Folks in Blue States who think abortion rights is only an issue for the rest of us are going to realize real quick that abortion rights is a 50-state issue as long as Republicans control the courts.

Fetterman, Recovering After Stroke, Labors to Adjust to Life in the Senate https://nyti.ms/3YkWmmp

"At Senator John Fetterman’s desk in the Senate chamber, there is a newly installed monitor that rises or lowers, depending on whether he sits or stands, and provides closed captioning so he can follow the proceedings. At the center dais, a custom desk stand has been built to accommodate the same technology for when he takes his shifts presiding over the Senate."

This day in history. 1846. Mormon leader Brigham Young led his followers into the west where a man was free to believe any bogus nutbaggery he so chose.

I think bigots and racists are angry all the time because being a bigot or a racist is just a miserable experience.

Well hello there, little Boreal Owl. #SuperbOwl #SuperbOwls #Owls

Holy crap. The New York Times published an unabashed, non-both-sidesing article arguing for trans rights, and equating them to Black rights, by a Black author?

Did like... the editor in chief have a stroke, and they slipped this by when nobody was looking?

Friday night nirvana coming right up, nice tea time power nap first, then I'll have a nice relaxing potter on with some things. We live in new times now, with a lot more pressure, so if you can get to that relaxation nirvana point, you've done well.

-stay blessed folks and have a jolly nice weekend . .

It was a masterclass in how to outmaneuver and then box in your opponents. And we are all here for it. Well done, Joe Biden. Well done. https://statuskuo.substack.com/p/never-underestimate-joe-biden-again?sd=pf

Going to add these to my zine, Calligraphic Space 5.

WHY?

"the researchers suggest that the I.R.S. has focused on audits that are easier to conduct and as a result, finds itself disproportionately auditing a historically disadvantaged group rather than other taxpayers, including high net-worth individuals."

RT @nytimes
Breaking News: Black taxpayers are at least three times as likely to be audited by the IRS, a study found. The agency’s algorithms could be a factor. https://nyti.ms/3Rjwm8a

Almost every person I know who has been like "welp everyone is going to get covid eventually" has gotten covid. Not [all] of the people I know who are going hard have avoided getting covid. But enough folks have avoided getting it this whole time, including myself, that I know that masking and social distancing works. One of the only times I made an exception, in December 2021 I hung out with 3 friends. All of them got covid. Scared me straight and I've been more or less locked down since.
