To go along with our piece today, we published an extensive list of folks associated with DOGE. It builds off and adds to the strong work that Wired, WaPo, ProPublica and other pubs have been doing.
The public has a right to know who is dismantling the government.

Screenshots of four different editions of CrystalDiskInfo. Three of them have Japanese anime characters featured prominently in the UI for absolutely no reason other than the author thinks they look nice.
Isn't it nice living in a world where the de facto hard drive diagnostic tool for WIndows, CrystalDiskInfo, comes in four different editions - which are identical other than featuring a different anime character as the background to the main window?

After Trump embraced crypto, Coinbase gave millions to PACs backing pro-Trump candidates.
After Trump's win, they gave $1M to his inaugural and listed his meme coin.
Now, Trump's SEC has dropped a major lawsuit against Coinbase.
See how this works?
The CFPB is the financial watchdog for the American people.
The agency has returned $20B to the victims of financial fraud and abuse since 2011.
Trump fired its director and put his treasury secretary, a Wall Street hedge fund manager, in charge.
Guess what happened next...
Stay safe out there, Canada

The cover from the D&D adventure 'Curse of Strahd' featuring the titular vampire sitting on a plush red throne, holding a glass of wine in one hand while dropping Tarroka cards from the other. Someone with leet MS Paint skills has masterfully added a beautiful handlebar mustache to the picture.
I drew a handlebar mustache on Strahd last night and remain obsessed. A top tip from @leonyarwood.bsky.social

So… Trump is like an unsupervised infant, mashing buttons clumsily the helm of a ship… meanwhile, Elon’s looting sensitive government data.
Welcome to America…
So much destruction as the rich play with the rest of us like we’re toys.
I’m hoping that in these Dark Days, the libraries can be a center for interests, enjoyment, and community. #library #librarysky

Most of the people reading this have a sense of how bad things are right now.
So for encouragement, here's a thread with examples of folks fighting back.
The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more.
I'm trying to save them.
You can find the deleted docs at cdcguidelines.com - I'll be adding more over the weekend.
So if I’m understanding today correctly, the world’s richest person Elon Musk, whom no one elected, is taking over federal payment systems and employee data while the federal employees who investigate and prosecute public corruption are being fired en masse.

The cover of Videogaming & Computergaming Illustrated magazine, October 1983 issue. The headline reads "Uncensored Videogames: Where Do You Stand?" A woman in a blue leotard and high heels stands posed dramatically on top of a computer motherboard, symbolizing the intersection of technology and provocative themes.
I thought I'd dedicate a thread to the October 1983 issue of Videogaming & Computergaming Illustrated. It's a significant issue, I'd argue, because it's maybe the earliest instance of a gaming magazine really digging into matters of gender and sexuality in games at length. 🧵

He should. They should. But they won’t. The Democratic Party and much of the media has already implicitly—even explicitly—capitulated to fascism by refusing to make the hard choice to do everything within their power to oppose it.
It’s cowardice and normopathy and sanewashing up and down the line.
Lots of good-looking mushrooms on that steak

An academic study found that on July 13, 2024 — the day Musk endorsed Trump — there was a systemic change across Twitter resulting in massive increases in reach for Musk and other accounts supporting Trump.
This should be a scandal.
every one of those op-ed columnists has spent years building up a follower list on twitter, many of whom left, and so they are angry because you owe them your attention ad to help them get paid, your entire existence is to facilitate their need to put in as little effort as possible, know your place
