Whatever you think about the specific acts being charged here, there are plenty of lessons to learn.

There are cameras everywhere, and some of them are connected to license plate readers.

ACLU has a web form for submitting comments on this document:

https://www.regulations.gov/document/DOS/_FRDOC/_0001-6771

The offending part of that document:

To comply with E.O. 14168, “ Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government,” the Department updated the form to replace the term “gender” with “sex.” The U.S. Passport conforms with the standards set by the E.O. and the International Civil Aviation Organization, which among other things determine the various fields on the passport's biographical data page. Consistent with the E.O., the revised DS-11 will request the applicant's biological sex at birth, male “M” or female “F.” Amendments to the fields and instructions (section 3) have been made to reflect this.

If you’re concerned about having your name on record, you can submit comments anonymously on the federal register website: Application For Passport (DS-11), Renewal Application (DS-82), and Replacement, name change, correction (DS-5504).

Stand up, indeed.

Not entirely "new," and not mine - but there was some interest in such a thing expressed over the weekend.

That is all.

This place came up in conversation over the weekend. I'd made a similar thing back when kbin.social existed. It didn't take off at all then, and went down with the ship.

That was well over a year ago now, and the landscape has changed (in oh so many ways). Seems like a good time to jumpstart something like this again, and so ... here I am.

Wondering if anyone has had success with an automod. This one was brought to my attention, which I'm told "should work," but I would be interested to know other people's experiences.

When Arlo was a little puppy, he would sit like this, with one hind leg kicked way out to the side. I started coming over and saying "CHICKEN LEG" and then grabbing the top part of that leg and giving it a few squeezes.

He still sits like this. I still squeeze the chicken leg.

Private security dragged out a woman who had been interrupting a Kootenai County Republican Central Committee legislative town hall in Idaho Saturday as Sheriff Robert Norris stood by, spurring a disagreement between the sheriff and Coeur d’Alene’s police chief over the First Amendment implications of the incident.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

Whoever did this, hats off to you.

Edit: Whoever took this video and posted it, hats off to you, too. It takes a village.

If you know Milo Rossi, you know this will be fun.

Also, my takeaway here is that Meta is turning the propaganda up to eleven.

This is resistance, and this kind is risky. I know that not very many people will see this, but if you are a person who knows or suspects the identity of any of the people doing this kind of thing, no you don't.

Resist.
