Guess it's all VRBO for me from here out. www.yahoo.com/news/airbnb-...

There are many veterans with disabilities. They are included in DEI. Americans with disabilities warn protections are vanishing in Trump's DEI rollback www.axios.com/2025/02/23/t...

i think this is basically what has happened a big chunk of the american pundit class

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Standing up for science means standing up for knowledge, for democracy, for liberty, and for America. If you're based in Texas, rally with us on March 7th at 4pm at the Texas State Capitol. If we stand together, we will defeat the forces of tyranny. Also I bought a Beaker costume.

Well this is interesting.

Any talk you hear from the current administration about making the US more competitive in science and technology is utter bullshit. What they are doing is sabotaging our country for years if not decades to come.

Disenfranchising women is a key project of Christian nationalism.

trillion dollar industry that will revolutionize everything

El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside down—the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.

On the other hand, Musk actually works for Tesla shareholders, who should definitely demand emails like this from Elon.

I am just a gal standing in front of the entirety of Bsky asking them to use Alt Text so that in addition to being accessible on a basic level, when you are shaming, those who need to be dragged, have earned that mocking: I can still suppress those smug mugs via my choice to use mute word.

This was such an excellent documentary. I remember learning about Hazel Scott in my undergrad uni Intro to Jazz class. But this takes a deeper dive into her life that gives her flowers long overdue, with a number of stellar contributors and commentators.

Upcoming dates of protests: 2/28: Economic blackout 3/4: 50501 protests AND @aftunion.bsky.social's #ProtectOurKids day of action 3/7: March for Science protests

I'll be chatting with three Let This Radicalize You reading groups over the next few weeks. @prisonculture.bsky.social and I wrote the book to help people who are showing up for moments like this one, and it means a lot to me that folks are eager to discuss it. You can get a discounted copy here:

The whiplash is real. There was a PRO-congestion pricing march in NYC yesterday. Apparently all that we needed to get New Yorkers to support congestion pricing was a Trump attack.

New — State Department employees have been instructed *not* to reply to OPM’s 5 bullet email, per an email I reviewed, saying leadership “will respond on behalf of the Department.”

Guy who doesn’t even respond to the mothers of his children: reply to my email or you’re fired

DOGE is like if Fyre Festival was a government agency.

Posting my embroidery so people can find me... 🐯 #embroidery #handembroidery

“You won’t have to vote again”

That didn't happen. And if it did, it wasn't that bad. And if it was, that's not a big deal. And if it is, that's not my fault. And if it was, I didn't mean it. And if I did, you deserved it- Narcissists Prayer

This isn't new news? Musk killed the bill at the end of the last Congress that had the Telehealth extenders past March 31, 2025 (and PBM reform)

About 7,000 employees are expected to lose their jobs at the tax agency, according to a person familiar with the decision.

It’s Trump’s second term and he still doesn’t know the difference between Medicare and Medicaid.

We’re about to begin our weekly conversation. We hope to see you in a few minutes. 👇

NEW: A first-of-its-kind analysis by @propublica.org found that the sepsis rate in second-trimester pregnancy loss hospitalizations increased by more than 50% after Texas’ near-total abortion ban went into effect in September 2021. www.propublica.org/article/texa...

So just straight up threats and intimidation now from the Department of Justice to sitting members of Congress who oppose Musk or Trump. We are about to see sitting members of Congress and others arrested by the FBI by the end of the week at the rate things are going.

I don't generally go out into the public timeline and fuck with people unless I'm certain they'd be into it. But when they show up in my replies, they get what they're askin' for. Most notoriously, that time a magazine editor ended up on the back cover of my book being a jackass.

The big problem with this outside of everything else Is that people expect you to constantly feel bad for people who not only don’t listen to you but also Insulted you for giving the warning And then expect to be healed and coddled ahead of you

Hard truth: people who were cool with watching how Black people were exclude pre DEI expect to be prioritized now and are gleeful in saying they want to be offline etc because they still think Black people HAVE to put up with them

Librarians at Department of Defense-run schools, which educate 67,000 children of American military members, have been instructed to remove books that reference “gender ideology” or DEI. Among the titles flagged for review is Hillbilly Elegy by JD Vance.

This is why honest diligent reporting is so important. It actually starts to give others the ability to act when they may have more power to exert.

Interesting. So not "killing Medicare" but definitely making sure the most disabled people can't use it. But if you remove mail in ballots, they aren't voting either, so who cares, I guess? This way, able-bodied people still keep their Medicare and can look down on those folks who are receiving

BREAKING: The Trump administration has announced that it will kill Medicare coverage of most telehealth services on April 1st.

Class war against poor, disabled, and working people being waged by the world’s richest man.

At our local water easement, we get to see herons and egrets regularly. Egrets have such funny feet. Not the best photo, but I love these water ripples. #PhotographersUnited #NaturePhotography

Me at 5:22pm: what a total loss. 300 miles and not even a usable bird picture. Me at 5:28pm: THIS IS THE BEST WEEK OF MY LIFE

After that plane literally flipped upside down after smashing into the runway and 100% of people survived, I hope every person who ever said “what’s even the point of seatbelts on a plane” feels like a real doof.
