Earthquake in Afghanistan leaves many dead.
Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a USAID BHA still that could coordinate some help for people who have suffered so much already?

The CFPB was dismantled over the weekend, with all activities suspended, its funding reduced to zero, and its headquarters temporarily closed—removing a crucial layer of oversight for consumer-facing financial companies. Staff members ordered to cease all ‘supervision and examination activities.

All this administration does is put every single nonprofit and institution into a trolley problem of either sacrificing trans people or hurting everyone else by eliminating federal funding.
It won't end with us. They'll do this with every minority until it's only white men who are left.

While Trump has been distracting America with everything else, Elon Musk’s staffers are quietly taking over NOAA and the Department of Labor. They are also using AI to help rewrite a significant portion of the federal government’s computer systems.

Interrupting y'all's doomscrolling with this pic. My Rockettes (a trio of Partridge Rock girls) laid these - one of them got fancy and added a heavy pinkish bloom.
It's too early in the year to set up the incubator - other project steps must happen first - but I'm tempted.
