Get single use medical scissors. They are more affordable than arts and craft scissors. They are all metal and very well made, and they are not single use outside medical settings.

Fanone: “The future of our democracy is at stake -the American voter, will be the last line of defense when it comes to preserving democracy."

Being transgender is the least exciting thing about me.

I have no particularly interest in discussing it.

But as long as there are people whose entire existence is built around erasing mine, I'll scream about it from the Goddamn rooftops and nobody can shut me up.

A proposed amendment to enshrine access to #abortion in #Florida's constitution moved one step closer to appearing on the November 2024 ballot after a coalition of reproductive rights advocates surpassed the required number of validated signatures.

“The cardinal error of the Germans who opposed Nazism was their failure to unite against it. At the crest of their popular strength, in July 1932, the National Socialists had attained but 37 per cent of the vote. But the 63 per cent of the German people who expressed their opposition to Hitler were much too divided and shortsighted to combine against a common danger which they must have known would overwhelm them unless they united, however temporarily, to stamp it out.”

Big telecom is working with Google on one of the creepiest-yet facial-recognition programs -- paying parents to film their kids and upload it to massive, unaccountable databases -- and the kids have zero say in the matter.

Disgusting is too mild a word for this.

This is a screenshot from one of the videos provided by the FBI of the January 6th 2021 DC pipe bomber. One (of many) indications that this person is female is the outline/clothing furrowing of her bra.

Anybody else still curious who planted the pipe bombs, disabled Mike Pence’s key card, removed the panic button in Ayanna Presley’s office, and shared the locations of non-reinforced Capitol windows?

First public COVID memorial I’ve seen IRL

There is a 30% rebate on insulation, up to a maximum of $1200, if you are the owner of a house. It's well worth it, as there is a significant energy saves for both cooling and heating (worth it for helping to slow our overall societal energy usage and fossil fuels consumption anyway, btw) #energy #rebates #federal #EnergyEfficiency

"The Democrats on the House Oversight Committee today released a 156-page report showing that when he was in the presidency, Trump received at least $7.8 million from 20 different governments, including those of China, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, and Malaysia, through businesses he owned.

The Democrats brought receipts."

I think this is the 7th octopus hat that I've made (using this really excellent pattern https://www.thetwistedhatter.com/product-page/twisted-kraken-pattern). Friends and family keep asking for them, and it's really fun to make.

I pretty much always have some #knitting or #crochet project going, it keeps me focused through both in-person and Zoom meetings and no matter how stupid the meeting, always makes me feel like I'm not totally wasting my time because I'm making something!
