There’s just so much shady shit in this story, but this really sticks out. Folks in NLRB’s IT unit were so freaked out by what they saw DOGE doing that they wanted to notify the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. Then this happened:
The new revelations about DOGE's activities at the labor agency come from a whistleblower in the IT department of the NLRB, who disclosed his concerns to Congress and the U.S. Office of Special Counsel in a detailed report that was then provided to NPR. Meanwhile, his attempts to raise concerns internally within the NLRB preceded someone "physically taping a threatening note" to his door that included sensitive personal information and overhead photos of him walking his dog that appeared to be taken with a drone, according to a cover letter attached to his disclosure filed by his attorney, Andrew Bakaj of the nonprofit Whistleblower Aid.

It is really bothering me (understatement) that the message is “bring back that one innocent guy” and not “WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK SHUT DOWN THIS WHOLE OPERATION IMMEDIATELY.”

RFK Jr. wants to eradicate autistic people and also has no idea what an autistic person is
"These are kids who will never pay taxes," Kennedy declared. "They'll never hold a
job. Theyl never play baseball. They'Il never write a poem. They'll never go out
" on a date. Many of them will never use a toilet unassisted. We have to recognize
doing this to our children.

Many medical supplies are manufactured outside of the US. I would buy additional KN95, N95 and KF94 masks now, as well as any medical supplies you regularly rely on. Even basics like bandages, Aquaphor, medicated lotion and pimple patches. Order that stuff asap.

Both ‘libel’ & ‘slander’ refer to defamation and are often confused for each other. ‘Libel’ is a written/published statement. 'L' for 'letters.' ‘Slander’ is for spoken. 'S' for 'spoken.' ‘Label’ & ‘slender’ are different words and are rarely confused for each other.

Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines. When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.

Thinking of “the bottom line” not as a measure of cynicism, but as “when it comes down to it, what intangible value is more important than anything else in the world to you?” And I’m trying to decide if it for me is something specific, like family. or broader, like love, or laughter, or meaning
