for some people, smoking weed every day is is completely fine and maybe even psychologically healthy and for other people it is one of the worst things you can do for yourself and 90% of the people who think they are in Group 1 are actually in Group 2

Fellow lefties: “news” in Trump’s & GOP’s relentless “Soros-purchased DA” racist & antisemitic bile is *centrality* of Protocols of Elders of Zion to GOP now. Please, friends, step up. Here, my rabbits will show you what solidarity looks like.

Ohio Proud Boys are claiming, in contradiction to their actions, that their threats against the Chesterland church’s DSH event was an April Fool’s Joke.
They spent weeks riling people up, then locked their Telegram after a white supremacist firebombed the church.

Everyone I’ve spoken with who’s taken their kids to these events consistently describe it positively
Here’s my interview with a 6-year old (and parent) about their first Drag Story Hour yesterday in Montgomery, NY, which was countered by religious zealots and Proud Boys.

This video is representative of how every Story Hour is.
This is all it is.
This is what the far right thinks needs to be eradicated.
Insane.

9) But what Twitter is going to start doing tonight flips the equation - it is going to ask its most important creators to *pay Twitter* instead of the other way around. Every other social media platform has found a way to pay its creators, not charge them. Will it work?

1) As someone who was (briefly) in charge of the Twitter Media team - the group tasked with getting high profile people onto Twitter, and verification - AND as one of the few ever to voluntarily give up the blue check, I want to try to articulate how risky this policy change is.

incorrect. verification data is stored in the balls
