Just to be crystal clear on where I’m at with this:
I own a gun. I have a gun so that if I ever have an injured goat and have to put them out of their misery, I can. It’s part of my responsibility to my herd. The gun lives in a safe. Luckily, I haven’t had to use it yet.
I also own a truck. For it, I have to be licensed by the state, insured, and have it registered with the state. Why? Because I could kill someone with it.
Gun ownership should be at least as onerous as owning that truck.
On the world’s stage…

Jon Stewart is a national fuckin treasure.
The German Supreme Courts are also moving to Mastodon.
The German government already has an extensive official Mastodon presence, via social.bund.de.
Today the German Surpreme Courts (subdivided into 5 branches) released a press release that they will know also be using Mastodon.
