WIRED named the DOGE operative accused here of planning to take Social Security data to his new job. It's John Solly, and he works for the government contractor Leidos, a company that has millions in contracts with SSA.

Everything I see from the White House makes me loathe them a little more.
Fuck Keir Starmer
- A man who couldn't get us cancelled from Glasto
- A man who couldn't beat us in court

I keep seeing people ask about the 25th Amendment.
Guys. His entire Cabinet is walking around in shoes that don’t fit because they’re scared to take them off.
The 25th is never happening.
I hate to be an "... it it doesn't come from the sparkling RSS region of France" motherfucker, but IT IS NOT A PODCAST if it's proprietary media locked into a commercial platform!

Certain dudes are still upset with me when I said in 2012 that here in the US, being a straight white male is living on the lowest difficulty setting of life. From here on out I'm just going to refer them to these DOGE staffer depositions, and then tell them to go fuck themselves.
this is still the realest thing ever said about america
I have watched 6 hours of a DOGE bro deposition. The whole thing, start to finish. It's a fascinating, and horrifying, look at the people who caused so much damage, didn't really achieve anything at all, while still being so sure they are right. Here's what they said: www.404media.co/i-watched-6-...

And yet every time you see a picture of the same 23 terfs looking miserable in a field somewhere, we're told they're the majority opinion
If you’re one of the nation’s most prominent transphobes *and* you can still go to a major trans rights event and apparently spend the evening largely unnoticed, you should probably be careful who you call a nobody
I would like to congratulate Grammarly’s lawyers for belatedly realizing their shitty AI product was gonna get them class-action yeeted into the sun.
I would also like to encourage Grammerly to eat shit forever and ever amen.
you can tell Wired has been doing good journalism lately because there's been increased whining by the extraction class about how Wired mysteriously changed in the decade since tech titans fully revealed themselves as sociopaths
from this recent Dorsey interview:
INBOX: Latin Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter Bobby Pulido, who is running as the Democratic candidate for #TX15, is offering to sing at any quinceañera in his district by request, after his Republican opponent remarked that he “only belong[s] at Quinceañeras":

Incredible typo to describe the show in that piece.
There's a bunch of Chevening Scholars in my Masters classes and they massively enrich it. Impressive people and also so obviously wedded to going back and improving their own countries.
The explanation is that she’s a vindictive person and he’s a craven coward. They believe that cruelty is a vote winner.
The Singularity is upon us: Apple's AI summarized a text message that read "I'm still down to clown if you are" to.... "clown event still possible."
3.6 million kids in poverty in one of the 7 richest countries in the world and you’re celebrating giving 50,000 or so of them turkey twizzlers 5 days a week while spunking over £1bn down the sink on ID cards.
Why is Labour so fucking tone deaf?

Every time I read what a UK minister says about the EU it almost feels like they're assuming we have the same power as members. We're not negotiating, we're making representations. Only EU institutions are negotiating their rules.
You’d think in this era of “MPs face increasing danger” there would be more outrage at newly elected Green MP Hannah Spencer being assaulted by transphobes but it’s nowhere to be seen on BBC News app even if you search her name
