🚨House Republicans just passed a bill that would disenfranchise 70 million married American women.
Under the SAVE Act, women who took their spouse’s last name and don't have an updated passport or birth certificate would be turned away at the polls.

The thing that’s most striking about this is that they set up an e-mail account specifically for people to report on each other for any attempt to implement “DEIA or similar ideologies” and threatened “adverse consequences” for NOT reporting.
Here's an e-mail that just went out to NASA agency wide. 🔭

Today, I signed an executive order prohibiting greedy land developers from ripping off LA wildfire victims with unsolicited, undervalued offers to buy their destroyed property.
Make no mistake — this is a prosecutable crime.

Alrighty. I set up this account after an early Twitter exodus, but then let it fester. Now done with X.
So... Science? Space? Time travel? Overambitious cooking projects? Little old dogs with strong opinions? Middle grade speculative fiction? Bring it on!
