At the same time as the agency is rolling back its power plant standards, it’s launching a new study that would test the country’s water supply for abortion medication, contraception, and hormones used in gender-affirming care, along with over 1,000 other medications and chemicals.
The EPA would rather monitor abortion pills in water than pollution
The agency is easing climate rules for power plants while testing water for mifepristone.

I watched this and kind of loved it— definitely a movie that will rub a lot of ppl the wrong way, but Ferrara cuts right to the truth about addiction
My so far favorite of Abel’s Awfuls. Migrainemorph handheld scuzz and needles jabbed beneath your toenails, truly kind’ve monstrous in its collection of loser perverts and sniveling cowards. Desperately, pitifully, and slobberingly humping the leg of the videotape and early digital zeitgeist.
lol go ahead and report me to HR, I don’t even work here
There was probably at least one guy who managed to have sex with a flapper and also go to a Depeche Mode show

9/ I had launch with Paulina Borsook last month in Oakland. Her life is hard, but she still has a lot to say! She's trying to raise funds to get a new version of the book reissued on the Internet Archive. Some of her friends have a running GoFundMe to support her: www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...

8/ Unfortunately, “Cyberselfish“ predicted the future but did not sell well. Borsook's writing career hit the rocks as tech fortunes skyrocketed astronomically in the 2000s. She is now elderly, disabled and struggling to survive as the rest of the world finds out what she knew a long time ago.
3/ Tech fascism in a nutshell: “Computers are so much more rule-based, controllable, fixable, and comprehensible than any human will ever be. As many political schools of thought do, these technolibertarians make a philosophy out of a personality defect.“ She wrote this in 2000!
1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it). But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that
