“If you don’t like it, leave.” I would have if we had the means. But, we don’t. So I stay, & yell & fight & educate, because even you, in your white skin & cisgender man stereotype, will find out that that those who crave power above all else will feed you to the beast to gain one more dollar.

Homeschooling as a secular person is a lot of doom scrolling ATM. Do I need to buy curriculum from now until 12th grade to make sure we get real facts & science, do I cross my fingers & hope, so I hold that since they want to break the DOE that homeschool will still be an option? Hate this timeline.

My youngest has discovered The Jetsons, asked about flying cars. “We were supposed to have them, but clean energy & science were made uncool by assholes & now we are on a dying planet ruled by ppl who think you can eat money.” My loving 10 yo, who doesn’t even like to kill spiders, “fucking jerks”

Talking w other nerds yesterday & I said my great grandfather was an immigrant, unsure of legality because it was 100ish yrs ago. “So you’re saying you’re not a citizen?” The mouths that laughed at the same ones who say “it doesn’t affect me”.

New: We spoke to government IT employees/contractors about DOGE. Their warnings were dire. The people who maintain the systems that keep the country working are terrified. "This is the largest data breach and the largest IT security breach in our country’s history—at least that’s publicly known."

New — The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) was told this week by DOJ that they'd lose their funding if the org didn't remove any mentions of LGBTQIA+ issues from their public materials, I've learned. Staff were told they need to deadname trans kids in their reports to comply.

For anyone who’s written a scientific paper, this makes absolutely no sense unless your goal is to censor science.

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options. Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

I am begging the national media to start taking this seriously. Stop buying the claims that the framing of "temporary" or "pause." They are altering the review processes of federally funded scientific research from merit-based peer review processes to political screening by ideologues.
