$150m could continue the State and Tribal Wildlife Grant program (due to be zeroed out in the president’s budget) for 2+ more years. It’s the only grant to states dedicated for nongame species conservation.

  Two of those jets cost around $150 million to build; i.e., enough money to fund my current NSF grant for the next 900 years.

in california they let dogs play basketball. teams of nothing but golden retrievers. they're pushing the human children out of sports because the rulebook doesn't explicitly say they can't play.

I had been putting off watching Sound of Music with my daughter because I didn’t want to explain Nazis to a little kid. Suddenly I feel like this is a relevant time for 3rd graders to learn a healthy skepticism of authority.

i am going to put a finer point on this: executive orders are not laws. and they certainly are not royal decrees. they are interpretations of existing law for the purposes of enforcement. the fact that so many people are treating them as laws is actually driving me a bit insane.
- jamelle jamellebouie.net · Feb 12
  i mean, the president's executive order isn't a goddamn law! as far as this doctor is concerned, who cares what the president says!

If you’re a federal employee, you should know this is a lie. Congress hasn’t appropriated these monies and so it’s literally not there to be spent. Also, federal agencies are limited by law to a max $25K payout in the case of restructuring.
