For shame, National Cryptologic Museum. You can cover up portraits with brown paper to bow to MAGA authoritarianism but you cannot erase the contributions of women and people of color in our history. (Reminded of this when I bought stamps today.)

Making lots of calls this week about Musk’s coup and now asking for no votes on Vought. I actually spoke to a live person at the office of Haley Stevens! And was at least able to leave a vm for Elissa Slotkin. Gary Peters vm still full. 👊🏻

5 ways to celebrate #BlackHistoryMonth (cause the fed govt doesn’t run your house) 1. Find out what Sojourner Truth REALLY said 2. Buy a Black horror, scifi or fantasy book 3. Listen to “Naima” by John Coltrane 4. Send the victims of the LA fires in Altadena a few coins 5. Get a library card

Why is Gary Peters voting yes on confirmations? Why is Elissa Slotkin? They should be with Phyllis Fong, chained to her fucking desk.

Thank you, I’ll have plenty! I used to crochet a long time ago and just started knitting a few weeks ago. It’s been a great way to stop doomscrolling and reflect 😌 I’ve finished a Sophie scarf and have started a sweater. (I’m waiting for more purple yarn & am casting on a new cardigan as I wait 🫣)

Musk and his team have hostilely taken over OPM. Tonight’s email to fed employees mirrors the “Fork in the Road” message sent to Twitter (now X) staff after Musk’s 2022 takeover. He is working with the Trump administration to build profiles on federal workers based on loyalty (political standing).

Mr. President: Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, I have a better idea. In Denmark, everyone is guaranteed health care, college education is free, parents receive 1-year of paid paternity leave & workers don’t make less than $22 an hour. Let's steal those ideas.

The “sin of empathy”?… Can someone who is Christian explain that to me? We are living in a very strange time.

www.senate.gov/legislative/... Gary Peters and Elissa Slotkin are gonna get sick of hearing from me but I must express my disappointment over their votes FOR Laken Riley act and the confirmation of John Ratcliffe. I’m all for bipartisan compromise but these are not the situations for it.
