DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

When Trump says he doesn't know anything about something, it's always a lie. Ironically, when Trump claims to know more than anybody about something, that's also a lie.

One week into the second Trump administration, and we're already witnessing what would be an impeachable offense under any other president. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

I'm still going to call it the Gulf of Mexico. A man-child with a bad spray tan and a sharpie is not a good way to draw maps.

Mike Johnson just attributed a prayer to Thomas Jefferson that is probably a misattribution according to the Thomas Jefferson Foundation. Jefferson was well known for being a staunch proponent of keeping religion and government separate. Full stop. www.monticello.org/research-edu....

This is an updated thread on how & where to purchase Plan B, Ella, & Abortion Medication online. Some pharmacies take insurance,some have options available to help cover the cost of meds, & there are Community Support Networks where abortion meds are given free to those needing them. #WomensRights

Welcome to the Fascist States of America... We need the GOP senators who still have a modicum of a spine left to stand up against Kash Patel's confirmation. Sorry, Susan Collins, but your concern isn't enough, we need your "no" vote.

Vivek Ramaswamy is either an idiot, or he's a lying corrupt MFer trying to stomp out competition for Elmo... Or both. The so-called "Dept. of Government Efficiency" is just a vehicle for a couple billionaires to rig the system to their benefit without any oversight.

I hope everybody had a happy Thanksgiving! I'm grateful for the wonderful people that welcomed me into their home for the holiday weekend as a recent transplant to Georgia from the other side of the country.

Mama Stamberg's cranberry relish is an easy recipe that's become a Thanksgiving tradition for me. What simple Thanksgiving recipes do you make every year?

Trump's tariffs aren't about immigration, they're about paying for tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations at the expense of the working class. Trump didn't want an immigration bill passed before the election so that he could use immigration as an excuse for terrible policies like this.

What the fuck!!! Georgia officials have dismissed all members of the state committee charged with investigating the deaths of pregnant women because ProPublica obtained internal reports detailing the deaths of Amber Thurman and Candi Miller?!? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!?

Attacking trans people is the GOP's new Southern Strategy. We need to stand with and support our trans neighbors, but we also cannot let the GOP use this distraction to conceal their sleight of hand. I don't have a solution to this dilemma, but I am reminded of this quote...

Trump won the smallest popular vote margin since the 1800s. He doesn't have a "mandate" to turn America into a fascist theocracy. Those of us living in purple and light red places need to keep pressure on our senators and reps to oppose Trump's extreme agenda.

Throwback to early in my IT career when I still did physical hardware things. This xSAN I built for a video editing team back in 2013 is probably the most expensive hardware project I've ever planned and built from scratch to date. It came out to 192TB raw storage, I forget what it was after RAID.

It's 2024, why would someone even bother making a thermostat so dumb that you need to manually flip a switch to change between heating and AC? Anyway, out with the old, in with the new...

Now that Gaetz has been withdrawn from consideration for Attorney General, which unqualified criminal will Trump nominate next?

Never obey in advance. If Trump wants to gut our democratic institutions, at least make him work for it. He's installing a bunch of incompetent con-men to run the federal government and it won't take much to stop them, but it will take a modicum of a spine from the media, congress, judges, etc.

Republicans saying the Gaetz report should not be released because he’s a private citizen. I remember when they investigated and showed naked pictures of Hunter Biden all while he was a private citizen.

Please take note: THIS is how a serious public servant responds when the opposition attempts to play identity politics. (“We’re here to serve you, the voter.”) It is EXACTLY the message Kamala Harris ran on.

Since moving away from Seattle, I've discovered that there are places in 2024, in the US that still: - Have single use plastic grocery bags (not just as an option, but as the only option) - Don't have home recycling pickup Those two things feel like low-hanging fruit for the environment.
