Dear manager, this week: 1. Cut my life into pieces 2. This is my last resort 3. Suffocation 4. No breathing 5. Cut my arm bleeding

WSJ's analysis of the fraudulent claims about savings that DOGE is making comes to similar conclusions NPR did earlier: $2.6B v $2B of real savings. But it also notes how much of the cuts are research focused. It also notes that JUST 2% would go to DEI. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

OK honest question what is the root of this? Is this just how you think on drugs?

This is the first part of Character Limit that made me laugh so hard I had to put my phone down

enraged the Boer took this from us too

“I think you’ve overestimated your contributions, and underestimated your blessings” I will use this sentence on some deserving soul before I depart this mortal coil #Severance

Just got reminded that Popes get to choose new names when they become popes so basically what you’re telling me is they get drag names????

My life is very weird now

Good time to yell at T-Mobile.

As someone who’s been blocked by a journalist each from the New York Times and the Washington Post, I think we can say their tolerance for even mild criticism from readers is quite low.

Just putting his filthy hands on a woman in front of everybody because she was sitting and talking.

Elon Musk is rerunning his Twitter takeover “strategy” with the federal government, firing tons of people for no good reason and making everybody who’s left debase themselves and knuckle under to justify their continued employment.

Ah, the federal slave catchers are back in Boston just 165 years after we thought we’d gotten rid of them.

Speaking of “Ted Cruz will no longer be safely able to vacation in Cancun if this keeps up”

Sorry, liberals. Kamala Harris stood for election, the voters evaluated her, and they passed. That's why Elon Musk gets to rule your life for the next four years.

In November, they voted for Trump. In February, he laid them off. For the next election, they're thinking Trump.

Between the oceans and the landmass, I doubt the USA would be invaded any time soon But if I were in the invading business, hacking these emails for a quick assessment of what's going on in the government just before launching a decapitation strike seems like a no-brainer

An Opus Dei priest converted me to Catholicism two weeks ago. Here's who I think the next Pope should be.

This is insanely misogynistic, depraved shit.

Absolutely agree.

This is like Game of Thrones except all 340 million of us are attending the Red Wedding.

The country is not on a good path.

The US is having its Brexit moment, except ours can end up in another civil war.

Fantastic.

Fantastic news. More countries should do the same.

🤣🤣🤣 Had dinner with a good friend that works a lot and isn't on social media like that, and has just come back into the country. I explained the "Ukraine minerals for protection" racket, and the "Canada, join the family for protection or suffer the consequences" scam, and they were in shock!

More of this please, Dems (Aside: is Senator Smith the first Senator to actually grasp what's going on? Ds have AOC/Crockett/Frost in the House, but this is the only Senator I can recall whose posts don't read like a college debating society)

They're not going to evaluate the responses. They're going to use the responses as fresh training material for Grok AI

Temperature's rising.

Husband emailed [email protected] with a limerick in five bullets that included "And Musk can gargle my balls." I didn't see it all, but I heard him read that last line out loud.

Turn this up!

💥The Netherlands' largest pension fund, has sold its shares in Tesla, Meta, and Alphabet (Google). The fund with US $569 billion equivolent in assets is "directing more money to companies and projects that help to improve society and the environment." #Divest www.reuters.com/markets/euro...

A downstream implication of this article is that Kathy Hochul is an even worse governor of New York than previously understood. By leaving Adams in place with ✌🏾more oversight✌🏾the foreign corruption gravy train could help him get re-elected.

I've been thinking about why we haven't seen a 2017-like national revulsion from the collective left to Trump. One spiritual factor is that Democrats have lost moral high ground not just on Gaza but also on immigration, homelessness, and a refusal to make full-throated defenses of trans people.

NEW: An email sent to several US agencies this evening—including those handling classified work—demands workers send 5 accomplishments from the past week. “The memo…closely resembles a note Musk sent to Twitter staff in June 2023” @zoeschiffer.bsky.social has the scoop: www.wired.com/story/doge-e...

I got home from our trip and boy did I CLEAN the humidifiers. Our humidifiers are CLEAN and ready to help us endure the THREAT of FASCISM.
