Most of my career was focused on overpaid CEOs/Income Inequality. Just started a new job w a local Aging in Place program. I tweet social justice, aging, bargains, books, politics, gardens, adoption, humor, hope. Always curious.

WaPo headline: “Pentagon says it will investigate Sen. Mark Kelly after controversial video”

So it’s now “controversial” to tell people to disobey illegal orders?

Many of us in DC area felt like we were canaries in the coalmine, seeing up front the early DOGE effects. Once "no kings" became a national movement I felt better because in the early spring it felt like others simply weren't aware of how bad things were. We were the loudest canaries we could be.
Sam is right. DOGE did exactly what they wanted it to do- hurt poor people, destroyed faith in government, enriched Elon.

During the day I can keep busy & distracted enough to contain the anxiety. But my tired brain lacks the discipline, so these days I am listening to podcasts in the middle of the night. Anyway, looking for more if you have suggestions

I resemble this remark
Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”

Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

I'm not very good at setting firm boundaries. Right now we have two homeless friends staying with us.

So tonight I'm going through a lot of new follower accounts that don't seem real and hitting "block, block, block." Hope I don't exclude any real neurosurgeons who are just looking for a friend.

'People forget what Khashoggi was investigating when he was murdered. He was writing about Kushner turning over classified info to MBS, who used it to hunt down, arrest and murder his opponents.'

Opinion | I believed Hillary Clinton was a sex trafficker because one of her donors owned a pizza restaurant and "cheese pizza" has the same initials as "child pornography." Here's why I don't think Donald Trump's multi-decade best friendship with a sex trafficker connects him to sex trafficking.

A lot of people didn’t like the Washington Post journalist who was tortured and dismembered with a bone saw for writing critically about the man sitting next to me
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

Doing repost this morning still have our article 3 at the airport today. Yes they’re probably better ways but this works for me.
In April 2009, the Washington Post asked 10 writers to make the case for something that deserves to be tossed out as part of "spring cleaning."

I chose Larry Summers.

Better late than never.

I'm old enough to remember when "armed agents of the federal government raiding churches on Christmas" was not, in fact, a cornerstone of the Republican Party's agenda.

So powerful! Only a thing missing are photos of Epstein in his 40s and 50s when he “met” these girls. A 23 year old and an 18 year old gross but what he did was much, much worse
NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.

Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.
