  4. The Guardian: It’s time for Mark Zuckerberg to resign from Meta. “Ushering in hope for the future of technology requires changing Meta’s leadership now, so that the future is collectively imagined and built upon a new reputation and commitment.

  15. #NewHampshire’s 2020 law abolishing deadlines for #lawsuits alleging #sexualassault cannot be applied #retroactively, the state #SupremeCourt ruled Wednesday.

    The ruling came in the case of Randy Ball, who sued the #RomanCatholic Bishop of Manchester in 2023 alleging he was #raped by a #priest at a summer camp in the 1970s.

  16. The #executive branch has become nothing more than a #protection #racket under the #gop. Under the leadership of #trump almost the entire #republican party is guilty of committing #extortion, #bribery, #fraud, #securitiesfraud, #moneylaundering, and of course #electionRacketeering.

    Businesses are routinely #threatened with #lawsuits and denial of process on the whim of these organized #criminal #thugs, who use the structure of Federal, State and local legal processes to commit #RICO acts.

  18. Don't feel like a man or woman? Feel like... just a person?
    Questioning and just want some space? Or do you feel distinctly ungenderable today?

    Support Ryan in their legal case for the UK Government to stop assigning genders to people who aren't into it! Let us correct the gd paperwork already.

    Yes, I'm kink-shaming policy right now! Treat people like people, gdi.
    It's nice to just exist as an individual person.

    I'll wander around, do daily tasks, or fill forms that affirm my right to live life -- wildly enough! -- left tf alone.
    I don't think a train company really gives a crap if I wear a dress or a cravat.
    Just... having a grand old time, existing in a way that is apparently queer: 'as an human'. That's it.

    I don't think marketing teams shit themselves over an 'X', 'I', or 'U' outside the two letters you were told to assume were possible.
    Oh yeah, and intersex people exist too. Some are cis.

  19. I knew this was coming. Now that the #SupremeCourt is packed with #Christofascist #zealots with no respect for established precedent, and who have demonstrated an eagerness to rewrite #Constitution in their ideological image, #Christians are filing #lawsuits challenging the #JohnsonAmendment—the #IRS rule that prevents #religiousOrganizations from engaging in #politics, and influencing #legislation. This is another step towards merging #Christianity with the #government.
