Since the SAVE act passed the house here’s your regular reminder not only that this act will disenfranchise married/divorced women, trans ppl, rural voters but also that ALL voter ID laws do so. The Save Act just does it on a larger scale @rewirenewsgroup.com rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/04/01/o...

Even if you’re not on TikTok you’ve seen this trend: “unalive” for dead; “segs” for sex. It’s cutesy and a little clever, but research shows it might also be bad for free expression—and self-censorship around sex and the body can harm girls and young women the most.
