Okay, yeah, this seems to explain a lot of the FSF's toxicity and failure to grow/evolve.

RT @therealfitz@twitter.com

Thread: This tweet got me to thinking: is there a way to show just how broken the FSF is as an organization?

Is there a way to show how their board isn't really a functioning board, but rather an enabling body for RMS?

Turns out, there is! And I will show you in *four* tweets. twitter.com/therealfitz/status

Micro SF/F stories by O Westin

A spaceship landed, and an alien emerged.
"Greetings, Earthlings, we come in peace. Take us to-"
"Do you have a tractor beam?"
"-your... Pardon?"
"A tractor beam. Or some other way of lifting something huge and heavy?"
"Of course, but-"
"Do you know where the Suez channel is?"

I don't like spinach, and I'm glad I don't, because if I liked it I'd eat it, and I just hate it. - Ron Paul

Google’s dirty secret is that Googlebot gets more access than everybody else and basically gets to scrape the web. This gives Google a huge advantage over any alternative search engine.

Call or write your Senators again today and demand they pass #S1, the For the People Act. It's the bill that will protect everyone's access to voting nationwide.

If you can afford to contribute, consider Stacey Abrams' Fair Fight. (fairfight.com/) I just made another donation "in honor" of the voter suppression bill that Kemp just passed.

There are also a number of other groups working on voting rights need out help in donations or volunteer work.

* Brennan Center for Justice (brennancenter.org/)
* NAACP (naacp.org/)
* League of Women Voters (lwv.org/) <-- LWV sponsors grassroots voter registration drives and fights for fair, nonpartisan redistricting- many chapters nationwide of Fair Districts.)

Republicans will keep trying to suppress the vote. We'll keep stopping them.

Georgia governor signs into law sweeping voting bill that curtails the use of drop boxes and imposes new ID requirements for mail voting:

All levers of state power exist to serve Trump's personal goals, the business of the country be damned.

Easily the most nakedly corrupt President in living memory.
