This is a good thread. For email, I'd add @fastmail.com (which I have used for years) and the upcoming @thunderbird.net email as alternatives to Protonmail, as I think they're going to be a lot more usable for most regular users.

May you never ever ever land in the hands of someone who doesn’t appreciate you. May their eyes be glued closed if they dare to sweep their head in your direction.

In 1854, after watching the federal government deploy 2000 federal troops and spend $40,000 sending Anthony Burns back into slavery, Boston's Amos Adams Lawrence said “we went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.”
Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

Poll taxes are illegal, but that won't stop them from trying. Requiring an ID to vote is a suppression tactic, which is why they are working hard to put them in place.
I hope they don't succeed, but I'm preparing in case they do.

Games are being played with your right to vote. I know it's not possible for everyone, but I'm making sure I got all my paper work in order. Voter registration, certified copies of my birth certificate, Real ID, and U.S. passport.
And the start of early voting is marked on my calendar. No excuses.

I’ve always said Diahann Carroll and Patti LaBelle as Whitley and Dwayne’s moms was the most inspired casting in history!

Well... I have been hit in the face for the second time in my life, I think. Boxing classmate threw the punch at head; supposed to aim for body. Thankfully my nose is not damaged. 😅
