#SCP #9kCon entry posted! scp-wiki.wikidot.com/9000contestx... It's a Daevite/Second Hythoth article. One of those ones where you have to do Horrible Things(TM) to contain it, but with a twist on that subgenre. Hope you enjoy!

If you're in Green County, Ohio, you'll have a levy on your November ballot to help continue funding the library. It is crucial to get "yes" here or else there will be tremendous cuts. Your state is failing libraries. www.daytondailynews.com/local/greene...

Nothing because astrology isn’t real and can we please not normalize it further in what should be left-leaning and pro-intellectual spaces?

His plan is clear at this point. He's going to manufacture the "leftist violence" that doesn't currently exist by attacking leftists and forcing them to defend themselves. He will then lie and say this self-defense was an attack and use it to justify further repression of leftist speech.

Interesting how "vote blue no matter who" only goes one way.

This is the moment of truth where American democracy lives or dies. If Republicans are able to keep from swearing in an incoming Democrat indefinitely, they'll do the same after the mid-terms, making it impossible to vote them out of power.

"More people die from neglect, suicide, and violence in U.S. prisons and jails each year than are executed in Saudi Arabia. This reflects a different kind of state failure, not formal execution, but institutional indifference incompetence and bad policy) that leads to thousands of deaths." - E-Chat

People didn't magically get less responsible in the last few decades. Even if there are things individuals could do to avoid loneliness, any difference between now and a few decades ago is obviously going to be environmental because environment is what's changing.

Nurglecon theory just never stops winning.

People really think a leftist wrote "if you see this you're gay" on a bullet casing. Do I need to remind you what left Twitter did to Lindsay Ellis when she used the word "squint?" No way in hell one of those people made a gay joke.

Chinese homophobia is so weird. You're not christians. You don’t like christianity. What the hell is the issue?

Boy it sure is interesting that Republicans get literally everything they want within months of obtaining power but back when Dems had it after 2020 literally nothing happened.

Extremely ominous that the regime is shifting to trapping people in the US rather than kicking them out.

I think I've come around on the "national divorce" thing. Red and Blue America clearly want to be two different countries with completely different economies, governments and cultures so we should just let them be separate and ensure everyone can easily live in whichever they prefer.

I think the American civic dream, where people with opposing political beliefs coexist in a democratic society, was always fundamentally flawed and unsustainable. If two people have values so different that they regard each other as evil, they cannot peacefully coexist.

BREAKING: Brian Mast just dropped the provision in his bill that would’ve let Marco Rubio revoke your passport. That’s a win for free speech, but the fact it was ever in there shows how far some politicians will go to silence dissent. I’ll fight to protect your voice.

It is with mixed feelings that I report that the article described here is being shelves because it became clear it would be too long. I switched to my back up idea which is a mere 12.4k words (Fourth have mercy).

My 9kCon entry will be a never-before-seen crossover.

Hey what if christian sexual mores didn't control every aspect of public life for everyone including non-believers? That'd be neat.

While it is a pleasant surprise to see Democrats do literally anything, proportionate retaliation is still less than we should be getting. Texas didn't add 5 R seats because 5 is their lucky number. They added as many R seats as possible. The correct reaction is to add as many D seats as possible.

FUCK THE US SUPREME COURT. FUCK THE UK SUPREME COURT Luckily I already wrote the poem.

Don't let the bigots pathologize us. Yes dysphoria kills. It sucks. Believe me, I know. But we are NOT our dysphoria and we are owed more than simply being trauma porn. We deserve gender affirming care because we're human beings and bodily autonomy is a human right.

I just posted a new SCP: scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-7851

Another attempt by the right to end the free and open internet because the public having access to factual information is an existential threat to conservatism. This will deny queer youth community in a way that will sometimes be fatal.

…reminded “Morality is doing right, no matter what you are told. Religion is doing what you are told, no matter what is right.” - H.L. Mencken

Dozens more pregnant and postpartum women have died in Texas hospitals since the state banned abortion, our analysis shows. As the maternal mortality rate dropped nationally, it rose in Texas by 33%.

23andMe declared bankruptcy and the company is gonna be sold off for parts. That includes your DNA information and the only amount of control you have is to delete your info immediately. It’s very simple to do. Gift link: wapo.st/4kUsBEF

LGBTQ asylum seeker ‘forcibly removed’ from US, sent to El Salvador

It’s not a fucking “trap.” These are people simply being labeled “dangerous” without any proof or due process. The lack of due process means they can do this to anyone, including American citizens because you could never prove you’re a fucking citizen. Gallego can eat my shit and hair

So what we see here is that shitlibs believe in deporting dissenters just as fervently as Republicans do. Only worse, because this guy is demanding positive evidence Khalil supported Harris and intends to err on the side of deportation if it's not clear either way.

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

PDCon will never be over in our hearts :) scp-wiki.wikidot.com/cursed-ambro...

Now is an excellent time to start keeping a diary or journal. We’ve seen first hand how easily information can get scrubbed from the internet. Don’t rely on your socials to tell your story. Document atrocities. Share moments of hope. Make sure future generations know how we fell into fascism.

if, ten years ago, your entire understanding of politics was that the right wing wanted to destroy everything because they were evil, you had a more accurate and more predictive analysis than functionally the entire American media and political apparatus

Free speech no longer exists in America. We’ve got University students being disappeared due to their political views. Today a French scientist was denied entry & had his computer confiscated for criticizing Trump. You know who else didn’t allow criticism of their regime? The Nazis.

Read this declaration. A professional soccer player has been imprisoned in El Salvador and forced into hard labor on the basis of soccer-related tattoos and a single, innocent hand gesture. This is why the administration is withholding due process. It knows its targets could prove their innocence.

Seeing a lot of people speak as if it's possible to overthrow the US government if Trump does enough damage to American democracy to stay in power perpetually. It is not. If that happens, all is lost. The US gov could put down any rebellion and win a war against the rest of the world combined.

I rarely tell people to throw their devices into the sea, but you should throw your Amazon Echo into the sea. www.wired.com/story/everyt...

Interesting to see that, to Republicans, "Send them back" actually means "Send them to a concentration camp in El Salvador."

A US-born citizen was walking near Chicago in January. ICE snatched him off the street, handcuffed him, threw into a van. His wallet, which contained his ID, was confiscated. He was detained for 10 hours before being released without a record of what occurred. immigrantjustice.org/sites/defaul...

We don't know who these people are. Fuck knows if they're undocumented. Fuck knows if they're even immigrants. They were born in NM for all anyone knows, because no one knows who they are.

there is an actual conversation to be had about the way power dynamics in teacher child relationships and parent child relationships encourages and defends abuse especially of marginalized children and it's kind of depressing watching everyone flatten that out to dunk on some obvious bait

Trump and RFK want to kill as many people as possible. MAGA is a death cult.

Republicans worship Nurgle. I am completely certain of that now. Nurglecon theory just explains too much to be false.

Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away. They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

I am begging blue state governors to have lunch this week with your adjutant general of the National Guard. Cannot stress enough how important this relationship is going to be in the near future.
