OKAY if you are TRANS and in AMERICA and you want some JEWELRY you're gonna want to hit this page at NOON today, mountain daylight time. it's 8:15 as i post this. nora.jewelry/pages/we-wan...

A must-read. Demands to meet arbitrary numerical quotas. Federal agents pulled off investigations of more serious crimes. Arbitrary and often lawless exercises of power at every turn.

The No Kings protest map will help you find a place to exercise your First Amendment rights this weekend. (It's also a pretty good argument against the Electoral College.) www.nokings.org
