Any university that voluntarily shutters a DEI program, office or personnel “Because of Trumps Executive Order” is making a PR decision. Not a legal one. Trumps EO does not change anti discrimination law. If anything, the EO is unlawful. Universities should treat it that way.

Raskin: "Elon Musk, you may have illegally seized power over the financial payments systems of the Treasury, but you don't control the money of the American people. The US Congress does that under Article 1 of the Constitution ... we don't have a fourth branch of government called 'Elon Musk'"

This is good. Tell your members of Congress to show up, too.

We are members of Congress at the Treasury Department. We want to be let in to provide oversight on behalf of our constituents. @jasmineforus.bsky.social @sethmagaziner.bsky.social

Crowd keeps growing outside Treasury as Members who were DENIED entry speak

aaaand now it all makes sense

NEW: At least 6 senior FBI officials have been ordered to resign or be fired by Monday. They include those that oversee cyber, national security and criminal investigations. www.cnn.com/2025/01/30/p...

Meta is renewing its threats against employees, telling them today that they will hunt for leakers and tolerate zero leaks. Want to know how that is going? Three Meta employees who I’ve never spoken to before just cold messaged/emailed me offering me to be sources.

The White House has announced tariffs are coming tomorrow. Here's everything that could see a price increase. I broke it all down: open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

California DOE fires back against Trump's executive order: "It does nothing" "It is against federal law for the White House to dictate what educators can and cannot teach" Will not comply.

again this is a full scale attack on constitutional government

He is doing shock and awe deliberately to unhinge and destabilize us. So that we are too frozen and traumatized to fight back. Shore up your inner resources. Do everything you can to stay grounded. Every act gumming up the works counts.

Who governs? The richest man in the world is engaged in a hostile takeover of the machinery of government.

Yesssss

It should not come as a surprise that the 12 American states who have yet to ratify the #EqualRightsAmendment (ERA) were all pro-slavery: Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Utah.

Who wants to bet that this favors Conservatives/Nazis? www.theverge.com/2025/1/8/243...

Michael Fanone live on CNN: "This is what I'd say to Stewart Rhodes: Go fuck yourself"

The last few sentences are terrifying echoes we learned about in history class

Still using Facebook or Instagram? Disable their tracking by following these instructions.

I am pretty vigilant about deactivating invasive Facebook settings and don't have the app on my phone but sure enough it was logging my Internet activity. Luckily you can clear your past records and disable future tracking with these steps.

News Feed Eradicator allows you to keep using Facebook for things like emergency evacuation coordination groups (a main reason i still use it) without seeing the news feed and thus without providing Meta any revenue. chromewebstore.google.com/detail/news-...

I’m so excited!!! One of my Easter Eggers laid her first egg!!!!! 😍😍😍😍

Please know your rights and share them with friends or family that fear they may be deported.

Throwing sand in the gears of terrible machinery is also resisting.

I love this so much! At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions. This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

Spent the morning shoveling snow with my kid. We talked about how--because the world is increasingly stupid, unkind, and selfish--we need to work hard at being curious, kind, and helpful to others. Even if we're just starting with shoveling the walk for our community.

So now for happy, positive content…eh?? I found this jar with the seagrass around it on the side of the road today. It goes perfectly with my other jars in my coastal bookshelf!!

Finally removed Facebook app from my phone. Baby steps.

Sooo Facebook has me & all of my friends AUTOMATICALLY following Donald Trump today. I’m so over Meta right now & trying to decide what to do. This feels so invasive

10:30pm…my husband finally came in…. He skinned a deer & pulled out a transmission after dinner 🙈🤦🏼‍♀️😆 #sweethomealabama

So if any of that’s of interest to you, let’s be BlueSky friends:)

And now we are back in our hometown—something we never ever imagined—in the deep woods of Southern Alabama And we are building a farmhouse. From scratch. Ourselves. With our own bare hands. (Occasionally a friend or family member will help us out). It’s going to be a new-old-farmhouse. 😍

Hello:) I’m an artist and musician & a mother of 3. I’m madly in love with this country boy I met 17 years ago & married 8 years ago. We’ve travelled the world together and even lived with our little family in Costa Rica for a year.

Hello new digital void…. I used to have 20K followers on Twitter but never logged back in after it became X. Facebook is getting sketchy, changes to Instagram’s Notification Center are annoying, and AI images on Pinterest is beyond aggravating . So I’m here. A social media blank canvas.
