okay. i have made a gofundme for this situation that i'm in as i feel i can get more help this way and is a more consistent way to be transparent as my memory issues make it a struggle to remember to update posts. please feel free to keep circulating the original post as well as i hope to use it to cover my upcoming phone payment (the big $450-odd mentioned). general explanation is "disabled woman took out credit to pay bills after losing job 2 years ago and only just got back to work 2 months ago and can't afford to live let alone repay this" but the post + gofundme explains it better. please god just help me if you can i'm working as much as i can With as much as i can and i just. i cam't come up with the money no matter how hard i try

the KIDS act passed the house today. 267-117, 47 not voting.

that's not great. but it's not the whole story.

a few things got worse right before the vote too. the language that explicitly protected encryption, saying the bill couldn't be used to force platforms to weaken it, got quietly stripped out on Friday. that safeguard just doesn't exist anymore.

but this isn't over. it heads to the senate next, and the senate is genuinely not on board. blumenthal and cantwell, two of the senators who wrote the original KOSA, are saying they don't want this version near a markup. blackburn, a republican and the other original author, called the missing duty of care provision a red line.

worth being clear here, blackburn isn't on our side. she wants the policy stronger, not gone. but that's still a crack we can use. her opposition means the house version has zero guaranteed path through the senate as written, and a stalled bill is a bill that isn't law yet. use her objection, don't trust her motive.

senate commerce hasn't even scheduled a markup yet. that's the next pressure point. this thing has died or gotten majorly rewritten at this stage before.

contact your senators: find yours here. tell them you don't want the house version anywhere near a vote.

and remember, if you have to, contact your senators scared. anything helps.

this fight isn't lost. it's just moved.

Cold brewed some jasmine tea and it is so goooood. Fruity and floral and sweet and aromatic. It makes the water feel extra cold somehow
