second chance for Net Neutrality, US politics
"Important PSA for people living in the US: The FCC has been forced to reopen public comment on the Net Neutrality decision following a court case by #Mozilla. The influx of bots (suspiciously using the names of telecom subscribers) that were anti-Net Neutrality has caused this. The FCC is trying to bury this, and very few are reporting on it.
To (re)file your thoughts on the #FCC 's decision, go to https://www.fcc.gov/ecfs/filings/express. Proceeding 17-108 is #NetNeutrality . This ends in March."

BDB now has @TheGneech@twitter.com's @FurPlanet@twitter.com anthology "Reclamation Project – Year One" available, and it's even on offer! :D It has my story Sewer Tea in it, in which a maned wolf repair engineer and spelunking guide takes a corvid into a sewer half way up a mountain to explore a little bit, where both nearly die in the process. Sound fun? Grab a copy right here: https://baddogbooks.com/product/reclamation-project-year-one/ has you covered :D #furry #writing #ebook
Lord of the Flies is bad. It's well written but I've always felt it kinda fed into that narrative that 'Man's base state is being a terrible person', which is often used as an excuse by terrible people to make themselves feel less responsible about being terrible.

A 16-yr-old boy died in Border Patrol custody. He had the flu
They didn't take him to the hospital
They didn't release him
They didn't even seem to check on him as he was dying on the floor of his cell, contrary to the govt's account
We have the video

Intersex Inclusion Survey; transphobia
The 2019 Intersex Inclusion Survey seeks more people to fill it out, even people who are neither #intersex nor LGBTQ, since part of its purpose is to inquire what people tend to think or believe about intersex people. As tends to happen with surveys like this, a bunch of terfs ended up sending offensive responses to it. It would be helpful to add other voices than theirs. The survey will be open until the end of 2019.
