Federal workers told to name DEI colleagues or risk 'adverse consequences' Emails sent to government workers at numerous agencies gave employees 10 days to report if a colleague's job relates to diversity, equity and inclusion efforts.

I see.

It only took Day 2 for a policy of naming those who are Commies lest you get in trouble.

Well done, MAGA. You are gonna give me my whole authoritarian bingo card!

We disagree. I look and see that MAGA won. Complacency fell to anger. Empathy fell to spite.

The line is gone. To rebuild, we have to recognize the flames took everything. What is left isn't load-bearing in its current form.

That is what I think people fail to realize.

MAGA ALREADY WON.

The solution isn't to resist. The solution is to retake. To reclaim. To start the new war, at every level from city to state to Federal.

They spent 40 years getting here and they won. We have to start a new war and reclaim.

With every day, it becomes more clear why we've lost so many incredible talents in the last decade.

Huh. I've never written ANY of that in any female main character.

While I appreciate you reminding people, I love how you still think "rights" exist in this country.

The only thing I would change would have been to top headline it:

Fascism on the Rise

The new AI infrastructure deal is "Project Stargate"? REALLY??

New theory:

We are in a simulation and are UNABLE TO WAKE UP because we bought into it as reality.

People outside the simulation are trying to wake us up. So they're writing the stupidest TV season ever so we finally see it.

He can when no one stops him or the Supreme Court says he can.

I don't personally think jokes (even overt ones still pointing out the reality) are the right choice here. Anything that normalizes or diminishes those -2- salutes is less than the ire he deserves.

About what? The death of democracy (or rather the admittance that it was already dead and this is what theocratic oligarchy looks like?)

If you mean you're waiting for the subversive, ... That is coming.

I am glad you do. Maybe I will find strength again tomorrow. But I have none today.

Hey @briantylercohen.bsky.social!

What is the context for this short?

They are not mutually exclusive. But I think not recognizing the ideological extremism as a factor in to the current once-GOP's success is failing to, as you say, know the opponent.

Or maybe they're just tired. Tired of 40 years of doing everything they could from the early days of the Contract on America to point out to Americans what was happening.

Tired of watching today coming for literally decades and feeling like Cassandra because none of their warnings were heeded.

Everything the GOP says the left does they are doing.

Which makes you really wonder about their claims of the left when it comes to babies and adrenochrome.

Theocratic oligarchy (noun): A government of and by the few at the top, supported by religious zealots who use their morality to help keep those few in power.

Let's get this right, Robert. Neither of these groups would be succeeding without BOTH allied together.

That won't stop him. The laws no longer matter under theocratic authoritarians.

It is amazing how many eggs you could buy if you didn't spend thousands of dollars going to an inauguration of a felon who is both so frail and so afraid and so corrupt that he was NEVER interested in you.

You asked for a conman and grifter. This is what you get

Tonight I mourn the loss of freedom across the world. I mourn the loss of inclusion, of empathy, of decency and of honesty.

But most of all, I mourn that fucking Jeff Winger rolled that dice and put us all in the darkest timeline where Donald Fuck will start a 2nd presidency ON MLK Day.

For those saying "it only costs x" ... for now. As governments realize the influx of money this can make, that will change. It always does.

For those who have lost (at least for the moment) income from TikTok, I am saddened.

For those who have lost everything they owned because of the California fires, I am more saddened.

For those who will ignore both to sit in a rotunda on Monday, I am sickened.

It's not bending the knee they'll be doing on those cushions.

So let's be clear:

Refusing to send aid to Californians hurt by the fire is punishing the PEOPLE of California. Not the government.

So fuck you forever, GOMAGA.

If the criteria for getting government assistance is tied to political agendas, I hope you rot next time Dems regain control.

4. Working on myself continues. Rebuilding health, continuing therapy, deeper meditation, more Wiccan rituals. Maybe past-life exploration and/or reconnecting with spirit guides. I am in a completely different world-frame than 3 years ago. Crazy. Then again, so is a 2nd Trump presidency.

3. Budgeting/Funding the largest show we have ever contemplated. Currently have no idea how to even attempt to pay for this one. Anyone have experience finding investors for live theatrical IMMERSIVE experiences?

2. Valentine's Day immersive tradition with Keight Leighn. Working on variation/refinement of last year's one-day show.

Putting this here to get moving on the year:

1. Podcast about the NARRATIVE of immersive experiences, past present and future. Have started the work on it. Next up, the website to frame it, finding guests and writing the immersive experience that will actually be hidden within.

I have a live #immersive #theater production happening here in Los Angeles.

I have written over 170 pages of material and our actors are killing it under the direction of Thea Rivera.

Skip your normal Holiday party and come to ours instead here at Scrooge, Inc.

Ping anyone you know as well that you think would like to talk about their best immersive experiences...and why.
