Education spending is defense spending. It prevents outbreaks of fascism, treason and disease.

Reminder that this is a man who worked on 128 episodes of a very popular TV series, and he's got to sell off all of his shit just to afford cancer treatment.

SO, HOW IS THE AVERAGE PERSON SUPPOSED TO?

The DOJ is suing to stop California’s redistricting map. Apparently vote approved maps are a problem, but partisan gerrymanders done without public input are just democracy working as intended?

Google has now admitted that they will tap into users' personal data within Gmail and Drive in order for their upcoming AI search to "be more helpful".

For years, Google has advertised their services as "encrypted" and "secure", which begs the question: are they really?

I simply refuse to accept that police ever have to look like this. this is just pure cosplay. it should be illegal for cops to be dressed like soldiers going to war.

A friend was buying into a gated community. The covenants included some form of "cannot be used for business"

He wrote at home They said, "that's not what it means".

His lawyer was "that's what it says".

If the contract has a clause, and that clause might hurt you... it goes, or you do.
A follow-up: we were unable to reach a version of the contract that I could safely sign. Their final offer kept the moral turpitude and non-disparagement clauses, with a "Trust us, we don't want to hurt Seanan" promise in an email. Not enough.
When you are a new creator, whether in prose, comics, or other media, it can be very tempting to agree to every convention or other event that you're asked to do. Exposure is great, right? And it's wonderful to be wanted.

What would really unlock the Epstein scandal is finding out why Acosta cut that insane plea deal.

Epstein plead to soliciting a minor. Which is bad. But not nearly as bad as what he was doing. And so the world acted accordingly. Some times in ignorance, some times with greed and cynicism.
