I didn't want anybody else to grab my old username there and start tweeting. So today I'm using redact.dev/download to just wipe all the content there.

I've tried to only ingest a limited amount of local news since the recent travesty at the polls. However, I had caught wind that one of the many nutjob conspiracy "issues" the new commander in chief would be wasting time/money/energy on is fluoridation of water.

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens. Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”

If you're unsure of why trans people are seriously feeling the need to flee the country, let me lay out four promises that MAGA made that target trans people specifically. Having these occur at a federal level could be truly deadly for many trans people. This is why. A 🧵

Starter packs are genius, but I was surprised there wasn't a list of them for people to find. So I built it: blueskydirectory.com/starter-pack... The website monitors the packs being shared and adds the ones it finds to the database. Missed your stater pack? Message me and I'll get it added.
