turn the gender dial up to eleven tonight baby i want the cissies to look at me and wonder if /they're/ a boy or a girl

[arithetonberry]

So I got a home laser cutter last year and then I did a lot of trial and error to figure out how to make things and I just. Never posted about it on social media somehow.

Anyway, these are the earrings I made that I really like and plan to keep making! They're all very lightweight bc of the thin wood which means I can play with big chunky designs :))

And technically these are all on my store but I feel weird advertising my store on here bc I can't do overseas shipping rn

[arithetonberry]

Oh, I fixed the shipping issue!! Everything on my store has been updated

I understand if people outside of the US don't want to buy from US-based shops anymore but all I can do is put what I love into the world and hope it resonates with someone :)

Can't Have Nice Things

The Ketamine King Musk has shutdown the IRS's Free Tax Filing system.

Of all the things a government could off, a way to Freely calculate and file your taxes seems like a good one. But the richest man in the world thinks we shouldn't have that.

Musk Says He’s ‘Deleted’ Popular Free IRS Tax Filing Program

The online tax filing option on the IRS website had a strong bipartisan 76% approval rating from registered voters.

[truth-has-a-liberal-bias]

President Trump’s “special government employee,” Elon Musk, announced on Monday that he had dissolved the Internal Revenue Service’s free file program—suggesting that he effectively fired the staff who worked on the popular program.

The billionaire revealed that he “deleted” the group of individuals who oversaw the system that allows Americans to easily file their taxes for free on the IRS website. The IRS-run free and simplified tax filing option had 76% approval from registered voters based on a 2023 poll by Navigator. [...]

If you have the time to burn, and a bit of financial cushion -

File your taxes by hand. Fill out the forms with a pen. Overpay by about $50. (You will eventually get that back. It is likely to take several months.)

It will take longer to get any refund you're due. But I promise you the entire federal bureaucracy has been cutting as many corners as they can for as many years as they can, and the current set is going to cut even more corners, and...

they don't have the staff on hand to process a huge number of paper claims anymore. They expect everything that came in digitally last year, to continue to be filed digitally. And they expect more digital filings every year. They've planned for that. They've staffed for that.

One of the only acts of protest we have available is "comply, but slowly."

File on paper if you can.

If you have the software to file digitally because doing the math & forms is such a nightmare for you?

If you're up for it: Print the final form, and then fill out a new blank form by hand. With your lousy handwriting. Send it in the post, by mail.

Does that stop them? No, but every bit of sand we can throw in the gears slows them down and pulls resources away from the other horrific rights violations they're trying to codify into law.

You likely still do not have to pay an accountant even if the IRS's Direct File service goes down because Free File will still work.

While Direct File is an IRS-hosted program, there is also Free File, which is government-subsidized and hosted by third parties:

You need to use THESE SPECIFIC LINKS in order to access the Free File programs, fyi - they are hosted by tax preparers who also often order paid services which may have deceptive names like "TurboTax Free" that make them sound like they don't cost anything, so be sure to only use the IRS links. Don't just Google them, you will not find what you're looking for.

Here's an archive link in case they take down the Free File page. (You may have to manually cut out the web.archive.org part of the URL to use the links.)

It is not possible for Elon Musk to access these programs directly because they are not hosted on government servers. You are eligible for Free File for your federal taxes if you make less than $84k, as well as for your state taxes if you make less than $48k, as well as some other situations such as if you are active-duty military or if you live in certain states (for your state return).

If you want to throw sand into the works and file these as paper forms instead of e-filing, you absolutely can do that by printing them out after completing the program, but PLEASE do not pay a tax preparer if you are eligible for Free File!!! It's a ripoff!!!!!!!!

Direct File is a great program that saves the government money (they do not have to pay third parties if they keep the program in-house) and helps protect taxpayer data security, but you DO NOT need to pay an accountant or risk filling out your return incorrectly just because it goes down.

February 2, 2025 - not Gaza but Jenin in the West Bank of Palestine.

Israeli forces blew up entire residential blocks in Jenin today as part of the violent operation it dubbed Operation Iron Wall, as it shifts its genocidal focus during the ceasefire in Gaza to areas across the West Bank, primarily in Jenin.

This violence in the West Bank is unprecedented and has been rapidly escalating. Airstrikes were never a common Israeli practice in the West Bank until recently.

Israel has been employing the exact same tactics in Jenin from its genocide in Gaza including restrictions on water, power and communications, airstrikes, snipers positioned on top of buildings, placing hospitals under siege, over 70% of the infrastructure and homes destroyed, residents of Jenin have been ordered to evacuate their homes, night raids and arbitrary abductions, killing sprees that include children with sniper bullets to their heads.

Jenin and Gaza are two significant hubs of resistance in Palestine. Israel's stated goal of this military operation is, as it has always been, to destroy the resistance.

You can read here to better understand the context connecting Gaza and Jenin while I try to wrap my head around the deafening silence and the nonexistent uproar of everyone including advocates of Palestine.
