That moment when you realize you’re doing something almost to the day that you were doing something 33 years ago…I’m sitting on my kid’s bed, which used to be mine, in a tent, reading Greek mythology. I was researching to build a life size Medusa then, now for a Girl Scout camp.

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble. For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity. What will you do?

For the Signal bullsh*t with the US gov, what absolutely should not be lost or forgiven is that they set the text messages to auto-delete. This is very much illegal, as it is a direct and intentional effort to hide and destroy government documents. It's a crime and all should be prosecuted.

Trump just signed an executive order banning vote by mail and ordering the defunding of any state that does not follow through with it as well as engage in massive voter roll purges. There won't be free and fair elections ever again. If you're waiting for 2026, it's already too late.

It was great to join @uaw4121.bsky.social at UW today to fight back against NIH cuts. Groundbreaking research that could lead to lifesaving cures will be lost if these cuts go into effect. This will hurt EVERYONE, in blue districts and red — and we’ll keep standing up to protect health care.

So I’m taking a standing-break (because my body hates me) and I take a minute to read a newspaper I have framed on the wall…and the last article on the page caught my eye. Seems poignant these days
The newspaper from the bad timeline in Back to the Future 2.A closeup of the article, the headline reading “public more gullible people than ever” with the byline of Traci’s Pietsch of the USA Today. The article reads:

A new study from the Sam Houston Institute of Technology concludes that the public is easily fooled by bogus news stories and made-up research from fictitious institutions. In a study conducted by Chad Stern, 5200 people of all age groups were shown a USA TODAY newspaper full of fictional news articles and studies, many inspired by the 1989 motion picture Back to the Future Part Il. 68% of the sample thought that some of the information was accurate;
18% believed that everything was accurate; while the remaining 29% got the joke immediately. Interestingly enough, 87% of the readers of this very article were unaware that the total percentages involved added up to more than 100%. demonstrating that basic math skills are continuing to decline. The remaining 22% didn't care.

We worked for months with USAID to build an $85,000,000 project to end TB in two regions of the Philippines. The project is funded by private money, the Philippine government, and matching USAID funds. It could provide a blueprint for eliminating TB worldwide--except it's...not happening.

This is the bad place
A four framed comic with the following text in white on a black background “all of us watching the phantom menace back in 1999: ‘Why does any of this matter? Who gives a shit about taxation of trade routes?!’” And the following  frames made up of 1) three images of George Lucas laughing, 2) Michael and Janet from the good place wherein Michael is looking astonished saying “George Lucas figured it out?” 3) seconds later from the second image wherein Michael is reaching for his stomach saying “George Lucas? This is a real low point,” and 4) seconds later from the third image showing Michael holding his stomach saying “yeah, this one hurts.”

Interim US attorney Ed Martin, whose office just fired a bunch of J6 prosecutors, is now telling Elon Musk they will prosecute anyone who "targets" DOGE employees. Presumably this is in response to a Wired article naming some, and a protest at OPM that occurred yesterday.
