Thank Gandalf It’s Friday

yet another article by a Murdoch-owned paper blaming Prince Andrew’s crimes on …. his mother. 🤮 adults are responsible for their own actions. good people can have difficult childhoods; bad people can have immaculate parenting and still be bad. quit blaming women for adult men’s choices

facing unprecedented uncertainty re: employment due to the shutdown/trump cuts 😕 if you have leads on open Emergency Management or COOP/Biz Continuity roles at state/local gov't agencies, I would love to hear about it! especially interested in highly regulated and complex environments, dm's open

i cackled!

Slackbot has fallen 🫡 “Slackbot is getting a big ̶u̶p̶g̶r̶a̶d̶e̶ ̶ downgrade.”

It’s amazing watching so many people choose the wrong side of history while history is happening all around us

🧵 regarding the shutdown: The Democrats aren’t being clear enough about this but we can be: this shutdown is about saving lives. If we don’t reverse the Medicaid cuts (and the ACA subsidies on insurance bought through the exchanges) that Republicans made this year, people will die.

“Someone” cancelled my family’s flight out of the country at the last second. We got our boarding passes. We checked our bags. Went through security. Then at our gate our reservation ‘disappeared.’

ICE is not only chasing down every random brown person in Chicago, they have a cameraman following them to film this for social media. Cruelty and inhumanity as content.

ugh. i don’t suppose Etsy will let sellers opt out of anything that sends referral fees to OpenAI? (sigh) gotta look around at other options www.cnbc.com/2025/09/29/c...

WTF Duolingo? that is not even a word

If you don’t believe that Trump’s authoritarianism can be defeated, look at how scared MAGA is of chalk:

as a founder i am tired reading about how all these things that investors look for are exactly what i have (determination/grit, duty to mission, founder-market fit, technical background/ability to build my own product, track record, credentials, w/e) and none of it fucking matters bc i’m a woman

Ruin a book by adding Tom Clancy's to the title Tom Clancy's Holes

Israel bombing Nasser Hospital twice is an accident in the same way the deaths of 18.000+ children during the genocide have been in an accident in that they weren’t accidents at all.

Another one for my @today-maybe.bsky.social friendz

This rainbow crosswalk at the former Pulse nightclub was a memorial to the 49 people who died there in the mass shooting. DeSantis' DOT erased it under cover of night, calling it "political." My heart hurts. Just existing as an LGBTQ person is not a political act!
