Remember that this government will be disbanded a year from now. (Can't wait.)

The left should have a "Project 2027" ready for quickly undoing most of the damage that these fuckers have been causing.

Watch the extortionists (oops, #publishers) throw hissy fit and swear they'll just stop doing business in Illinois and other place threatening this action. Overall, it's a criminal racket what publishers do to #libraries when it comes to electronic resources.

In the criminal racket that is #HealthCare insurance in the U.S. At one point, my doc suggested putting me on one of these (I am a bit chubby); I declined and I keep exercising. Part of the reason was I knew this #fuckery was possible.

What kind of “fuckery” is this?

If there’s one place you’ll find fuckery, it’s in a fuckery. In fact, you’d probably find all sorts of fuckery in a fuckery, including: —treachery, ill treatment or behaviour —nonsense, foolishness…

This is some serious #fuckery, and example of what I have often pointed out: the privilege of those having digital access vs. those who do not. And FFS, man has been a season holder for 50 fucking years. Give the man his paper ticket FFS.
