I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

I have and will continue to. But you know why I say it here ? Because @bsky.app is 30m strong and growing quickly. The collective wisdom and influence of users here is far greater than any individual democrat.

I can't say it enough. Bluesky can be the influence that can counter RW media.

Hundreds of Mexican firefighters have arrived in Southern California to help combat the wildfires.

Thank you, Mexico🇺🇸🇲🇽

Happy Friday everyone 🥰

Another criminal pick for the Trump administration.

When I think about Joe & Mika appeasing Trump so they can maintain their comfy lives, I think about Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss enduring years of harassment for simply doing their jobs.

So when Joe defends it by saying people need to live in the real world, he should respectfully go screw himself.

Release the Gaetz report.

Pass it on.

This beautiful owl has been coming to my backyard every morning for three weeks now. Love having her 😍
