I don't understand why Republicans hate Hunter Biden so much. He's basically everything they love. He's anti-taxes, pro-guns, and he lied to the feds. The only thing lacking is an attempt to overthrow an election. 🤷‍♂️

5/ We need an agency at the table that can achieve ODNI consensus on the following point: ensuring the health and well-being of every person in our country is a direct investment in national security. Full stop.

So, how do we do that? Well, it's not by being reactive to existential crises, like a pandemic or climate change. We don't do that by being regressive, either. Banning access to reproductive care and transgender care is moving us in the wrong direction.

​​ New #Calckey ​​ release candidate! ​​

This will be the last release candidate before the launch of the next major version! We've taken this time to add some requested features, stomp out many some bugs, and ensure that everyone is getting the experience they deserve.

Also, it's my ( @kainoa@calckey.social ) 20th birthday tomorrow, so if you could boost this, I'd really appreciate it, as we've all worked really hard on this 🥺

There's a lot of that going around in Russia, but I'm simply not knowledgeable enough to speculate about the attitudes of the "normalize things with the West" crowd in Russia.
