The truth about "DEI HIRING PRACTICES" (a thread). I don't know who needs to hear this but I think it's important to share an informed opinion about DEI. I've been in technical staffing for 24 years. I've used DEI policies for at least 20. DEI is about OUTREACH, not selection. (Cont'd) #DEI

This installment about Ukrainian authors was important. Russia (and accomplice Trump) have tried and tried to rewrite history in real-time. They fail. These books detailing life under occupation reassert truth. The brave authors gave their lives but ensured we can still read them. #SlavaUkraini

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

These guys need to come to Collin County, Texas. It's friggin Cybertruck capital here. There are some places in the US where you might see one a month. I swear in Frisco, Prosper, Plano, McKinney, etc - in these Texas towns you will see at least 5 a day if not more. It's straight Doucheville.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

A James Bond TV show for a streaming service in 2025 is gonna be insufferable. Just 10 episodes of a guy that doesn't call himself either James Bond or 007 yet and then in the final episode, he orders a martini, shaken not stirred, and we all politely clap and Season 2 takes 5 years to come out

The key point that was made in this clip is that it happened organically. We don’t come from the consultant class, we get zero legacy media hype, we don’t get invited on shows & don’t want to be on TV, no big money donors writing checks. It all happened one person at a time. bsky.app/profile/acyn...
