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.

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.
With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.
You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

Stay strong. For us, this is more than just a job-it’s a calling. Together, we will stand to protect our parks, environment, and wildlife. Four years… we remain hopeful that the attack on our public lands will be less brutal this time.

So it's dangerous for China to have the ability to access our data and manipulate us via social media apps.
But it's okay for America's billionaires to have the ability to access our data and manipulate us via social media apps.
Do I have this right?

TikTok's algorithm makes it a really valuable resource for connecting with communities you haven't even figured out you want to connect with yet. It can be life-changing, and people dismissing it as a dancing-teenager app are showing their ignorance.
TikTok had a massive community of #ActuallyAustistic people, likely the largest autistic community in the world ever. It included all ages and speakers and non-speakers.
It also had a large chronically ill community.
The potential loss of community for many otherwise isolated folks is significant.

This was never about data. This was never about national security. It was ALWAYS about silencing our voices. It was about keeping us apart. It was about keeping us from being informed. It was about CONTROL. #tiktokban

A reminder that Los Angeles had its hottest summer in history last year. Southern California has received just 2% of "normal" rainfall during the current "rainy" season.
These fires are a direct result of a warming & drying atmosphere caused by burning fossil fuels.
We are in a climate emergency.
