Do they make mask extenders or whatever you call those things that keep the loops off your ears that aren't ugly plastic? My migraines make my scalp so sensitive that sometimes it's uncomfortable even to wear my glasses. I've been using hair clips but they keep breaking.

I heard some people act as though it was overly dramatic to do hurriedly download all of the government data that we might need before the new administration takes over.

I read this quote a decade ago in the book, “The News: a Users Manual” and it stuck with me enough that I went back to find it. In short, it posits that a would-be dictator could suppress the news or flood the zone with a tsunami of nonsense. By either strategy, it kills people’s resolve to act.

This entire thread is Islamophobia, racism, and ableism. Please report it.
Lots of hot "Democrats have to abandon all wokeness and liberalism and become Republicans" takes out there. Most of them utter bullshit.
But oh boy, do Dems need to file for an immediate and acrimonious divorce from the Let's Go Hamas Asylum!
Like, now. So important.

Fun fact: there are more than twice as many cis white women in the United States than Black people, Indigenous people, trans people, Muslims, Arab Americans, and Jews COMBINED.
And a majority of cis white women voted for Trump.

Apologies, Blueskees, but the suppression over on the @ app has really cranked up this week, so I'm going to momentarily flood your feeds with some mutual aid/trans/immigration posts just to make sure the information gets where it needs to go. But don't worry, there's a fun one at the end.

If Republicans are OK with the "Roman Salute" that Musk did then please start using it from now. Exactly how he did it. Begin your press conferences this way. Your Youtube shows. Go for it. Do it in Europe when you're traveling.

Yes, this is a great idea, and again you don't have to be eloquent or even leave a lengthy message, just name what you're calling about and what you want your rep or senator to do. If a bill would have a specific personal impact on you, like taking away your healthcare, say that too.
For people who have phone anxiety, call after 5PM and leave a voicemail!
I make a bullet point list of points to leave the the voicemail, including my zip code, why I’m calling, and an action I want them to take.
