Life is short.
Eat the cake. Buy the tickets. Listen to the same song on repeat. Take a nap. Tell your crush. Be your most authentic self.
Life is short. Grab it by the handlebars and twist the throttle.

In this b&w photo, a man is riding a motorcycle towards the camera. A woman is sitting on the gas tank facing away from the camera. She is topless and appears to be having a great time.
The caption reads, "The best memories come from bad ideas."

Make sure to protect yourself while you protest others. @altfda.altgov.info with a good info 🧵

I absolutely love how the inflatable costume is taking off for protest! It offers protection in so many fucking ways but if they go into battle, we will need to level the costumes up for extended dancing in tear gas smoke. Let’s talk 🧵🧵🧵🧵

Everyone says "Why won't anyone do something?!"
And when they do, they're told they're doing it wrong.
And wrong again the next time.
And then everyone says "Why won't anyone do something?!"

It’s less that Trump lies constantly,
And more that his tether to reality snapped months ago. What point does his lack of cognitive awareness become a national security threat?

Even with some staff having their firing rescinded, CDC has been deeply damaged by the cuts from 🧠🪱 that remain intact. We do not have a complete list as this was done in secrecy. 🧵

Bike ride?

Oh... mine doesn't have pedals.

Go get em, Portland!!

Can a sea of naked people on bikes change Trump's mind on Portland, Oregon?

In Portland, activists are planning a unique show of dissent: A naked bike ride to protest Trump's deployment of National Guard troops.

In addition to kneecapping FHEO, (remember the denials?). RIFs dealt huge blows to CPD HQ staff that fund affordable housing development, community infrastructure, relocation and down payment assistance & even meals on wheels. A few more notable offices were decimated & will post more on that soon.

HUD laid off so many fair housing investigators on Friday that it shuttered the regional offices that oversee discrimination cases in 9 states: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Facts 👇

ProTip (AKA alt_localgov) @protip.altgov.info · 10d

They have been told they have authority to detain and arrest people for basically no reason except they want to. So the floor is really low here. That doesn’t make it legal but it does mean they do it and mostly get away with it.

ICE lied about the person it shot, claiming he was a "criminal," but NBC finds that he had no criminal history whatsoever. Not even traffic tickets in 12 years! It also lied about the extent of the injuries to its agents....

Sure we know about non-excepted (furloughed) and excepted (working without pay), but did you know about intermittent excepted?

This hell of its own means at any moment the worker could be called in to work without pay. So, not much flexibility and lots of sitting and waiting around.
