An EEOC admin. judge sent a fiery all-department email this AM alleging: 1. Trump's exec orders & instructions to target private citizens with them are illegal. 2. the judge had sent an earlier email with a similar tone yesterday that later vanished from their sent folder & colleagues' inboxes.

The @sarahmackattack.bsky.social signal has been raised:

While I still can… I voted. @kcelections.bsky.social

@jayapal.house.gov @murray.senate.gov @cantwell.senate.gov I’m a constituent and I want you fighting to keep our nation functioning. Go to OPM and protect our federal civil servants from unelected, unauthorized people having access to their PII.

For your consideration @niais.bsky.social @gattakat.bsky.social

Please enjoy these Lunar New Year greetings from a Smöl Orange in a Fancy Hat @erikaishii.bsky.social

Exciting News @funranium.bsky.social ! @gattakat.bsky.social has very kindly Blessed me with Spam Musubi!

Let’s talk about resistance after a conqueror takes power. Specifically let’s talk about this bendy yellow building, and what it shows us about the moment the Florentine Republic finally fell to its kleptocratic/proto-capitalist banking-fortune Medici conquerors 1/?

Excellent thread on thinking about resistance ON THE MARGIN. It’s not an all-or-nothing binary. Trump may win a lot, but he can still win MORE or LESS, and every “less” is someone vulnerable whose life is better. Maybe not perfect, but better. And not everyone. But some. All those margins count.

This seems relevant to your interests @hodieheathen.bsky.social

Some of these GoFundMe's for displaced Black people in So Cal aren't really moving. docs.google.com/spreadsheets... - there's a ton of need.

the way people who don’t have the stones to fight fires themselves are going after women in the LAFD is a fucking joke know what my oldschool, GOP, good old boy fire chief said to me when I mustered up the courage to walk in and sign my pasty little gay ass up? “thank you, here’s your gear”

Reskeet if you think Jesse Singal should be banned.

Think I've quote-skeeted before but I will again. A week ago I was one of those saying I'd pay a substantial amount to keep this site going (it's worth much more to me than the $96/y example in this) I wouldn't pay 50p for a site that's not safe for my trans friends.

Reskeet this until it breaks. Then reskeet it again. We need to flood Congress with phone calls TODAY to make sure they don't slip the dangerous and misguided Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) into a must-pass year end bill. This bill would make kids LESS safe and threatens LGBTQ ppl & human rights.

At least someone in Congress is standing up for trans kids.

Storytime. In 2005, my mom died from cancer, but the real cause was the actions taken by an insurance company 12 years earlier. What happened to her was evil, hard to identify or fight, and hidden from the public by legal mechanisms. Because of that, I have no idea how often it has happened.

@muellershewrote.bsky.social Virtual pod pet tax. Adorable fur babies need new homes in LA!

Every time we see this, we should repost it. Let's make it the anti-fascist version of the "Tom Holland Lip lip syncing to Umbrella in a corset" video: everyone must reshare every time, and no one gets annoyed.

People are not ready for the level of insanity that's coming. A brief list of things that are nearly 100% guaranteed to happen: * Prosecution of Democrats, journalists, and public figures (Fauci) that angered Trump (or Kash Patel) * Court martialing or replacing much of military leadership. 1/n

it's clear now that republican trolls are squatting here. i know it's tempting to engage, but i cannot stress enough that blocking is the only way to preserve this community. block and move on. block and move on. block and move on.

@volts.wtf Check this out!

@volts.wtf @dansavage.bsky.social Relevant to your recent conversation (which I found both simultaneously engaging and depressing!):
