Yay, for me!

I did cancel my subscription a few days ago. Anyone older than me? Good jazz aged me this way.

So gross.

Me. Often. But I have never used my thumb.

Coding error. Um. Ok. Sure. Wait. Wtf?

Fascism slowly and quietly deleting the parts of the constitution in their way.

This tracks…

Noticing a theme here.

Why Evangelicals Turned Their Back on PEPFAR A religious movement that has so often taken public stands has been unusually quiet since Trump gutted the program to combat AIDS in Africa.

www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv... Learning about the success of this program, and the silence from evangelicals, is complicated and disappointing. I can’t think of something more “Christian.”

Resharing because it’s timely. And an appropriate earworm for today.

Two days in a row recently, a roadrunner did this, but with a lizard in its mouth right outside of my office door in Arizona. Shaking its head back and forth against the glass.

Just a normal day with Jameson.

Not even going to try to dissect O’Reilly’s conclusion and the series of logical fallacies that got him to “So Trump is right.” His followers wouldn’t get it anyway.

I received an outstanding education as an undergraduate at YSU in Ohio in the 90s. Critical thinking will be forbidden under this new law. People, myself included, have left Ohio. The exodus will continue. Not everyone has the means to leave, however, and I worry for them. They deserve better.

Way to lend credibility to anything: quoting a Nazi.

Sad for libraries, and specifically Tribal libraries, trying to serve their communities.

Passengers deplane on the wing of American Airlines plane after engine catches fire at Denver airport | CNN An American Airlines plane engine caught fire at Denver International Airport after the aircraft was diverted there Thursday evening, officials said, forcing passengers to deplane onto the aircraft’s ...

www.cnn.com/2025/03/13/u... Folks “deplaned” by walking across the wing. The new normal.

www.imdb.com/title/tt1445... What a timely film, eerily so.

Yikes.

As a Tribal College employee, I worry about the same thing.

Trump admin's latest cuts may have violated treaty obligations: lawmaker The Trump administration's purge of workers at the Indian Health Service may violate longstanding federal treaties with tribal nations, Rep. Greg Stanton (D-AZ) warned Secretary of Health and Human Se...

Not sure about the “may have” part. Looks like clear violation of treaty obligations in departments where probationary periods can be two years.

Trump Curtails Anti-Corruption Efforts, as Aides Seek End to Eric Adams Case The Trump administration is telling prosecutors and agents to care less on efforts to investigate foreign corruption, including a case against New York’s mayor.

www.nytimes.com/2025/02/11/u... I mean, I guess for a briber, who doesn’t want to be caught bribing, being called out on it would seem “unfair.”

Even citizens with legitimate needs struggle for access, so how do immigrants somehow get magical access? With no SSN. Clearly lies.

Frightening.

A better definition of evil… can’t think of one.

I reserve the right to change my mind every day on this one. A lot of the time for me it’s “I Can’t Get Started”

Gross.

If I could only go back in time!
