To make the doomscroll easier, here's a thread of all the wild stuff we learned this week, starting with @brbarrett.bsky.social's analysis on why DOGE *is* the deep state (and Elon Musk's extended universe.)

I’m glad people, or at least Europeans, are responding better to Musk’s repulsiveness than they did to Henry Ford’s antisemitism of 100 years ago
Staggering sales drops, swastika-daubed EVs, companies culling fleet models, and fan-forum owners selling their cars—Elon Musk's alt-right antics are seriously impacting his electric car business.

Great. Opened a letter from Medicare & now owe $185 a month when I already have good insurance from my employer for $100 a month.
thanks to all the websites & people telling me to sign up for Medicare when I turned 65 even if I am working & have full insurance or I’d face have big penalties.
