If you warn people about nitrates in drinking water, people don't understand; but if you use the words "pig shit", they get it right away.

Let's. Fucking. GO.

it does suck to have ideas but not money

I am sharing, hoping that the few people I know on here will help spread the word. We need to make Yale stay strong now. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Is it too early for asparagus?

if your app asks me for demographic data and it’s not legally mandated i hope you know you’re getting 100% lies like a birth year that makes me double or half my age and a zip code clear across the country and the wrong gender every time, 100% lies

We should all disregard all their threats, and just keep working under the law. 2/2

Re: firings Why should we obey illegitimate orders? All those people who were fired should just show up to work, or at least go to their office buildings. If Trump and Musk can ignore the courts, the employees can ignore Musk and Trump. 1/2

Shopped in a Joann Fabric store for probably the last time. I am sad, but I think I'm going to have to get used to that feeling. And anger. So much anger at the wealthy fucks who ruin lives by gambling with other people's money.

It's a constitutional crisis and a coup, y'all. The longer we hesitate to admit this, the more trouble we are in.

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

- racist DOGE guy (redundant) canned - federal judge upholds birthright citizenship - another judge blocks voluntary resignation - NY state going to court over treasury business - patel put on ice for at least a week

but what I keep coming back to is that "DOGE" isn't real, there is no "Department of Government Efficiency," it's just something a billionaire made up and now we're supposed to just nod along and deal with the consequences

Hey so I’m a constituent and I’d truly like to know what you’re doing about really any of this. I mean this sincerely. You wanted to represent California, and now I want to know how you plan to do so. I’ll be calling your office for answers, and I’d ask my fellow Californians to do the same!

I appreciate that the data leak side is really, really bad but the actual headline here is that he wants to stop $4 billion a day in treasury spending Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

I love knowing this!
