- Reposted by Lissa480#altcitizens Call to Action! We are hearing rumblings that all institute-specific websites are going to be centralized under the NIH Office of the Director. Who knows what will be kept and what will be deleted. We need those folks who are good at archiving/saving websites to take action here!!!

- Reposted by Lissa480Do you know what seedcorn is? It's the portion of corn, usually of good quality, set aside to use for seeds for the future rather than for food (or animal feed) now. Killing off the Washington Post's books and arts coverage to save money now is very much like eating the cultural seedcorn.
- Reposted by Lissa480Kinda shocked that the most successful campaign of 2025 crushed both the GOP and the Dem establishment with a simple "here are the problems and here are the things I'm going to do about it" message, and what the establishment took away from it was to lean into social media sniping and Newsom Thought
- Reposted by Lissa480Swear to god, ICE could just announce they're leaving a city but not leave and the media will just stop covering that city completely even though ICE never left. It's what ICE and the media did with LA and they're doing it with Minneapolis too

- Reposted by Lissa480Senator Katie Britt would like us all to know that she really really really doesn't want to use children as bait or for DHS to go off the chain even though she authored the legislation that allowed them to do just that and has supported Trump 100% of the time: www.nytimes.com/2026/02/05/u...
- Reposted by Lissa480Heads up University of Florida, Gainsville, students and staff (and surrounding community), measles exposure is being investigated. Spead the word because we know Florida’s Surgeon General won’t. Measles is best prevented through vaccination! www.news4jax.com/news/local/2...
- Reposted by Lissa480This is a remarkable @nytimes.com split screen: A huge 3,526 word + photos profile on Sen Britt who "can't stop thinking about the boy ICE detained" But Rep Jaoquin Castro- who actually got Liam Ramos out of detention & back home- gets no interview, no pix, just 116 words inside a story. WOW.
- Reposted by Lissa480I know we have some 🔥 senators on the Democratic team. Can one of them, please, step up and throw their hat in the ring for leader? Stop complaining in private because this is intolerable. @democrats.senate.gov
- Reposted by Lissa480Agent: These guys were all threatening us yesterday with hand guns. ... Agent: *Hand* guns, like threatening to shoot us. Reporter: You mean like with hand symbols? A: Pulling them out, trying to engage us. R: Pulling out literal guns? A: No. Making... assuming we were going to do something.
- Reposted by Lissa480Don't worry, trans people, if you think Democrats are constantly waffling on human rights (they are) or Gavin Newsom is a Nazi-aligned segregationist (he is), you're just paranoid! What you saw you did not see.

- Reposted by Lissa480This is why I beseeched the Millennial NOT to take her new (as of June 2025) husband’s name in ANY recorded or official capacity. If she wants to use it on mailboxes, calendars, XMas cards, family events, great. But DON’T make it legal unless you want to lose your identity.

- Reposted by Lissa480happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.
- Reposted by Lissa480Folks, please retweet this. Trump, Noem, and the rest are lying everywhere about what ICE is doing in MN. We have to do everything we can to make sure the country has a clear picture of what is going on.

- Reposted by Lissa480A white man in Dillard, Oregon was arrested for stopping people on the freeway to demand at gunpoint that they tell him if they were citizens. He shot and missed one + attempted to get another in his truck to bring to police. Before his spree, he called local PD to complain about "foreign" people.

It shows how Epstein was able to woo high-profile scholars with witty banter, promises of research funding, and help from a well-connected literary agent, despite not having a degree himself. www.insidehighered.com/news/faculty...
