I like the phillies. Also I don’t like the phillies. I contain multitudes.

reminder that there’s power in a union
Labor union agreements thwart President Trump's return to work order, prompting the administration to issue new directive, saying: "Supervisors should not begin discussions around the return to in-person work with bargaining unit employees until HHS fulfills its collective bargaining obligations."

Conspiracy theories about Covid, Fauci, vaccines, and the like have enabled the destruction of scientific research in the United States. Presidents used to pride themselves on expanding scientific research and funding; Trump is attempting to set it back decades in his first week in office.
More from inside NIH:

Per a source with knowledge, for all internal research (of which there is like $10 billion worth or so), ALL purchasing shut down as of yesterday.

That means gloves, reagents, anything involved with lab work, which means a lot of that work will stop.

Yup. Microsoft automatically switched me to the $99.99/year version with Spicy Autocomplete. You have to go all the way through "cancel subscription" to be presented these options and get the $69.99/year one you actually chose.

The amount of Beautiful Mind math being done to explain away an obvious Nazi salute is really amazing. It's all backwards, too. You don't have to "know what's in someone's heart" to interpret a Nazi salute, the Nazi salute is there *to communicate to you* what is in the person's heart

I want everyone to understand that rescission of 1965 antidiscrimination orders is literally resegregation and for reporters in the room to press them accordingly

also the gall of revoking the *Equal Employment Opportunity* directive. man affirmatively said 'I want unequal employment opportunities'
BREAKING: In a new executive order sent out by the White House, Donald Trump has revoked the federal contractor nondiscrimination executive order, EO 11246, that was signed by Lyndon Johnson in 1965 and has protected employees of businesses seeking federal contracts from discrimination ever since.

On 21 March 1933 Adolf Hitler was officially sworn in as chancellor of Germany. The same day he pardoned 8,000 Nazis, who had committed violent acts, starting with the failed Hitler coup on 8 November 1923.

“Gaetz is gone, but the next nominee will be bad too,” probably, but you still need to build on and rally people around wins, too. Treating every development like a prelude to another loss is how you fall into the pattern of being a loser.

Once again begging people to stop playing into parents rights by saying parents have the right to decide what their children get to read. Children have rights, and "parents rights" is a backdoor to book banning.
