Porn was only ever the cover.
In half the country, these laws now effectively mandate facial scans to access any material deemed "harmful to minors" by the state attorney general or a conservative parent.
What they passed is much, much broader than people generally realized.

Operating exactly as the GOP intended, folks.
The Trump Administration killed over 383 active clinical trials and directly harmed more than 74,000 Americans with lasting future impacts for the public at large.

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

AG Platkin: I went to law school, I chose to go into public service, I took the same oaths these folks did.
What part of that oath says "You will use the privilege of power that you have to starve children"?

With a “WOW!,” President Trump posts a claim about DOGE and “royalties linked to Obamacare” that originated on a satirical website. That site’s own About section reads: “Everything on this website is fiction… If you believe that it is real, you should have your head examined.”

Ah, good, a thing of beauty to pause over & relax with!
A little ode to last month! I associate October with many round things: pumpkins, acorns, apples, but also my cats, who become extremely round and fluffy as their fur thickens. Here’s my little ode to the roundest month of the year 🟠
