I think a pet deposit is stupid but at least its a stupid I can understand you know. like sure a pet could cause more damage so extra "in case of damage" money is owed. whatever. at least I have a chance of getting it back. but pet rent is bonkers crazy. like no the amount of rent thats due is what the rent is. my cat isn't like raising property tax. normal rent isn't even calculated by number of people living in the house. you can't raise the rent when an extra person moves in. what. "pet rent". what the hell are you talking about. you sound insane. its a bunny rabbit

i have a lot of thoughts on the matter but i will say that fandom moving from semi-private blogs and communities to extremely public and algorithm-driven social media was a huge mistake that has changed fandom culture for the worse

🚨🚨 SENATE COMMITTEE MARKUP

The KIDS Act passed the House, but the fight isn't over.

Next Wednesday, August 5th, the Senate Commerce Committee will markup 5 bills.

The SCREEN Act - An explicit age verification bill for the entire internet - and the senate version of KOSA with the duty of care portion are the most notable, amongst the others. This is not a package, but individual bills.

The SCREEN Act Threatens Privacy Far Beyond Adult Websites

The Senate Commerce Committee is set to consider S. 737, the SCREEN Act, a sweeping age-verification bill that would require online services

Phone numbers and my own script below

Republican version of my script

Hello I am calling to talk about the Internet bills up for voting on August 5.

The SCREEN would enable constant surveillance of American citizens, and put the sensitive data of everyone - especially children - at risk.  it would pressure websites to contract with shady third-party verification companies to collect and store incredibly sensitive identifying info, like our drivers’ licenses and passports, in insecure databases.  The UK's disastrous rollout of the Online Safety Act is a perfect example of how unpopular, dangerous, and ineffective these laws are.  Age verification bills mandate or incentivize that personal data be collected all in one place, making it easy for hackers gather, endangering children' s information and safety. 

KOSA not only has similar problems, but gives state attorney generals too much power to sue any website for any reason. The last thing we need is a nanny state telling adults what we can and cannot see online.

Please spread the word to vote against these two bills this wednesday. And also look carefully for similar problems in any other bills.

Hello I am calling to talk about the Internet bills up for voting on August 5.

The SCREEN act placed inside this would enable constant surveillance of American citizens, and put the sensitive data of everyone - especially children - at risk.it would pressure websites to contract with shady third-party verification companies to collect and store incredibly sensitive identifying info, like our drivers’ licenses and passports, in insecure database  The UK's disastrous rollout of the Online Safety Act is a perfect example of how unpopular, dangerous, and ineffective these laws are.  Age verification bills mandate or incentivize that personal data be collected all in one place, making it easy for hackers gather, endangering children' s information and safety.With backing from far-right politicians and conservative groups, it’s clear what the Screen Act is really intended to do: censor our access to the Internet while collecting our data in droves. 

Kosa not only has similar problems, but gives state attorney generals too much power to sue any website for any reason. Very worrisome in this time of political extremism.  Past attempts at similar censorship at local levels led to kids facing difficulty finding resources to help with problems like anorexia because the filters decided talking about the problems was harmful!

Please spread the word to vote against these two bills this Wednesday! And also look carefully for similar problems in any other bills.

Inspired by my walking past a home built in 1754 in my new neighborhood, which isn't even the oldest building in the city. As someone born and raised in the Western US (where we do have some very old buildings, contrary to popular belief, just not in the middle of most cities), it made me curious!

When was the oldest extant building you can reasonably walk to from your home built?

20th century

19th century

18th century

17th century

16th century

15th century

14th century

13th century

12th century

11th century

10th century or before

Remaining time: 4 days 1 hour

(Use your judgement for definitions of "extant," it doesn't have to be used for its original purpose but my intention is a building that could theoretically still be used, not just the remnants of one.)

At this point I've seen like three unconnected pieces of American media set in a superficially idyllic small town with a big fuckoff lake that functions as a liminal boundary between the Known and the Unknown and in which a major character attempts suicide by drowning, and now I'm wondering if the Liminal Death Lake is just a thing American small towns have.

had a thought

[bustedlestatdoll]

my mom just had a 7cm brain tumor removed and since she's woken up she's been talking nonstop about this dream she had about going to an art gallery full of colourful paintings by a 'homosexual artist' named klimsdorf who was ethereal and wise, both young and old... at first she was convinced he was a real person but after failing to find him online she's accepted he was a figment of her subconscious mind and is now determined to bring him to life via painting his portrait herself. she's 67 and has never drawn in her life. and now this. blorbo from her tumor

[stars-n-kites]

my fucked up lup headcanon is that i think she probably forgets shes not an inanimate object anymore sometimes. like people around her will be having a conversation and she'll just sit there silently watching them until someone addresses her directly and she remembers she is physically present and people can see and hear her. she'll see something cool out and about and have the fleeting thought "damn, too bad i cant interact with that (because im an umbrella)" and then realize she CAN now

[shadeslayer]

its so fucked that not only did they erase our languages and beat and kill our people for using them but they stole the words of important tribes and important people and used them for the military and for trees and for food and for summer camps. average native american name is seen by non ntvs as a joke or something to use or consume, not a human being

[shadeslayer]

i like that ppl r thinking abt town names and things thats very good to be aware of but just to be clear this is actually specifically about other things actually, the things everyone but those looking up their nation forget about

sequoyah was the man who created the tsalagi syllabary before it was ever a tree

if i try to look for apparel or crafts to show off my chickasaw pride, i get results for chickasaw plums which is just a specific species of plum before i get results about human beings

others have mentioned if they google their nations name they get boot companies before their nations website!

theres a tweet that still haunts me that was about a Quirky Quasi American Restaurant in europe or somewhere that was being funny by being cowboy themed and their steaks were named after native american nations. even outside the usa we are nothing but literal dead meat for others consumption

"blackhawk" "apache" - fuck theres a whole wikipedia page for the way weve had our names used for weapons used to colonize and kill us and others!

yes talk about town and location names but you need to look farther than that. it gets so much worse, i promise
