You know what would be a welcome addition to the fediverse? In addition to the Reply, Boost, and Favorite buttons, how ‘bout a question mark for those toots that you reread four times and still don’t understand what they were trying to say.

What you’re illustrating is the prospect of our personal rights and freedoms being subsumed by (Catholic) religious doctrine - beginning with abortion and continuing through the entire spectrum of sexual behavior, long codified & with eternal damnation attached for “sinners.” They’d include masturbation if they could figure a way to monitor.

Signed by Gov. Ron DeSantis, the legislation unfairly restricts most Chinese citizens — and most citizens of Cuba, Venezuela, Syria, Iran, Russia, and North Korea — from purchasing homes in the state.
