Most prescient, clear/eyed work of writing I’ve read on reorg.

Read it.

Then act.

“Call your senators. Call your representative. Not next week or later. Now.

Tell them this is not a reorganization — it’s the destruction of a federal agency by executive fiat and that Congress must intervene.”

That’s a totally legit reason to not be able to serve. 🤷🏽‍♀️

We meant to post adoptable kittens Fishbone & Banana Peel as the twins in Kubrick’s movie adaptation of The Shining, but they much prefer @stephenking.bsky.social’s novel. Adopt these sweet babies & read to them! (Their SF Bay Area rescue’s full, so adopting/sharing ‘em will save more cats too!) 1/3

Between this and the story about the ice agents who ate at a Mexican restaurant and then arrested some of its workers when they were done, it's a reminder that these people reject even the most basic social agreements of hospitality and of helping others. They're sociopaths.

Israel used weapons in Gaza that made thousands of Palestinians evaporate US-made thermal weapons burning at 3,500C caused 2,842 people to "evaporate" in Gaza, Al Jazeera investigation finds.
