I mean, I'm just going to keep detaching this from people who quote post with direct links to the regs dot gov page to bypass the guide — my whole thing is "here's how you submit a comment that /matters/" — if you want people to spam the register with nonsense, that's fine but do it on your own.
Public comment on Dr Oz's proposed rules to ban gender-affirming care for youth closes 2/17

One rule bans hospital-based care, the other eliminates Medicaid/CHIP coverage

Together they'd make care virtually unavailable nationwide, including in shield law states

when i tell people i'm making a game for a game jam and they're like "oh so it's a competition?" i get confused... cuz yeah i guess you can submit to get judged and voted on? but you rarely win prize money so i just think it's a good excuse to kick your own ass into making and finishing projects...

I remember the first days of Steam, and how it was required to play even copies of Half-Life 2 you purchased with a box (this was scandalous at the time) and it's wild how Steam is completely unquestioned these days but most folks. But damn, it was HATED when it first launched.

This is why I have a rule that if someone mentions books on social media, I have to go read for st least 15 minutes.
I wonder if people are paying attention to how much their doom scrolling is cutting into time they used to use to read books

A must-watch. It’s the 🇺🇸 fight in a single sound bite. Heartbreakingly beautiful.

Deepest thanks, sir, for standing up for what’s right and for making me particularly proud to be a New Jerseyan. 🫶🏻✊🏻💙

What do you mean “missing” when everybody knew it was in Lake Michigan?

It’s a lake, not the Pacific Ocean.
