My hope is that with his death, Charlie Kirk achieves a more positive influence on America than he did in his entire racist, anti-LBGTQ life: to highlight the scourge of gun violence that is singularly destroying our country.

Mockler: If Elon Musk were watching, what would you say to him?

Frost: Get a life. Thanks for showing the world that money can’t make you any less pathetic than you actually are.

Musk is fading.

OPM notified top government human resources officers on Monday “that employee responses to the OPM email” demanding the list of workplace accomplishments “is voluntary.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...
HHS warns employees that responses to Elon Musk's request may 'be read by malign foreign actors'
The Department of Health and Human Services message comes after emails from the Office of Personnel Management and a tweet by Musk caused widespread confusion.

The OPM letter states, “Assume that what you write will be read by malign foreign actors and tailor your response accordingly," …

My response to this horseshit:

“I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic…”

Emphasis on domestic.

Musk's whole deal is to pretend that no one knew how government bureaucracy worked before, like it was this big mystery box, and it's exactly that combo of stupidity and arrogance that pervades silicon valley and leads to them reinventing a city bus and thinking they're Isaac Newton

Welcome to the Age of the Coward—where billion-dollar corporations crumble faster than a wet paper bag, and craven CEOs like Bob Iger and Tim Cook prove their “values” were just expensive PR stunts with an expiration date.
This Is the Age of the Coward
The Age of the Coward is here, where America’s most powerful corporations, once eager to preach their values, now fold like cheap umbrellas at the first gust of political wind.

Scoop: The databases powering DOGE.gov are insecure, and people outside the government have already pushed their own updates to the site to prove it:

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

Heya Lady, as a strictly traditional hand on type of artists, I got your back on this. I share your AI art, no big deal. It's just a capitalist problem. AI is the natural evolution of art for business just as much as the first early days of mass produced materials. The outcasts then were Picasso.
At least on Twitter, no one gave a crap if I shared AI photos.
Here, I'm put on awful lists and get called nasty names.
I like AI pictures.
You don't like them, you know where the door is.

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare.

Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.”

We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

its hard to be polite when the world is regressing back to fascism and apartheid, erasing every single form of black history, contributions from immigrants, cultural and diverse institutions being dismantled etc….

you can’t expect anyone to be okay or be normal about this. this isn’t normal at all

We could have had Kamala Harris. Instead, we have the most immature, petulant, stupid, needy, incompetent dipshit to ever enter American politics.

What a tragically stupid country we are.
