ATTN FEDERAL WORKERS: It has come to my attention that several agencies are now offering WiFi for you to use with your PERSONAL devices. If I were you, I would NOT use that WiFi. I suspect it's a way for DOGE to monitor your personal communications.

I’m so enraged by the blocking of aid and the subsequent firing of federal aid workers. I sent my mom the latest ProPublica article to bring home how many lives are at stake. She immediately texted me to confirm I was not a spammer. Be ready for more article links, mom!!! I’m pissed and sharing!

Genuinely have never met a white dude who complained about DEI, quotas and affirmative action who wasn't leaking mediocrity from every pore, so this all checks out
this confirms something i have long suspected, which is that certain people are told that their professional and academic failures are because of “affirmative action” or “DEI” as a way to avoid difficult conversations about their mediocrity www.wsj.com/lifestyle/ca...

For people who pin their failures on diversity, corporate America’s DEI retreat removes a barrier—or maybe an excuse.
