Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:

Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.

If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.

Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

It's not just "consumer smart" it reduces environmental waste, key materials are often mined in slave conditions. The whole tenor of the article is wrong - why is the economy so dependent on us engaging in mass waste?

I heard there was a Cohen song,

And all the Christians got it wrong,

But you don’t really get the meaning do ya?

‘Cause you see its about getting laid,

It’s sex, and love, and Jewish faith,

But all the gentiles heard was “hallelujah!”
hey guys i made a seasonal meme

My heart is full tonight, y'all. The cathedral was packed. The Capitol City Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence were there, along with folks from SPICE (Street Pride Intersectional Community Empowerment), and the Trans and Queer Youth Collective, and SGMC.

Local trans activist Bee Davis spoke about love and community being intentional, and how we have to protect each other because we are the ancestors, and future generations will ask what we did.

There is no explicit constitutional prohibition against felching so it is difficult for me to understand why Ryan Lisa is so upset with Olivia Nuzzi and RFK Jr.

Any kind of "woke" that leaves out autistic people is not, in fact, woke. A lot of the left also needs to check themselves, and their ableism. Woo-woo/wellness/antivax, it all must die.
I'm all for woke 2 as long as we agree woo-woo is out, I want aggressively pro-science and medicine thanks

Tonight @ Sacramento City Hall:
📍 SACRAMENTO, CA

Lavender Angels were out tonight distributing last-minute flyers in support of tomorrow’s vigil for Alvin Prasad, put together by his daughter Andrea Prasad.

Alvin was recently hospitalized in a coma after being viciously beaten in a brazen hate crime in Lavender Heights.

Alcohol is legal in every state
Doctors say it's possible to get hooked on pot. There's a widespread misconception that marijuana is not addictive, and it's expanded as a growing number of states legalize pot.

Turns out this was all much ado about nothing and Google isn’t using your Gmail to train AI and if wanna turn all that stuff back on you can get your spam filters back
Looks like the article has been updated to suggest maybe they misread the policy.

I see people complaining that this also disabled their spam filters, though I still see new messages showing up in spam so it's still working fine for me after disabling things.

The more Lizza writes the more he indicts himself in serious ethical lapses but there are a lot of editors and publishers who are complicit here, too.

The whole thing is just gross.

(And shout out to the serious journalists who do good work. You deserve better peers and a healthier industry.)
