So Tiny; Yet Robust And Strong.

I would like to get a law passed in my state, but I don’t know how. I think it was yesterday (today is November 12, 2024) Trump announced that he would need to scale back his economic plans which included no tax on tips and corporate tax cuts. I didn’t vote for Trump and I didn’t think he’d actually help his voters, however I believe it should be illegal for someone to make campaign promises they absolutely can’t fulfill.

I would like to make a law that makes it illegal for politicians to run on infeasible campaign policies and/or make it so that politicians have to run a feasibility study before making their campaign promises. Would this possible and if so, how would I go about doing it?

Reminder: the companies and political entities pushing Project 2025 have addresses and go out to lunch a lot and should never eat a spitless meal for the rest of their lives.

Practice bagpipes outside their secure compounds.

Follow them around ringing a bell wherever they go.

If they are going to be farcically evil, be Animaniacally good. Be the definition of chaotic justice.

Also, vote. It might just kick the ball down the road a bit, but that gives people more time to organize a concerted resistance (in no way on any social media platform) to the fascist creep happening in America. It is possible to take this country from the bastards who control it, it will take work, effort, and occasionally going offline and talking to humans though.

Cat activation sound

WUH-OH!

If you're reading this, that means you just got sniffed by a bat! Share and tag your friends to totally sniff them!

>"Because of their size, bats are notoriously difficult to find deceased from natural causes, and by the time they are found, the bodies have often already decomposed beyond value."

Sad, but true point to mention here: if one were to visit a wind-energy farm during bat migration season, one will find dead bats. Aeorestes cinereus in particular are all but doomed to be sacrificed on the altar of capitalism/the dollar, it seems...

Here's your yearly reminder NOT to purchase bat taxidermy products.

Because of their size, bats are notoriously difficult to find deceased from natural causes, and by the time they are found, the bodies have often already decomposed beyond value.

As sad as it is, it's true — As holidays approach, I know many people with an interest in these critters have the potential to receive gifts that are very unethical for the creatures they care about. Bats are killed for the sole purpose of displays like this as a soulless cash grab. Already, there are dozens of bat species that are threatened or endangered. It is not fair to them to support an industry that is actively trying to extinguish their life for decoration.
