DOGE has sent out an email that is unlawful. DOGE has the sent that email out using a private server, so it is getting classified as spam. DOGE is sending the email to judicial employees (AGAIN), an entirely separate branch. Please explain to me how Elon Musk is a genius?

This seems like a phisher's dream. Announcing that a government email is about to go out and that recipients are required to respond to it seems like the kind of thing cybercriminals would love to spoof in order to infect workers or trick them into revealing their login credentials.

Important thread. Too many of y'all are so intent on othering us using the medical model of neurodivergence as your weapon, it's sickening. I don't need a cure. I need people to understand I'm wired differently. Period. 👇🏼🧵

Thanks for the love! Tiny correction: I didn’t create the phrase “the leopards ate my face” writer Adrian Bott did in 2015. I just wrote a song inspired by his already viral tweet. Buuuut I did design a bunch of leopards merch just in time for your holiday shopping 👀 shop.franchesca.net 🐆

The President who was doing flyovers at Daytona and golfing through his presidency wants an accounting of every federal employee’s work week or they will be fired. This while Elon Musk won’t account for any of his time to Congress.

It’s probably a good day to explain to your non-scientist socials that graduate students are not merely the next generation of academic science, they are an important component of the current scientific labor force. Feel free to mention that this is cut rate labor as well.

It's also part of a longer historical pattern of extrajudicial violence encouraged by right wing politicians since the 1970s. George Tiller, a doctor who provided late term abortions in Wichita, was assassinated in 2009 while in church.

Current status: we're smuggling eggs in from Mexico now. So let's talk about WHY Mexico's egg industry has been stable- while US egg prices are through the roof! 1. Mexico puts people in jail for price-fixing. 2. Mexico lets farmers vaccinate their chickens against bird flu.

Something that's maddening about the cases involving DOGE access to our most sensitive private data and the irreparable harm standard is that the ACCESS ITSELF is the irreparable harm, and some judges just aren't getting that. (Some are, e.g., storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...)
