  Here's the thing, though: Everyone has an accent. Trumpy has an older "Noo Yawk" accent among boomers; so does Chuck Schumer. Those of us who are millennials don't have that accent, but we do have a different accent that is closer to standard American English. Saying you don't have an accent is like saying you don't have an ideology: if you think you don't have one and other people do, it's not them, it's you.

  residents of conservative states are prolific purveyors of porn and reportedly highly interested in the more “lurid” types of porn that conservatives speak out against.

  Let's just put it this way: the fash like seeing me and my friends naked without considering me and my friends human beings. They have a fetish for us and want to see us dead. It's disgusting.

  Hey, remember when Kristi Neom tweeted “If Joe Biden federalizes the National Guard, that would be a direct attack on states’ rights. Over the last several years, we’ve seen Democrats try to take away our Freedoms of religion, assembly, and speech. We can’t let them take away our right to defend ourselves, too.”?

  Kristi Noem meant to add "That's our job!" at the end.

  If Trump wants to go after criminals, he should resign and turn himself in to a Manhattan DA for sentencing for those 34 felony counts.

  Missed it by one week, but this explainer by Stephen T. Stone differentiating between Moderation, Discretion, and Censorship was five years ago! https://www.techdirt.com/2020/05/28/moderation-v-discretion-v-censorship-theyre-not-same/

  So this was the week when Sen. Tom Cotton (Fascist-Arkansas) suggested using the military on protesters? I guess we see now what is happening in Los Angeles as to what that looks like in practice.

  I know about LGBT persecution

  I know for a fact about persecution of queer people such as myself in far too many US states because I read Erin in the Morning.

  Well, reality does have a well-known left-wing bias, so it's no wonder the right-wing hates it!

  Colbert was right:

  "Reality has a well-known [left-wing] bias."

  Exactly. Trump isn't so much "anti-immigrant" or xenophobic as he is a white supremacist piece of shit.

  Geographical note about Long Island

  Just so you know, there are four boroughs on Long Island: Kings, Queens, Nassau, and Suffolk. Kings county and Queens county are part of NYC and are the boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens, respectively. Nassau county is closest out of the non-boroughs in Long Island to the city limits, and outside of NYC, it's the most populous county of Long Island (it's also where Nassau Coliseum is and where the New York Islanders play). Suffolk County is the easternmost county of Long Island and is where the Hamptons and Montauk are. So I technically live in Long Island since I live in Brooklyn, but it's not what people think of when people hear "Long Island"; they think of Nassau County and Suffolk County.

  Trans people in particular need a lot of help right now, so look into charities and such that help trans people.

  Trans people in NYC have Callen-Lorde, which is a non-profit health clinic and pharmacy serving the LGBTQIA+ community. They really helped me out with my gender transition and unlike other trans people, I didn't have any horrifying experiences with medical gatekeeping. The care they offered is sublime and worthy of your dollars! Their website is here: https://www.callen-lorde.org
