if nothing else I hope this era finally makes clear that government is a SERVICE, not a business. everything isn't designed to make money.

The Philadelphia Eagles 🦅 have declined an invitation to the White House to celebrate their awesome victory with this shit ass piece of shit. 💩 This is really America’s team, goddamnit

Evergreen story.

I might need one of those signs, especially if they're effective at warding off people like JKR!

I'm afraid so much damage has already been done to scientific research and social safety nets, Bannon has already destroyed the functioning Federal government. I don't know if I'll live to see an American Renaissance after the seemingly inevitable American Dark Ages. 1/

I'm still not convinced the tournaments need more than 48 teams. Who'd we eliminate if we reduce the tournament to 64 teams, the 7th place finishers in the ACC and the Big-12?

There is no clearer example of @kenwhite.bsky.social's Rule of Goats than these motherfuckers. I'm fairly certain they're sincere in their Nazi ideology, but even if they're just "triggering the libs" they're still goat-fucking Nazis.

The United States Space Force released an image taken from the orbiting Boeing X-37B military spacecraft. The release was made on the DoD media sharing site DVIDS.

C'mon, 2024 YR4, don't be discouraged!

cool as hell

"He keeps using that word. I do not think it means what he thinks it means." ("Truth," in this case.)

How did DoGE fuck up the FAA in the 51st state so quickly?

NEW: The Washington Post has pulled out of an agreement to run an ad in its newspaper criticising Elon Musk. This is despite signing an agreement to publish it. Democracy dies in darkness. Here is the ad. Let’s share it far and wide! Screw the Post.

Run the government like a (completely mismanaged) business, they said…

Hell, yes! I remember this feeling from when I was more active rider, in much better shape.

Trump would tell us to stop looking at thermometers and therefore no records would be broken.

When real world headlines read like The Onion…

He lost 28 lbs before the start of the basketball season under the oversight of his new college coaches. Doing that and coming out fit is an impressive achievement!

This is not a good combination of trending topics 😬

This works out well because I already know all of my favorite restaurants.

I moved about 20 Blue Sky accounts I follow to their own list, because they all consistently post about Important Domestic Political Matters about which I should care but which currently depress me. My Blue Sky feed is now mostly cats and puns.

If you’re an Oregonian who’s glad you stayed home today because of the snow and ice, thank a NOAA scientist! Accurate forecasting by the National Weather Service—part of NOAA—is essential for emergency planning, but that’s under threat by the Trump administration.

Worse, it’s “woke”!

Honestly, until Republicans and other "conservatives" start acting like they care about me, I'm rooting for the asteroid.
