It's really dystopian to see how digitizing everything, which was supposed to keep records safe, is instead being used to quickly purge information. We should have known I guess, but cripes.

Trump has revoked an executive order — signed in 1965 by LBJ — that required federal contractors to refrain from employment discrimination and take affirmative action to ensure equal opportunity "based on race, color, religion, and national origin." www.axios.com/2025/01/22/t...
Trump rolls back bedrock 1960s-era civil rights measure

Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

Jan 6 was investigated and largely prosecuted as domestic terrorism. The pardons should be reported and spoken of accordingly. An endorsement of terrorism. Trump sprung his terrorist network - including, by extension, himself.

2/ This "essentially shuts down the civil rights division."
They've been told they must not file "any new complaints, motions to intervene, agreed-upon remands, amicus briefs, or statements of interest." Any consent deceres finalized in the last 90 days must be sent to the DoJ chief of staff. BAD:

![Except: “It’s beyond unusual —it’s unprecedented. We’ve never seen this before at this scale with any transfer of power, regardless of the ideology of any incoming president or administration,” said Damon Hewitt, president and executive director of the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law. “This should make Americans both angry and deeply worried. This is more than just a changing course of philosophy — this is exactly what most people [in the civil rights community] feared: a Justice Department that was created to protect civil rights literally abdicating its duty and responsibility to protect Americans from all forms of discrimination.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:3r4tlcv62hpq3uumf7jdfr5u/bafkreiboiqi3ew264s3vil47aie46jf3t3f27m4i53euvvh24bpftfzzri@jpeg)

The assault on NIH is a test for how the national media covers the Trump admin: Trump is shutting down medical research!
That is easy to communicate. Will they treat it as a 5 alarm fire in a way that forces the government to respond, or will they downplay & caveat it?

The most annoying thing is randomly having to shit your brains out at the hospital while working. Especially if you don’t have time to get to a secluded bathroom. So ridiculous lol

Typing into the void again: it’s actually so weird that I don’t have a single person in my life who I feel 100% accepted by. I go through life on pins and needles catering to the different people in my life. So fucked lol

I just opened my blinds to let some light in my apartment… but only actually did it after checking that it was a cloudy, overcast day so not too much light would come in lol. Vitamin D level of 12.3 is so unsurprising lol
