It’s the end of a very Special era. I wanted to help people turn up the music turn down the lights and get a feeling they’ll be alright. I wanted to remind people of how they may be broken but still perfect in their own way. We did it - we saw our specialness and we got through it together.

I remember watching this as it aired and I thought it was the funniest scene I had ever seen.
Some handy math from #SiliconValley, a big-brained show for big-brained people. Take notes

Elon Musk claims to have "deleted" the office in the IRS which has enabled people to file their tax returns electronically, simply, and for free.

yeah everyone everywhere just needs to keep talking about Elon until Trump gets jealous of the attention and cuts that fool loose
This is 100% an elon musk presidency. Trump is a performance artist without an ideology. Musk is a true believer. Best case shitty scenario is trump realizes this and revokes his status for pure ego reasons

I cannot recall a president ever threatening to withhold disaster relief as political leverage. But this is what an autocrat does. He pardons thugs and exploits suffering.
Trump on disaster aid to California: "I want to see two things in Los Angeles. Voter ID, so that the people have a chance to vote, and I want to see the water be released and come down into Los Angeles and throughout the state. After that, I will be the greatest president that CA has ever seen."

The two hurricanes that hit Tampa Bay this year caused an estimated $50 billion in damages. 100% of Samaritan's Purse expenditures (which are around $500 million a year) are ministry related. Are you gonna pray the power lines to go back up?
REPORTER: Any talk on having money instead of doing through FEMA, to go local groups?
TRUMP: Yeah. That's what I want to do. We want to bring it locally, so that a state takes care of its problem, and then they can bring it down to a local level like Samaritan's Purse and Franklin Graham

The Democratic Party needs to get out of this woman's way.
AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance.
Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.

Thankful for the nameless bureaucrats who are working hard to do the right thing.
So... I got a notification from the State Department at like 8 PM Pacific that my passport was approved, and I was quietly thankful and stunned bc my legal gender is X, and that's what's on my passport. I'm pretty sure someone worked late to get the X passports done today.
Thank you, random worker.

I just saw someone say that Elon was not throwing up a Nazi salute, but "throwing his heart to the crowd."
I genuinely think we should be done as a species now.
