The American Bar Association has just called upon every attorney, regardless of their political views, to join them & stand up for the rule of law & at minimum insist that our government "follow the law." Every lawyer has an ethical responsibility to do so. www.americanbar.org/news/abanews...

Sam Altman rejects Elon Musk & Company’s bid to buy OpenAI, writing: “No thank you, but we will buy Twitter for $9.74 billion if you want."

Kendrick Lamar has 22 Grammies and a damn Pulitzer if you don’t know who he is that’s a You problem

I'm not going to be nihilistic until there's no breath left in my lungs. Nihilism, even in the face of the worst situations, kills morale and makes people give up. We don't need people giving up, we need people to remember they're strong and stand up.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

is it woke to want to end cancer?

holy fuckin shit dude how does this just keep getting worse bigballs is implicated with a group of sadistic pedophile hacker domestic terrorists

If you're gloating that the richest man in the world is "exposing" the corruption of the poorest and most marginalized people in the world, you might be a fucking idiot.

And then you have Theater Kid Millennials who will say Forgive Durden's 'Razia's Shadow: The Musical' And Hipster Millennials who will say 'Hazards of Love' by The Decemberists. Millennials just got to dine on some of the best modern concept albums EVER.

If anyone wants to follow all of the blocks, restraining orders and trials against the Trump admin for his attempts to block people's rights or President Elon's unlawful actions, here's a useful link: www.justsecurity.org/107087/track...

<---- My shocked face Staffer, Marko Elez, at Musk’s DOGE resigns after racist social media posts exposed www.cnbc.com/2025/02/06/m...

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

This is typical Trump lying. He never admits he was wrong. Mexico has been doing this since 2019! But he backed down when it was pointed out.

Only immigrant that I'm tired of and want deported is Elon Musk. But something tells me that immigration is not going to come after him. However, we do have every legal right to report him to immigration anyway. He's still an immigrant that mooches off our system.

This asshole could have ended it all by voting to convict and remove. He can fuck off with this late stage bullshit.

We need to link up people in red states, that voted for basic human rights, with people that are disabled in those red states. We need to focus on making sure the disabled community can get their medications, their food, supplies.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

The oath I took as a federal employee never expires, and neither does my support for the federal workforce.

Another resource for those who want to look at tools to help keep their privacy: privacytools.io Your data should not be so easily accessible or sold by so many companies like Meta. Really useful link to bookmark and have handy.

cool how Project 2025 went viral during the election, we were told Trump disavowed it and wouldn't do it, he got elected and started implementing it immediately and now we're being told "well this is what people voted for" they very explicitly did not

To all LGBTQ+ and allies out there, the app Stand in Pride is out there. It's a bit buggy because it's independent but it's a good resource for community and support. Also, BIPOC folks- make sure to take up space. Your presence is normalization. Queer spaces can be very white.

i will say that we have never experienced anything like an administration trying to essentially freeze the activities of the entire federal government while making a series of illegal power grabs. genuinely unclear to me what kind of response, if any, these guys are generating against them

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service. “Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

The very definition of standing up in the face of opposition.

Here's a list thanks to the NHH discord group that gives you a list of ways to support BLUE/Pro-DEI businesses and cut ties with big corps. I also recommend Clore Beauty, BLK + GRN, Thirteen Lune and Sally's Beauty for hair/skin/beauty!! docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

"Protect the children!" The right-wing cries as they give a full presidential pardon to convicted pedophiles. It's never been about the kids, y'all.

I, theoretically, wish there was an alternative to mailbag because it, theoretically, does not function anymore. Because it would be, theoretically, very useful in regards to emails for "DEI" snitching.

Civil rights were won through protests and lawsuits and literally fighting back. We are not in unprecedented times. We are in a horrible reboot of Reconstruction. Fight in every way possible. Flood those anti DEI tiplines with misinformation, spend 10 minutes every day telling your reps to stop this

The DOGE cult of Roman Empire worshippers went and riled up a guy named Hannibal.
