SCREEN Act, which would have required mandatory age-verification for sites (like this) that allow "material harmful to minors" failed to pass out of committee after thousands and thousands of people called their Senators. More work ahead!

Everyone is so fucking stupid about gender despite being intimately impacted by its everyday violences

I think there is a good argument for the original Hiawathas with the Class A Atlantics (4-4-2) was the most beautiful train ever built. My personal favorite is slightly later version with the streamlined F7 Hudsons (4-6-4s, Baltics in Milwaukee terminology).

The SCREEN Act is not just another age-verification bill — it goes much further than anything passed at the state-level or in other countries. 1. The bill doesn't just target porn sites. It goes after *any* site that allows material "harmful" to minors. You'd have to scan your face to use Google.
