We’re officially in full airport mode all the time now: everything is crazy expensive, sweatpants are acceptable at all times, nobody’s judging anyone for drinking more than they usually do, and we’re all just out here buying books and coffee to deal with the stress

Trump’s ridiculous executive order to resettle white Afrikaners in South Africa “who are victims of unjust racial discrimination” is all you need to know about his racist, white nationalism. Just in case you had an iota of doubt.

Between USAID and the NIH, it's amazing how much this administration is attacking relatively inexpensive things that built the United States over the past 80 years.

Under fascism, no one is safe.
Universities stayed quiet as the admin targeted DEI & foreign aid, censored research, etc.
Now, they face devastating cuts to indirect cost rates, threatening research & operations.
Silence won’t protect institutions. It won’t protect people; it never does.

it is singularly critical that all of this mess isn't pinned on trump or musk.
this is the republican party.
as they systemically destroy countless lives, the entire party must pay the political cost for there to be any chance of recovery.
harder to build than to destroy. dems will need numbers.

I know this is bonkers but ummmmm we need shareholders in Musk’s companies to dump the stock. Like. As much as they can? I get they’ll lose a lot of money. Not as much as they’ll lose if Musk keeps going like this. The shareholders are the only check on his power, apparently! So a memedump please?

I cannot exaggerate my rage at everyone who said “it won’t be that bad” or “we can’t have Trump derangement syndrome” or “we need to work with them” or “we need to focus on policy” or “maybe DOGE can do some good things” after 2016, 2020, or 2024

WTf is going on….. also tried to get access to the payment system. Something is rotten and why do they need to work “around the clock”? And no check on what they’re doing.

It happened again in Nov when we were 2-3 seconds from touching down in San Diego already over the runway & suddenly were racing straight into the sky. We saw the plane directly below us and turning north after it took off. Clearly a near miss. Shook the completely full flight up, let me tell you.
