Tereza Vanišová is on 🔥! The team leader in goals scores a HUGE goal in the dying seconds of the third, bringing @pwhlcharge.bsky.social to overtime!

SUSANNA TAPANI ENDS THIS GAME. BOS: 3 | OTT: 2

It’s amazing to me that when Donnie calls himself a king, everyone listens. But when the Supreme Court crowned him king last year, crickets.

I love seafood and federal science.

Copied/pasted from a friend: 1: He's taken control of the Federal Election Commission. 2: He and the Attorney General decide what the interpretation of the law is for the executive branch. No one else can use a different interpretation. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

We’re in a timeline where I agree with Mike Pence 🤯

10% of NASA’s workforce has been laid off—guess that’ll be a boost for SpaceX.

taking black kids away from their parents and putting them on farms seems really familiar to me! what could it be?

Canada. 🇨🇦 USA. 🇺🇸 Thursday can't come soon enough. 📺: Catch the #4Nations Face-Off Championship Game between Canada and the USA on THURSDAY on @espn, @ESPNPlus, @Sportsnet, and @TVASports!

JFC indeed.

1/29: First plane crash in 16 years in DC 1/31: Crash in Philly 2/5: Delta flight struck in Seattle 2/6: Flight wrecks in Alaska 2/10: Crash in Scottsdale 2/12: Military jet crashes in San Diego 2/16: Crash in Covington, GA 7 crashes since the WH congratulated itself for “restoring aviation safety”

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.

"The moral of Niemöller’s poem, then, isn’t really “speak up even if you aren’t in danger.” It’s “speak up, even when the Nazis threaten marginalized groups that you yourself despise.” Fascists do take advantage of indifference and apathy to some degree. But they also build on widespread prejudice."

💔 A 24yo transgender man Sam Nordquist was tortured & killed. He was found in a field in Benton, New York last week. Trump & MAGA Republicans put a target on his back. abcnews.go.com/amp/US/5-arr...

@pwhlfleet.bsky.social FLEET WIN!!! 💚🩶🩵

Y'all, it seems like only yesterday we were asking you to help central Appalachia in the wake of the waters laying waste to our home, but it's happening again, just a little closer to where Steve and Cam grew up. PLEASE help if you can!

Trans peeps, QRP with a pic of yourself that you love

Washington Post got their hands on internal documents from DOGE showing the entire plan to implement resegregation. They're going to purge minorities from government by calling them DEI. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/int...

Mike Pence just reposted an old article he wrote about the limitations on the powers of a president. For some reason. Here is a part of it.

Musk’s website, DOGE, leaked classified government information to the entire world. NOFURN [Not Releasable to Foreign Nationals] information on their website about the [intelligence community] headcount has prompted a scramble as people check whether their information has been accessed.

I was just taking about this yesterday with my housemates

My first job out of grad school was with @noaa.gov The people I worked for were extraordinary. Smart, hard working and dedicated to protecting our coastal environments. Places that happen to generate 100s of billions dollars and millions of jobs, amongst much more. #defendnoaa

If you’re looking for a movie to watch and like political thrillers, Conclave is so good????

The Epidemic Intelligence Service, a nationally recognized program that has run since the 1950s, is a critical component of Americas public health training landscape. 🦠 (1/)

“Diversity is better for the bottom line,” NAACP President Derrick Johnson said. “In a global economy, those who reject the multicultural nature of consumerism and business will be left in the past they are living in.” #DEI apnews.com/article/blac...

Can I offer you cat pics in these trying times?

Neo-Nazi terrorist and convicted mass murderer Anders Breivik, who killed 77 people in Norway in 2011, cited this same Napoleon quote in his manifesto.

People who write about "this is the wrong fight to pick," never ever actually fight for anything. Feel free to ignore them.

1/ Judge Hurson (D.Md) just issued a comprehensive opinion & TRO prohibiting the Trump administration from enforcing its EO banning gender-affirming care. It's not only a great result, it's a roadmap for other judges reviewing Trump's illegal actions. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Trump is now considering paving over Jackie Kennedy’s White House Rose Garden with cement to make it look more like Mar-a-Lago. A White House official said it is “necessary” because it will “restore” the “glory” of the White House.

Stuart worked on 5 Republican presidential campaigns.

Top USAID officials are trying to create a false narrative that life-saving aid has continued despite Trump’s blanket halt to foreign aid. Our @nytimes.com reporting shows the exact opposite. USAID even issued an internal email to stop applications for waivers: www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/u...

The other crazy thing about this is that it shows that Musk and his entourage *THINK THAT WHAT HE DID AT TWITTER ACTUALLY WORKED* and was a good plan. The levels of delusion are fairly stunning.

In addition to being civic degenerates these people are in every case infantile, sloppy and incompetent. Grand flourishes of performative cruelty followed by entitled pleas of "I don't know how to do this. Can you help?"

The Interior Department - home to the US Fish and Wildlife Service, among other key agencies - is firing 2,300 employees after a directive from the Office of Personnel Management. Most of those fired were working through a probationary period and have limited rights to appeal the decision.

Friday SCOOP: @vox.com has learned that USFWS has frozen its vast portfolio of international conservation grants. This is far beyond the scope of USAID-funded work and will inevitably harm wildlife internationally and in the US. @benjij.bsky.social has the story: www.vox.com/down-to-eart...

Showing off a small piece I put together to add to a game I managed to snag for @glossybuckthorn.bsky.social . Absolutely should make more of these when I send out orders or just little ones that may fit someone's vibes. Things to think about
