Trump’s D.E.I. Ban Has Been Open to Interpretation in Schools Some universities are scrubbing websites and canceling events to comply with executive orders targeting diversity efforts. Other schools are promising to resist.

β€œUniversity administrators are debating whether to freeze existing programs, stand on principle and resist, or try to fly below the radar while they see if the executive orders hold up in the courts.”

Kendrick’s American flag motif at THIS MOMENT is subversive. Yes, yes, yes.

β€œMost of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked. A citizen who adapts in this way is teaching power what it can do."

Our United Airlines pilot made sure to emphasize *Mexico* when he said we'd be flying over the Gulf of *Mexico* today.

It's the little things. Microdose hope.

The blithe tone of this headline and deck is chilling.

Even if it is just bluster, the fact that he can make a statement like this is so callous and deeply cruel, I am actually shocked.

Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on β€œDEI” with zero evidence.

He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials.

It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.

Oh, Look at Mr. Fancy Pants Over Here Eating His Eggs β€œPrices at the grocery store have risen for many foods, but the cost of eggs climbed the most in the last year and consumers have scrambled to keep...

"Well, well, well, if it isn't Mr. Big Shot eating an egg for breakfast. You do understand people are suffering, right? They can't pay their rent. They can't afford their medications. And yet here you are, eating an egg for breakfast."

I’ve been watching Grotesquerie and it is SO GOOD. Niecy Nash is absolutely incredible, and the plot is so compelling. That being said, I do not buy Travis Kelce as an ex ski bum tai chi guy…

COMMENTARY: FEMA's administrator, a longtime Coloradan, is being attacked as a "DEI hire" because she's a woman. Here's how we straight white guys, regardless of politics, should respond to that trendy slur. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BqX2...

Anyway, I googled crypto mining, read all about it and still dont understand it even a little, but I do picture Minecraft now whenever I think of bitcoin.

I just watched a video of a couple in MN who live close to a crypto mine?? These are real places??And apparently it is very loud to live near?? I pictured everything crypto happening in a quiet computer lab- maybe some minor keyboard clacking?

I *thought* it would just push more heat toward the open vents, but apparently what it actually does is builds up pressure and then potentially creates leaks in your ductwork/ makes your furnace work harder.

For context, it is always freezing on the main floor, but a blazing inferno upstairs in our bedrooms, so I had closed our vents for easier sleeping. Looks like blazing inferno, it is.

Tonight’s adventures in insomnia: reading that you should actually never close heating vents in your home, and then reopening all closed vents at 3am…
