Spelling things different ways to bring across different connotations and imply different moods is fun, and if my idea of fun is cringe, so be it.
as a non-binary person I also find “folx” to be intensely cringe
“folks” is a perfectly good non-gendered term and you just decided to Hot Topic it to be edgy

Important to add that episode 3 opens with Charles Guiteau's ill-fated stint at the Oneida free love commune, where the women disliked him so much they nicknamed him "Charles Get-Out" (a real historical detail)! Man, if you can't even get laid at the Gilded Age Fuck Farm . . .

This is a hell of a way to say "prosecutors often can't make their case under the extremely meager safeguards applied to them, so they want to be able to scrap those safeguards and just have their rich buddies jail whoever."
It comes after our @jessicaelgot.bsky.social revealed that criminals will be stopped from “gaming the system” by choosing trial by jury to increase chances of proceedings collapsing - and that govt was planning radical changes to limit jury trials by next election.

If you're an author being published by small and tiny presses, please shamelessly promote your work, however much your temperament might militate against it. I've seen many wonderful authors at this level so quickly forgotten when they die, you deserve all the readers you can get while you're alive.
