The most important story of our time is not what Donald Trump wants to do, but what the people of this country allow him to do.

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start

Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.
More accurate, fewer words;

"There are plenty of contractors going under".

A friend furloughed 75% of staff (furlough w/paying for health insurance for three months), 50% exec pay cut, 25% rest of staff to keep as many people w/salary.

PS: Wasn't 18F a government office, not a contractor.

If Kash Patel--Trump’s pick to lead the FBI--is confirmed, it’s scary for women & gender-expansive people. We'll experience increased surveillance & heightened investigations into “pro-abortion terrorism” (a made-up political term). Sign now to fight back. share.weareultraviolet.org/s/miGQPfnw
Sign the petition to urge your senators to vote no on Kash Patel!

Current read is The Name of this Band is R.E.M. by @peteramescarlin.bsky.social

It’s brilliantly written & prompted me to dive back into in R.E.M’s magical back catalogue.

I especially love how it evokes the arts & music scene of Athens, Georgia in the early 80s. Wish I had been there to see it!
