what kind of special freak are you if you write the entirety of said book just for yourself

Small, local news stations that serve rural areas will be seriously affected by CPB closures.

Some stations, like KCUW in Pendleton, Oregon, KUHB in St. Paul, Alaska, and WVLS in Monterey, Virginia, rely on CPB for 90% of their funding, according to Axios.https://trib.al/qWwG899

I'm deeply grateful to those who have shared their stories for The Human Toll project. These stories capture the deep sense of fear, loss, helplessness, disappointment, and anger that people are experiencing in the wake of recent changes in the US. But they also offer reason for hope.

If you treat the First Amendment like it only applies to you, the Second Amendment like it’s a personality, and the Fourteenth like it’s a typo, I don’t want to hear about how you’re a “constitutionalist.”

BREAKING: Scientists are staging a “science fair” in the lobby of a Congressional building to tell elected officials about the critical knowledge the US will lose because their research grants have been canceled.

putting in your fucking “hate speech” policy that a particular kind of hate speech against a particular group of people is explicitly allowed - and therefore encouraged - is the kind of shit that should be done from a volcano lair with a shark moat
