    Did they make those laws based on the one in a million?

    (I just mean like when that nerd high schooler gets an advanced college degree and they go on the news for it every year or few - like presumably that kid’s parents would know whether they could marry a 20 year-old or whether the older partner should be castrated)




  • Well after just posting this in the other direction, what about when we’re in public and we tell the cop we’re only stumbling because we left the bar crying after our kids died or something like that… Or we’ve just stripped nude to hump a street post

    OK, should this be all about “public interest”?! Lawyer people talk about that standard. We have a public interest in boy bands, not in John Doe Mental Break. You can’t just request footage for the fun of it? Unless like there was a pattern of people stumbling or nudiestreaking in your community that was not being addressed




  • Risk: alienation of allies who need a break

    Eventual potential outcome: creation of new space with strong prohibition on political content

    anecdote etc

    Last year I saw a tenacious activist get booted from a large group chat for discussing humanitarian crises. It is more than likely that the vast majority of the people in the group shared the opinion of the activist. It came to mind, though a person who Worked at an NGO all day and all week, and wanted to come to the group chat on the weekend to Find out about live music, and they were forced to relive the horrors of their work week. Limiting their ability to recharge. Impacting Their work performance. Impacting lives of those it’s their job to help.

    There’s also a world where no one ever wants to talk about anything difficult ever, I know.

    I want to be aware of Of every individual walking the planet And be considerate Wherever the heart demands, and there are very strong Factors Which make it easy to pose a cost-benefit analysis To undermine my point. So I write without prescription here, food for thought
