Incredible chart

Again, the richest man in human history personally individually directed this

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns. 100% of his salary is paid by WA state. Elon fired him. Share his story.

a new agency made of teenage neonazis and drug dealers is in charge of the entire government. the richest man in the world, who gave a nazi salute at the president's inauguration, says he is in charge. officially, he isn't. the government won't tell the courts who is in charge

The reply email inbox for this “what did you do last week” email is [email protected], so, you know, definitely don’t send them any unrelated messages that would interfere with their ability to carry out Elon’s dumbass bullshit

If I was a foreign power wanting to cripple US power, I'd: 1. Purge intel agencies + expose agents 2. Mess w/Treasury 3. Politicize military 4. Turn off foreign aid 5. Shutter anti-corruption + election interference teams 6. Sow discord with allies Wait, I'm getting an update...

what Musk is doing is as close to the government being taken over by a hostile foreign power in our lifetimes, the coverage should reflect that

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

i don't repost my own posts because i don't want to give the mistaken impression that i like or value anything i've ever said or done

very disappointed to learn Guy Pearce is Australian. He has perfect American business freak physiognomy.

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance. Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.

found a stray dog the other day. she was a good girls and very stinky. the spca folks took her to get cleaned up and taken care of.

people working at multiple levels of my university are using gAI to write emails (yes, we can tell), to come up with survey questions, in workshops and seminars, and in class. And each time, I want to ask them why they are contributing to increasing the demand for this planet-guzzling shite tech.
