The problem people have with DEI is *not* that it threatens the employability of the white male talent pool. (It doesn’t.) It’s because DEI threatens the employability of the mediocre & low talent white male “talent”pool, and those guys have already been overcompensating their whole lives.

If your bank’s fees don’t properly reflect the fact that you are literally loaning them your money, it’s time to check into your local credit union.

I’m sorry, gendered what-now, Arkansas? Dare I ask who gets to own the mullet?
We reported on this a few days ago, but I want to point out this headline because this is where we are at.

88% (!) of major U.S law firm partners are white and nearly 75% are men. And more than 50% of firms report having *zero* Black partners. These numbers are even worse when you look at equity partners.
This action by the EEOC is nothing short of disgusting.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.
Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.
Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.
TODAY is the showdown.

What's up, Bluesky? I'm joining up here to wax poetic and share ideas with y'all. I gotta say... initially, I was just attracted to the open technology model, but, ultimately, I'm making the move because of the quality of your content. As they say... the people make a house a home.
