It’s Remember the Titans because I’m so basic and don’t watch enough movies.

A multicoloured graphic is seen. Against a cream background, the title states, "DO YOU NEED A MEASLES BOOSTER?"
#DrKimsKids

A thick multicoloured arrow is seen on the left, with multicoloured text on the right, as follows:

BORN BEFORE 1957
- NOPE. You were probably already exposed to measles.

VACCINATED BETWEEN 1957-1962
- MAYBE. Check with your doctor.

VACCINATED BETWEEN 1963-1967
- YES! The measles vaccine you received is considered ineffective and you will need a booster.

VACCINATED BETWEEN 1968-1989
- MAYBE. Check with your doctor.

VACCINATED AFTER 1989
- NOPE. If you received two doses, your vaccines are considered effective.

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

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Conquered my phone anxiety and had a shaky but very nice conversation this morning with someone in my congressman’s office about the freeze. It’s okay to be afraid. It’s okay not to sound exactly how you hoped you would.

The man behind this is: Senate President Stuart Adams He represents Farmington, Layton, Kaysville and Bountiful. This is the last bastion for Democracy in Utah. He is trying to take it away.

I know it’s important to keep my voice out there and keep doing what I do. But I feel, like, embarrassed hawking my little poems while so many are in fear for their lives.

As the transgender community continues to fight for civil rights in the U.S., one of the most common arguments against progress is that transgender people are a recent phenomenon. But it’s a fight that’s been happening here for decades and around the world for centuries. ⤵️

🔊 PSA for nondisabled people 🔊 It's time to step the FUCK up if you wanna be an ally. ASL interpretation is being targeted by right wing cry baby douchebags. Shut this shit down when you see it. SPEAK UP. This barrage of ASL hate is heavier than usual.
Quote tweet by Richard Hanania from 1/11/2025. The quoted tweet, which has a community note, is by Christopher F. Rufo on 1/10/2025.

Christopher's tweet reads: "I'm sorry, but we have to stop with the ridiculous sign language interpreters, who turn serious press conferences into a farce. There are closed captions on all broadcast channels and streaming services. No wild human gesticulators necessary."

The community note (which has supporting .gov links) reads: "Fact: Not all broadcast channels have closed captions, which isn't universally effective anyway; many Deaf rely on ASL for comprehension as ASL offers nuances captions miss. This is part of ADA requirements, passed by GOP."

Richard's tweet reads: "The community note shows that the process has been captured by the disability lobby. It’s not about access, CC works fine. They have to pretend like it doesn’t to force this absurdity onto us. And the ADA amendments of 2008 have led to a nightmare, as I explain in my book."
