Had to have the very real conversation in an editorial about whether or not we should self-censor going forward as to not paint targets on our and the writers’ backs 🙃 (we said not until they start banging on our door)

The waiting period after submitting is just nails on a chalkboard but paired with nervous excitement

So…I’ve been spending the last several weeks filling my bookshelves and I highly recommend those that can, do.

Today, President Trump rescinded Executive Order 14087 signed by former President Biden in October 2022.

What did Executive Order 14087 do?

It lowered drug costs for Americans on Medicare and Medicaid—working class Americans.

This only benefits big pharma.

“TikTok wasn’t a real job”

Babe, if it pays your bills it’s a real job. This is late stage capitalism. What the fuck even is a “real job” anymore?

If Congress actually gave a damn about our data privacy, they would’ve passed a sweeping data privacy bill, not a bill targeting TikTok.

Can someone explain why TikTok is a bigger national security concern than a social media platform run by a South African technofeudal oligarch actively interfering in our elections and sabotaging our national interests here and abroad?

I love that I didn’t even have to make an argument for my friends to ditch messenger for our gc and switch to discord - they came to that conclusion before I could even bring it up

What’s an actually good #facebook alternative? Something for sharing w friends/family - not content production. That has messaging. And an app. The sooner I have something like it - the sooner I can leave it

As a person that occasionally likes to listen to Carrie - I feel like this shouldn’t be that shocking or disappointing from a woman who on her debut album has the song “Jesus Take the Wheel”

Red Note is a vibe honestly, the first video I got was a Luigi edit, followed closely by a Vi x Caitlin Arcane edit. Like, I didn’t have to actively place those bricks - they were already there.

Nebraska Republicans announce a new anti-trans bathroom ban and in the press conference, confirm this is explicitly religiously motivated.

"The idea of separation of church and legislature is one of the things that really pisses me off."

In 2006, President Jimmy Carter published a NYT bestseller entitled “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid.”

In 2017, he called the lack of universal healthcare a “national scandal.”

Some of those who are honoring him with words today would smear him if he were a candidate today.
