This week I had to take my therapy appointment from the car. And when she logged on, she was like wow Ruth you have a beautiful face. She gushed at me for about a minute about how pretty I am.

Best $35 co-pay I ever spent.

Then I realized it's because she usually sees me at therapy like this:

In case it's helpful, I've been keeping an updated timeline of DOGE's fake "IT modernization" tasks at agencies (and some other data like Trump's golf trips or weekly unemployment claims) here at my little data repo github.com/harrisj/trum...

Suggestions/bug reports/questions always welcome

Went to this book signing and Lauren was smart, funny and engaging. Whoever did this cupcake topper is a pro.

My six year old didn’t want to go to school. When his test was negative he decided to take matters into his own hands.

Information was shared illegally. A career employee at the Social Security Administration provided unauthorized access to data to Elon Musk’s staffers. This employee, Leland Dudek, a data analyst, was recently promoted to acting commissioner by Trump.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

NEW: Sources tell my office that Treasury Secretary Bessent has granted DOGE *full* access to this system. Social Security and Medicare benefits, grants, payments to government contractors, including those that compete directly with Musk's own companies. All of it.

I had polio when i was 9. I was taken from my parents & placed in a Hospital for contageous diseases- the polio ward. I would see them once a week - thru the glass window at the end of my ward. I could not walk. It was terrifying. Kids died. Iron lungs were awful. Dont let RFK Jr ban the vaccine

someone on tiktok said, “we’ve got 7 lex luthors and no superman,” and i can’t stop thinking about it

TikTok ban was never about China and more about Zuck and his idiot buddies losing marketshare. Never forget that.

So we’re just hanging out waiting for our government to crumble? Ok cool. I hope they’ll serve hors d’oeuvres.

There are very few housing shelters for LGBTQ youth. I can’t imagine coming out to my parents at 18, getting kicked out and ending up in a general population shelter hoping I don’t get my ass kicked for being gay.

No DMs please? Why are you here then? It’s like walking into a networking event and then telling people you only do group conversations. My brain hurts.

College freshman today were 6 years old in the 2012 election.

A student of mine (age 20) told me after class that he appreciates when I explain how US politics and media were different before, because the Trump era is all he’s seen.

This is what young Americans think politics is. It’s normal now.
I think that folks aren't seriously thinking about the implications of young adults who know nothing other than a country which has normalized MAGA politics, God help us all.

Think about all the published articles that people didn’t finish reading. How many unread words are out there on the internet wasting CPUs. How human of us.
