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

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

Has anyone pointed out that after the Trump regime has set up a huge incarceration system for immigrants, it could use that system for its native-born political enemies? Might be something to think about.

Also, courage is contagious. I continue to stand against American fascism in the hope that others will take heart, too.

Forced birth in a country with:

—No universal healthcare
—No universal childcare
—No paid family & medical leave
—One of the highest rates of maternal mortality among rich nations

The NY Times wrote about this project back in March. I’d love to connect! www.nytimes.com/2024/03/31/u...
