If you download the SVG file of the flag of the Electorate of Baden from Wikipedia, you will see that some psychopath decided to make it out of a circle for some reason
Can I just say:
My first exposure to the WHA community, was someone tweeting a pic of wet Qifrey when he does the twin-bottle experiment. Someone tweeted something along the lines of "No one can protect his womb from me", and honestly, I drew that scene way to lewd, because I ...
I grew up shit-talking in video game lobbies: Gears of War, Call of Duty, Madden. A classic 2000s kid.
At 16, I couldn’t have imagined asking my mom to help me log in so I could play Call of Duty online. The idea of even teaching her how to do it makes me laugh. And having her whip out her ID and enter her information to prove that she's actually my parent? Ha!
But that appears to be what the government wants to now mandate as a default. Isn’t it enough that parents already help their kids buy these games and pay for the online subscriptions using their credit cards?
More broadly, I worry about an ever-expanding world of permissioned spaces for kids.
I also grew up riding my bike around town, going to skate parks, regular parks, restaurants, and friends’ houses. I didn’t need my parents’ explicit sign-off before entering each place, even though the risks were often comparable to those online, if not greater.
Safetyism is colonizing the internet just as it has colonized the physical world.
A Justice Department lawyer just signed a memo saying disabled Americans have no right to live in their own homes. In the same document, she admits no court in the country agrees with her.
Read that again. A government official wrote down, in black and white, that her own argument is wrong by every legal standard of the last thirty years, and she made it anyway.
Here is what it means in plain terms.
Right now, 8.4 million people get help that lets them stay in their own homes. Aides who help them dress. Care that lets them work, see friends, raise their kids, sleep in their own beds at night.
This memo tells states they can cut all of it.
And if they cut it, where do those people go? Into nursing homes. Into institutions. Into facilities where someone else decides when you wake up, what you eat, who your roommate is, whether you go outside today.
A lawyer who has visited people locked in these places said their whole world shrinks to one hallway. That is the future this memo is opening the door to.
Keeping people in their own homes is cheaper. In one case, home care cost under $7,500 a year. The nursing home would have cost close to $50,000. The cruel option is also the expensive one. They want to spend more money to make people's lives worse.
So why?
Because last summer Trump signed an order to deal with homelessness by force, by sweeping people off the streets and committing them. He said it out loud during the campaign: the mentally ill belong back in institutions.
The only thing standing in the way was the law that says people deserve to live in their own communities.
This memo is how they get around it. And it landed the same week Republicans slashed Medicaid, giving every cash-strapped state the perfect excuse to start cutting.
A think tank drew up the plan. A lawyer wrote the memo. A president signed the order. Three signatures, and millions of people could lose the right to their own front door.
We are about to spend the summer celebrating 250 years of American freedom.
Some Americans are about to find out it doesn't include them.
