A person standing at a library circulation desk with a sign that reads, "Please don't talk to me about Heated Rivalry because I have no self-control, and will talk to you for hours and get no work done. Thank you so much!" The DC Public Library logo is visible on the sign.

A gentle request: let them work… for now or they can talk for hours 😉

Photo of three trees in front of a grey sky. In the sky, a haiku: "I'm counting on you to care for yourself and have the greatest dang day!" Just above the centre tree, a speech bubble with the words, "Haaaaaappy Saturday!"

I'm counting on you
to care for yourself and have
the greatest dang day! 🌲💚

This haiku is brought to you by my #positivitree. Haaaaaappy Saturday! =)

WASHINGTON, D.C, (May 2, 2025) — Patricia Harrison, President and CEO of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), issued the following statement today regarding the President’s Executive Order on public media: “CPB is not a federal executive agency subject to the President’s authority. Congress directly authorized and funded CPB to be a private nonprofit corporation wholly independent of the federal government. “In creating CPB, Congress expressly forbade ‘any department, agency, officer, or employee of the United States to exercise any direction, supervision, or control over educational television or radio broadcasting, or over [CPB] or any of its grantees or contractors…’ 47 U.S.C. § 398(c).”

Just a reminder that most of Trump's executive orders are nothing more than press releases.

After he ordered the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to pull funding for NPR and PBS, the CPB responded that it is authorized and funded by Congress and is not subject to the president's authority.

Not sure why anyone would consider visiting the United States when they subject random tourists to draconian actions like this

Ein taking a nap, but still listening in case we drop food.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:
18f.org

Cherry blossoms on our street today. Spring is on its way, finally.
