Hi hello if you need me I’m going to be processing the phase “we shared vessels” for the next 3-5 business days and I’ll get back to you at some point after that. #Severance

I reviewed the first four episodes of Yellowjackets S3 for @thewrap.com. This show remains a very fun watch, and the cast continues to be absolutely top-tier. I just wish it would actually tie up a loose thread every now and then instead of only spooling out more. www.thewrap.com/yellowjacket...

Fig would like to know if you’ve called your reps today If the answer is yes, she’s really proud of you. If the answer is no, she wants you to know you can do this. She believes in you.

Everything about this is horrible. So many people (including several in my household) cannot function without SSRIs. They help with focus, emotional regulation, executive function, sensory overload, anxiety. This is just cruel. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Scoop: The databases powering DOGE.gov are insecure, and people outside the government have already pushed their own updates to the site to prove it: www.404media.co/anyone-can-p...

When you hear “Make America Healthy Again” please remember who the Nazi’s targeted first. They wanted to make Germany healthy and “pure” The Aktion T4 program mass murdered people with disabilities. They tested the gas chambers on us. Please do not obey in advance. Speak out. Save lives.

Boosting this at a busier time of day. Does anyone know anything? To be clear, I’m asking about the man/group behind this planned boycott. Here are just a few of the images I’ve seen shared about it. I don’t need info about the boycott itself; my question is about the organizer(s).

I may be stepping into a minefield but does anyone know ANYTHING about the founder of The People’s Union, John Schwarz, outside of the fact that he’s behind the 24-hour economic boycott at the end of the month? Screenshots from his “About” page on TPU’s site below. 1/3

I was able to leave a voicemail for both my TN Senators’ D.C. offices when I called this morning but by the time my husband called this afternoon, their voicemail inboxes were full 😎

I'm about to drop some random scripts and carousels tonight. It's not going to be as orderly as I normally am; there's just a LOT going on. But follow this thread. Script 1: RFK has made it through committee. CALL. YOUR. SENATORS. We have to do everything in our power to defeat him.

My husband called our House Rep’s office about the unelected billionaire infestation in the Treasury and the staffer actually tried to *argue with him* If this happens: “I am not going to argue with you. Please do your job and pass my message on to my representative.” Then hang up.

All, there's a lot going on, but we can't ignore Democratic politics and how we build for our future. FWIW: I'm going to endorse Faiz for DNC Chair. I've had the honor of working with Faiz, and he's the type of leadership we want and need right now.

remember stuff like this when they tell you that diversity means a lowering of standards

OpenAI right now

Morning, all. RFK's confirmation hearings start today. Call. Because do we really want a low-rent medical villain to be the head of HHS?

🚨 BREAKING: OMB has just issued a memo *rescinding* the previous memo freezing all federal financial assistance programs. Full text, per government source:

This is grossly irresponsible reporting by the AP. What’s being offered is not a buyout. The deal is if you agree to resign in September you can continue working remotely until then. There is no buyout or severance.

LLMs have been proven time and time again to be rife with misinformation so I have no idea why anyone purporting to call themselves a serious journalist would utilize it at all. Disappointing.

Pay. Attention. To. This AND CALL YOUR REPS.

Yes, this should alarm the hell out of us. Please call your reps.

IDK who needs to hear this but for the next however-long-it-takes for us to claw our way out of our current sinkhole, no one has to feel guilty for sleeping in or grabbing naps. Sleep is how our bodies recover, and we’re going to need a lot of recovery to get through… *gestures at everything*

Funny, one could argue the U.S. doesn’t have nearly enough

Watching Hundreds of Beavers, and I mean this with my whole heart… what is happening (I love this.)

Gonna have nightmares about the new Severance intro

“We have no punishments at Lumon.”

MONDAY — It’s #2025Pit Are you an unagented writer who has completed a manuscript? Are you in search of a literary agent? Great, on Monday I’m hosting a pitch event here on BlueSky I hope will connect authors & agents who may like to work together. How does this work? Glad you asked!

Really wish there was a way to add folks to starter packs directly from their profiles. Having to type each username individually into a search bar is decidedly inefficient.
