Turns out Ireland could single-handedly put a stop to this entire nonsense.

I wonder if the uninhabited island tariffs were Rubio backpedaling.

Rubio: “Sir, what’s the tariff rate going to be for Putin land?”

Trump: “What was that?”

Rubio: “I said what’s the tariff rate for Penguins island. Penguins on islands”.

A lot of people who got the measles as children died or suffered lifelong disabilities as a result. The measles vaccine was a godsend to worldwide public health, and it’s an absolute scandal that this lethally ignorant dolt has any power over public health.

Frankly, I’m not sure how many more teachable decades the world needs.

The day has come where every historical US hustler/gangster film with a criminal element and foreign interference, featuring a used car yard, is brought to you in real life by the White House. In techniwhite.

Autistic, trans and an academic who keeps exceptional company.
I’m clearly a joyful threat to authoritarianism.

According to Trump I’m a threat to American national security (autistic) and I don’t exist (transgender). He really needs to make up his mind.

Our United Airlines pilot made sure to emphasize *Mexico* when he said we'd be flying over the Gulf of *Mexico* today.

It's the little things. Microdose hope.

I've never felt sadder to have schadenfreude. Some of these videos are of people realising he hates them...so do they understand now how hate speech becomes action? How do they feel about bullying speech now? Will they get genuinely interested in how governance should work now? I hope so.

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

Here in Australia, things like work boots are expensive enough. If this includes things like steel capped boots (both shoes and steel is impacted) then this impacts workers protective equipment by a lot of money. Again, workers paying for this trade war.
Absolutely brutal scroll on Fox.

Employing people with criminal records is a DEI initiative when done appropriately. But you don't put bank robbers in charge of banks. Unlike US Presidency, which doesn't seem properly merit-based or checked & balanced at all (unlike DEI which is heavily scrutinised). *my personal opinion only*

I just wanted to note for the record that we have a decorated Iraq war veteran who flew combat missions in a Blackhawk as sitting member of Congress! Who also happens to be a woman! And if you don’t know who Tammy Duckworth is, you’re in for a treat (complimentary).

Hey Bluesky! I’m here.

Yes, I’m still a bit stunned by my prescient tweet (below) 14hrs before the tragic DC crash, after which many of you encouraged me to finally gravitate to here.

Happy to belatedly join the community. Tom

A second plane has gone down in 3 days. Seems like things were safer when DEI was still in place.

Beware the mediocrity telling you what a meritocracy is.
Cutting regulatory bodies that keep people safe in fast paced environments...is exactly what mediocrity does. Then the mediocre claim hero status when things go horribly wrong - only to put back the same regulatory bodies.
