I get Apple Maps etc are a net positive for driving but I miss the days of getting in a cab, telling them the sometimes obscure location and they immediately know how to get there.

Stop trying to debate things that aren’t up for discussion. The right of trans people to exist, racial equality, and disability rights are non-negotiable. Debating them only legitimizes bigotry

Elon Musk is not a Federal employee or a political appointee. DOGE is not a real department. None of their activities are legal. This is a coup. The Republicans in Congress are willing participants in it. At what point do Democrats in DC get that and start acting like it? It’s not the price of eggs!

RONALD REAGAN (1988): We should be aware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends, weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.

What could they do?
*Make the public see the constitutional crisis*!
Get a camera team and go demand access to the treasury; mobilize protests; grind everything to a halt in the Senate. No more normal politics while this is happening.
Create meaningful disruption to signal: This is a crisis.

Musk’s vision of America is an oligarchy where as much money and labor is extracted from every citizen as possible. As Trump said, “everyone is replaceable”.
Freedom doesn’t matter when every living second is spent struggling to not die so they can horde every cent.

What Elon is doing is straight up illegal. He has no authority to go through line by line and shut off funding to organizations he dislikes. He's intentionally trying to destroy civil society.

Just a reminder that Musk couldn’t get a top level security clearance. And he was under investigation for violating the terms of the clearance he did have. Now he has your Social Security number, your tax returns, and is unilaterally deciding who the government does and does not pay.

🧵 Trump’s Financial Coup & the Coming Election Crisis
Trump is rebuilding the U.S. government in real-time to lock in permanent GOP rule.
With DOGE controlling all federal payments and pardoned extremists threatening violence, elections will be manipulated at the source.

I think Americans, blessed with relatively stable government for a long time, assume there is someone, some adult, who will step in and make things right before the President does anything REALLY bad.

Reminder: They're trying to demoralize you, and they're doing a great job of it. Part of resisting is making time for joy despite the attempts to make you feel this is not the time for it. Love your people. Dig the art that speaks to you. Go to the places where life flows into you. You deserve joy.
