Here’s the hard truth: this country’s people are tired of subsidizing billionaires. Want your cars to sell? Do it without subsidies. Want to shoot rockets into space? Get by without govt contracts. Want to build a website? Build your own internet first. We are DONE with you.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

So the gearwheel with the 14* cogs in the DOGE logo is the same as the 14-cog gearwheel used in the flag of the Nazi DAF. Trying not to go full conspiracy theorist, but it's weird how these Nazi links keep turning up... Source: www.mind-war.com/p/musk-to-un... (* See also: Nazi '14 words')

I am a reluctant:

A SpaceX rocket exploded in January, leading to FAA safety violation fines. Elon Musk threatened to sue the agency. Shortly after, the FAA administrator resigned. The FAA's commercial spaceflight office could be next on the DOGE chopping block. See the problem? www.propublica.org/article/elon...

Elon Musk has ZERO receipts for his claims of “fraud” in government agencies. But there seem to be a LOT of receipts showing that those same government agencies were investigating or regulating Musk and his companies.

Tryna strike a chord and it's probably A minorrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Good time for a reminder:

"The NIH announced it will slash billions of dollars of support to universities and research centers. "This is one of the biggest attacks on science we have ever seen. It could dismantle the biomedical research system, shut down clinical trials, and halt development of treatments" - Dr. Lucky Tran

Ida Wells was born enslaved but refused to live in fear. She wielded the power of the press to expose America’s greatest terror—lynching. When the truth made her a target, she didn’t back down. She co-founded the NAACP, fought for Black women’s voting rights, and left a legacy of resistance!

You’re more likely to be killed by a vending machine than a shark.

It's literally impossible to run the National Weather Service without talking to foreign partners. For example, the National Hurricane Center in Miami shares data with other nations in the Caribbean constantly to forecast storms. Everyone benefits. Weather doesn't stop at the borders.

Exciting news! We’re thrilled to announce that tapir Yuna gave birth to a rare and endangered Malayan tapir calf Sunday night. The newborn, covered in distinctive white spots and stripes resembling a fuzzy walking watermelon, is only the second tapir born in our 120-year history.

I feel bad for all the indie game devs out there making horror games right now, having to compete with reality and all.
