This may be the dumbest thing I've seen come out of this whole awful situation, and that's saying something.
“New deportation officers at ICE used to receive about five months of federal-law-enforcement training … Academy training was shortened to 47 days, three officials told me, the number picked because Trump is the 47th president."

Amtrak was literally formed because private railroads were going bankrupt. A company trying to run a passenger rail service with profit in mind would be incredibly short-sighted and idiotic, so naturally Musk and his team of Qbitler Youth will try to do it and break the whole system in the process 🙃
Next on DOGE’s chopping block: "We should prioritize anything that can reasonably be privatized,” including public services such as the postal service and Amtrak.

I hope in-app translation gets added to #Bluesky at some point. I've found that opening a new tab in another app or browser tends to make me lose interest in whatever I was trying to translate in the first place.
Idk the logistics of getting that implemented, but it's really my only complaint here.
