What the actual *?! The White House has designated Mr. Musk’s office, the United States DOGE Service, as an entity protected from public records requests and most judicial intervention until at least 2034, by classifying its documents as presidential records.
A memo listing all of the clubs eliminated by USMA.
The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.
MORE OF THIS FOR THE LOVE OF GOD
Democratic & Republican lawmakers should immediately seek an injunction from the federal courts to stop this pillage.
Call your senators and representatives in Congress and tell them you don’t want Musk messing with your Social Security or anything else. That number, is 202-224-3121.
@fetterman.senate.gov we Pennsylvanians expect you to be in this fight. We thought this was who you were when we elected you. Prove us right.
You're the best. <3
I would say therians/otherkin are still around too, but quieter? Folks have kind of dispersed to different places on the internet, and since that was always a more virtual culture (with a few exceptions) it's less constant. Certainly they exist in furry spaces, but also system spaces too.
Oh absolutely. We still have one of the largest furry cons in the world here in Pittsburgh every year. <3
FAA says a military helicopter collided with the American Airlines passenger jet from Wichita near DCA.
There must be immediate hearings on how the federal government/Department of Defense allowed this to happen and if removal of safety protocols and recent personnel changes led to this incident.

If you're struggling financially due to government fuckery or for any reason really and you need infant formula talk to your pediatrician we can hook you up and don't like to ask questions.
All I’ll say is covering this RFK Jr. hearing as an #ActuallyAutistic person is one of the weirdest experiences of my life
How can anyone in their right mind ignore this letter from Caroline Kennedy about her cousin, RFK Jr.?
Sending so much love, friend. I'm really sorry.
Sen. Tim Kaine tells federal employees to ignore Trump’s offer to quit with pay for months. “Don’t be fooled. He’s tricked hundreds of people with that offer. If you accept that offer and resign he’ll stiff you just like he stiffed the contractors. He doesn’t have any authority to do this.”
The new “Don’t Just Do Nothing: 20 Things You Can Do to Counter Fascism—Yes, You! Yes, Now!” zine makes a great gift for your liberal fam, friends, neighbors & coworkers!

I want to gently suggest that acts of creation right now are absolutely a form of resistance and hugely important. <3 Thank you for continuing to make art in horrific times.
The price of eggs in the US is spiking, mostly due to #H5N1 bird flu. Solving the problem requires urgent, important communications from the CDC & FDA* and rapid development of research by the NIH**

when your spouse makes you hot cocoa to get through your final two clients of the day while you have a migraine and you're pretty sure they're an actual living breathing saint
A white person with short brown curly hair is sitting on a green sofa with a fluffy cream mini poodle mix. The person is wearing a blue shirt that reads “I just want to drink coffee and snuggle my doodle.” The dog is staring at their mug of coffee.
Living the dream.

I suspect most of that was like, the old charlie brown teacher voice
"wah wah wah wah wah wah no digging wah awah wah waaaaah wah wah no sniffing waaaah waaah wah wah wah no tricks wah wah wahaaah PEE wah wah? wah wah. LET'S GO"
But it worked! 😅
8F pup pee pep talk “okay, you're gonna go out there and squat and let loose, decorate the snow, water the grass, make it rain -- no digging in the snow, no wandering around sniffing until you freeze, no staring at me to do tricks with you, just out, pee, and we go back in. Got it? Got it. LET'S GO"
Proof I’m on my phone too much: Adora will jump out of my lap with excitement when she hears me close my little pop handle thing on the back of my phone case to set it down.
… yeah, revisiting my ScreenZen settings for sure.
Update: did not go back to bed, but will acknowledge that I am struggling today. Attempting to turn things around with coffee, dog cuddles, and other grounding activities. For anyone else who has experienced SA in their lifetime, no matter how long ago, know that the Gaiman article is VERY graphic.
Wishing you as many happy moments and memories made as you can make time for with your lovely girl. I maintain that dogs’ only flaw is that they don’t live long enough.
