Love her cover of this Beatles classic. Across The Universe is great btw and is full of Beatles songs.

As the DeSantis regime eviscerates freedom of speech in Florida's university system, timid journalists use the anodyne word "conservative" to describe him and his apparatchiks. Refusing to call the extremists what they truly are is poor journalism. https://www.heraldtribune.com/story/news/politics/2023/01/06/gov-ron-desantis-wants-conservative-overhaul-at-new-college-of-florida/69784941007/

Matt Gaetz, who is under investigation for sex trafficking, just nominated Jim Jordan, who is accused of covering up sexual abuse, for Speaker of the House.
This is the Republican Party.

NEW: A 6-year-old student shot a teacher during an altercation at a Virginia elementary school today. No students were physically wounded at Richneck Elementary School, but according to the police chief, “This was not an accidental shooting.” https://www.cbsnews.com/live-updates/richneck-elementary-school-shooting-newport-news-virginia/

This is comical, but as I keep saying, it's also incredibly dangerous. A small radical minority is demanding near-total power over the US gov't & economy.

Here are some of the concessions and promises that have been agreed to over the course of the Speaker negotiations with McCarthy. There were so many, I had to create a word document.
We are so screwed, nothing is going to get done. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1611500813456637952

Exactly what's happening in the House right now, at a broader scale: a tiny radical minority dictating the policies & choices of the majority.
I worry the midterm victories have people on the left overly sanguine. The reactionary takeover is still very much in progress.

This is, in general, all kinds of hilarious. But, perhaps it's what happens when you just stop paying law firms who had been working for you previously. https://www.reuters.com/legal/elon-musk-says-twitter-staff-error-led-hiring-perkins-coie-law-firm-2023-01-06/

I have become anecdotally aware of several (smaller) mastodon instances that are considering shutting down because they cannot afford their server bills.
If you are a #mastodonadmin of an instance that is 1000+ users and considering shutting down please reach out to me.
We may be willing to take over your instance and save your users if you are compliant with the Mastodon Server Covenenant (https://joinmastodon.org/covenant)
@liquor_american @w7voa yes. it's driving dem bashers to distraction. Glenn Greenwald checked in with this "dems are too united take"
@liquor_american @w7voa major respect. any surgery is a serious matter. he would have been fully justified in taking the whole day off.
