I never do bad on my exams, and today I bombed. I’m so overwhelmed with the state of everything i can actually feel the stress in my body and mind. Taking a break, deleting the app for a while, gonna read some books, breathe, remember I’m grateful for my life and do a reset.😮‍💨 I’ll be back. Refreshed

Let's see how many signatures we can get on this Like Sign Repost Repeat We can't protect our wildlife or our parks without the budgets necessary to do so. Will it do any good, probably not, but we can send a message. The world is watching. www.change.org/DeporttheBas...

Okay, in this election you have the lady who wants to make the world incrementally better or the literal antichrist that will destroy everything you’ve ever known. “I WANT WORLD PEACE OR IM NOT VOTING!” That’s isn’t one of the options. “IM NOT VOTING!” 92 days later: “HOW DO WE STOP THIS?!!”

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS

1/ ❗Really chilling. Thanks to Sen. Mark Warner, for releasing Memo from acting deputy attorney general Emil Bove to FBI leadership ordering the purge. -Memo is a clear abuse of power and weaponization of DOJ -Memo bolsters FBI lawsuits filed today. VERY clear the list is for retaliatory purposes

I’m a part time librarian and I just want to echo what I’ve seen other librarians say recently: there is a HUGE uptick in requests for social justice, climate justice, abolition, history, etc books and I just want to say nobody is giving up the fight. If anything people are fighting harder #library

Crockett: “I’m tired of the white tears. If you’re competent you’re not concerned. When you compare me to Greene/Boebert there’s no comparison… The only ppl crying are mediocre white boys beaten out by people that had to work much harder.” Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DFp8K0M...

NEW: DoJ employees asked for guarantees in writing for the deferred resignation Fork in the Road plan. They were sent this. It strips the signer of the right to sue, and also says if you commit a felony, you’re not eligible for federal employment. Oh, the irony.

If your article contains critical information that every American should know about our crumbling democracy and the evil infiltrating our government, and it sits behind a paywall, you suck. You deserve to make money for your work, but ask for donations. People who can pay will pay if it’s important.

They have gained access to multiple sensitive internal systems, including a financial aid dataset containing the personal information of millions of students enrolled in the federal student aid program.

The executive branch does not have the legal right to cancel appropriated spending or eliminate agencies created by Congress. Trump and Musk are doing both. Entirely lawless and unconstitutional. The world's largest provider of food assistance shut down. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out. This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

The broad halt in foreign assistance, coupled with limitations to and a lack of clarity around humanitarian waivers, has already resulted in the loss of lifesaving medical humanitarian aid and harmful impacts on patient communities. www.doctorswithoutborders.org/latest/freez...
