HOUSTON: “An investigation is underway after two men wearing ski masks and claiming to be police were shot and killed at a home in southeast Houston Friday night…”

I don’t know how much clearer it can be - if a politician is silent about trans rights because of fear of the GOP then they will be silent about *your* rights because of fear of the GOP. You are not inherently better than a trans person by virtue of being cis.

Gosh, I wonder who picks fresh vegetables.
ICYMI, the eye-popper in today's PPI: a 39% rise in wholesale fresh vegetable prices.
It's the largest month-on-month increase ever recorded in the summer (data to 1947), and one of the ten largest ever, regardless of season.

“Anyone who believed that government censorship of internet speech would stop with adult content was profoundly naïve. Had the mainstream tech industry taken the threat against us seriously rather than argue that our speech was less worthy of protection, we might not be in this situation.”
Age verification laws are sweeping the US, changing the future of online speech
Age verification laws have been passed in at least 24 states. Some say it’s an effort to protect kids, while others say it restricts protected speech.
