#BlackCoSo Plz promote this epi of NPR's politics podcast. The lead story is Louisiana GOP state pols trying to alter the definition of Black as counted by the Census in order to undercut voter protections for the LA Black electorate our people need to be aware of this because it has nationwide implications https://pca.st/episode/b0e08024-8177-40b8-ad5f-19dc90b08dbc
@DarksideStraxus Crenshaw was going that route on the evening news

CoSo turned out to be something I never expected. I came for the politics and found a whole world of people liking the same things as me. I hardly ever post politics now and have made friends who have introduced me to new art, music, photography, and so much more. It’s an addiction!

@th3j35t3r Exactly! That's a major reason WHY I feel safe here. Your past experience in those things is good. You know about that stuff and can better protect us against it.
Also, they seem to not notice that CS has been around 5 years already. Seems stable and protected to me if it's going fine after all this time still.
People love to hate on good things. We are out there though, spreading the positives about CS to counteract the haters lies.👍

@th3j35t3r Don’t be cruel….even if they fools
@th3j35t3r I followed him on Twitter, even with his propensity for extreme hyperbole, but told him on Twitter that I love me some #CoSo AND Jester

Watching people post #twitter screenshots here is like being on a date with someone who won't stop talking about their ex.

Dropping in for just a minute.
Wanted to show CoSo to my guests.
We ate too much. Now into the pissing and moaning at the VA part of the evening....But that will pass, and old stories will start to come out.
Listening to loud late '60s, early '70 rock & roll.

I don't care too much for Twitter,
Twitter can buy me love,
Can't buy me love,
Counter Social tells me so.
Can't buy me love
No, no, no, no!
Apologies to Lennon and McCartney

We don't even have time to bury the dead at ClubQ and we are on to our next mass shooting. It's the guns. And until we summon up the courage to take on the gun lobby and throw out the politicians who do their bidding, nothing will change.

Cops re: mass shooting in Virginia say “ no more than 10 dead”. I’m not comforted by this language as we are becoming numb to the number of folks killed in mass shootings. #guncontrol

Fellas, were you aware that it's perfectly OK to say, "I don't know enough about this to have a useful opinion"?

@earthling_down_under Just can’t consider such sentient creatures as food. Horses, dolphins, elephants, dogs, octopus and certain squid….just not for me.
