Did Walmart change the Great Value brand creamy peanut butter? It seems less even, almost grittier, somewhat "aerated" in its consistency, even when stirred. There's a noticeable difference in its texture and quality, even from a couple months ago. Is this in response to economic conditions?

“US supreme court seems poised to let parents opt out of LGBTQ+ storybooks: Christian and Muslim parents in Maryland are seeking to pull elementary school children from certain classes”

Wow, so what if trans and queer kids walked out of class every time a teacher mentioned a Christian or Muslim? Would that be okay?

Here’s what the tracker’s creator, Danielle Harlow, had to say at time of launch.

“I can no longer be silent or "professional". I have so few skills to fight the cancer of fascism that is spreading through the country but as a "data person" -- inspired by the work of the BlueSky account USA Disappeared Tracker (https://lnkd.in/gmc8nFNr) -- I created a dashboard to track people who are deported, detained or renditioned for political reasons by the Trump Adminstration.”

YouTube removes 'gender identity' from hate speech policy
