I hate being a supervisor means it doesn't align with my values. Like who gives a fuck that one or two days have low productivity. Especially when on average most days they're productive and the 1 or 2 days doesn't actually set us back. Fuck how punitive this job is. Over nothing.

In her first meeting with reporters, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told an obvious lie. (In case you were wondering, no, the United States did not send $50 million worth of condoms to Gaza.*) But the fact that Leavitt made this statement tells us a few things. 🧵

Trump’s plan bears a striking resemblance to one sent by Elon Musk sent to Twitter (X) employees in 2023, before laying off around 80 percent of the company’s workforce. The two memos even have the same title — “Fork in the Road.”

It's been so much better for my mental health to skip on mainstream media coverage of the current administration. Prefer other independent media that doesn't try to sensationalize what's happening in DC.

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.

Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

It is day 8. The United States is in Constitutional crisis as Trump asserts the right to spend or freeze money allocated by Congress, changing the presidency from an executive bound to implement laws to a monarch who can treat laws like suggestions. The system teeters.

"Zionism is the national self-determination movement of the Jewish people, as well as a force for ethnic cleansing, racial apartheid, and genocide, which makes it just like every other national self-determination movement." www.liberalcurrents.com/the-banality...
The Banality of Zionism
Zionism is just 19th century nationalism, and its conflicts are ordinary nationalist conflicts.

I feel like I'm living in a constant state of dejavue. Though in reality this administration is following the same playbook they had in 2017 but worse. Picking up from where they started since Biden didn't do much in terms of protecting Americans from the coming Prez Cheeto's policies.

Hi! Quick note: The Onion accidentally posted a stock photo from a vendor with an AI generated image in it. We pulled the post down once we found that out. Our commitment to not using AI is very real. It's in the union contract to disclose it if we ever do. World is a slop minefield and we're sorry.

What's been great for my mental health this term is not following big medias and their coverage of every little thing Cheeto does. When I do check in I'm like oh he did that last time.

gotta say, as an American Jew, don’t love the new ADL philosophy of “we will provide unconditional support for Israel killing civilians and in exchange we will give you permission to do Nazi salutes”

63% of Americans support deporting undocumented immigrants so the NYT splashes this on the front page as a mandate to do just this. It becomes urgent—the will of the people. 71% of Americans support universal pre-K and 69% support Medicare For All but this mysteriously provides no such mandate.

Pretty much confirmed that I'll get zero assistance from my brother when it comes to my parents as they age.

A super power and a curse, the pattern recognition o fellow #neurodivergents. Lately it's been focused on my parents. I start to see the subtleties in the way the move. The things they'll forget. Increased visits to the doctor. All of it diligently noted, to anticipate what might be next.

I have to get this out before I forget. Today the #NYPD was doing something more shady than usual. I'm commuting home from work and see them stop a young man for I guess was #fareevasion. Which I found interesting since it's 125th street station.

5 days since joining #xiaohongshu and I have downloaded Hello China, joined a Chinese Learning group chat and barely been on #TikTok. Whether or not the ban happens, I'm sticking around. I always wanted to learn Chinese and now have the drive to do it so I can talk to my new friends.
