do we just go show up at the capitals or something

10/ President George W. Bush created PEPFAR in 2003, and it’s saved an estimated 26 million lives since then.

9/ But many of the programs that Trump halted are American achievements. HIV medication is sitting on shelves because contractors for the PEPFAR program, which normally serve more than 200,000 people every day, were told they can’t administer the meds.

does this mean we're not supposed to pay federal taxes

People are giving journalists advice but the only thing they should focus on is 300 stories titled “Elon Dominates Trump” and “Trump Folds To Elon’s Demands” One week of this will solve your biggest problem. You can work on part 2 once you’ve proven you have the minerals required for this work.

hello, cia? there’s a coup happening in the western hemisphere that is directly contrary to american interests

what if you threw a coup and no one in the opposition party noticed

Both my kids have relied heavily on special education programs and my wife runs a special education nonprofit, so if you tell me that the Trump assault on special education is just a “distraction” I’m going to block you into the fucking sun.

Jummah Mubarak 🌙 May there be blessings upon the poets. Upon the mothers. May there be blessings upon the teachers who are not idly standing by as children and families are terrorized. May there be blessings upon the grieving and may their suffering be eased. Ameen.

A USAID HR director sent out this email today to staff letting them know he was placed on administrative leave. “Today, representatives of the Agency's front office and DOGE instructed me to violate the due process of our employees by issuing immediate termination notices to a group of employees.”

“This you?” and it’s a picture of you next to the shah, and even in black and white you can tell that your shoes and belt don’t match

short story where I make some dumbfuck comment on a menswearguy post and he somehow reveals that I am 40 years older than I previously thought and was directly involved in the 1953 Iran Coup and I looked like shit while doing it

Denver Health paused their care per @9news.bsky.social

Some other lessons: - We all have gifts to give. Some of - Our gifts are not the same - Relationships really matter - When you’re facing a crisis, ask yourself “Who is already doing this work & can I help their efforts? - $ is finite. Give what you can. But ask “Who has resources for free?”6/

Today's "the plane crashed because of DEI" nonsense is just the newest iteration of "the ACLU and the gays are responsible for 9/11" mishegoss. youtu.be/kMkBgA9_oQ4?...

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

I think it’s really important that we stop looking at this as “they’re blaming [insert one group here],” and recognize that they are blaming ANYONE WHO IS NOT THEM. EVERYONE should be banding together right now, rather than fracturing into factions bc combined, we are so much bigger than they are.

DEI made Amelia Earhart disappear

New publication alert. 🚨 Our findings reveal that, contrary to expectations, high levels of both grit and active coping may paradoxically exacerbate SCD symptoms in Black American males, suggesting a complex relationship between these factors. @hamplab.bsky.social   doi.org/10.1002/bsa3...

FERPA prohibits me from sharing sensitive student data 😘

It is their fault because they made it their fault. They refused to adapt and they refused to retire. The Democrats can't move past the Obama media playbook and can't dream of anything greater than Clintonian liberal managerialism. They are, at this point, choosing to live in an alternate reality.

Also, I’m so annoyed that we are *STILL* having this discussion. I mean, this was a discussion that was had in a major way in *1977* with the 504 sit-ins, and again in 1990 with the signing of the ADA. Quit it with the pity and tragedy framing and centering caregiver over disabled experiences.

“Is this who we are”? You’re mf right it’s who we are and who tf we’ve always been. A nation run by the architects of cruelty and violence. Who must take everything via these means because they’re incapable of earning it or creating it!

That’s how we do things in the Dena

it’s going to take all of us to combat this shit. tell the truth and shame the devil.

To update people on the NSF PRFB situation: despite the court challenge and rescinding the original memo, the NSF has continued to comply with the executive order. They have not communicated with us at all and our paychecks are still canceled indefinitely. I know people who cannot pay their rent.

My trans brother received his gender affirming care in the late 1970s/early 1980s. The idea that this is some new fad is ludicrous.

Remember narcissists never take responsibility or accountability for things they do. They lack empathy and will gaslight you into oblivion.

on one hand, first period plan rules. on the other, my neurodivergent self needs a break in the middle of the day 🫠

So are you saying banning books and controlling what teachers teach has impacts on learning??? I'm so surprised.

i’ve gotten a lot of messages from baby queers being like “will we get through this” and the answer is yes. i don’t know how it’ll all go down and it will suck for a while but your human spirit is 10000x stronger than their hatred. it’s the only reason you’ve gotten this far

The Trump administration’s Department of Education has launched an investigation into Denver Public Schools after students at a school implemented an all-gender multi-stall restroom.
