Hello, Blue Sky! For my first post, I wanted to wish everyone as much peace as a sleeping polar bear in summer time 💜

Not sure a "strongly worded letter" is the action required here.... as an outsider.

Is... wait a minute... is this report indicating that Democrats sent a strongly worded letter? In response to beyond-Watergate-level corruption? Is that what we are down to, now? Strongly worded letters?

Read the real stories about what USAID cuts mean, not the Musk propaganda www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/o...

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

Posting my embroidery so people can find me... 🐯 #embroidery #handembroidery

If you want to read the book apparently all the New York Times tech reporters are talking about today—by way of asking, “Seth Abramson wrote a book?” and “What's Google?” and “Can I learn about what books authors wrote using the Google?”—it’s below. (Odd how many NYT employees hate NYT bestsellers.)

Imagine being too far-right and Nazi-like for the French far-right: "French far-right leader cancels US speech after ex Trump aide Bannon appeared to make 'Nazi gesture'"

This would be completely illegal. But you wouldn’t know that from reading this post, the headline, or the lede. Unbelievably bad.

"We [the Executive Branch] *are* the federal law" is a dark horse candidate for most Hitlerian Trump quote from 2025. Surprised this did not get even more media coverage and provoke even more outrage. The literal, actual truth, of course, is that the federal government has three co-equal branches.

"No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice,..." This is about as unambiguous as any law can be. Trump - person (ikik) Elected twice? ✅️ Conclusion: Can't be on the ballot in 2028 This isn't rocket science.

Current mood

Pentagon lays off 5,400 civilian workers, with tens of thousands more firings due

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

The Pentagon will fire 5,400 civilian workers next week.

Trump's collaboration with the Russians. "A Gulfstream C-37B aircraft with tail number 09-0525 landed at Vnukovo Airport in Moscow on the evening of February 13, around 22:50 Moscow time, according to Flightradar24 data. The flight was first reported by “Agentstvo”.

Ugh. WTF. Let us alone to our decency.

First snow of the year. First snow of the chow. After our walk we had a mad 10 minutes when MrB raced around the garden & I attempted (poorly) to thrown snowballs for him. #chow #chowlover #dogsofbluesky #Yorkshire #firstsnow

Good morning from Little Self-Red Riding Hood (Old photo but a good one) #chow #chowlovers #chowowners #chowchow #dogsofbluesky #selfredchow

Stephen King, master of the horror novel, just quit Twitter because it'd become too "dark." That's how horrifying Twitter is right now. There may never be a more perfect expression of this fact.

This gave me goosebumps. “My 18-year-old daughter was at Starbucks, alone, the other night. A man came up to her and started talking to her. A barista handed her “an extra hot chocolate someone forgot to pick up.” How grateful I am for people who look out for other people!” We need each other.

Are you about to DM someone you don't know? Cut. That. Shit. Out. No one likes it.
