If anyone has, or knows someone who has, an opportunity for an accounting grad who has professionally prepared taxes and done small business payroll and billing and who is licensed to sell health and life insurance, let me know, okay? Ideally in the Boston area, but I’m not super picky.

One last fucked up 2025 scoop—FEMA has begun issuing termination notices to CORE staff (appointed under the Stafford Act, ordinarily extended for 2 years) effective Jan 2, agency sources tell me. Sr leadership was asked if they could be given more notice but Acting Administrator Karen Evans said no.

This ICE post is a reference to a Rhodesian Army recruiting poster ("Be A Man Among Men") that's very popular with white supremacists.

Fuck off, 2025.

But huge high five to everyone who pushed back against fascists and bigots and will continue to do so in 2026 and beyond!

We are going to win.

All these fascists bound to lose.

🧵Part of a thread about a Harvard professor who got fed up with "woke" academia and left in protest- when his contract expired. Reminds me of a clergyman whom I knew slightly who left the Church of Scotland over allowing gay clergy- but only when he reached the mandatory retirement age/...
Just another gem from Compact Mag. And, to be clear, he didn’t even have the courage or principle to leave Harvard before his contract expired. That’s why all his grievances are in the past tense.

An excellent op-ed by @attorneynora.bsky.social laying out the Trump admin’s campaign of censorship.

In her full report (www.freepress.net/download/cho...), she chronicles ~200 instances of attempted censorship this year.

It’s incredibly important reading.

Trump allowed the richest man in the world to condemn potentially millions of people to death. In a just world, this moral atrocity would follow all involved — Musk, DOGErs, Vought, Marco Rubio and Trump — like a trail of blood for the rest of their days.

"protected beliefs" are going to be the death of humanity.
Samantha Fulnecky failed an assignment because she didn't do the work. After claims of religious discrimination, her college caved.

Two Florida Republicans now want to make the Fulnecky defense a statewide law.

Not to poo-poo the study, but I thought this was a known fact. I learned in one of my psych classes thirty years ago that writing something down aids memory retention. It's why physical note-taking is important in classes, even if you never look at your notes again.
A Japanese study found paper-calendar users lit up memory-related brain regions and recalled details 25% faster than phone-calendar users.

"notebook aided acquisition of rich encoding and/or spatial information, [was used] as retrieval clues, led to higher activations in specific brain regions."

Combination of extreme laziness and also the fact that he just agreed with most of it
I still can’t get over the fact that Trump made some distinct changes to I/P policy (embassy, consulate, Golan Heights, Pompeo Doctrine, and product label laws) and Biden kept almost all of the changes.

Tesla at the moment is a company without a customer base, and running on illusion and fumes.
As the link notes, I'm the world's biggest fan of the Tesla Takedown.

And I think it's more important than ever with Musk looking poised to be the GOP's biggest donor again in 2026.

Both Satanic Panic and QAnon are just remixes of anti-semitic blood libel. It's sort of shocking to realize how mainstream this stuff has always been in right wing Christianity, especially among evangelicals
We saw a revival of these witchcraft notions with QAnon. Kids weren’t “merely” abused or trafficked in some of that lore—they were being consumed, sacrificed, their blood transmuted into immortality elixir

Kind of telling that ABC News/Disney is using the "Trump-Kennedy Center" language to refer to the Kennedy Center despite the fact that it is legally still the Kennedy Center.

Agree with @karlbode.com: I can’t believe we’re having this convo about MTG, an overt authoritarian fascist and conspiracy theorist.

This is not a person of honor.
There is no redemption arc here.
And there's no difference at the end of the day. We are not giving this horrible person a pass
