chat is it good for a dictionary to be mad at you

This is our city. We’re going to continue following & enforcing the laws to keep all Bostonians safe. And it goes without saying that our police commissioner has my complete confidence & support.

Elon doesn't seem to understand how the federal government works.

We will only be free when every stupid asshole who’s not a straight white man is viewed as an individual stupid asshole and not a representative of their entire demographic

This guy wants the AfD to win in Germany. He wants Pierre Poilievre and the CPC to win in Canada. I don’t know about you, but given the devastation and fascism he’s doing everything he can to create in the United States and beyond, I wouldn’t vote for someone this guy likes in a million years.

The reply email inbox for this “what did you do last week” email is [email protected], so, you know, definitely don’t send them any unrelated messages that would interfere with their ability to carry out Elon’s dumbass bullshit

Two weeks from now the crew of a nuclear submarine are going to see this email and the subsequent one firing them all.

This was the moment, just over a month ago, when the ADL could've put an end to Republicans doing Nazi salutes. They didn't. They chose instead to provide cover by calling it "an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm." Now the sieg heil salute has been normalized. The ADL literally had ONE JOB.

This is horrible for the future of American science and innovation and economic wellbeing and all the things Pitt is not a small institution It has nearly 10K grad students It is where Salk discovered the polio vaccine

I don't have an email address, but in the last week I've worked 6 days on 5 routes serving more than 10,000 people, delivering more than 700 tracked items and more than 10,000 pieces of mail, all while you did ketamine shots with a 19 year old edgelord named Big Ballz and ignored child support pleas

If you're represented by a Republican and you care about the post office, how about flyering outside your local post office. Tell folks about the administration's plan to dismantle USPS and tell them to contact their GOP reps. Include local telephone numbers on the fliers. bsky.app/profile/sylv...

btw, i will tell you this - i have been talking to people all day, and the media is missing, whether intentionally or not, how absolutely, volcanically angry the people who have been fired are, not because they lost their jobs, but because their jobs matter, *to us*

Bear is right. This is the song I'm staying angry with: youtu.be/CCqIxyYrpYY?...

This must have been an incredibly stupid email to get at the intelligence agencies.

purges...

It is sort of wild that, for now at least, Trump’s bizarre McKinley romanticism is probably still only the second craziest political fantasy associated with William McKinley

This doesn't really count all the money not collected because they fired irs agents, downturn of commerce from planes crashing and vacations being cancelled at national parks.

this is an act of unspeakable violence. it benefits no one, it doesn’t move a number on a balance sheet. it only guarantees that every one of these incarcerated transgender people will be tortured.

Cadaver Synod, but for Reagan and Iran-Contra.

We need a push for across the board employment protections for everyone, I don’t think some asshole should be able to demand this regardless of where you work and they’re certainly not allowed to do this if you’re a Fed.

How many child cancer researchers did they fire to pay for this?

Script for calling reps about this: why did the administration cut funding for early detection of one of the most fatal kinds of cancer?

I did not realize that Sun Country airlines was working for the Trump regime ferrying imprisoned migrants to Guantanamo. @suncountryair.bsky.social any comment?

“Harry, I’m going to let you in on a little secret. Everyday, once a day, give yourself a present. Don’t plan it, don’t wait for it. Just let it happen. It could be a new shirt at the Men’s store. Or a 30 mile bike ride on a chilly New England morn, finished with a tasty hot beverage.”

She deserves our support. And as a constituent of @sethmoulton.bsky.social , Seth, you could learn from her integrity.

Gov. Mills showed precisely the sort of integrity in the face of political pressure that the majority of the party currently lacks. More importantly, she did so extemporaneously and without hesitation from a purple state where this isn't a universally popular position. www.maine.gov/governor/mil...

Congrats to Trump’s new picks for top military posts for meeting the job description. You don’t have to say yes, you know.

Station break: time to pay the bills. If you would like a science fiction narrative set in a hopeful far-future aftermath to tech bros and religious nuts taking off for space and leaving a blasted Earth behind to pick up the pieces, may I recommend my Jacob's Ladder and White Space books?

Worst. Episode. EVER.

I'm begging people to remember that 'meritocracy' was coined for a work of satirical fiction. It is not a real thing, and, as the satire suggested, defining 'merit' as a standalone measurable individual quality is impossible.

We're demanding tribute.

Gen-X knows 🤣

This is so many words to say Trump fired the chairman of the joint chiefs because he’s black www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

We did. We ALL Did...🇨🇦 🌎

Not surprised that it's community colleges that are fighting back. Community colleges serve the greatest number of people facing systemic barriers. A large percentage of community college students are the first in their family to attend college.

As the White House turns its sights on the USPS, I want to explain a little bit about Alaska and bypass mail. A lot of times when the media writes about bypass, it is in this context - AK is getting something no one else gets & abusing it. (This is from 2014). /1 www.theguardian.com/world/2014/j...
