Today, South Carolina's all-male Supreme Court upheld the state's 6-week ban.

We recently reported on how became the only state in the US with a men-only highest court:

@ProPublica The only thing "supreme" about our courts is the rich, white, male, Christofascist agenda they continue to uphold and force upon us.

Watching the House Hearing on the Withdrawal from Afganistan. Just another chance for the MAGA to cover up the surrender to the Taliban at Doha by Pompeo.

Same old obnoxious talking points by the MAGA cult; every thing that trump did was outstanding and Biden can not do anything right.

Of course the Republican show has the grieving Goldstar Families there.

Issa has used the term SHIT twice, proving that trump has made vulgar terms common.

Darrell Issa is a jerk.

@Helderweb Do these MAGA clowns ever consider just shutting the fuck up?

A Houston-area teacher was fired after attending a drag show at Hamburger Mary's downtown.

The 19-year veteran teacher was fired from her job at First Baptist Academy after posting on Facebook about her visit to the iconic Houston queer venue.

Watching a hearing for a 16 yr old gunman who ended the lives of 4 people at the Oxford HS in Michigan. Disgustingly sick kid who was 15 years old at the time he killed.

Worst than this child are the actions of his sick parents who bought multiple guns for their child.

Our country is sick and it seems like no politician will do anything about this.

Remember...this guy, Tommy Massie of Kentucky is the lead gun expert for the Republican Party.

I am so sick of all these guns in our society.

Kentucky disgrace

@w7voa I assume they will include negotiating with Republicans in good-faith, Republicans laughing and spitting in his face, a glass of warm milk, and in bed by 9pm.

Folks, get off Twitter. I don’t care where you go, be it Bluesky or the Fediverse, but leave Twitter.

Your continued involvement on Twitter supports this.

@juddlegum People are always blasting in their pants about the defense budget, but how much of that $$$ actually sustains/improves our military vs lines the pockets of defense contractors?

@Helderweb He's never done a single damn thing to differentiate himself from the gaggle of craven cowards of his party. Now he wants to run as some principled alternative to Trump? Please.

Section 230 is intact!

This is great news not just for and but also for the Fediverse.

It means that if something terrible, like a terrorist threat, gets hosted on your server, you are not legally liable for its contents.

And trust me, due to the realities of federation, there will be times when bad material will momentarily hit your server -- even if you're the world's greatest content moderator.

We can all breathe a sigh of relief. That is, for now.

@parkermolloy Considering the amount of Punisher skulls I've seen slapped on trucks, I'm not shocked at their confusion.
