Remember: no mandate, no majority. 37.75% of the electorate didn't vote; 31.5% voted for him; 30.6% voted for her.

‘…a scene in the coronation of Prince Charles where William kneels before him to say, “You are my Liege, I am your man.” Moving and touching. An FBI doing the same to a president, powerful not so touching’ (John Bolton, CNN, 12/11). At a juncture where I’m quoting Bolton. #cnn (loose trans.)

Hi new folks! I post on: intersections of tech/culture/justice, making+craft (zines, weird resin, letterpress/book arts, color+light, retro tech), directing a digital humanities research center, transformative justice, bookadjacent code/data. General enthusiast; laugh inappropriately loudly at puns.

These anti-trans attacks are designed to get at more than bathrooms. Where else will it be unlawful to be trans, gender nonconforming, or queer in public?
How long until sex segregation like this removes cis women from public spaces too?
How long until sex segregation like this removes cis women from public spaces too?
Nancy Mace has introduced a federal bathroom ban which would ban trans people from bathrooms in DCA and Dulles airports, national park bathrooms, museum bathrooms, and all federal building bathrooms.

Trump taps FCC's Brendan Carr to lead the agency
Carr was seen as a pretty conventional Republican with a pro-corporate outlook for most of his career. More recently, he has embraced Trumpian themes about social media, tech and television companies.

About that term "the masses." I too wince when I see see it. Members of the public have interests and opinions, the masses have tendencies and reax. The founding words of my media criticism are from sociologist Raymond Williams: “There are no masses, there are only ways of seeing people as masses.”
Not subject related, but use of the term "the masses" is a pet peeve. Gets my hackles up. As defense I present a thesaurus entry where most synonyms are derogatory. I always try to get a sense of the writer's intent bc the top entries are neutral, but find the connotation is usually dismissive.

How do you face fascism? I like Orwell's version: ground yourself in direct and immediate experience, trust your senses, find some joy, turn back to face the fascists and tell truths to combat the lies.
