BREAKING: Friday night massacre underway at CDC. Doznes of "disease detectives," high-level scientists, entire Washington staff and editors of the MMWR (Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report) have all been RIFed and received the following notice:

You will never convince me this is anything other than intentional market manipulation to help the regime’s cronies make more cash.

The history of Spain has some painful lessons around this.

When protected First Amendment protest is “assault”…

Today is shaping up as Black Friday for the federal workforce. Light a candle, spare a prayer, hug a fed if you know one. And keep making your voice heard!!

This is terrifying!

ICE breaks into this woman’s car in the pick-up line at West Loop Elementary school in Chicago and detains her before she can pick her kids up from school. (They were eventually let go after showing their documents)

This is Trump’s America.

Vice Provost for AI? UGH this should NOT be a thing

repost this if an editor has ever saved you from yourself

Thousands of people I don’t know and will never meet engaged and supported me in a time of profound personal grief.

Look what came in the mail today, @uncpress.bsky.social @simpsonvos.bsky.social @profsommerville.bsky.social! 🗃️

Her performance in the series is stellar and I kept thinking in the last season “How does she keep taking it another level deeper” until that final soliloquy… mind blowing

Eight years late I just finished the last episode of The Leftovers.

Y’all I am alone in my home sobbing. What a heartachingly beautiful terrible wonder this show is.

Hoping a few of you out there will remember and back me up.

I’m. So. Tired.

I don’t just want you to pay attention to Chicago because I want you to understand our plight. I want you to see how hard people are fighting and know wtf you’re made of. We’re not just fighting for this place. This is for all of us.

This is a big deal.

Literally praying against this fear as I type.
