@xsssm@selfy.army alas. here i am more used to the dems only doing mediocre to bad things and lamenting how impossible it is to do good things. tho last year they a bill that was talked up as protecting gay marriage federally but actually 1. barely did anything for that 2. will very obviously readily be thrown out by the courts 3. created new "religious freedom" rights to discriminate against gay relationships 4. was explicitly written to be severable so when #2 happens #3 stays :/

they were so proud of themselves for that one

@xsssm@selfy.army also into the hell of politicians proposing superficially good-sounding but ultimately toothless bills to make themselves look good at minimal political cost or difficulty

world politics and media 

at some point i should actually figure out what página12's editorial stance is regarding the war between Russia and Ukraine.

it is somewhat hard to tell from their coverage that i have read, since it has mostly taken the form of "[official] [of country] said [claim]", possibly juxtaposed with "[official] [of other country] said [conflicting claim]", without any explicit indication of whether they credit either claim.

tho i did notice them specifying that Crimea is a Ukrainian peninsula («en el norte de la península ucraniana de Crimea, anexionada por Rusia en 2014.») in one thing i read today.

@aescling unfort it probably will not in fact get to evolve (barring eventual dex completion concerns). i’m down to one non-bug slot (currently zigzagoon for pickup and eventually head butting trees) and will catch a ledyba in the morning.

p.s. @aescling in a fangame i am playing i'm doing a bug-catcher run but currently i only have spinarak for bugs so i have an espurr in my party and i named them after you (they unfortunately will not have yr fave color scheme if they ever evolve tho)

@aescling i don't actually know what you meant by "here"

@aescling it is unethical to tf vegans into obligate carnivores
