Retired Medical Technologist, LIS Admn, who discovered rowing in her 50s and got a little obsessed. I do other stuff required for life. I cook, practice a little yoga, meditate, and enjoy my grandkids. Let's stay hopeful.

As a negotiator, I disagree that "...the best strategy in a negotiation is to convince the other side that you are crazy." It's a great way, in fact, to get the other party to get up and walk away from the table. I'm guessing we'll be seeing many of our historical global partners do just that.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company. It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create. They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms. I’m happy to invest and/or help

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.
