I choose not to trauma scroll today; instead, I will stick this right here and dip while I enjoy the good mood I've scraped together. 🫰

There's nothing like a bit of #ElectricCallboy to lift my mood.

1) DOGE firing an entire FOIA office doesn't negate an agency's statutory requirements to process FOIAs. Even if the agency is taken down to bare bones. They are still required to process FOIAs.

2) There will be no way to rebuild what DOGE breaks if there are are no records to use as a roadmap.
NEW: CDC FOIA page are being dismantled, including pages containing FOIA request logs and the portal to submit FOIA requests.
NEW: The entire CDC #FOIA office — nearly two dozen people — received RIF notices. FOIA personnel at FDA and NIH were also dismissed. The CDC has seen a massive uptick in FOIA requests this year. It’s the second busiest year since Covid.

Today I live-streamed for 5 hours with 6,000 people and I am tired.

I have NO IDEA how Cory Booker did 25 hours, but I hope he becomes president someday.
God Bless Cory Booker!

The late Daniel Ellsberg, our co-founder and board member, leaked the Pentagon Papers in 1971.

We are happy to share a new resource on the papers and issue a reminder that challenging the government’s classification claims can be an act of patriotism.

Even knowing it's spam, the voicemail I received yesterday about a company wanting to take action against my late mother and how legal documents they sent were returned is still really upsetting.

The Trump administration is complete shit.
They know they're complete shit.
Congress knows they're complete shit.
And yet.

The Trump administration has announced the federal government will no longer unequivocally prohibit contractors from having segregated restaurants, waiting rooms and drinking fountains.
Trump administration ends "segregated facilities" ban in federal contracts
The Civil Rights Act of 1964 still outlaws segregation in business, but the move is symbolic.

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow
As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

I've found that I need to speed up some videos (YouTube content, specifically) to 1.5x speed so my brain can't meander off to where I'm no longer paying attention to the content.

I've also used this with other visual media, like boring corporate training. Gets it processed and done faster, so ha!

I read Stone Butch Blues at your recommendation in our early 20s, I think it was. Still one of my favorites. Forever spot on my shelves.
STONE BUTCH BLUES. that is the other one. Oh my god, what a formative text for me. Stone butches, high femme, labor organizing, that book has it all.

(Sorry for yelling at people with screen readers but I can't bring myself to un- all caps that title.)

Anyway Leslie Feinberg was a hero.
17 was also the year I read my first Joan Didion, my first Audrey Lorde, my first Daoist text... I think there was something else in there too, although I can't remember right now.

Anyway it was a year of transformation, although it took a while to really settle in me.

I was wondering why one foot was cold and the other mildly warm. It turns out I got distracted while putting on socks, so I've been sitting here for two hours with only one foot covered.

YT decided to share Electric Callboy's "Elevator Operator" with me a couple of weeks ago. I would be lying if I said I hadn't started my day with it every day since.

If you haven't had the pleasure, then by all means...
