the fact that legislators are trying to say that computers are devices that require id verification and tracking to use should put fear into EVERYONE. FIGHT AGAINST THIS.

I’m begging people to make their subtitles match the words in the video.

If you say “Oh My God” and you subtitle it as “Oh My Arceus” I get that you’re trying to be cheeky, or dodge censorship, or whatever.

But subtitles are an accessibility tool and making the subtitles not match is not helpful.

Health Insurance Claim Denied? See What Insurers Said Behind the Scenes Learn how to request your health insurance claim file, which can include details about what your insurer is saying about you and your case.

When an insurance company is deciding whether to pay for your medical treatment, it generates a file, which should contain all records associated with your case, including documents explaining why the claim was denied.

You have a right to see this file.

"Harry Potter is important to me, it was part of my childhood"
That's fine, I now associate you with a dirty TERF transphobe and you're fucking dead to me, you dud cunt.
Grow a backbone (and a personality).

Insta-blocking anyone who speaks positively about this show. Rowling is a bigot who is actively campaigning to make trans lives worse so if you watch this show I will assume you are a transphobe, end of.

With the HP trailer dropping tomorrow, here's the whole deal:

If you watch the show, hell even just the trailer, I will think less of you. I will dislike you. I will think you don't care about trans people.

That's it. It's been years. There's no wiggle room. No qualifiers. You care or you don't.

I love doing restores or thrifting for tvs. They can sometimes have good ones for way cheaper

do not ask yourself whether or art is good instead ask is it sincere was it cathartic was it fun to make is it made by me and don’t forget to stay silly

My favorite is impact.
I have chronic pain so having the pain actually helps on high pain days. I also use it as a form of harm reduction for sh ideation, that one is more controlled and talked about with my therapist often to help avoid destructive behavior.

Amy Klobuchar: “It (The Save Act) creates complicated & costly bureaucratic hurdles for Americans to either register to vote or to re-register — If they're like those 69 million women who happened to decide to change their name when they got married.

1/2 of all Americans don't have a passport”

Why Do Some People Still Wear Masks In 2026 And On A Completely Unrelated Note Why Is Everyone In The Office Sick Right Now Apart From The Guy In The Mask?

Morning.

I know calling reps is very nerve racking. You're not sure what's the right thing to say, and tbh having a script thrown at me makes things just as nerve racking.

I called today, and I figured I'd write up a transcript of how my call went down. Hopefully it helps demystify the process

If you're a bit confused on how to submit, follow this link
www.federalreserve.gov/apps/proposa...
And click "Submit Comment" on the right.

Unfortunately I forgot to save my own comment as an example. Just be courteous and explain how Reputation Risk policies harm you and/or other people around you

reminder: for covid, you won't show pos for 36-48hrs after exposure.

if your flight's friday morning, testing = inaccurate anytime before saturday night (unless you're feeling sick sooner)

also why it's responsible to stay at home for a few days after events so tests+no symptoms can be verified.

If KOSA passes it will fundamentally change how we are able to interact and use the Internet.

KOSA must not pass.

You need to call your reps and demand that they OPPOSE:

-the KIDS Act
-KOSA
-the Screen Act
-Sammy's Law
-the App Store Accountability Act

And additionally, oppose:

-reforming/sunsetting Section 230
-online age verification/ID laws

Reality is, if we want change with the U.S. government, voting isn't going to pull it.

We as a citizenry are going to have to step up and do the necessary dirty work. And longtime friends know precisely what I mean.

This is exactly right.

Age verification / online ID check legislation literally forces companies to collect MORE data on children (and everyone else) not less.

We desperately need privacy, antitrust, and algorithmic justice legislation.

Not censorship bills like KOSA and expanded surveillance.

DO NOT COMPLY.

DO NOT OUT PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY VULNERABLE CHILDREN

An upcoming California law requires operating system providers to enforce basic mandatory age verification It's basic, and by the looks of it, near unenforceable.

A new California law says all operating systems, including Linux, need to have some form of ID verification (which they’re calling age verification) at account setup.

This makes absolutely ZERO sense if you have even the most basic understanding of technology

Seemed like the most appropriate way to use this, honestly.
