@biplanepilot And if you want to get into the weeds, Saturday was the holiest day - Shabbos Shuva is the one between RH and YK and is the holiest day in Judaism…except to the Reform who have largely never heard of it.
@biplanepilot I understand that. However, we cannot blame all Christians for microagression when for most of them it’s plain old ignorance. Like the poor fellow who just moved here and asked on Facebook if there was anywhere to get a kosher chicken. I told him that back when I kept kosher we had to special order from Atlanta. Other people were sure any of the chicken places or grocery stores carried it. (WTF!)

@biplanepilot Christo-fascists commit macroagressions daily.
I don’t even bother anymore with the qualification that it doesn’t have to go all the way to concentration camps or legal segregation for a resurgence of those ideologies to violate and destroy basic human rights.
Because I think a lot of the GOP base has gotten conditioned to thinking both are fine.
North Carolina's GOP legislature on Friday passed a bill to upend election admin.
It takes away Dem majorities on election boards; lets GOP to oust elections director; & creates a structure more prone to gridlock.
Gov will veto but GOP has supermajority. https://boltsmag.org/north-carolina-state-elections-board-tie-votes-gridlock/
ORDERING IS NOW OPEN FOR ALL US HOUSEHOLDS!!!
(Link below and on our Linktree in bio.)
Please order your tests, whether you "have enough" or can afford to purchase them yourself.
Demanding the tests already set aside for you by the federal government proves we still care about the ongoing pandemic.
Show them we know C19 remains a threat. We demand more support.
If you can afford your own tests, please redistribute your allotment to larger families/households. 4 TESTS PER ADDRESS IS NOT ENOUGH. You can also give them to free pantries or directly to your unhoused neighbors.
Please also remember to help your neighbors and loved ones, especially elders, who may not have internet access or who otherwise lack the ability to place their own orders.
No one should miss out on their tests for lack of accessibility.
Get your free rapid tests here:
And remember to check ALL rapid tests you acquire against the FDA extended shelf life list! (Also on our Linktree for easy locating.)
Don't risk throwing away unexpired rapid test kits!

Time for more Dems to get on board and show some spine and a willingness to fight like Sen. Fetterman.
Not only is it the right thing to do, it is also a political act to help differentiate ourselves from a lawless party in thrall to criminal authoritarian.
Senator Durbin, are you listening?
We all need to contact our representatives and push for them to act and act now.
@janiceharayda We’ll have to get together one of these days.
Removing the cap on the amount that high income recipients pay on their SS taxes would go a long way to fix the SS deficit.
Why can’t high income recipients pay SS taxes at the same rate as a percentage of their income as lower wage people? They can, but the GOP doesn’t care about average people. They won’t impose any tax on the rich.
