Losing the Institute for Museum and Library Services (IMLS) would be an act of monumental neglect.
I made a video about what’s at risk, and how orgs like @amlibraryassoc.bsky.social and the American Alliance of Museums need us to help advocate for these critical places.

Banning freckles? I believe that kids need to explore the world through books. Books like Julianne Moore’s Freckleface Strawberry help kids with freckles feel good about themselves. Kids deal with bullying, and it scars them for a lifetime! Please just let kids be kids!

Remote work doesn't thwart productivity. It boosts focus.
Government workers are 12% more productive when randomly assigned to work from home. They're more efficient where it's quiet.
Most people aren't shirking from home. They're escaping distractions and long commutes.

I really can't believe I have to write this, but the judiciary is an entirely separate, independent, unrelated branch of government. Neither the President, nor OPM, nor Elon Musk, nor any of the Musk minions, has any authority of any kind to order any of them to do anything.

My wife and I were vaccinated with MMR (measles, mumps, rubella vaccine) as children. Those vaccines saved millions of lives.
We just were tested to see if our immunity is still good. Hers is low or gone, so a booster is needed. Get checked and boosted, if necessary.
