Primary these assholes. This is abhorrent, but it will absolutely keep happening if there are no consequences when they vote for shit like this. Kick them out.
Here are the 28 Dem Senators who voted to advance the first federal ban on trans athletes & a federal definition of sex that would make trans & intersex people non-existent: Angela Alsobrooks (MD), Tammy Baldwin (WI), Richard Blumenthal (CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), Chris Coons (DE), ->
By a vote of 76-23, S 1071 passes the motion to proceed to the motion to concur. Won't know who voted for this until the roll call is uploaded, but safe to say it passed with the support of at least 24 members of the Democratic caucus. (Rand Paul probably voted nay and Steve Daines has been absent).

I got offered a LOT of money to host an official HP podcast and turned it down immediately. I’m assuming since I am not a podcaster that they have an extremely long list of people who have also said no to this. Dunno what‘s going on with the actors but the comics are holding the line lol
Once again thinking about every actor trying to justify taking the money for the new HP series.

It truly is not possible to be a billionaire and a good person. They are mutually exclusive. You can try to name your favourite billionaire exception, but there are no exceptions. That level of wealth requires a willingness to exploit the vulnerable that is not a feature of good humans.
Bezos and the Walmart family have 800 billion dollars between them and don't pay taxes to speak of, but sure, the perceived shortages are the dudes trimming your lawns.

Food insecurity is ALWAYS a political choice. Famine is ALWAYS manmade. People go hungry because of other people’s decisions. We have more than enough food for everyone, and enormous amounts of it are wasted—literally thrown in the garbage—on purpose.
