What in the Puritan Hell is this shit.
I think my podcast's merch store is being blocked because it has the name "Daddy" in it. All of our products were blocked months ago and I thought it was because we changed URLs, but I re-linked it yesterday and all of our products were instantly rejected again.

These clowns are just making up duties and rules and laws. Artists don't have any duty to sing for fascists, and only a fascist would try to force them to.
"Any artist cancelling their show at the Trump Kennedy Center over political differences isn't courageous or principled—they are selfish, intolerant, and have failed to meet the basic duty of a public artist: to perform for all people"- Kennedy Center spokesperson Roma Daravi
Kennedy Center vows to sue musician who canceled performance over Trump name change
The Kennedy Center is planning legal action after jazz musician Chuck Redd canceled an annual holiday concert. Redd pulled out after President Trump's name appeared on the building.

The billionaires are mad, and let them be. That's a good sign.
The wealth tax in Massachusetts over-delivered, cuz these guys are all talk and won't leave. They'll pay their tiny extra tax and we'll all benefit.

If you own a computer it should be illegal for a company to not let you easily install your own software. This includes crap like tvs and refrigerators. Let me put Debian on my dishwasher.
