I appear on @CNN often. And if saying this means my days at CNN are over, then fuck it. CNN, removing @Acosta.bsky.social from his am show is cowardly bullshit. Acosta is an independent, unafraid host. To demote him to appease the crybaby in the White House is pathetic. Shame on u CNN. Don’t do it.

Somebody yelled at me for posting about Ganymede instead of /the state of things/ last night. I know we’re (almost) all on the same page here, but a Bluesky without cute cats, science facts, and dumb jokes would be bad for everyone.

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

Be clear that this administration and its corporate accessories are not simply trying to eliminate DEI programming. They are, in fact, trying to eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion in life altogether.

my whole life, I wondered what I'd be an old man crank about. i always saw people getting mad at "press 1 for english" or someone saying "no problem" instead of "you're welcome." for me it turns out it's clicking those boxes for which ones are motorcycles

These emails, sent across agencies, compel all federal employees to snitch on any colleague whose work might have some vague DEIA inflection. Those who refuse to snitch will be disciplined. Seems designed to put all workers who aren’t white men under a cloud of suspicion. Truly vile stuff.

Great things are happening on reddit. Dozens of subreddit announced they will now ban/remove any links to Twitter posts and it’s spreading massively. The Warhammer subreddit did the same. The Warhammer40k one stance on it is unclear. Hope they soon follow. www.reddit.com/r/Warhammer/...

What is going on at all levels of our Federal government to career, non-political lawyers is unacceptable and gutting. Especially for those lawyers fewer than 3 years into their career who do not have nearly as many options as their more senior counterparts.
