โWhich brings us to the most damning indictment of all: Law firms that canโt even advocate successfully on their own behalf have no business advocating for anyone else.โ

People saying "we should debate nazis in the marketplace of ideas rather than punching them" seem to forget that collectively, humanity determined in the marketplace of ideas that the only way you can debate nazis is to punch them.
๐ฅ No more imposed licensing - Get back the cost of your Windows License! ๐ฅ
When acquiring a new laptop you often end up dealing with an imposed pre-installed Microsoft Windows operating system. Even if you do not want to use it, you still need to pay for the Windows license. ๐ง๐ต๐ถ๐ ๐ถ๐ ๐๐ป๐ณ๐ฎ๐ถ๐ฟ.
The Refund4Freedom initiative guides users in how to get their money back in these cases and demands the end of this practice that limits user freedom.
Bullshit and fraud are the Trump regime's touchstones, so it's not even a tiny surprise to learn that RFKjr's "Make America Healthy Againโ report cites bogus "studies" and lies about real ones.
Fine reporting from Notus, a news site you probably hadn't heard about.

Reporter Marisa Kabas takes a detailed look at at how Marco Rubio is aligning the U.S. State Department with explicitly white Christian supremacist and neo-Nazi policies. Horribly, these terms are in no way hyperbolic. Hard to read, but we must not look away. https://www.thehandbasket.co/p/state-department-office-of-remigration
Whoever made this deserves a medal.

The antidote to materialism isn't minimalism; it's maintenance. Keep things. Fix them. Mend them. Grow old with possessions you know well because you've cared for them.
Too funny NOT to share...! (Now this is a good use of AI!)

But what you MAY NOT REMEMBER about the history of the #orange #taco, what with #TACOTrump making the rounds, is the #DoritoLocoTaco
I say this not to praise #TacoBell (because, ew.) but rather to remind everyone that thereโs an embarrassment of insanely orange tacos out there for people to use.
Please, stop calling the Orange Hemorroids #TACO. Tacos are awesome, the Grifter In Chief is not. Don't ruin tacos for me, please.
Wheelchair user. The scourge of dickheads parking cars and vans across the pavement and completely blocking my way is getting worse. I'm completely helpless and am so frustrated, angry and upset by its impact on my daily life, I now carry a penknife in my chair to puncture tyres.
Well, well, well - it seems that somebody in the Trump regime understands the thin ice Noem, Bondi, and the other defendants in D.V.D. v. DHS et al are on. Several days ago I wrote about one of the plaintiffs, O.C.G., who DHS sent to Mexico, without any notice or hearing as to his fear for his safety there.

PLEASE don't post links without an explanation of what the hell they are, if they're not "self-documenting" upon examination (e.g., obvious from the link itself). Remember that images and associated headlines don't always load, and it shouldn't be a big bother to add a line of explanation, and not just say stuff like:
"Wow, this changes everything!": https:// ...
C'mon people. You can do this.
Meta's claim that they have a legitimate interest in using user data to train their simulated intelligence is ridiculous!
Once the data is fed into their LLM, exercising data subject rights such as access or deletion becomes impossible. Depriving millions of people of their rights cannot be legitimate. Period.
Makes me wonder whether Meta's data protection officers are actually part of the marketing department.
