I mean this: if your DAs and AGs aren’t talking about prosecuting this, get some who will if you possibly can. Either by shaming or voting.

Where do you get real hairpins? Is there some online specialty shop?

All of this, literally over one LGBTQ+ children's picture book. ONE. PICTURE. BOOK.

They dismantled the fucking public library for the whole county. They hate gay people this much.

If you have a library that functions, get in their inboxes or meetings now to tell them that they're great.

I was able to get an RSV vaccine 2 years ago and it is LIFE CHANGING. I’ve only been seriously ill once since then, like I cannot stress enough how much of the winter miserableness is RSV, and kids are catching it ALL THE TIME. Not only should babies have access, EVERYONE should have access!!!!

But the real crime was that he was the first opening act, and G. Love and Special Sauce was the second. No offense to any G.Love superfans, but it made for an oddly uneven concert experience.

It was 1994, when he was just starting to make his comeback/transition to his multi-genre style, and I wasn’t expecting it. A friend bought the tickets, and I hadn’t even looked at the opening acts until he was on stage, then I dug the ticket out of my pocket and stared at it in shock.

The fact that you can't raise taxes on billionaires even slightly without them pouring money into fascist political movements is, of itself, evidence that billionaires as a class shouldn't be allowed to
exist in the first place.

I don’t want to vote for a Democrat who promises to get Trump’s voters to vote for them. I want a Democrat who wants to put Trump in prison

No they won’t, because it would spell absolute disaster for Amazon.

They have offloaded massive amounts of the most expensive (and difficult) part of the job to the USPS.

Well, then Jeffries should not expect Democrats to pursue his or any other sitting Democrat’s re-election. Primary them ALL.

If you won’t impeach over murder, youβ€˜re endorsing it. Aid and abet.

WTF is wrong with you, Jeffries? This is not keep the powder dry time, this is USE THE POWDER time.

Another enthusiastic vote for the Paprika recipe app! I’ve used it for more than a decade and love it! It’s also super easy to add recipes from online sources! Go for the sale!

I actually looked at some demographics maps, and chose a neighborhood near majority nonwhite neighborhoods, thinking mostly I didn’t want my kid growing up in a 100% white school. It wasn’t until after we bought that I saw a map of the school boundary linesβ€” they are absolutely wild.

Right? When we moved here, we had the option of being part of the white takeover of a gentrifying neighborhood, or living in a neighborhood that was historically white (and is still at least 90% white).

Damn, I’ll have think for the other four, but #1 concert was Johnny Cash opening for the Violent Femmes.

Buying a new book incentivises the production of more books just like it. I don't know how to put this more clearly.

Eh… if their kids are older than elementary school age, they re-enter the zone where this is a good idea. Plus, this whole list started out labeled as β€œgifts for artistically-inclined friends”.

Since this year of all years I think skipping the big stores and shopping small businesses is a great thing, I asked my discord community to give me links to their shops!

Please link to your own shops in the replies, and show us some pics of your favorite items!

I think we should be a LOT louder about the people who are the loudest anti-trans crusaders being the same people protecting a ring of ACTUAL child predators. Like, very super loud so your bananapants aunt starts to feel like you maybe think SHE’S a child predator if she doesn’t knock it tf off

Hey I just want to remind everyone that even if vaccines did cause autism (they don’t), they also cause ALIVE CHILDREN, and if you don’t think an alive autistic child is something to celebrate, please fuck off into the sun forever

For a while I was a math-CS double major. I was 2.5 years in when I decided that it wasn’t worth all the uncomfortable feelingsβ€” I didn’t have the word to describe the microaggressions and whatnot that were 20 times as bad in CS as in math. One major was fine. Still eventually became a software eng.
