My only criticism of George Orwell’s 1984 is that it wasn’t titled 2025.

Yesterday many thousands of federal employees were terminated. This is a Reddit thread for federal employees that got laid off.

In preparation for today’s Super Bowl in New Orleans, state police forced over 100 homeless men and women onto buses under threat of arrest, dumping them in an unheated warehouse. Tents destroyed, belongings lost. Press are barred from the warehouse. The price tag for this cruelty? $17.5 million

I went to a training on homeless outreach from a trusted org yesterday, and this is a great option for Americans who want to do something irl but can't risk detainment, so let me share what I learned! 🧵

this is a good time to note that the proposed candidate for NIH director has never run a lab, cared for patients, led a major research and healthcare institution, or been a principal investigator on an NIH grant

I'm only going to say this one time. Protesting in these times needs to be deliberate around safety & risk. We need to be cautious about "spontaneous" actions that have no discernible leadership or planning. "Just show up" as a directive should be a HUGE RED FLAG.
