while KOSA passed the subcommittee, there is still the full committee meeting it needs to go through before being voted on by the Senate/House

support is more split on it than you'd think, we just need to pull away enough votes to block it. CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES!

A few post-notes:
- Don't panic. Don't doom. Breath and focus. Panic will do us little good in action. If you can't stop spiraling, step back and rest.
- They will try to push this before chistmas. They MIGHT pass a majority to the full committee. Don't dwell on it. Fight it.

ATTENTION! The House of Energy and Commerce has pushed a package of(now 18) "child safety" bills to a subcommittee markup.

This means the bills will be likely voted on to go to a FULL committee markup, which sends it out to the House.

Call the Committee. Tell them to vote NO

urgency is good. the stakes ARE high and we need to capitalize on every stop gap where our voices have the most impact to potentially stop these bills

but be careful about OVER-hyping these points as well and scaring people. tomorrow is not the end, we have to keep the energy up.

I've seen a handful of posts going around saying tomorrow's E&C committee Markup on bills like KOSA etc are going to "vote on and pass" the bills

there will be no vote to "pass" KOSA. they are going to debate the bill, make amendments, and vote if they want to push it to the full House Committee

Reviews.

Reviews are free AND they are a gift to authors that can keep on giving (i.e., exposure, marketing, algo boosts, etc.)

Please, give the gift of reviews to your authors this holiday season. It really can make a difference!

I played Horses this weekend and I wrote down some messy thoughts not only on the game but especially on the specter of formalism that emerged to haunt us all for a moment.

An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

tumblr is an interesting ecosystem on this thanks to the tagging system. you can and will get dumbass replies in the reblogs, obviously. however, thanks to the tagging system, people will often instead talk out loud to themselves in the tags, instead of to *you*, making for a different dynamic.
