Trump is laying off half of the people who work for the Department of Education with an eye on eliminating the department completely.

Just a reminder: Nothing great was ever been built or achieved with stupid people.

Honestly, do American’s realise that they’re the laughing stock of the world?

(This only applies to dipshit MAGA cultists. The rest of you are great, & you have my sympathy for living under the Orange Fuhrer & his stooge Apartheid Clyde.)

in reply to Stacey

From what I know, they sincerely believe either a) the world admires them and their orange leader and wants to be as enlightened as they are, b) that they're better than everyone else anyway or they c) have little to no interest in the rest of the world anyway because they're only focus is the US because nothing else matters to them anyway.

And with many of them it's a and b and c combined.



Doctor motivated me to start running again, did a level test (2 min warm up, 5 min run, 2 min cool down). The first run in 107 days did NOT go well.
in reply to Instant Arcade

I can imagine it was rough, but good for you for getting after itβ€” congratulations!
in reply to Hiro

@hiro Of course I was at the doctor's because I was sick.
Literally Ill advised - LOL.

Yeah, the back of my throat was getting clogged with whatever was shedding from my sinuses. I don't recommend it, but I guess this might be starting to shift it all.

I suddenly find myself recalling the morning in elementary school when we arrived for class and found graffiti all over the school.

It was a last name. The same last name over and over, on walls, the handball courts, even on the seats of the swings.

It was the last name of one of the kids we went to school with.

He got in trouble.

in reply to Emily Velasco

Sometimes kids aren’t too bright. At my school some kids broke into the animation class and stole two 8 mm cameras (this was long ago). The cameras were recovered and when the teacher had the film developed the kids had all filmed each other.
in reply to Emily Velasco

And that kid... Well, he grew up and became President of the United States.

I forget which of you excellent people taught me the phrase "I can't repair the roof because I'm using all my energy mopping up the floor" recently, but it has lived rent-free in my head ever since. Incredible summary of chronic illness life.

Maybe they should have done a bit more time in school and less time in the Gym.


The FBI has requested that Citibank place 30-day administrative freezes on accounts held by nonprofits that were recipients of the green bank funding. It also asked the bank to freeze other nonprofit and state government agency accounts, including Habitat for Humanity, United Way, the Colorado Clean Energy Fund, and New York State’s Department of Taxation and Finance.

We had roof work done and they finished yesterday and I promised my dog last night there would be no more hammering and they are back today because the new roof is leaking and the worst part is I lied to my dog.

Elecia White reshared this.

in reply to Chris White

I was paranoid about my new roof leaking, but it's been tested pretty well in the last couple of months and thankfully it's been okay. Dogs were not disappointed.

Weirdest part is that I can barely hear the rain now.

in reply to Chris White

Your dog forgives you
But might have some weird random association with hammering on the roof

Rich text editing on Discourse! I think that having to write Markdown directly has been one of the biggest real impediments for existing forums to move to Discourse, as I see it. I prefer writing raw Markdown, but most "normal" people would prefer a rich text editor. So happy to see this happening!

Trump admin cancels $21 million in funding for schools & food banks to buy from Az farmers tucsonsentinel.com/local/repor…
The U.S. Department of Agriculture is cancelling roughly $1 billion in already-promised spending on local food purchases for schools and food banks nationwide, including $21 million in funding for schools and food banks to buy from Arizona farmers.

"As Trump guts the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget.

Really think about how twisted this all is."

Tools of authoritarianism are never single-use. Every suppression emboldens the next. Every time American citizens accept that sacrificing freedom is the cost of safety, they move further into a future where safety is an illusion, reserved only for those who never dared to speak.

Donald Trump says eggs are free now.

At least that's the rumor we should be spreading if any of you are still on twitter or facebook. I want see MAGAs showing up at the store for free eggs. They're gullible enough.



These people have absolutely no idea what they’re doing.

β€œThe Social Security Administration late Wednesday abandoned plans it was considering to end phone service for millions of Americans filing retirement and disability claims after The Washington Post reported that Elon Musk’s U.S. DOGE Service team was weighing the change to root out alleged fraud.”

My dad passed and I need his SSA form to file his taxes. His online account is locked. I can’t get through on the phone. What now?!
in reply to Scott P βœ…

@saprentice @madrobin bad advice. True story, my dad passed at 48. His widow (my stepmother) did not file taxes for that year. Several years later, they caught up with her and took her badly needed tax refund and she still had a huge debt. Took years to get a refund again. And she had a minor child.
in reply to Army Girl

@ArmyGirl @madrobin
Yes. Was half joking. But .. I wonder if the IRS can go after a child in the same way they could go after a spouse? (Were they filing jointly, so it was really her taxes as well?) Also likely depends on the way the estate is handled, and if there’s any money to pay the taxes that may be due. Lots of room for variation on this theme.

Caveat: I’m not a lawyer, and don’t play one on TV.

in reply to Scott P βœ…

@saprentice @ArmyGirl They can go after the estate. I might just ballpark the numbers. Waited for over an hour on the phone with SSA already before I had to leave.
