Or maybe: "I pressed this skinner box lever and all I got was an apathetic government who will do nothing to change things."

At some point your brain just numbs you to the state of the world. 😞

@Blithe Ah, that does make more sense. Except it’s still a 7 hour drive. Not sure why it thought I wanted to go there. 😆

A Texas woman was put on an emergency flight to Colorado *in the middle of a miscarriage* to save her life, and NPR just gets quotes from both sides of the ‘saving women in mortal peril’ debate & calls it a day. Things might get awkward if you ask John Seago follow-up questions!

The average American now has to compete with major companies, including the largest private equity firm in the world, when they're in the market for a home.

In @FSCDems, we exposed the role corporations are playing in inflation, specifically in housing prices & rent increases.

Suppressing information that you just don't agree with or that makes you uncomfortable feels like cultish indoctrination.

@NfNitLoop ("Cody C. #BLM") wrote:

I think we keep letting the right frame their culture war BS too much.

Saying that you can't acknowledge LGBTQ+ existence is not "remaining neutral". Avoiding discussions of our racist history/present is not neutral.

Suppressing info is the biggest Big Brother you can be.

I can't believe we have to go on the defensive with "talking to kids about queerness ISN'T grooming," rather than nailing these ghouls for suggesting it is.

The thing they don't want you to know is that you could pick entry-level tech workers by firing a nerf gun into a room filled with empathetic, curious people with a penchant for abstraction and you'd fare better than any number of hacker-ranking coding tests.

I hired someone for an entry-level tech job who didn't have a tech degree or any other tech experience.

But she's smart and kind and thoughtful. She interviewed better than the techies, so I took a chance and hired her.

Anyway, she's doing great! Maybe you should try it 😊

This a central goal of the American right, to legitimate the use of terror and violence by its adherents with the blessing and cooperation of the state.

The anti-trans and anti-gay laws you see in U.S. states sound eerily like the anti-"gay propaganda" laws passed in Russia in 2013:

a running problem with Parenting Discourse is that a lot of parents do not understand something that to me is self-evident:

for a non-trivial number of kids and teens, their parents are part of the threat model, an antagonizing force to be evaded

If my daughter was not killed in a Fl school & had the chance to grow up & told me she was gay, I would consider myself fortunate. I'd thank her for her honesty. However, my daughter is in a cemetery. Rather than deal with gun violence, the Fl legislators are terrorizing kids.

Idaho's house just passed HB 675.

It passed by a vote of 55-13.

It would make providing gender affirming care to trans teens a felony with a life sentence..

Worse... it makes leaving the state with your trans teen to move elsewhere and provide them with care a felony as well.

If one of you sent it to me -- I mean... you get me.

But I'm not going to eat it unless one of you fesses up! Strange food showing up at your house is a little unsettling.
