So when we said DOGE wasn’t going to root out waste, fraud, & abuse, reduce the deficit, but instead smash agencies billionaires find inconvenient, steal our data, & get people around the world killed using punk kids too dumb to realize they’re committing treason… we were right?
You know what? Fine, tech bros. You win. You get to do algorithmic pricing.
But in return, we get to do algorithmic taxing on everyone with a net-worth over $5million. As a little treat.
Never fund DHS again. Abolish it completely.
If someone wants to moan about "but but we have to ____" yeah fine we can discuss a new department, but *this* department has to go.
I realize that to people outside the PNW this is just an interesting news item, but if you're in the PNW, where tracking orca pods is a local religion, this is basically like being visited by alien gods
This delights me @jessicahuseman.bsky.social
one of the earliest lessons in politics I learned as a kid from my parents was to always vote for a tax increase, because you're trading a dollar amount so small you probably won't notice in order to fund something important that benefits everybody. I wish that was how Democrats messaged this stuff!

objection your honor, my client is being brutally owned online
Infuriating as someone who got TMJ from misaligned teeth, the stress of which resulted in monthly debilitating migraines - which was resolved by my mother finding the money to pay for it over 5 years. Yea - not related to health
Just so we're all clear, this is a war crime and would be punishable by life or death under U.S. law.

Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning:
Denial of quarter—even the declaration of no quarter—is a war crime.
And recognized as such by the US Government.
From DoD's Manual for Military Commissions.

Dogs evolved to eat your leftovers! Comparing dog & wolf genomes revealed dogs have up to 30 EXTRA copies of the amylase gene (AMY2B) that helps digest starch. This is a key genomic signature of living alongside humans & table scraps for thousands of years 🐕 www.nature.com/articles/nat... #2026MMM
looks like we traded generations of healthcare for 4 days worth of missiles
For weeks now, I've shared information about HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS protesting ICE REGULARLY. So much so that whole states like Kansas and Texas are rolling out LAWS to sanction schools and laws to criminalize TEENAGERS. Please let's be serious.

I love the idea that *this* US government, which has been nabbing landscapers and five year olds knows where Iranian sleeper cells are but just hasn’t gotten around to doing anything about it yet.
Doing just fine and dandy-Target’s in the rear windshield ain’t never going back
ooooh temu figured out it's now shorthand for "cheap off-brand garbage" and is not happy about it
The best way to serve this city is to listen to it.
@nyc311.bsky.social gets contacted 100,000 times every day.
This morning, I stopped by the call center to pick up a few calls from New Yorkers.
At this rate Trump might have to release the rest of the Epstein files to distract from gas prices.
You really need to watch this whole clip. It's amazing.
Sen. Murray: "I'm just sickened by this. To go into this war unprepared, to use outdated data, and to have this horrific thing happen where children were killed in a school sends a horrible message to those that are in a war with us and to our own constituents about what America's values are."
