I’m so sad Joann’s is going out of business. My childhood was spent there, including buying the fabric and notions for my formal dresses I made in high school. I hope they can come back in the future😭 (naive thought, I know)

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.

Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.

But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.

They aren’t firing for a reason.

Over on the other site Elon Musk said that DOGE stopped $50M of condoms from being delivered to Gaza which Trump the repeated several times but it turns out that was the number for all contraceptive support from USAID everywhere on Earth, of which none went to Palestinians.

This whole thing speaks for itself. This guy is unprepared and untrustworthy. I'm voting no.
I am going to put together a thread covering RFK Jr's confirmation hearing for the HHS secretary job. Follow along for clips and commentary.

Caroline Kennedy, cousin to the current pick for HHS secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr, has penned a scathing letter warning senators about her cousin, calling him a "predator."

She also says her father and uncle would be "disgusted" by RFK, Jr. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLLx...

OpenAI says it has proof that Deepseek used its work without permission to create something meant to undermine and destroy its product.

On behalf of all the authors whose novels and stories were taken as training data, oh no that must be so hard for you.

It’s been inspiring to see everyone come together for LA,,, but there’s one community I need to highlight.

Let’s give libraries more money

I've been seeing a lot of posts about readers trying to curb their own book buying. Let me remind you of the library. Libraries can use your support now more than ever. When you checkout library books this lets funding authorities know the library is worthy of taxpayer money. 1/3

Writing advice that should be more popular than it is:
- Take workshops taught by writers in your community
- Go to book launches and readings in your community
- Proactively practice craft by reading about it, applying what you read, and discussing it in your community

This is a thread about book banning. Right now, today, books are being pulled from shelves in libraries and classrooms, some by direct order, some in fear of what's coming. This is *exactly* what Project 2025 said was going to happen. Make no mistake: this is not about books; it's about people. 1/8
