I'm mourning the evil we do first and foremost but I am also mourning the good we sacrifice to do it.
If you divide this by 50, it's 74 million per state, which is the annual budget for the entire Philadelphia library system.
We're burning a major city's library system *per state* of money on murder in a hundred hours.
There's at least one case where they sold a kid's phone just to a nearby resaler, so I kinda expect that's happening a lot.
Oh no my gender is executive dysfunction huh
See the reason why @notalawyer.bsky.social is right and @michaelhobbes.bsky.social is wrong is because Football is an outdoor activity, which is cool and good for you.
To make the perfect analogy, speed running is a nerdy nonsense thing like D&D but football is more like larping. Objectively cool!
"George Washington would have attacked on Christmas. The founding fathers were all about tactically efficient warfighting."
(you should actually consider that you are a terrible person if you accept any excuses for killing children btw. Just the poverty excuse is pretty easy to disprove and I have been dealing with people mad their children had to see "a homeless" and I'm losing it)
If you have more sympathy for a hypothetical poor soldier bombing children to pay for college than you do for the real poor human you saw sleeping on the street in the cold, you might want to consider if you actually are a terrible person.
If it was actually evil or "reality-eschewing" to call the NYT a fascist rag, someone would have gotten a glowing profile in the NYT for doing so by now.
I'm gonna go with Iranian schoolgirls not being my enemy or people who pose any particular threat to me who got killed for no reason.
God and not even incredibly popular Stucky. 10,000 hits???
People, find/replace your fanfics!
Art matters. And what do we do with things that matter? We protect them.
Here is information about H.R. 7661, a US book banning bill that explicitly targets books about trans people, and what you can do right now to help stop it.
Part of the reason the whole country hasn't been screaming about trans Kansans who drive being made criminals overnight is because there's so much else that's unconstitutional and horrifying.
But part of it is because it's happening to trans people.
That's the 34th most populous state declaring trans people to not have papers.
So you know. Bad.
fucking genocidal
Yup! They all now cost $5 despite also now all being sponsored. The Free Library Foundation unfortunately doesn't take the opinions of staff into account.
The pick for One Book One Philly is gonna be really ironically announced by a fascist friendly mayor and the prosperity gospel pastor we have destroying our library system
Only two years ago...
the phrase "left-of-center" here is no doubt the lie he tells himself but it's still a lie. this man is a right-wing anti-trans agitator and that any editor published this bullshit is so embarrassing for all involved.
Things can be complicated and also suck, I guess. That's all I got.
I'm not like, gonna stop watching Dropout because of the copaganda crossover. It's still, ultimately, less evil than most platforms.
But I'm also not gonna say I am not disappointed.
Taking LAPD money is shitty. It just is! I'm also on city payroll and thus not dissimilar. But that sucks too, imo.
(and like, more so, because like, you *should* yell fuck the queen at the queen.)
100%, though the more general evangelical connection is also there cuz you gotta funnel people into sports based missions trips and the FCA.
When coaches have to travel and follow an absurd schedule, who else can coach but people with fake jobs (coughcoughpastors).
They gotta believe that though, because parents have to believe their kids will be better off than them and what other route to that is left in our society?
College is a loan trap, the union jobs are folding, and the kid's coach/pastor says this is God's purpose for the kid!
More horrifying fact you can't use those cheat codes legally if the pharmacy knows you are on Medicaid because it counts as a "bribe" so when I worked for CVS Specialty we had to *not* tell a lot of people who needed it about it.
Is @vicmmic.bsky.social the first president of a streaming service to appear as an actor in a show on another service?
A week ago I found out that the grant I was confident would fund our spring mural will not, bc we're 2 blocks too deep into Kensington. This STINKS.
This project rocks bc it's community driven, biodiversity-focused (& more! read on!)
We're raising money to make it happen

Oops. Turns out Persona, Discordβs age-verification service, was secretly screening selfies against government watchlists AND accessible by the feds. It's backed by Peter Thiel.
