Seriously, why aren't we putting messages like these everywhere? I'd happily chip in some pro-NSF and pro-NIH billboards? 🧪

The civil disobedience is spawned by the ICE arrest of Palestinian student Mahmoud Khalil.

i’m reading Steve Harvey’s dating advice book and there’s a bit where he has a meltdown whenever his wife does anything adventurous, and he frames it as his masculine drive to protect her
People assume Andrew Cuomo is tough and A Fighter because he always looks angry and acts weird. Mistaking a total lack of emotional self-regulation and wild, self-destructive spite for Masculine Strength is one of the defining political errors to me. No one even tries to keep it together anymore.

"DOGE does not have power over established government agencies, and Musk has no role in government. It does not matter that he is an ally of the President. Musk is a private citizen taking control of established government offices. That is not efficiency; that is a coup."

they are stealing data from the american people and depriving us of the transparency that we are entitled to by law. none of this is legal and not a single federal employee has any reason to comply.

This is Twilight Zone stuff....
For a photo op & a bragging media post, Trump minions at the USACoE have thrown away millions of gals of #water farmers were relying on for later this year. This water will not be captured, will not be useful for cities or farms or firefighting. It is now lost.

Regardless of how you voted, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE voted for Elon to do this shit.

Demand action from your reps.

Text or chat PYFGHI to @Resist.bot and send it to your reps.

You don't have to talk to anyone and sending by email is free. You can do this from your blanket burrito in 2 minutes or less.
