Calling it - in the next six months there will be an Atlantic or WaPo op-ed about the health benefits of licking boots for their leathery nutriment.

Perfect. And so true.
Ironically, K. Dot’s performance was labeled DEI— when it was a masterclass in CRT.

a good part of me thinks that in addition to everything else, the reason they are scrubbing these stories is they do not want disadvantaged kids to believe they can aspire to anything other than their designated “black” or “hispanic” or “woman” job
This profile has been scrubbed from the site. Rose Ferreira grew up without reliable electricity, immigrated to NY, then survived homelessness and cancer on her way to NASA. She was so moved by images from the Webb telescope she wept. This is what’s at stake

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024.
You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?
Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.
You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

The fact that Donald Trump signed papers that will make things more unaffordable for most Americans from a private club unaffordable to most Americans was too perfect to be intentional.

Every country that Trump slaps a tariff on should retaliate by slapping a 1000% tariff on all Tesla and Starlink products, if only to show Elon that there is a downside to using our public government as his private playpen.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

The little girl in this photo? Ruby Bridges? The first Black child to integrate the schools in New Orleans? The inspiration for Norman Rockwell’s painting?
She has a podcast on Spotify. She’s younger than my MAMA. She’ll probably be at Mardi Gras again this year.
So miss me with the nostalgia.

To our faithful public servants across America:
HOLD THE LINE -- do NOT resign.
Stay in your job, keep reporting for duty, and make them fire you.
Because they CAN'T fire you - it's ILLEGAL - and we will stop them in the courts.
WE'VE GOT YOUR BACK.

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...
You Blamed DEI for Hurting Your Career. Now What?
For people who pin their failures on diversity, corporate America’s DEI retreat removes a barrier—or maybe an excuse.
