Anecdotally, there are a TON of layoffs happening to people in my life right now. I think the jobs report in March is going to be a disaster. The combination of frozen federal grants, AI, and a fad of CEOs following Elon's slash and burn ethos (that last one is just a guess on my part).

Dear OPM FOIA staff - Remember to preserve all of these email responses, as we will be submitting FOIA requests for this consolidated compilation of information on what the entire federal government did last week. Thx - FOIA community

I don't know why it hasn't occurred to me that Elon is looting government data to help build his large language model AI Makes perfect sense

I truly can't believe I'm saying this, but Bill effing Kristol is one of the most powerful voices out there for humanitarianism and good governance. There are a lot of conservative former-Republican voices out there doing the messaging Democrats need to be doing. It's wild.

Republicans are stealing from us

So, I'm getting laid off along with several hundred colleagues. I have a couple months wind-down period before I'm officially let go, which makes me very fortunate compared with most of the company. January was my six-year anniversary here, and I'm working my way through the stages of grief.

The most frightening thing about term 2 has been the way the most powerful people in the world have acquiesced to the stupidest shit imaginable.

We're getting the house painted right now, and the painters took down all the doors to paint and dry. So, I'm walking to the bathroom like There's no doors in this house There's no doors in this house There's no doors in this house

Trying to resist feelings of pure doomerism, but it's tough when it feels like a constitutional crisis is inevitable. Which illegal executive order makes it to SCOTUS first? Do enough Justices have the courage to strike it down? Does Trump have the balls to defy SCOTUS?

Does George Miller have the most bonkers filmography of any director out there? All 5 Mad Max films, The Witches of Eastwick, The Twilight Zone movie, and fucking Babe and Happy Feet.

Today's job report was much weaker than expected. Here's why that's bad news for Joe Biden.

got a busy signal the first two times I called @ossoff.bsky.social Call your senators and urge them to block and obstruct everything they can in the Senate, including the budget and the debt limit increase so the Republicans have to own the damage they are causing. www.reddit.com/r/Georgia/co...
