https://explore.fednow.org/ <---- more about FedNow

Everyone should be calling and emailing their representatives about this. It is not mandatory as of now so we still have time. Make a big deal out of it like the RESTRICT Act, they go hand in hand. If even conservatives are going against the restrict Act after all the emails and calls they received, we can do the same thing with this. You can use chatgpt to help you write a letter if you need it.

n WHY isn’t kun going to that awards show n music festival in macau n WHY isn’t he going to kcon? n WHY r we finding out about this from third parties n not the actual company that is responsible for letting us know? there is absolutely no statement like what is going on

#i understand kun is entitled to his privacy but we know absolutely nothing. sm themselves have not said he isn’t participating that’s not #normal. kcon is literally 2 months away there’s no way this is about his ankle #didn’t johnny 127 just injure himself n they released a statement n said he wouldn’t participate in activities. but to do that for kun it’s #too much work right? how did i het stuck un weishenville i swear every week i have something new to be upset about #.txt

U.S. Marshalls Spied on Abortion Protesters Using DATAMINR >

Twitter’s “official partner” monitored the precise time and location of post-Roe demonstrations, internal emails show.

DATAMINR, AN “OFFICIAL PARTNER” of Twitter, alerted a federal law enforcement agency to pro-abortion protests and rallies in the wake of the reversal of Roe v. Wade, according to documents obtained by The Intercept through a Freedom of Information Act request.

Internal emails show that the U.S. Marshals Service received regular alerts from Dataminr, a company that persistently monitors social media for corporate and government clients, about the precise time and location of both ongoing and planned abortion rights demonstrations. The emails show that Dataminr flagged the social media posts of protest organizers, participants, and bystanders, and leveraged Dataminr’s privileged access to the so-called firehose of unrestricted Twitter data to monitor constitutionally protected speech.

[Sam Biddle, The Intercept, May 15 2023]

AN OPEN LETTER to STATE GOVERNORS & LEGISLATURES (ALASKA ONLY)

Out-ing Minority Students to Their Abusers - Safeguards needed in HB 382

I am writing to express my profound concerns regarding the proposed HB 382 legislation: Out-ing Minority Students to Their Abusers, which aims to involve parents in the education process but may inadvertently expose vulnerable LGBTQ+ students, and others, to harmful environments. As any survivor of domestic violence is acutely aware; ensuring the safety and well-being of all students is paramount, especially those from marginalized communities. While I acknowledge the intention behind HB 382, it is crucial to consider the potential for misuse of this legislation, which would further exacerbate the already high rates of harm and mortality among LGBTQ+ youth. Therefore, I call you to incorporate additional safeguards into the bill to protect the privacy and safety of these students, or alternatively, reject the bill entirely to rework it with the safety of ALL students prioritized. Specifically, measures must be implemented to ensure that information about a student's gender identity and romantic interests is not disclosed without their explicit consent to anyone. The goal of our education system should be to foster an inclusive, safe, and supportive environment for all students, regardless of their personal demographics. By prioritizing the privacy and safety of vulnerable students, we can ensure that every child has the opportunity to learn, thrive, and grow without fear of discrimination or harm. I urge you to consider these concerns and take action to protect the rights of students in Alaska. Thank you for your attention to this important matter. Protect the privacy of all students! We’re so pro-life; we’ll martyr our queer! Safeguards needed in HB 382!

Ur white kids wouldn’t be so easy to radicalize if y’all spoke about race and being actively anti racist in ur homes btw

#I feel no sympathy for the mom who wrote in to that article 💀#when y’all just don’t talk about race #ur kids that have power in a white supremacist society are very likely to get indoctrinated like that’s just how it works #it’s why I don’t feel bad for white women who’s sons turn out to be misogynistic after never speaking about feminism in the home #u don’t JUST lead by example it is ur duty to teach those are ur KIDS #like obviously sometimes shit happens but most of the time u have a very active role in guiding ur kid into who they’re gonna be #and if you don’t take the time to dismantle these things that are being pushed at ur kid from every outside source #I cannot feel bad when they eventually turn against you #let’s be so fr #this is why I don’t have much sympathy for the whole alt right pipeline convo #at this point in time it is so easy to combat that with consistent conversation and moderation #WHICH IS ANOTHER THING #I get kids should have privacy and all but call me an old head y’all are giving em too much #u are the PARENT u don’t have to watch ur kid 24/7 but there’s no way ur kid is able to make racist jokes #or watch Nazis on yt without ur knowledge #let’s pick up the pace please like damn

Like yeah I understand that laws and shit exist for a reason, and that a decent enough amount of the time they protect and help people. But goshhhhhhh right now I really wish it was easier to gain custody of a child you know isn't being treated right but there's nothing you can PROVE, because so many people don't think of children as human beings and don't think that they deserve rights.

#ramblings of an arrow #aaaaaaaaaa #gotta somehow stay on good terms with my parents and figure out how to stroke their egos in the right way #in order to try to convince them to give me custody of my fifteen year old little sister #which is SO unlikely #but also this is so actively harmful to her mental health #girl has no privacy and no way to communicate with anyone that isn't strictly monitored by my parents #she doesn't have a phone #if she wants to text me or any of her friends she has to use my mom's phone #and my mom reads through the conversations after the fact #to make things worse my mom WORKS at her school #so she can't get away from the ever watchful eyes of my parents *anywhere*#they completely uprooted and upended her entire life because she kissed one boy one time #made her move schools and moved churches and went so far as to threaten to move to a different state entirely because #because she kissed a boy??#SHE'S FIFTEEN #she lost her entire support system and can't contact any of her old friends #at least not without it being strictly monitored by my parents #like she just wants some room to BREATHE

Argh.

