Really disappointed in @steveinskeep.bsky.social over his interview with Senators Curtis and Kelly on their new Section 230 bill this morning.
Steve, how did you not manage to ask a single question about the free expression and human rights concerns? ACLU and hundreds of orgs oppose this approach

Great to hear Boston City Councilors explicitly condemning dangerous censorship legislation like #KOSA and the SCREEN ACT.
The Massachusetts Congressional delegation, especially @warren.senate.gov who cosponsored KOSA, and @markey.senate.gov who voted to advance it, need to start listening.

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

my entire adult life, democrats have needed to be dragged kicking and screaming towards even the consideration that they should do right by the people who voted for them. i’m tired.
it is pretty darkly funny seeing posts like URGENT!!!! it is SUNDAY EVENING you must PUT DOWN YOUR DINNER and call your senator IMMEDIATELY to politely request they not press the big button marked "fuck you". this will not actually stop them from pressing the fuck you button. functioning democracy

A young woman on TikTok recently posted a video speaking about how she will die without the insulin she will no longer be able to afford. How she won’t be able to stockpile it forever. How heavy it was to consider that as a young person full of dreams and potential. My heart breaks for her.
