  1. John Deere’s shareholders rejected a proposal to abolish DEI projects in that company. I think shareholders voting in favor of the proposal numbered less than 2%. So, I am not giving up hope. https://www.reuters.com/business/investors-farm-equipment-maker-deere-reject-anti-dei-resolution-2025-02-26/
  2. Fatty isn’t allowed to be surprised when Republicans decide to confiscate all firearms. Yep, that follows. He was warned.
  3. This ought to be mentioned.
  4. Brought to you by Republicans. https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2025/02/deportation-entertainment-trump/681836/?gift=Je3D9AQS-C17lUTOnl2W8NFvoPDPEwOi5ROMYdnPgrE&utm_source=copy-link&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=share Gift article, reporting on a reality type show that seeks to cast deportee suffering as entertainment.
  5. My daughter knows I post on Surly. She is angry enough, already.
  6. Daughter was about to start her doctoral studies; (she’s been doing research at UT Health in SA,) and had a meeting today in which she learned there is an official “pause” at the university she was committed to, while other universities are declaring they will not honor their commitments.
  7. Research universities have decided not to honor their doctoral commitments. Our oldest is despondent. Fuck you all, you shitastically moronic Republicans.
  8. Putting aside gerrymandering for a minute, what’s your reaction to the Republican Party ignoring court orders, @Ag with kids? https://apnews.com/article/trump-usaid-foreign-aid-freeze-judge-f995a8ccf69fc62826f69442196e94ed
  9. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zs9wPTcDAUY Robbie Fulks singing “I Told Her Lies”
  10. There is an exact term for this: “Stochastic terrorism, the repeated use of hate speech or other vilifying, dehumanizing rhetoric by a political leader or other public figure that inspires one or more of the figure’s supporters to commit hate crimes or other acts of violence against a targeted person, group, or community.” Anyone arguing Republicans aren’t guilty of stochastic terrorism is fucking divorced from reality.
  11. Cheering on pedophiles is a Republican thing.
  12. The initial push back on Mace’s claim was the disbelief she took her allegations to the SC AG, Alan Wilson, and nothing was done. Wilson and Mace are both thought to seek the governor’s office in the next election.
  13. How things stand today: Two federal orders.
  14. The hang up is that paste achieves no result, unless I paste in the link icon. When I hit enter, after pasting with no result, that is, hitting enter to the blank screen makes my cursor go down a line. (Actually two lines). It’s borked. Edited to say my eldest will like the video, as the paste function works in text. 🤷🏻‍♂️

  16. I have no clue what on mobile means. I access surly through safari. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSZm-ifamKw my options are drag, or choose, files, and other media.
  17. Really sorry to be a nuisance, @immamac. Thanks for embedding that video. I can’t post a url unless I open the link icon, which posts the link, but doesn’t embed a video. If I try to paste a url into the response field, there is no effect. Nothing happens. On an iPad.
  18. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwr_3JDMhYI nope
  19. I am most grateful for your advice, Buck.
  20. Thiel’s guru, Yarwin, prefers to cast the executive’s role as a monarchy.
  21. Check out the DOGE thread for more reporting on Coristine. A vile human being. In other news: ”U.S. Rep. Buddy Carter (R-Ga.) has introduced a bill in the House of Representatives authorizing President Donald Trump to negotiate a deal with Denmark to "purchase or otherwise acquire Greenland." Carter has even proposed a new name for the island: "Red, White, and Blueland."” https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/rep-buddy-carter-proposes-renaming-greenland-red-white-blueland.amp
  22. Enjoying this extended thunderstorm. The dog is curled up on my feet.
  23. https://www.dailykos.com/story/2025/2/11/2302978/-Muskovite-Update-Coristine-Ran-Image-Sharing-Site-Linked-to-URLs-Referencing-Pedophilia-and-the-KKK Grain of salt definitely required, as Daily Kos has a rating of “mixed” and Muskwatch is unvetted. I guess openly racist folks get no benefit of the doubt from me..
