People being rude to service workers is a red flag both in needlessly being a dickhead to someone but also in that you can tell they appreciate it when you make their work a little easier and who doesn’t want that shit? That shit feels amazing. A waiter being happy? That shit makes your weekend

a new agency made of teenage neonazis and drug dealers is in charge of the entire government. the richest man in the world, who gave a nazi salute at the president's inauguration, says he is in charge. officially, he isn't. the government won't tell the courts who is in charge

it frustrates me how often trans women think our value is based on if we martyr ourselves. we don’t need anymore martyrs; the state takes too many of us as it is. what we need is more trans women who grow old. elderly matriarchs talking shit & drinking together on a porch as our grandkids play.

Honestly, looking at this externally, it still doesn't quite feel like solidarity has really clicked with people in the US at the moment. It's quite possible for the regime to be motivated by sexism and racism and transphobia and by Elon Musk's ket benders at the same time

The SAVE Act is specifically designed to disenfranchise a ton of American women. Let us recall how many of the techbros now infiltrating the American government, like Peter Thiel, believe that women shouldn’t be allowed to vote.

Married women who have changed their names — get a passport now if you can. Even if you never plan to travel out of the country. If this trash passes — it is my understanding that a passport in your married name is sufficient ID for voting.

There has long been a consistent minimization of and even sneering at attention to the misogynistic aspect of fascism by the mostly white dudes who specialize in talking explicitly about extremism and fascism.

I feel like a major dead angle on the part of these guys is always that they’re incapable of conceiving of anyone reacting to their destructive bullshit in any way other than screaming and crying and throwing up Anger, contempt and scorn, effective organizing—it’s just beyond them

I am inundated with messages from federal workers who are feeling frantic, furious and fed up after receiving Musk’s email and reading his threatening X post. The psychological warfare is the point.

I have heard from workers at multiple agencies that they have been advised by managers not to respond to Musk’s email. Some didn’t say why, others said they’re waiting on guidance from agency leadership—but we can guess what they’ll say.

There’s this faith that if you do the right things, then you are healthy. Ergo, anybody that is sick or disabled did the wrong things. It’s not grounded in fact or reality, and it’s essentially a religion. It’s just that instead of a deity, health is worshipped.

Also note the context of some bad polling numbers for Musk, a few GOP in Congress raising a few questions, and another story or two of "WH insiders and Cabinet Secs worried and unhappy about Musk". Trump is really doubling down on Elon, not throwing him overboard.

Just a reminder that the neither the U.S. Digital Service (which has been converted into DOGE) nor OPM has any legal authority to direct every single federal government employee to give them a job summary. Literally no such authority at all.

The DOGE gang that can't shoot straight: If this is true, it means that not only have the DOGEbros sent an email with a demand of questionable legality to all executive branch workers, but they have sent it to judicial branch employees who are constitutionally beyond their reach.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Please assume that they are going to feed all the email responses into an LLM to sort through them, instead of actually reading them. If you know any clever "ignore previous instructions" prompt injections, now might the time to use it.

when you reach out for support, and the other person is asleep, the incoherence of their first response can be taken as a measure of how much they valued getting back to you over making sense. This is an indication of care.

I can’t believe we’re still having this argument. Comorbidities are not hard to grasp. Yes, grandma had chronic heart problems, but she probably would have lived another 10-15 years on her heart meds had she not gotten COVID. Her death is a tragedy and these guys want to piss on her grave.

So if you get that OPM email, my only advice is to recognize (1) it is asking you to give them an excuse to fire you (2) it will be processed by an LLM. If you want to leave, good luck to you, thank you for your service. If not, reply in a way designed to not give their LLM bot those free excuses.
