If JK Rowling cares soooo much about average, poor people, she should offer a refund to anyone who wouldnt have bought her merchandise if we'd known of her hateful views.
She should offer at least $500 to anyone that requests it.

The left wins things by building its own structures that make people's lives better. It's such a dire failure that we all think The Way Politics Works is for us to argue endlessly with the right as if their ideas hold any merit whatsoever and then lose because people have been made greedy and stupid

For a lot of, slightly, introverted people, quirky fashion isn't about trying to be the main character.
It's more trying to feel like a secondary character, or tertiary, or, just worthy of being included in the story at all. Even if its only a note about our weird purses😅🕺

This is terrifying and enraging and so much further than other payment processors have gone. Time to stop using Stripe if at all possible
More and more people reporting today that Stripe - the payment processor that Itch said were putting the most pressure on them - now have staff actively confirming that yes, they are censoring LGBT content, adult or otherwise. That this is official company policy.
This seems kinda significant.

For ICE, US activists need to look back to the Panthers. Form a response team. Have a team lead that is an attorney or with a law degree to talk with ICE on the scene. The rest of the team should wear masks like ICE, be armed to the teeth and stand behind the speaker. Make illegal arrests have risk.

Because you know what they're going to choose.
And it makes you feel like, as a species, we may be irredeemable. So many of us find just doing the basic decent thing an utter impossibility.
