Shame on @PBS for posting this divisive topic sentence: "In a move that reflected the party's divisions, Democrats offered a range of responses to President Donald Trump's Feb. 24 State of the Union address." Hard to want to include you in estate plan

@TeamTurboTax and @turbotax After years of using TT to load brokerage statements smoothly, this year's TT absolutely is not working. Many are complaining. You plan to fix the bug or do we get our money back? You're asking us to do it manually, and charging us.

@ABC I stopped watching ABC long ago, although at one time I was very close to producers, bureau folks, and top on-air reporters with the network (the old-fashioned kind who actually followed and reported facts.) Shameful how it has chosen collaboration.

COVID-19 is not just an acute event - it is a long-term vascular insult.
This study shows that the risk of ischemic stroke remains elevated for at least four years after SARS-CoV-2 infection.🧵

@gardnerakayla "Me and my colleagues" is shockingly bad grammar. "Me" is used only on the objective. As the subject of a sentence, it must be "I." @MSNOWNews maybe establish some standards.

Best of luck with this. 🥴

3300 Americans are expected to die of COVID this week. At the current wastewater levels, the US would be reporting 7M new cases per week if we had testing & data.

This is remarkably out-of-touch & “chronic absenteeism” will spiral out-of-control.

🔥10 waves
🔥Covid mortality rivals lung cancer
🔥8 infections/person by 2030
🔥Long Covid as catastrophic
🔥Death trajectories becoming complex
🔥"During Covid" as anti-science rhetoric
🔥Serious ppl take Covid seriously

@UjuAnya Please post on the better platform. Many are trying to leave here. I will want to follow you. This issue is imperative to face.

Read/copy/repost if you can
From an anonymous OPM employee on Reddit. submitted 3 hours ago by Throwaway918284: "I'm a current employee at the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). This is a throwaway account for obvious reasons. I’m posting this because people need to know what’s going on at OPM. I’ve been an OPM employee for nearly a decade and a Federal Employee for almost 20 years. I’ve never witnessed anything even remotely close to what’s happening right now. In short, there's a hostile takeover of the federal civil service.
Let me say this in no uncertain terms — OPM has been compromised and taken over. The very backbone of American Government, the HR of all HR in the U.S. Government has been taken over by outside politicals. In just five days, they managed to push aside dozens of non-political, career civil servants who were there specifically to prevent the civil service from becoming the President's henchmen.
The current Acting Director, Charles (Chuck) Ezell is a low-level branch chief. He's the friendliest “yes man” you'll ever meet. He never says no. It’s clear they pushed aside all the high-level non political civil servants who refused to do Donald Trump's bidding, until they found Chuck.
Under his name, they’ve sent numerous requests to all the agencies to collect information on gov't employees that they see as a threat to their agenda. Instructions say to send these lists to Amanda Scales. But Amanda is not actually an OPM employee, she works for Elon Musk. She wasn’t even properly cleared by OPM Personnel Security.
Our CIO, Melvin Brown, (also a non political career public servant) was pushed aside just one week into his tenure because he refused to setup email lists to send out direct communications to all career civil servants. Such communications are normally left up to each agency.
Instead, an on-prem (on-site) email server was setup. Someone literally walked into our building and plugged in an email server to our network to make it appear that emails were coming from OPM. It's been the one sending those various “test” message you've all seen. We think they're building a massive email list of all federal employees to generate mass RIF notices down the road.
The non-political civil servants here at OPM are watching helplessly as our government is being systematically dismantled bit by bit. Even the IGs are being fired to prevent them from investigating the numerous whistleblower complaints we've filed.
Please share this and tell the world that OPM is not the bad guy. We're just as helpless to stop this as the rest of our fellow public servants. Hopefully someone out there can help us, but it’s looking pretty grim."

@CalltoActivism Between the chaos in the new administration and lingering effects of Covid on humans, we are in for more of this. Tragic.

@AriSchulman Good report on Lawrence (for decades/life long DCA flyer worrying, but not there right now.) Maybe set yourself up on Blue Sky?

[Outbreak Updates @outbreakupdates]

Indiana just confirmed two massive H5N1 outbreaks in commercial poultry.

353,300 egg layers and 18,800 turkeys wiped out.

Over 370,000 birds gone in days.

The virus is active, spreading, and the hits to food production keep piling up.
