Nice reminder to check your #socialsecurity
Brandontour on threads: I highly recommend All US CITIZENS who've been paying taxes towards social security to go log in and download your most recent statement that shows how much you've paid into it to date, and what your benefit amounts would be. A lunatic currently has unrestricted access to the system. Better to be safe than sorry

Tweet from Senator Ron Wyden: Sources tell my office that Treasury Secretary Bessent has granted DOGE *full* access to this system. Social Security and Medicare benefits, grants, payments to government contractors, including those that compete directly with Musk's own companies. All of it.

A while ago I got on a kickstarter for a #goodomens graphic novel. After the information dropped about Gaiman a lot of people have wanted refunds.

They are open for a while. Also, Neil Gaiman will not receive any proceeds from the graphic novel and they will all go to the Terry Pratchett estate.
Screenshot of an email describing and updated refund policy for the Good Omens graphic novel. Refunds will be allowed until Friday February 7th. Additionally, Neil Gaiman will not receive any proceeds from the graphic novel, they will go only to the Terry Pratchett estate.
