I promise you following these threads will lead you to a local Landback or language revitalization/preservsyion initiative, fundraisers for local Indigenous communities, scholarships & community centers that need recurring donations to sustain them, a series of #MMIWG2S+ to be brought home.

And they were all into Indigenous genocide in a big way

Good lord, can you imagine the social media beefs the Founding Fathers would get into? Aaron Burr: You're saying I can tell everyone in the world what a complete ho Hamilton is?

Ooooh this is so cool!

"This system will absolutely work as a series of checks and balances as long as there are no strong political parties, see you later, gotta go form a bunch of strong political parties because I *hate that bewigged asshole right over THERE*" galaxy brain Founding Fathers work.

Your occasional reminder that the Founding Fathers were not psychic democracy angels descended from Heaven but problem children spot-welding a first of its kind system together while both (often) being drunk and (always) hating each other.

What I hear every time there’s a new “rogue ai” announcement is “once more we’ve unleashed malware into the wild to see what would happen. We’re not sorry and we’ll do it again.”

This isn't a case of abusing some loophole or misusing discretionary authority. The law is unambiguous and he's breaking it, simple as that. If Congress isn't going to do anything about breaking the law that already exists, passing another law to make it double-illegal accomplishes nothing.

It's already illegal. Congress banned it near-unanimously in 2022. That law allows the ban to be lifted only if Russia withdraws from Ukraine. He's simply breaking the law that's already on the books.

$50 more brings me to $440, thank you so much! About 16 hours until due- so I would deeply appreciate any help you can spare! And please keep sharing- folks like me depend on many kinds of support!

(Also, fascists tend to spend huge amounts of time obsessing over their public image so poking them with the slightest bit of goofiness, eg couch fornication, will often cause them to crash out and spend weeks trying to fix _that_ instead of doing new evils. Which is also fun to watch.)

The fascists being made fun of will not change their behavior, but to communities, knowing there are other people out there who hate Thiel or Musk or Trump's guts is _hugely_ important. It gives them permission to show their own contempt, and it swells from there.

I know it's early, but I'm afraid of how much worse it will get the next few months, and I want her to have a good Christmas.

Falco needs extra help rn. It's his birthday, and behind the scenes stuff has some of his most dedicated helpers multitasking furiously. Help one of my favorite medically vulnerable queerdos survive. It would do my heart good.

I can lecture on that subject without notes, and often do.

I've had two surgeries for infected kidney stones recently, with a third coming up. Though the similar incident a few years back was worse - that time it was MRSA.

When I do ask for painkillers, they're a lot more likely to listen these days given how many things I've been documented going through without asking for painkillers. But I shouldn't have had to.
