At the risk of sounding stupid this kind of thing is why I post about writing porn when I write porn. When they slam the Internet shut on porn it's sex and sexuality they're trying to stifle; they're foreclosing on the possibility of adults being free people, and it behooves antifascists to say so.
The link between sexual repression and militarism is becoming clearer by the day.

Perversely, I'm seeing a lot of postings for copywriter positions via Linkedin, Indeed, etc. -- but they're almost all part-time and/or contract jobs writing copy for AI training purposes. They want people to sign up to train their own shitty replacements.
When the AI boom began, copywriters were singled out as one of the jobs most vulnerable to AI. Now, three years later, I wanted to hear from workers on the frontlines of the industry, to hear what had actually taken place on the ground.
For many, it was even worse than they'd feared.

wolves have been under attack since their reintroduction, primarily bc of the cattle industry.
of all cow predation events, wolves only account for 5%. thats around 2000 cows/year. out of millions.
wolves were native to these lands before we were, and now legislation to remove them again is back.

🚨URGENT: Congress prepares to push forward wolf slaughter bill that would remove federal protections for gray wolves across the lower 48 states and prohibit judicial review. Decision will be voted on Dec. 15 and could move to a House vote next week.

This is probably BS, but it misses the point anyway.
I get statements from DHS all the time about “serious offenders” being deported, and it’s like a middle-aged mom of four whose small town loves her but she messed up once and got a theft conviction when she was 19.

The reason folks are focusing on DHS's refusal to honor Real IDs is that it means that the Trump regime is asserting the right to detain anyone in America, resident or visitor, without probable cause. It's an erasure of habeas corpus for all Americans.

Add to this that HSI just filed a declaration in our case challenging these policies saying they can’t trust REAL IDs as proof of status.

1. For at least 10 years, Pepsi has conspired with Walmart to force up grocery prices. That’s the shocking evidence made public today in an unsealed FTC lawsuit. The suit was abandoned in May by the Trump FTC just before it was to be un-redacted. We went to court to get it unsealed & won.
