MIT was MIT when Donald was a pup
And MIT will be MIT when Donald's time is up
And any fascist Son of a Bitch who thinks he's in our class
Can pucker up his rosy lips and kiss the beaver's ass

RIFs during a shutdown are 100% illegal.

@oversightdemocrats.house.gov Ranking Member Rep. Robert Garcia and I called on @USGAO to investigate Russ Vought’s illegal directive ordering agencies to fire federal workers in violation of the Antideficiency Act.

This scheme needs to be investigated.

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

This reminds me, @katskitties.bsky.social , that, as the cooler (and here, downright cold in a few months) temperature arrive, #buttpurr season will get underway. We cats in this household don't do much recliner time in warmer weather.

I never tried to be "lawful" but I also only had a few, relatively brief, campaigns. I was a cleric.

I had no feelings about either WNBA team, but I chose to root for Phoenix at the start of the series. This has been a great series but I'm going to go ahead and call it 🧹
I will be back next year, WNBA! I was acquainted with you for several years but look forward to watching more.

Ella appreciates her pulchritude. She keeps herself white on the bottom all the way down to the peets. Except she has this gray booty patch that keeps her privates a little harder to see haha.

By far the most nostalgic PC build of my life was the day I rebuilt my very first childhood computer from scratch back in 2023 — an Intel 386-DX25 with its faithful 387-25 co-processor. Bringing it back to life felt like stepping straight into the past.
