If you have no posts, I will block you. I am hopeful the FAFO fallout will leave something we can rebuild from.

"Sometimes life just slips in through a back door and carves out a person, and makes you believe it's all true" -Sara Bareilles

Pete: "The bottom line is, if the economy and the government were working the way they should for most Americans, a guy like Donald Trump and a movement like Trumpism would not have been possible." youtube.com/watch?v=4rHKwHQUa78

here’s a curse word free version of “look it up” as requested by countless teachers and librarians 🥰😘

OMGSame! must be goin'round

And I see absolutely NO REGRETS on that good boy's face

Iknowrigh? It's like "maybe water isn't wet and I only *think* my body needs oxygen since I know I feel better if I take my antioxidant vitamins 🤔"

Same. This is on yall.

@ylepidemiologist.bsky.social is right. You can humiliate and fire us. But we will not stay down. Because we truly believe in our mission. We fight for people. We fight for kids. For the right to survive and the hope to thrive. Goodnight friends. Get some rest. open.substack.com/pub/yourloca...

It matters when it affects them

And they're beautiful

While governmental agencies, generally speaking, should not be run like businesses - absolutely no government or governmental agencies should be run like one of Trump's businesses.

My ability to remain calm or maintain focus is tested daily while I move thru the chaos of this world. I know HurtPeople hurt people and there are those who just want to see the world burn, but the sheer scale of this? *sigh

Law of unintended consequences: why pay money to keep your data off the dark web or for identity protection services when DOGE just pulls it from the Fed Agencies and passes it around to the highest bidder? Elon ruining businesses that aren't even his.

I will celebrate good news when I find it - news.northwestern.edu/stories/2025...

Last night I dreamed about the day in my college senior Strategic Mgmt class when the prof described when a bureaucracy is the most efficient structure for a business. That was when I stopped seeing them as inherently negative. Governments SHOULD be Bureaucracies. How to get other folks to see that?

So Fucking Much THIS

Share if you agree. 🇨🇦 🇲🇽

And can I just type something out loud because I need to say it?

i'm tired of heteps tryna tell me what to feel

I have Maya Rudolph as Dionne Warwick expressing "Show me the receeps! Why would Xi Jinping want to flood my basement and rust my bowflex? To what end? 🎵 TO WHAT END 🎶?" on repeat in my head.

Oh, that's a good idea - let's start with that

yeah but 113 years would actually be more than a century - wait a minute

NEW: Google used to warn you when you were seeing low-quality search results. Then, in the weeks leading up to the 2024 election, the company quietly turned that warning off www.platformer.news/google-data-...

I read the news today. Oh, boy. Bluntly? This La Vida is just a tad too Loca for my tastes.

Painfully well written -

THIS

And there are a loooooot more of us than them.

Generally speaking, absolutes don't exist. There is some good in the most evil person or action. I want to believe that what we will rebuild will be better than what existed before this situation. I also know that no change is without pain.

Didn't have any of this on my Dystopian Future Starter Kit bingo card. I ought to write a strongly worded letter to the Board Games Division of Blamo.

@educatedgay.bsky.social Benny! Why'd you put this orange juice in the refrigerator with just a swallow left in the container?

Wow

FAFO doesn't work when the Bad Thing That Happens is not directly tied to the Dumb Thing You Did. If you can control the messaging and blame the Ds for all the crap that comes from Rs policies, no lesson is learned and the blame is shared. The folks who know already knew.

You think maybe "vote this time and you'll never have to vote again" was about him not running again so who cares, rather than about democracy ceasing to exist? Or was it both?
