In this 4-part series 👀 we see the darker side of egg pricing. Thanks for keepin it real 🐣 @sylvanaquafarms.bsky.social 🍳💸🤑🥚 #resist (1/🧵👇)

THIS IS HOW YOU STAND UP: EEOC admin judge Karen Ortiz resisted an order to hand over all LGBT cases for “review” and told colleagues to resist too. She knows she’ll likely to be fired. “I can exist on cornflakes and community if it means that my soul is intact.” www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/u...

Heh heh heh… I have a feeling r/MaliciousCompliance is about to be packed to the brim with stories

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.

Today’s history lesson: Rear Admiral Grace Hopper. Software engineer. Nerd. Tech pioneer. Came up with the term “bug” to refer to computer errors when she found a literal moth inside one machine. Absolute BAMF. #WomensHistory #AmericanHistory #history #technology #bug #GraceHopper

Fellow Labyrinth fans! You’re welcome. …what? We need some joy right now. #Labyrinth #DavidBowie #YouRemindMeOfTheBabe

‼️CAUTION! DON’T LOG IN TO CHECK IF IT IS NOT YOUR SCHEDULED TIME TO WORK. Word is Federal Employees are getting an email from some douche to report in each week’s activity or you are resigning by not responding. They will use this op to look for insiders. Wait until Monday. #resistsafe

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.

Information was shared illegally. A career employee at the Social Security Administration provided unauthorized access to data to Elon Musk’s staffers. This employee, Leland Dudek, a data analyst, was recently promoted to acting commissioner by Trump.

This episode of Drunk History covers Mary Phelps, Bessie Coleman, and Gloria Steinem. Three BAMFs. I swear, I’ve learned more from #DrunkHistory than all of my time in public school and college. #BlackHistory #WomensHistory #AmericanHistory #history #MaryPhelps #BessieColeman #GloriaSteinem

DOGE’s expenses have risen above 40 million, with weekly costs now exceeding 10 million. We will release an updated DOGE staff list soon.

Hey DOGE bros - found some of that wasteful spending you were looking for. How many gov employees could have kept working and feeding their families with the estimated $2.5M this stunt cost?

“We had to erase trans people or we couldn’t get our federal funding” Fuck the federal funding. You fight, you sue, you do not become complicit in our mass erasure. We are all in this together, and we all go down together. I will not allow us to be jettisoned or erased.

Eartha Kitt didn't fuck around. When the subject of juvenile delinquency came up at a luncheon, Kitt spoke up: "...there is a war going on that they don’t understand... You send the best of this country off to be shot and maimed. They rebel in the street." #EarthaKitt #BlackHistory #WomensHistory

So, Dr Carver didn't invent peanut butter. But he did come up with over 300 uses for peanuts. He also suggested planting peanuts and soybeans to replenish nitrogen in barren earth. Many of his other experiments yielded interesting uses for sweet potatoes. #BlackHistory #GeorgeWashingtonCarver

Because I’m just a few followers away from 1000, and because HISTORY, MUTHAFUKKAS! #MarshaPJohnson #history #AmericanHistory

WE COULD HAVE HAD THIS GUY WE COULD HAVE HAD A MR ROGERS-TYPE DAD AS OUR VP Tim Walz is the type of guy who would have fought for single parents to get all the help they need, for kids in poverty to be fed, and would have spent his free time making videos telling kids how to make tyre swings.

Can't remember if we went over Mama Marsha already, but she's a legend so... #MarshaPJohnson was a #transgender woman and activist. She and Sylvia Rivera weren't at Stonewall, but they did establish STAR House and took care of many #LGBTQIA+ youth. #BlackHistory #TransgenderHistory #WomensHistory

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

To clarify: If you’re a veteran and DOGE has caused you harm, follow this link. Also, fuck Musk.

I am not making this up: Republicans have introduced legislation… to increase your bank fees.

A top Social Security Administration official resigned after clashing with Musk staffers over access to sensitive personal records. They sought entry into an internal system containing Americans’ private data. Thank you, Michelle, for resisting—and for your 30 years of service.

Figured I’d branch out to the Clock App with some #history lessons, and that I’d start with Lucille Ball, because she was a #legend. #WomensHistory #LucilleBall #AmericanHistory

Sir Lady Java. Entertainer. Activist. Absolute legend. Trailblazer for #transgender rights. Sadly, we lost her in November 2024, but we will honor her memory and continue to work toward a better future. #BlackHistory #LGBTQIAHistory #WomensHistory

🚨🚨 NOTICE🚨🚨

If judges and Congress are just ignored, sooner or later, someone is going to have to lay hands on Trump and his oligarch crew and lead them away in handcuffs. It has to happen sooner or later. Sooner is much better. #3E

Goodnight friends. We leave you with this excerpt from Amanda Gorman’s “The Hill We Climb”. Full text here: thehill.com/homenews/new... #Blackhistoryisamericanhistory

I didn’t know anything about Elisa Rae Shupe until today. They were a nonbinary veteran. We lost them on January 27. They left behind a note; in this video I read it aloud. Elisa’s story needs to be told. Their letter needs to be heard. #nonbinary #transgender #veteran #ElisaShupe #RIP

Prepare

How about we take a moment and just share memes and screengrabs that bring us joy? Drop yours in the comments. I'll start with this screenshot from one of my favorite animated shows, Archer. Also, Pam Poovey is my hero. 🥰 #memes #screenshots #fun #MomentOfJoy #PamPoovey

Hey friends, just read this helpful article on Reddit. afsa.org/virtual-go-bag

This is the way.

This has been in my head all day. So here you go!

From r/MurderedByWords IFL Reddit sometimes.

Consider submitting FOIA requests to science agencies to get unpublished data before its lost. Who knows what will happen once DOGE fires all the science staff and takes over the computers? Data could vanish.

Oh, hai. You should take this class. Because Dr Anderson is a really amazing teacher. If I juggle my schedule I might join in the fun, too!

Protestors outside of Tesla in Austin, Texas. (📷 @jennakingtv) "Elon stop taking over, you are not President" "Love Your Neighbors" "Musk is the Fraud" "Deport Musk" "Drive Musk out" "No Nazis in my city." #3E #EndOligarchy #TeslaTakeover #TeslaProtests

Was reminded today of Onesimus and how he taught Cotton Mather what is essentially vaccination. Back then it was called variolation. Either way you look at it, Onesimus's story needs to be shared. #BlackHistory #Onesimus #vaccination #science

CEASE ALL DISCOURSE AT ONCE AND RECEIVE MY DIGITAL DOLLARS

The Twitter collapse but with nukes.

The Trump regime is not the legitimate government of the US; Musk is not an elected official. This is a coup d'état enabled by inaction and secret (not so secret) interests (corruption) among the officials entrusted to protect the country. When all levels of protection fail, there is only you left.
