I love to joke about OSHA (and NIOSH) but every single OSHA regulation was written with someone’s blood
1. OSHA has ordered the digital and physical destruction of 18 publications on workplace safety practices, according to an email obtained by Popular Information.
The email says the publications have been removed from the web and tells staff that physical copies should be "disposed of or recycled"

taking black kids away from their parents and putting them on farms seems really familiar to me! what could it be?
Even the most disturbing RFK Jr. headline always manages to have a detail inside creepier than you could have imagined. I’m sorry, did you just say Black kids should have a chance to get “re-parented”???? Gift link wapo.st/4hW2xGI

As a political scientist who studies countries that managed to stop the slide into authoritarianism, I can assure you that ***refraining from provoking the authoritarian*** is not how it works.
Without further ado, I will now go tear out another chunk of hair.

most journalists today can be divided into two groups: dedicated, impoverished people who mostly write for publications you've never heard of that started eighteen months ago or JP Random House The First, who writes columns for the New York Times about which ethnic groups it should be OK to hunt
an important thing about america's current media elites is that they're basically just the dregs of an industry that has been constant contraction since the 90s and thus a lot of them are nepobabies who don't actually want to do any work
Checked this story about Trump shaking Ukraine down in exchange for continuing military aid to see if it mentions that he got impeached for doing that exact thing, and friends, you will not be surprised that it does not.

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.
