Trump is super mad about basically everything right now and is now telling Senators they can't go on vacation until his bill passes. (Which I don't think he has the right to do, but it's a sign of his blustering toddler despot energy right now). Republican Senators are complicit and/or little scared babies so none of them are telling him to fuck off like a grown ass adult should when spoken to like that.
Most of them do not like this bill but they are cowards. NONETHELESS. Keep calling them. Every day. Especially the ones up for re-election next year, and especially in tight races.
And just throw shit out and see what works. Joni Ernst now has a Dem veteran running against her specifically because she's so awful and he is very popular already. Nathan Sage? I think. Mention him.
Susan Collins is VERY aware of the several strong Dem challengers popping up now to challenge her. She keeps sort of waffling (on brand for her) about maybe not running next year.
Thom Tillis is so, so, so aware of how much those Medicaid cuts are going to devastate his state of North Carolina. Push that fucking button. (He printed out little handouts about it to hand out in the Senate as if the other Republican Senators care about his state or him.)
Rand Paul says he won't vote on it. Encourage that. Even if his reasons are not about compassion.
Lisa Murkowski claims to be a scared little bunny. And she might be. She opposes the cuts but might vote for them anyway (scared little bunny). Press her not to.
Ron Johnson claims it doesn't have a chance of passing but keep calling him anyway.
Stuff like that. Mike Lee is probably going to vote yes on the whole bill, but he was harassed into walking back his support for the sale of public lands (for now). (Though it helps that the Senate Parliamentarian threw it out first, I believe.)
Also mention that the House Republicans are begging the Senate the toss out or change certain provisions because they now regret voting for it (but want the Senate to do their jobs for them. Weak ass bitches.)
You could also potentially mention how LOW Trump's numbers are on every single issue. His hold is tenuous. If they wanted to, they could break it and be heroes. (I mean not really but depending on the person, flattery works.)
Oh. And some people have started calling it The Murder Bill.
You do not need to live in a Senator's state to call that senator, though they will likely listen more to someone who is and who makes that clear. But what you want to do is point to actions you are preparing to take if they vote yes. Such as supporting another candidate with actual action and money. They are hoping people will forget by next year but oh no, Americans are paying attention now and we are organizing.
Trump might primary them but... he's gonna primary some of them anyway. And even if he does, the people are also gonna move votes away from them.
I've also been asking if they want this to be their legacy, voting for the murder bill that is going to devastate America for generations. Especially with the older Senators. lol We know how to edit wikipedia. They don't.

honestly, especially in the current state of the world, you all have GOT to kill whatever puritanical voice inside your head keeps insisting that if something is erotic it has no social, artistic, or intellectual merit.
stop acting as if someone can’t enjoy both erotica and literary fiction or classics. it’s not some dichotomy.
stop acting as if erotic art can’t be poignant and meaningful. and that includes all erotic art - not just fine art.
stop insisting that sex scenes or erotic material ruin movies and shows just because you, personally, get icked out watching it.
no, not all erotic art is high art, and not all erotic art is meant to invoke deep intellectual discussion - but insisting that makes erotic art valueless, a disservice to intellectualism, or whatever else - does nothing but add fuel to a fire built on conservative ideology.

I don't wanna hear one more bitch saying that contacting your senators&reps doesn't work
Btw, this is FAR from getting rid of the land selloff from the BBB. Keep at it. Mike Lee specifically is notable because he's from Utah, the state that's pushed for that sell off very heavily for mining income.

skårsgard does one of my favorite acting things early in episode 6 “command feed” of murderbot, which I interpret as the mostly-held-in Big Ouch, That Hurt reaction, where the character only betrays the magnitude of the impact by: staying very still and half-blinking a bunch
that, to me, feels like an involuntary pain reaction
I think it’s really cool when actors do it.
and, more generally, it’s interesting to see how much he/the team is doing/choosing to externalize of the internal, in this adaptation of a very text-heavy story to a Very visual medium. especially to see the…space, I’ll say, between mere dialogue/description as rendered in the books (I often felt like I “couldn’t see” a lot aside from the action, but this is a reasonable and theme-carrying POV constraint in the books. and I thought book!Mensah was suuuper calm-cool-collected) and the maybe heightened? expressions in the TV series. I like it, and I like noticing and comparing the differences.

You're just a mammal. Let yourself act like it. Your brain needs enrichment. Your body needs rest. You feel hunger and grow hair. You need to pack bond with other sentient things so you don't become unsocialized and neurotic. You are biologically inclined to seek dopamine and become sick when chronically stressed. "Hedonism" is made up to place moral value on taking pleasure in sensory experiences. I am telling you that if you don't let yourself be a fucking mammal, as you were made, you will suffer and go insane. No grindset no diets no trying to be above your drive for connection. Pursue what makes you feel good and practice radial rejection of the constructs meant to turn you into a machine. You're a mammal.

It really is 2003 again Jesus Tapdancing Christ.
Like, all Republicans did was replace Iraq and gay people with Iran and trans people.

Where does one find orgies?
Either host one yourself or go on fetlife, Plura, etc to find hot queers in your area ready to bone down.
