Remember, as SNAP is about to end, the standing rule remains firm:

If you see someone stealing diapers or formula no you didn't.

All these people are saying “wait to you think he’s REALLY a Nazi,” and my response is “no I think it’s more likely he’s an irony-poisoned edgelord douchebro, another group that’s absolutely ruining the fucking country.”

Some weirdo on Twitter has been absolutely melting down for like 36 straight hours because I posted:

When this is over, do not forget what ICE did, and what ICE is. And do not make room for them in society. Make sure they know that they are, and will continue to be, reviled and beneath contempt.

Notification reads, in part, "Unfortunately, Democrat Senators are blocking passage of H.R. 5371 in the Senate due to Democrats' insane policy demands, which include $1 trillion in new spending."

SAMHSA just sent this notice to certain contractors. I cannot over emphasize how NOT NORMAL this is.

Anyway, now we know what the FCC thinks is in the public interest:

Fox host advocating for executing homeless people? Yes

ABC comic suggesting Trumpers are using a death cynically? No

If Jesus had focused more on kitchen table issues and less on unpopular outcasts like lepers and prostitutes, he might have won more support from white working-class Judeans.

MMR vaccine doesn’t just prevent measles, mumps, and rubella. It also prevents RFK Jr. from showing up at your child’s funeral to exploit your grief at your most vulnerable moment.

A team we work at in HRSA was just RIFed out of existence. In the midst of personal turmoil and job loss, our client is expressing deepest concern regarding the continuity of the work we do together to support maternal health. We are losing dedicated public health professionals to grifters.

Shared w/me. List of keywords being used to search grants/contracts for possible defending. You'll notice that while words like female, women, LGBT, BIPOC, Hispanic, black and Latinx are on the list, WHITE, MALE, and MEN are not. Gee, I cannot fucking imagine why.

We were also instructed to remove gender pronouns from the signature lines of any email we send to them. Direct violation of 1A. We can't blame our clients, they are trying to protect their jobs and their programs. Heartbreak all around.

I work for a federal comms contractor. We are having to fo thru every sentence, every word on every webpage and in every asset, and remove any references to diversity, equity, the word "gender," any mention of LGBTQ+ people, and more. And yes, the hours put into these changes are all being billed.
