Palantir deserves way more villain smoke, indeed.
People need to talk nonstop about Yarvin, Alex Karp and Palantir, IMO.

I just came off the floor after speaking for an hour. I refuse to let Republicans confirm Russ Vought the easy way, so we're holding the floor through the night for 30 straight hours.
Vought has shown he'll ignore the law & constitution. I'll be voting NO tomorrow.

Trans rights are human rights. Human rights are non-negotiable. The fundamental dignity of every human is not an open question. There's no "yeah, but.." There's no "middle ground." If one of us isn't free, then none of us are free. Full fuckin stop.

The White House is saying Canada misunderstood the tariffs as a trade war & it feels eerily similar to when men hit on women relentlessly- then act like they didn't mean it when women do not reciprocate. Huge "It was just a joke, it's not that serious" vibes. Canada did not misunderstand anything.

The federal govt just paused all agency grants, loans, and financial assistance programs beginning today at 5:00 pm. As a #Trio staffer, do I have a job tomorrow? Do my students have financial aid? Administrators should be scrambling!

alright you wanna know how to support trans people?
hire them. It's REALLY hard already for visibly trans people to get jobs, even before this shit.
Support places that have trans people working front of house, and make sure owners know that's part of why you're there.

USA is a dumpster fire and kids get shot up in schools every day but the one thing these Douches can agree to do is to ban TikTok. Private equity is buying up all the homes, rent is skyrocketing. The planet is burning. BUT THE PROBLEM IS TIKOK.
