I gave her clothes.

Boxcars wearing a jacket with huge baggy short and a top that says "FLAT". She's carrying a handbag with a little Kirk plushie on it.

You may have noticed I switched back from 'Boxcar' to 'Boxcars' for her name, and it's because talking with a friend we agreed that it sounded better after all. Sorry for the confusion.

I personally think it would be totally cool if a judge DIDN'T, upon learning my client and I are both trans, go off on a rant, misgendering both of us, and threatening to take us into custody. I think that would be very cool.

Pritzker should absolutely say something here, but we’re going to see these scenes play out across the country, and the Democratic Party in general needs to come up with a response that doesn’t throw the people they’re encouraging to take the streets under the bus.

I've said it so many times. But the gap between the way the press depict a country who 'just looking for peace' versus said country regularly saying and doing the most inhumane, callous and disgusting shit you will ever witness.

Her anger then flared when Mr Loader told her she should stay in the kitchen making scones where she belonged, and not to go drinking with boys.

She left the table where they were drinking to collect a five-litre container of petrol from her garage, and poured it on Mr Loader before waving around her lighter.

Mr Loader said, "Go on, do it," before Walpole set him on fire.

This is Chicago, armed fascist thugs pointing guns at unarmed US citizens.

Armed officers in military-style gear confront a group of civilians during a tense outdoor standoff; one officer points a rifle at a young man who raises his hands defensively while others shout in the background, with trees and houses visible behind them.

the bifurcation of nouveau-billionaire fantasies of world domination and retreating into a bunker is par for the course for narcissism. when they look inside they do not understand what they see—a sucking emptiness which must be filled. if it can't fill the whole world, the world must be cut to size

I've contacted my senators today about KOSA! Have you?

Dieselbrain @dieselbrain.bsky.social · 4d

If you're like me and you are struggling to contact your senators re: KOSA via their phone lines this week, I recommend attempting to send physical letters or emails in the meantime.

Here is a script you can use to contact your reps!

www.commoncause.org/find-your-re...

Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [LOCATION]
I'm messaging to demand [SENATOR] oppose S. 1748, the Kids Online Safety Act, also known as KOSA. This broad legislation does not protect anyone and instead will be used to block any speech that the Trump administration’s partisan FTC disagrees with. It pushes the “duty of care” onto websites and social media platforms to remove content that is “harmful to children”. It would lead to overcompliance, mass censorship, and remove access to crucial information re: everything from mental health, LGBT topics, substance abuse, eating disorders and more.
Additionally, while large, corporate platforms like X can shoulder the weight of “duty of care”, smaller websites cannot, leading to greater and greater concentrations of power online into giant corporate platforms rather than small and medium sized businesses.
KOSA will not make kids safer. It will make the internet more dangerous for anyone who relies on it to learn, connect, or speak freely. Lawmakers should reject it, and fast.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
IF SENATOR COSPONSORED KOSA: Additionally, I want to remark on [SENATOR]’s cosponsorship of this bill. I think it is shameful that [SENATOR] has backed a bill as transparently bad as KOSA. This will not keep kids safe, it is an excuse to censor the free and open internet. I will not be voting for nor donating to [SENATOR] in any future campaigns if they do not drop their co-sponsorship of this bill, and I will encourage everyone in my life to do the same.
Do the right thing.

According to @fightchatcontrol.bsky.social the vote for Chat Control, which was supposed to be today, has been tabled by Denmark.

But does mention that there is another vote in December and to stay vigilant. After all, there are still multiple countries in favour, so keep saying you don't want it!
