"This was Kabul in February 2020. Girls were bravely taking off their headscarves in public. A new Afghanistan was emerging.
Today, women are not seen as โhuman beingsโ by the Taliban โ banned from studying, working, leaving the house without a man & forced to cover their faces."

I agree. #desantis is a dangerous fascist. Let's not forget how many in 2015 thought that Donald Trump running for president was a laughing matter. He was elected, he did enormous damage and he nearly overthrew our #democracy. But he delivered for his donors: a budget-busting tax cut for billionaires and a #christofascist #scotus for religious fanatics. #desantis promises more of the same. He is a threat to be taken seriously.
@Annaeus @Sunspot @TonyStark It was easy to dismiss Trump as just a clown, a carnival barker. DeSantis poses a more immediate and dire threat, especially in light of Trump and the exposure of 40% of the country being fashy-adjacent/tolerant/curious.
โGeorge Santos must be expelled from Congress because even though the institution has been desecrated, abased, debased, defecated and urinated upon, as well as betrayed by so many of its members, it must maintain some barely burning ember of standards and this is it. This must be it. There is no choice.โ
So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing.
