Halt Catch Fire is a lousy way to govern.

Photoshop made me smile this morning.

Cabinet Battle #3 was nuts. I think we have our SNL cold open sketch for this week, ideally with Lin-Manuel Miranda.

If you are in favor of open borders for diseases, Trump is your guy. #cdc #kakistocracy www.nytimes.com/2025/02/19/h...

Elon K. Musk: “The left wants to outlaw comedy.” John Mulaney: “There is a horse in the hospital.”

It really seems like the FOTUS is playing a game of “telephone.” He wants to grab a canal, Cliven Bundy told him to seize some more green land, Ross Perot told him to pop the hood and work on the “trans mission.” And, of course, get rid of Pence.

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz reaches back to Tiananmen Square to call on American defiance.

Apparently there was a miscommunication from the White House. The executive order was meant to read, “Get rid of Pence.”

Hat tip to Randall Munroe.

As a product of the public schools and also federal grant-funded research in college and graduate school, I condemn the foolish assault by unelected bureaucrats to defund and weaken the systems that have made this country a leader in science and progress. physicsworld.com/a/us-science...

Few people without a brain worm think that Operation Warp Speed to use government funds to encourage rapid vaccine development and testing was a bad idea. Operation Defund the NSF/NIH/CDC is just like that. In reverse.

It’s hereby pronounced “Doo-Gee.” Spread the word.

Breaking things is easy.

How much did a bet for “Butker, 0 points” pay out?

The Jeep Halftime Show had a Buick GNX centered behind it the entire time. Diss!

“Things a dictator might do to eliminate opposition and consolidate power.”

Reminder: decent people far outnumber the MAGA/TechBro fringe. Tomorrow, there’ll be more of us. Every pushback matters. youtu.be/VLbWnJGlyMU

In 2025, the ten most chilling words in the English language are: “I'm from the government, and I'm here to hurt you.”

The policy lead for CDC's H5N1 response has abruptly resigned. Sources tell me CDC's response to the bird flu pandemic has been severely hobbled by the chaos of the past two weeks.

The right to express the President’s opinion. That’s the MAGA American Way.

I saw Fentanyl Czar do a show at The Painted Lady before they got big, just saying.

DOGE coding.

Time to take my annual HIPAA / PII security training to make sure I’m cleared to access my work computers.

California trades Musk to Texas for Doncic. Good move.

It has been a quiet week in Lake Wobegon, on the edge of the prairie, where Norwegian farmers are waking up to their Lutheran churches being scapegoated for the crime of empathy.

Raise your hand if you voted to have an unelected guy get access to your personal information (SSN, records of payments) and access State Department classified information.

Went to buy a classic Rush album, but they gave me this, and a nickel back, instead.

Be kind. Love one another. Learn about and celebrate black history. Model empathy and caring. Resist hate. Art by Mary Engelbreit, an American treasure.

This sentiment from www.instagram.com/crayolajulia/ resonates with me this week. www.instagram.com/p/CIzM_u5FZT...

“Can you make sure there are no inauguration crowd comparison photos this time?” “Done.”
