TN is considering a new bill that allows parents to sue large platforms that allow "material harmful to minors"— including sculpture, drawings, photos, music or video games— that describe or depict nudity, sex or "excessive violence"
The censorship that started with "porn" is coming for everything.

It's wild to me how in the Lehigh Valley chicken and waffles has become fried chicken on a waffle. PA Dutch chicken and waffles was the the thing here. You could get it anywhere. It would take a special trip now.

Nine years ago, Witgar began to notice something unusual. Veronika played with tree branches she found on the ground and started using them to scratch herself.
Not occasionally, but systematically and repeatedly.

Cow Tools!
We have lived alongside cows for nearly 10,000 years.
We breed them and exploit them
It is now, only now, that we have discovered THEY CAN USE TOOLS

I've not created a from scratch meme in ages. Life didn't have it in the cards for me. Also, I think memes are for blue wave and old people. I am old. I'm also a person that believes words have meaning. Words mean things. The butterfly man still speaks across audiences & time.

This is a parody of an IWW anti-KKK poster made at the hate group's height in the 1920s. Today's occupying Federal forces are an outgrowth of the KKK and other white supremacist groups.
One emulates the antique paper look of the original, the other is black and white to be printed out and posted.

I get it. It's everywhere in these vendor supplied to uni tools, that's not even accounting for outright AI tools.
I don't blame them.

It's worth your time to call Hilton to cancel your account with them. 1-800-446-6677. Here's why:
They asked me if it was because of the ICE thing. I said it was. Then they suggested I wait a couple days to see if they were going to change course.
The pressure is getting to them. Let's keep it up.
