I want to post a follow-up picture of Sheev Palpatine saying, "Ironic", but that meme won't hold forever, unlike the Endor landing codes.

Assuming it's some Deplorable incel nerd shit, based on the first post. Probably about Obama or something. :)

Don’t listen to the naysayers!
Keep it up.
You’re doing swell! 👍
Copy and pasting is very, very hard.
 
Construction contracts should only be awarded on the basis of graft. :)


Gummint contracts seem to be. Look up the NYC housing authority windows replacement scam . . . I mean, contracts. It's a good read.
 
Federal health workers are expressing fear and alarm after a website called “DEI Watch List” published the photos, names and public information of a number of workers across health agencies, describing them at one point as “targets.”

It’s unclear when the website, which lists mostly Black employees who work in agencies primarily within the Department of Health and Human Services, first appeared

“Offenses” for the workers listed on the website include working on diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, donating to Democrats and using pronouns in their bios.

“The tone is aggressive. It’s threatening consequences if we are not obedient. It’s asking us to report co-workers who aren’t complying,” said a CDC physician who wasn’t authorized to speak to reporters. “There’s a lot of fear and panic.”
pure nazi-esque bullying scare tactics that are especially intimidating in today's political, ignorant climate that's embracing threats and encouraging violence towards people they want seen as "targets". That headline was later changed to "dossiers"

Just the typical Hisarpy racist white-supremacist ranting. So, yeah pretty close.
 
more ugly confusion rendering the names of women and people of color being covered up at the NSA:

President Donald Trump’s sweeping anti-diversity executive action struck again – this time in the halls of the National Cryptologic Museum – where staff were ordered to cover up displays celebrating women and people of color who served at the National Security Agency, according to media reports.

Part of that confusion extended to the national museum, which taped sheets of brown paper over plaques in its Hall of Honor devoted to women and people of color. The Fort Meade, Maryland-based museum acknowledged covering up the plaques of the honorees, which are described as “Trailblazers in U.S. Cryptologic History,” and said in a social media post over the weekend that it had corrected the “mistake”

"My jaw dropped, my eyes bulged," former NSA employee Larry Pfeiffer, who spent two decades at the agency, told Politico. "Like one of those Warner Brothers' cartoons."
it's the stupidity causing the confusion that led to 'the mistake'
"There was absolutely never an intention to cover up parts of our history," said Thomas, who spent over four decades with the NSA and was at the museum to meet with the outraged retirees this week. “As soon as we became aware [of it], we said, 'Oh, that was not what was intended.’”

Trump Orders NASA to Purge All Mentions of Women in Leadership On Its Websites

In a directive sent out just days after Trump's inauguration, NASA personnel were commanded to excise all mentions of anything "specifically targeting" women on the space agency's public websites, 404 Media reports.

"Per NASA HQ direction, we are required to scrub mentions of the following terms from our public sites by 5pm ET today," the directive reads. "This is a drop everything and reprioritize your day request."

The list of verboten terms includes "DEIA," "accessibility," "indigenous people," "environmental justice," and finally: "anything specifically targeting women," such as "women in leadership, etc."trump hand-picked Janet Petro as the space agency's acting head, and under his presidency she has this to say:
"These programs divided Americans by race, wasted taxpayer dollars, and resulted in shameful discrimination," Petro wrote in a memo about the agency's termination of diversity programs.
however, she sang an entirely opposite tune back in 2021 as director of the Kennedy Space Station:

a 2021 interview: "At NASA and Kennedy Space Center, our commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility has been paramount to mission success. The entire NASA leadership team stands behind this commitment," Petro said. "KSC has embraced the link between diverse teams and innovation," she added.

Astronomers are expressing disappointment and alarm as the federally-funded Rubin Observatory altered the biography of renowned astronomer Vera Rubin, for whom the facility is named, on its website. The amended version curtails her legacy of championing women in science and removes all mentions of the observatory's efforts to reduce barriers for women and other historically underrepresented groups in the field.

On Jan. 27, a portion of Rubin's bio titled "She advocated for women in science" was removed entirely before being republished later that day in a diluted form, ProPublica reported. As of publication of this story Tuesday (Feb. 11), the altered bio still excludes a paragraph that originally read: "Science is still a male-dominated field, but Rubin Observatory is working to increase participation from women and other people who have historically been excluded from science. Rubin Observatory welcomes everyone who wants to contribute to science, and takes steps to lower or eliminate barriers that exclude those with less privilege."

Other pages on the observatory's website, including the jobs and staff bio pages, have also been modified to erase mentions of diversity and inclusion efforts

ffs

Beyond her scientific achievements, Rubin also paved the way for women in science. Perhaps most notably, in 1964, she battled to gain access to observe at the famed Palomar Observatory in California, becoming the first woman officially allowed to use its telescopes. Colleagues recall that when Rubin noticed the only restroom at the observatory was labeled "MEN," she cut out a tiny paper skirt and taped it to the image of a man on the door. "She turned around and said, 'Now you have a ladies' room' and then she got to work — that was Vera Rubin," reads a 2021 statement from former Carnegie Science President Eric Isaacs.
 
Trump identifies as the diaper-wearing grandson of a draft-dodging Bavarian pimp with gingivitis.

Yay for DEI!