#It is so ridiculous that this kid has FIVE parental figures and I'm the only one who's actually a good 'parent' to them #One other of the parental figures I've spent a few YEARS brute-forcing into being better at it and have to constantly keep doing so #And one of the other ones is just selfish and oblivious and overbearing and kind of useless and more like a kid than a parent #And the last 2 are actively abusive and just fucking terrible people who make the kids' life - and my life for that matter - a nightmare #How am I the only one who is any good at this??#I have no training or experience except a) being very good at loving cats and b) being raised in a horrible nightmarish abusive home #So I'm basically doing what MY family should have done for ME #And it's not fair bc I'm fighting the others every fucking step of the way just to TRY to make this kid's life less miserable than mine was #Like it is such a battle #And it is like a revolutionary unheard-of never-occurred-to-them concept for me to say 'Have you asked [kid] what they want?'#Bc they all automatically go for power struggles and selfishness and treating the kid like a possession #And it's only the one other 'parent' who will even fucking listen to me!#Like it took me a year just to reach the point where this kid trusted me enough to say 'no thanks' about anything #And w/ the parent who sometimes listens to me - the most constant freaking thing I do is ask 'Why?' bc they usually have no actual REASON #No legitimate reason for this rule they've decided or thing they've refused or anything! Just limiting the kid's life bc of how THEY feel #But also like if the kid says something would make a situation worse or better or whatever I freaking listen to them #Bc they have greater insight into the situation bc it's their freaking life and their experiences!#And when they want to spend literal hours describing their new video game I listen and inquire and comment on the cool parts!#And I don't give them 'orders' or anything bc what they have lost the most in this shitty situation is the right to have ANY agency #I always ask before I do things even just opening a drawer to look for a concealer they borrowed bc it's essential to respect their privacy #Bc they don't GET any from anybody else!!!!!#I literally have had to have so many arguments with the other half-decent parent just to get them to stop going through their stuff!#And again the other 3 people are frankly fucking terrible #Actively negative #Two of them actively evil #And yes I've tried to get authorities involved many times but they fucking refuse to do anything I've tried over and over and OVER #So I'm parenting this kid bc holy shit no one else is any good at it #And I'm so angry and tired and upset and I love them so much and can't fix this other shit for them #And I'm so flabbergasted that out of 5 ppl I'm it: the only decent parent #It's not fair to this kid

i have been unreasonably agonizing over whether or not to make an instagram these past two weeks . Lordddd

#nightmare.personal #LIKE . LIKE LOGICALLY RIGHT THIS IS NOT AN ISSUE #IF PPL WANTED TO VIOLATE MY PRIVACY THERE ARE MUCH EASIER WAYS #i'm literally on the internet in a LOT of other places publicly bc activism #my private account with like probably 15 max followers where i post photos of lizards will not be the breaking point #but being told that creating social media accounts will ruin my life and get me doxxed and hurt has . been interesting !#it's fine it's fine i will probably make one anyway <3 Lord

FIREFOX WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM LATELY

my dude you can't be making my computer crash when I only have like 20 tabs open. that's rookie shit!

anyway my computer crashed right before the interview ended and too much memory was going ... somewhere ... for me to get R running right and they didn't tell me it was going to be a case study project thing that I'd be doing today instead of just a normal interview and AAAAAA.

maybe tomorrow I can just be fucking normal because oh my god. this is too stressful.

also my desk chair is starting to just. randomly. drop down very slowly. which means that at some point sooner than I want to I'll have to get another one. which SUCKS. but FINE. GOD.

#i still feel okay about this.#mostly after talking to my job coach buddy who was like 'wow this is—no joke—an inappropriate process they're putting you through'#so you know what yeah. he's right. i've had three interviews in three days #and this one was a surprise!! code in front of someone!!!#which if you're not familiar is just the most horrifying experience #NO ONE should have to code in public #it's an activity best done in the privacy of your own home with no one else looking at you #and i think he's right—i should definitely make sure that this isn't the norm for this company #to be EXTRA SUPER INTENSE and chaotic with its employees #but i'm also kind of inclined anyway to just take the job and get a year of experience (or whatever) on my resume #and if it sucks hit da bricks #and if it's like this now because they're a bunch of overexcited nerds with no talent acquisition department and otherwise it's fine #great! so much the better!#i hate that academia is so trash that i'm like 'wait this isn't normal' when someone else is like 'yeah it's not supposed to work like that #because this? well it's not as bad as a campus visit that's for sure!!#i only have ONE interview a day instead of back-to-back half-hour meetings with an entire department!!#and now i get to do things like go to the gym!#instead of say 'okay well there's about two hours left until dinner and i have to chat with the grad students'#or whatever #and say 'omg wow $70K as a junior analyst?!' because that's like a decent base salary for an assistant professor #meanwhile everyone in industry is like wtf why are they making you interview so rapidly like this that is not enough money etc etc #anyway. i'm tired. i think i'll go lift heavy things so at least it feels like there's a reason to be sweating my ass off.
