Cool and normal guys. Not like they're avoiding this place due to all the fucking Nazis or anything.

That's the idea, scare them into compliance. Just like the doctors in anti-abortion states. First, it's a hundred grand, then it's prison, then it's death. The only way to stop it is for average people to take back the government by any means necessary.

There's also the fact that Rowling has been fairly explicit that the money she earns through Harry Potter she's putting into anti-trans lobbying efforts.

There's a difference, IMHO, between an artist with a shitty private life, and an artist using their money to fund regressive social change.

I wasn't intending to turn this into a thread, but it seems to have happened anyway.
It's about the great plague on our lives: the extreme wealth of a tiny number of people.
And what to do about it.

How much more evidence do we need? The ultra-rich and the governments supporting them will destroy everything for the sake of profit, power and pride. Nothing is precious to them - not human life, not the living world - except their own wealth and status. Our survival depends on resisting them.

If you get into a β€œwho can cut taxes more” battle with the GOP, you’re going to lose because they are far more shameless and antagonistic to the idea of living in a functioning society.

Don’t concede to their framing that taxes are nothing but a problem to be solved.

Russia tried this in 2011 - it only lasted until 2014 when they adopted permanent Standard Time citing increased car accidents and poor adolescent mental health.

The US tried this in 1974 and cut it short after they discovered the impact of delayed winter sunrises.

Bets on how long will it last?

Screenshot of text from an email, which says:

Friendly reminder that we did not spring forward in Arizona yesterday, we maintain permanent Mountain Standard Time (MST) year-round. The East Coast did spring forward one hour from Eastern Standard Time (EST) to Eastern Daylight Time (EDT). So now instead of being two hours ahead us, you now observe three hours ahead of us.

So I can be available either at 5pm EDT (2pm MST) or at 3pm MST (6pm EDT). Please let me know which, thanks!

It’s that magical time of year again, when Arizonans have to explain to other states their own self-inflected clock confusion. Ditch DST! Restore permanent Standard Time!

Here is a map of Canada and the US showing the ideal time zone boundaries. Most British Columbians would experience optimal health with permanent Pacific Standard Time (UTC–8), not permanent Pacific Daylight Time (UTC–7).

I just realized I changed the graphic to reflect "pacific daylight saving time" but forgot to change the abbreviation above it.

Everything about "springing forward" is so disruptive & annoying on so many levels; this part is minor, but still an annoyance.

It should read "PDT" not PST. πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™€οΈ
