This world carries darkness in abundance, shadows that stretch long and cold. Joy is the medicine that mends what breaks, the balm that soothes what aches, the light that refuses to be extinguished. Seek joy in each dawn that breaks—let it be your daily practice, your ritual.

In reversal, Coast Guard again classifies swastikas, nooses as hate symbols
The new order came hours after The Post reported the service would instead classify such symbols as “potentially divisive” under guidelines set for release next month.

Yes. If you ever think banks should be allowed to cut off financial services for "morality" reasons, just note that neither Epstein's pedophilia, nor Miller's Nazism, nor RFK Jr's eugenics, nor Musk's destruction of USAID caused banks any "moral" concerns whatsoever.
We cannot allow financial institutions which regularly cross the line from amoral to explicitly immoral to hold a dehumanizing line against people who do sex work.
I don't believe for a moment that this debanking effort is because of Ana's sex work rather than her reporting, but also even if that was the reason it shouldn't be allowed.
None of the content Ana has ever made is illegal. There is no justification to cut her off from the banking system.
