@marcelias Good. These election denying nutjobs need to be forced to pay for their garbage lawsuits - without consequences, there's zero incentive for them to stop doing it

The final part of my #trans #comingout narrative, Opening the Black Box, is now up. For all the terror, uncertainty, worry--all of it--this day was the day that built the foundation of the woman I would become, and I will never be able to tell my wife how grateful I am for her love.

I promise that I didn't plan out a happy ending for the day after Christmas. It just... sort of worked out unexpectedly. Which, I suppose, is exactly how this particular story ought to end.

The independence a big podcast would give me would free me from facebook’s fascist algorithm which suppresses liberal ideas. Thank you in advance.

Nobody freezes.
Nobody starves.
Nobody goes it alone.

I’m now varying my diet. Instead of mince pies for breakfast, I had some all butter Scottish shortbread with my first coffee of the day.

So much talk about Elon Musk’s wealth drop off in the last 12 months due to a downturn in market pressures as well as other economic, labour and manufacturing problems.
But here is Tesla, Ford and GM’s stock price.
Note that stock prices moving roughly in tandem until mid-October when Musk's impending takeover of #twitter is finalised and then ... a huge drop off.

Now engaged in the family Christmas tradition of ironing the wrapping paper for reuse next year.

“Serf” Greenwald made half a million a year at the Intercept.

Somebody needs to remind these people that you can't win an election just by saying you won it. You have to actually get more votes than the other candidates.

And if you think you've been wronged, you have to be able to prove it.

All over the country, there are emergency responders and workers actually, actively taking care of life.

To all the emergency responders, snow plow drivers, utility workers, medical professionals, service workers, and those like the people who showed up here to take care of freezing, mistreated migrants- to all people that had to brave the elements to the benefit of others, thank you. The public owes you debt of gratitude.

On the other hand, scorn should be heaped upon Greg Abbott. Oldest trick in the authoritarian playbook: scapegoat and demonize a racial group. Give your angry supporters--for whom you feel nothing but contempt anyway, by the way--someone to feel superior to. Frees you from the need to actually do anything for them, doesn't it?

It's ugly and wrong.

Kari Lake’s attorneys were just hit with a SANCTIONS filing after losing their frivolous election lawsuit.

The “finding out” stage for Kari Lake continues.

Fission is in the news, but few recognize that a woman physicist was behind the discovery.

Lise Meitner’s brilliance led to the discovery of nuclear fission. But her long time collaborator Otto Hahn, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry w/o her in 1944, even though she had given the first theoretical explanation.

Albert Einstein called Meitner “our Marie Curie." She also adamantly refused to work on the atomic bomb during WWII. https://www.aps.org/publications/apsnews/201502/physicshistory.cfm #women #history #science #energy
