The NAACP is holding corporations accountable for abandoning #DEI commitments. Their new tactical spending guide lists companies that have backtracked—because where businesses invest (or don’t) matters. #EconomicJustice #BlackHistoryMonth abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory...

Last evening as the Giant Dipper was about to be swallowed by a thick wall of fog. 20 minutes after I took this, I couldn’t even see the lights of the Boardwalk from a very cold Santa Cruz Wharf!

These are the GOP members of the House Ways and Means Committee--THEY'RE some of the people hiding while DOGE disrupts Medicare/Medicaid and NIH funding. If they are YOUR representative, consider a visit to their LOCAL OFFICE this week, while they're home, to explain why they need to oversee DOGE.

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

I think Democrats should hire Vietnamese, Chinese, & Korean speakers to analyze GOP media on Asian-Language news forums in 2024. More money + attention to Spanish-media as well, but I think we're also missing just how much the GOP has permeated Asian spaces.

The GOP Budget Reconciliation bill would slash $880 BILLION in funding to Medicaid. Who will bear the brunt of these cuts? Older adults and people with disabilities. Almost 1 in 4 Medicaid enrollees are eligible for the program because they are 65 and older or have a disability.

Good morning BlueSky friends! It’s #Stunday and I’d thought I’d share a #MilkyWay shot from the PA Grand Canyon area. I was shooting this when a truck went through the woods. Turned into a happy accident! #EastCoastKin #Astrophotography #starstruck #FebruARTY

NEW: Donald Trump fired a bunch of veterans today while simultaneously hindering care for veterans. In a month or so, republicans in Congress will cut food stamps so these veterans won’t be able to feed themselves or their families. I wonder how many of them voted for Trump.

Highly recommend this article by Anna Kellar (@choreosequence.bsky.social) about the deeper issues and challenges that pairs skating faces, as a discipline. Lots to think about here!

We cannot ignore how shockingly abnormal it is for a private citizen — who himself has contracts with the federal government — to dispatch a private army of executives, data experts and recent high schoolers to dictate policies to federal agencies. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/elon...
