Texas bill could punish bookstores for 'obscene' books A new bill in the Texas Legislature, authored by Rep. Nate Schatzline, would allow businesses to be held liable if a minor reports damages from "obscene" books.

It was never just about schools, it was never just about libraries, and it isn't actually about the books.

It's about finding a way to banish entire people, entire ideas, out of society, back into the closet or worse.

Southwest Airlines ends free checked bags policy for first time in its 54-year history Southwest Airlines is ending its free checked bags policy for many passengers. Some experts think customer loyalty could suffer.

As with all companies existing in a hyper neoliberal capitalistic-obsessed economy, it does not surprise me that southwest is following suite with the greedy practices of American Airlines, United, etc. #greed #capitalism #neoliberalism #southwest #US

Trump is awful. Audacious and energetic, he is a charlatan, a demagogue, a megalomaniac, an ignoramus, an abuser, an entrepreneur who profits from bigotry.

Haha, I feel you! I just wondering if people will begin to come together and mobilize against these flagrant attacks on the constitution...

When you have these conversations with more conservative friends, how do they react? Like I always get the, “I don’t want talk about this…” each and every time.. it’s denial to the highest

Aside from shouting “this is illegal?” Where online are people coming together to protest physically and fight back against these continuous atrocities? Congress is too slow and completely rigged so it’s up to citizens to actively and forcefully, if necessary, fight back

Musk’s website, DOGE, leaked classified government information to the entire world. NOFURN [Not Releasable to Foreign Nationals] information on their website about the [intelligence community] headcount has prompted a scramble as people check whether their information has been accessed.

I will not give into the lies. I will not give into the fear. Though I may be a sea apart from the land's that raised me, I will continue to fight as best I can against the rising tyranny in the US.

this was quite disturbing I have to say. I checked my own but found that I hadn’t been auto followed. Why did you get the honor?

That honest working citizens simply trying to care for our forests must hide is deplorable. Nobody should have to bend the knee in a “democracy “
