It's the entire email list for all DOGE employees. Have fun!

Lol. The D's man ...

Honestly, time to primary these D's. This is getting ridiculous.

W.T.F.Kirk is a dolt, and apparently so is Newsom.

look if people booing your anthem upsets you this much, you aint ready for a hostile takeover of another country lol, go back to being mad about kids reading or something, you're not built for this

these people are hopeless. i hope they all get tea partied next year

This is actually a great idea, which means the D's won't do it.

I believe you will see the Social Security system collapse and benefit checks interrupted within the next 30 to 90 days. – paraphrased former Social Security Commissioner Martin O'Malley. He was also a governor of Maryland.

All federal employees must respond to an email from a Nigerian prince with their bank account number or risk being terminated.

"Having forged successful careers in commercial and industrial filmmaking, Pittsburgh proved to be the perfect home for their entrepreneurial spirit as their clients became backers in this new project. It took a city to make this film, and that city was Pittsburgh, PA."

"State sponsored films under the Films Division of India (FD), established in 1948, focused on emancipatory themes with an intention to transform the subaltern, unruly populace into an orderly public. The city was the epitome of a desirable modernity in post-independent times."

By accepting Trump’s anti-Black premise and regurgitating the narrative that equates anything Black as DEI, the NY Times has become part of the propaganda machine

Real Genius, an all time great and an interesting movie when compared to Marvel films that followed: tropicsofmeta.com/2013/05/22/i...

I regretfully admit, this is true.

It's both astonishing and completely predictable that Lynch doesn't know this thing that most people learned in junior high biology.

Our own internal systems at the LC were very slow yesterday, staff noted this internally, but it's affecting us as well. But hey throw us on the shitlist, working for the govt is totally awesome right now.

"[R]ejecting the racist logic of discrimination and troubling language of pathology. Lewis gives audiences a Harlem full of life: work, play, and the in-between all position the “city within a city” as a home, refuge, and site of joy." @profalopez.bsky.social on Edward Lewis's "Life in Harlem"

I mean talk about ******** the bed @politico.com. This is just embarrassing. Get your boy some reading materials, he's out of his depth.

I'm surprised he's surprised. There's a lot of ambivalence about the AI product and tons of resentment about it being crammed down our proverbial throats by techbros. It might have some good results ultimately, but right now it feels like trash.

He'd be a great Harkonnen

The 51st State nonsense is also a snub to Washington, DC. We are denied proper representation in Congress and we’ve been asking for Statehood for a very long time.

As far as post docs for American history go, this is a sweet one. The Mellon postdoc at Cambridge. 3 years. Please share 🗃️ www.jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/50345/

One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!

Between Idiocracy and Don't Look Up, we owe some directors some apologies b/c well neither seems too ridiculous right now.

Posted around NYC, Chicago, DC and other cities. Be creative. Do something!

Agree I actually have followed Kendrick's work and I had a hard time hearing him (almost sounded like mumblecore). Also it would have been nice to get maybe a song or two off his first two albums for the older heads out there: www.pbssocal.org/history-soci...

This is the hero we need in these times. Strawberry on my man, strawberry on!

Congrats!

Notable that Elons crew of incels and edgelords are full fledged men for the purposes of being given the keys to car to run the govt. But for the purposes of being accountable for their actions they’re just kids from good families with youthful indiscretions.
