Is there a way to get people who believe in human rights for everyone to all collectively start using they/them? This is what comes to my mind when reading the news. What would happen if 75,017,626 people all decided to refute the old gender dichotomy at the same time?

NEW! from me for @theflytrapmedia.bsky.social: I wrote about the degradation of reality, the internet slop grift, and the terrifying ways so-called "AI" has been marketed as a technology that is somehow beyond human ken or responsibility.

Fun fact: if you're buying from a creator on etsy, you can reduce their etsy selling fees from 6.5% to 2.5% by ordering via 'shopname.etsy.com' instead of 'etsy.com/shopname' or searching from the main site. It costs you the same but the creator makes more

Funds to encourage electric-vehicle sales, manufacturing are enshrined in legislation - a president can't unilaterally repeal. Trump also cannot revoke rules that the Treasury Department, other government agencies established to determine how the money would be handed out with a stroke of the pen.

This has always been the GOP's strategy: 1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves. 2) Explode the deficit. 3) Demand cuts to Social Security and Medicare. 4) Repeat. Don't let them get away with it.

Reminder that the estimated cost of extending the Trump tax cuts is at least $5 trillion — more than twice the amount DOGE originally stated it would cut in “wasteful” government spending.

Donald Trump was found guilty of 34 charges but won't face any punishment — and will be back in the White House this month. Nearly 800 prisoners are now helping to battle Los Angeles fires, making as little as $5.80 per day. A tale of two justice systems.

Hot tip for the next two years: a Republican bill does the opposite of what it’s called. A GOP bill defunding schools that mandate vaccines would be called the “Protect our Schools Act.” A GOP bill raising the retirement age for social security would be called the “Retire With Dignity Act.”

That Donald J. Trump — the same person who instigated a coup four years ago today — will become president on January 20 is an assault on the rule of law and the foundations of our democracy. January 6, 2021, should live in infamy, as should Trump.

Ann Telnaes resigned after the Washington Post editorial page killed her cartoon. It’s worth a share. Big Tech executives are bending the knee to Donald Trump and it’s no surprise why: Billionaires like Jeff Bezos like paying a lower tax rate than a public school teacher.
