Lost my CDC contract after a visit from DOGE. I feel like I’m in the dirt (or TBH eating a pint of ice cream on a couch crying). But here’s the thing: Pushing people down—especially those with heart, purpose, and love for public service—doesn’t mean they stay down. It’s literally against their DNA.

I can't sleep - no clue why. 😐 After watching this video that builds on the one @LedByDonkeys created, I may not sleep again until *all of this* ends. There needs to be a global boycott of all of his companies. Nothing will change until we hit oligarchs in their profits. ASD does not cause n*zi.

Decentralized Social Media Is the Only Alternative to the Tech Oligarchy
The TikTok ban and Donald Trump's rise to power show how fragile our social media accounts are. We must normalize and invest in decentralized social media.
