“More than a quarter of the contracts listed by DOGE were actually already paid, the Journal found, saving no money. For instance, DOGE listed $168,000 in savings for terminating a contract with HHS for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit. It had already been fully paid.” Beyond parody.

This is the very definition of cruel and unusual and it's also damning.

It's been so run through pop culture as to seem almost corny, but I need you all to understand with the deepest seriousness available to you that the "First they came for..." thing was to prepare you for this exact moment

Here is your self-care checklist for today and every day! 💚 💙 🩵 💜 🧡 💛 ❤️

O Lamb of God, that takest away the sins of the world, have mercy upon us.

remember how i told you yesterday that i've talked with people who are volcanically angry? boy, do i have a story for you coming on monday.

in giving ourselves we find ourselves

New — State Department employees have been instructed *not* to reply to OPM’s 5 bullet email, per an email I reviewed, saying leadership “will respond on behalf of the Department.”

Are you bored tonight? Send your five accomplishments, maybe your shopping list, or your five thoughts on Elon from the past week to OPM at [email protected].

Hundreds of people mobilized in #Sacramento to take to the streets against ICE. Folks also enjoyed bashing the shit out of a #Tesla cybertruck piñata.

There are more *diagnosed* autistic people because they changed the diagnostic criteria and started diagnosing people other than white boys with autism. Also: 40 years of "awareness" campaigns. That's it. Mystery solved.

I've lived in the South since I was 5. Essentially my entire support system is here. A lot of family. Most of my chosen family. The church I was baptized and confirmed in & love. My favorite restaurants. Favorite bookstores. Favorite places. I voted in every election. I need y'all to understand... 🧵

Just in case.

Friends of Bill W - These are trying times. Please stay the course & don't let Trump/Musk's chaos and cruelty rob you of your progress. Work the program. Practice healthy self care. Be mindful & reach out to your support when you need it. You got this.

I keep beating that "it's that antichrist shit" drum, but like... They keep doing it, so.

NPR reports that the RFK Jr.-led CDC has halted the "Wild to Mild" flu vaccination campaign that promotes flu shots by emphasizing their role in reducing symptoms and severe illness The decision to pull the campaign comes as flu hospitalizations hit a 15-year high, with 50,000 admissions in a week

Well, I don't like that.

I will, with God's help.

We have one day left of work in the garage, and then we'll be ready to bring in the storage unit stuff to sort through it and donate what we aren't keeping. 5 moves, a flood, many health episodes, etc lead to having a storage unit for several years when we only meant to have it a few months.

NEW — The National Treasury Employees Union Chapter 282 just emailed its ~8,000 employee members strongly advising them NOT to reply to the “What did you do last week?” email from OPM/Musk.

I don't believe in accelerationism but if that is a real thing that works we'll find out soon enough

I'm cosigning this.

This is bad. Unambiguously bad. Really bad. Bad.

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

Hey, fellow Episcopalians, are there any TEC affiliated religious communities/convents/monetaries active in Minnesota? ⚓

Praying for the Roman Catholic Pope Francis. If it is God's will grant him a speedy recovery, and if it's his time to pass into glory let God great him as I would like to be greated, warmly. ⚓
