This is a concentration camp. They are describing a concentration camp.

They will call you hysterical. They will say you are paranoid. They will tell you that it is not that bad. This is their deadliest weapon: the gentle suffocation of your moral imagination. ⬇️

The employee is Gavin Kliger. He’s been named by multiple large news orgs. Not sure why NBC won’t.

Administering electric shocks to people in the adjacent room and hesitating when the screams get too loud. Thankfully there's an authority figure here reassuring me that it's ok to continue

This is shocking. Married women: this is a must read! We need to be aware of these alt tactics to make sure women lose their voice - and vote substack.com/@allisonhilt...

Liberals are quick to mount the "kindness" argument on immigration, and then they say our economy depends on them. It's none of that. Our government spent the last 100 years sabotaging their democracies, stealing their resources, and destroying their environment. They have every right to be here.

Yet another plane crash on Sean Duffy’s watch— and the *5th* since Trump “ended DEI madness and restored excellent and safety within the FAA.” 1 dead and 4 hurt after a plane crashes in Scottsdale.

saw another skeet full of replies from white liberals saying we should leave people in red states to die millions of Black, brown, and poor people live in red states and either don’t want to leave or can’t leave. disrespectfully, fuck all of you who leave people to drown. gross.

I cannot stress ENOUGH how important it is to read this article in FULL. 📌 or save at @bookmarkit.bsky.social Please share and like.

I love any idea from a high person becoming a reality

"Well, we *would* have used the one tool left in our tool box to try to stop the systematic dismantling of the entirety of the US government to give unlimited power and control to a bunch of racist assholes... but then the other guys might not like us at the next House softball game."

"With Donald Trump back in the White House, access to contraception is, sadly, not something that people can bank on anymore — whether they know it or not. This issue didn’t get much airtime during the chaotic 2024 campaign, but birth control has been in conservatives’ crosshairs for years."

Apropos of nothing, a toothpick that's *accidentally* put into a door lock and snapped off flush doesn't hurt anything but the door will be inoperable until someone pries it out with tweezers. Which can take a little while.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau literally exists to protect consumers from predatory financial institutions. It's returned over $21 billion to 205 million consumers. The sole result of this move is that Americans will have no recourse when they get screwed over by a bank. Good work Elon 👍

Hey #Booksky if you’re in the US and looking to step away from the zon for physical books can I highly recommend Thrift Books? They donate and partner with non-profits to support school libraries in underserved areas, and prison libraries. Plus, the book prices are *very good* www.thriftbooks.com

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

Until Musk and his DOGE team are arrested, and we can see what information has been stolen and what code has been rewritten, they will not stop.

NEW: "According to sources familiar with the situation, on Weds, NOAA employees were ordered to grant Rajpal editor access to all NOAA Google sites on instructions of the acting Commerce secretary" @timmarchman.bsky.social and @hudsongiles.bsky.social have the scoop: www.wired.com/story/doge-e...

Okay, let's keep going. Got another one today looking at just how absolutely fucking crazy it is that an inexperienced Musk-lackey is apparently pushing untested live code to America's checkbook. Tried to contextualize all of it. www.techdirt.com/2025/02/05/a...

Include disabled people in your resistance planning. In many ways we’re built for resistance, as we have to find creative and sustainable ways to survive every single day. This is the time for intersectionality and community care. We need to work together and save one another.

Don't wait to stand up for disability rights until you become disabled yourself

Excellent new details about the shenanigans at GSA in this scoop from @annamerlan.bsky.social www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

If you have the time and you’re close enough to their physical offices, go there to express your complaints in person.
