The rules are the rules…

Someone put this in the thread on my SI tips and tricks--and the rules are still the rules, so... (Tom Holland has just been an unusually big part of my mental health conversation this summer, that's not weird I refuse to think it is weird.)

Going into this new school year, let me say how much I hate this. My students are sick all the time and this will make it worse. It is dangerous for the kids and the adults who are around them.

Trump: "Very importantly, vaccinations for hepatitis B, covid-19, and influenza, among others, are no longer recommended for all children"

Listen to Todd Blanche—Trump’s nominee for AG—tell faith leaders that the Justice Dept is working with the White House to stop the shipping of abortion pills into banned states. “We will have victory, victory will be soon, and it will be permanent,” he said.

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

As a blue state resident, I’m so glad I pay a shit ton of federal taxes so that same federal government can punish my state just because it feels like it.

The Trump regime admits in court papers that it canceled energy grants to blue states simply because they're blue states. This is a fascist hijacking of our government, a disgusting betrayal of the nation's taxpayers. Get angry. Get active. Defeat the dictator.

The asshole administration is planning to remove the mining buffer around Chaco Canyon in New Mexico. This is being done without tribal or expert input and the public comment time is incredibly, and cowardly short. Please comment to help try and save Chaco. www.koat.com/article/chac...

🚨The Trump administration finalized a rule narrowing the definition of "harm" under the ESA, weakening habitat protections. Under the new rule, destroying an endangered species habitat or nest may no longer be illegal, putting countless species at greater risk of extinction.🔗https://bit.ly/4aL6Ljs

In Cambria, chilling with the dogs in the truck while hubs checks out an antique shop. Dude comes out and asks about the pups and comments on their leashes (stealies and bears). Had a great visit about our shows and how much it hurt to lose Bobby. We really are everywhere. 💀⚡️♥️
