@zigdon have never once regretted switching to fastmail. i have a referral code i can share that gives some % off

And again, I'm going to shout this: THE CURRENT SITUATION IN AMERICAN CITIES DOES NOT AT ALL WARRANT ILLEGALLY MOBILIZING THE NATIONAL GUARD AND DEPUTIZING FBI AGENTS TO OCCUPY ANY CITY WHATSOEVER.

You have to keep telling people that the discourse is based on BS and worse and not reality. Being afraid of someone experiencing homelessness isn't the basis for sound policing policy.
