It's unfortunately no longer enough to force websites to check your government-issued #ID before you can access certain content, because #politicians have now discovered that people are using Virtual Private Networks ( #VPNs ) to protect their #privacy and bypass these invasive laws.

These #politicians and their #poverty #porn posts of eating on "$6/person/day", when they have *clearly* never actually had to live on a tight #budget, let alone a #SNAP #FoodStamps budget.
Last night, I bought 12 chicken drumsticks for $0.99/lb, or $4.27 for 4.31 lbs (1.955 Kg) of drumsticks. That's enough meat for six adult portions, and the skin and bones make their own sauce while you cook them.
No one is walking away from my table #hungry or disappointed and dissatisfied.

It’s time to end the #partisan games #politicians are playing with our #votingrights. Tell #Congress to pass the Redistricting #Reform Act introduced by Rep. John Larson and Sen.

I Live 500 Feet From A Bitcoin Mine. My Life Is Hell.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m7_WDzPyoqU
We went to a small Texas town where one Bitcoin mining facility uses as much power as the entire city of Austin.
Everyone is town is affected by the constant noise from the crypto facility, even the animals.
One resident told us: "Every person here is sick.”
