Pete Buttigieg breaks down DEI for everyday folks…

“The opposite of diversity is uniformity. The opposite of equity is inequity. The opposite of inclusion is exclusion.” @petebuttigieg.bsky.social

Our problem: too many value uniformity over inclusion and they’re the ones running the government.

America hasn’t felt this upside down since I was a child in an internment camp.

'Howdy' is an alteration of "how do ye."

What a different world we could have.

Trump wants to fire 83k VA workers, many of whom are veterans themselves, decimating the VA & making it harder for veterans to get health care & benefits.

When Americans put their lives on the line to defend our country, we must keep our commitments to them — not betray them.

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA.

Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps.

Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems.

See how this works?

Hey DOGE bros - found some of that wasteful spending you were looking for.
How many gov employees could have kept working and feeding their families with the estimated $2.5M this stunt cost?

This is probably the most accurate take.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Good morning to this man, and this man only #bbcqt

looking back, AOL had it right. 30 hours of internet per month was the right amount.

It’s fun starting a new hobby with ADHD because I never know if I’ve found a new lifelong passion or if I’m going to spend $2000 on stuff and immediately lose all interest

it's so important to make time for yourself, rest, treat yourself gently and with kind words. you, not me, I have to run myself ragged until I collapse in a pile of exhausted self-hatred but you should definitely self care.

Who's surprised?

Amazing article.

"More recently, researchers have found that the viral outrage disseminated on social media ... actually reduces the effectiveness of collective action. The result is a media environment that keeps us in a state of ..fear and anger... instead of organizing against [our oppressors]."

The nation's problems feel really big, and I feel really small. I will do what I can, where I can, when I can to make a difference.

Today, I donated to the ACLU so skilled and passionate people can fight on my behalf.

Starting trade wars to make it easier to take over the government was literally the plot to the Star Wars prequels.

I just got my Kobo a few weeks ago. Not going back.
