Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes. You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment. My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc. www.reddit.com/r/Passports/...

we have 18" of snow in the forecast. today it was 60° and so windy it knocked out power for thousands of people. meanwhile my family's texting me pictures of the rivers rising again in kentucky. and these fuckers are like "hold on we're busy falsifying these historical plaques and bullying kids"
