honestly hate that every time there's an industry bad actor, lists of "works by marginalized authors to support instead" start circulating like it's a moral obligation to be done out of guilt, & it's crickets every other day of the year. my art is not to be taken in as a reactionary measure

America has never been a country where all eligible Citizens voted and had their say. Not even one day has this been true. The Voting Rights Act and legislation like John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act tried to put the USA on the path but SCOTUS & Republicans killed or gutted them

It’s the way the Roberts opinion praises itself for not deciding what an “unofficial act” is right now, while hamstringing any attempt to prove what one is in the meantime, and very loudly ignoring that any answer they dislike will just be overturned by them later

The 14th Amendment says if you were involved in an insurrection you can't be president. SCOTUS said they won't allow anyone to enforce that because of reasons they made up. The Constitution doesn't say the president is immune from criminal law. SCOTUS decided he is because of reasons they made up.
