#PlumbingTheParadoxes No. 61: Even if the initial step of this latest amorphous movement doesn't have immediate impact on bottom lines like anti-Target/pro-Costco, it's a collective act increasing individual consciousness, while "raising the moral issue" (Jim Lawson) helping consumers DIY DEI.

#PlumbingTheParadoxes No. 60: "Donald's coming to set you free" should chill us to the bone as much as any "I am he" ever spoken. Note how WaPo* soft-pedals vs others' red banner AI warnings.

#PlumbingTheParadoxes No. 57: H/t some individuals who received said emails and/or family members thereof. Some likely want to reply to the effect of "I wasted time figuring out which of my employees you'd fired the week before, since you didn't bother telling me."

#PlumbingTheParadoxes No. 56: H/t Debbie Sue Reed-Gillette Meanwhile, crashes are common and should be expected as collateral damage of "innovation" (a.k.a. lining his pockets at the expense of those who expect a small check from him).

#PlumbingTheParadoxes No. 52 In the Rayburn switchboard operator's defense, Texas US congressional district gerrymandering is ridiculous, and my zip code is split.

#PlumbingTheParadoxes No. 50 As the daughter of a late whistleblower, I cannot overstate how devastating a lack of protection for people who speak up -- especially against corrupt stewards of public funds & trust like DOGE allegedly detects -- is for whistleblowers and their families.

#PlumbingTheParadoxes No. 41: In Dr. Pratt-Chapman's case, the tragedy in stopping her work isn't that it affects her bottom line (she has noted she can always be a barista), it's that it is preventing prevention and treatment improvements for cancer patients nationwide. (1/2)

#PlumbingTheParadoxes No. 35: The photos continue from last month's visit to the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture. Harriet Tubman's religion was woke before that word was a term of pride or derision in the political sphere. #BlackHistoryIsAmericanHistory
