There are people I love. There are people who love me. I fight for what I believe, protect those I could, and stand my ground against the encroaching darkness.

Steven Saus@midwest.socialto politics @lemmy.world•In Most States, Undocumented Immigrants Pay Higher Tax Rates Than Top 1%.English3·10 months agoYou are completely correct; what it’s doing is not presenting new ideas so much as pushing back against the narrative of the freeloading immigrant, which is only supported by cherry-picking what taxes “count” as taxes and ignoring the regressive taxes that you, appropriately, note that most people don’t think of when they say “taxes”.
Steven Saus@midwest.socialto politics @lemmy.world•Catholic group sues to block Michigan's conversion therapy banEnglish32·11 months agoDoesn’t really matter if it’s Catholic teaching or not if you’re not Catholic.
Steven Saus@midwest.socialto politics @lemmy.world•Manchin considering rejoining Democratic Party to challenge HarrisEnglish15·11 months agoWV native here. He and his family (see his daughter’s involvement in EpiPen pricing) have enriched themselves by swindling those who have less than themselves. He’s a Republican dressed up as a Democrat so he could run in WV.
Steven Saus@midwest.socialto politics @lemmy.world•The GOP's proposed national platform is extremely transphobicEnglish531·11 months agoYou are making a false equivalency between “being Christian” and “being a bigot”. While there is a high correlation, particularly with some denominations of Christianity, they are not synonymous. (Heck, I’ve seen some religious groups at my local Pride celebrations for years.)
Presumably you’re aware of this.
Steven Saus@midwest.socialto News@lemmy.world•Families urge judge to block law forcing display of ‘Protestant version of the Ten Commandments’ before kids return to public school in LouisianaEnglish44·11 months agoWell, sure, if they weren’t misrepresenting their motives. The real motive is indoctrination and the incorporation of a specific flavor of Christianity into all aspects of USAian society, transforming it into a theocracy. They’re not particularly subtle about this. :)
Steven Saus@midwest.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•US lawmakers vote 50-0 to force sale of TikTok despite angry calls from usersEnglish2016·1 year agoUnlike? I think you mean they’re JEALOUS of TikTok’s appeal to minors…
Steven Saus@midwest.socialto News@lemmy.world•Tennessee GOP votes to keep Confederate flags in classrooms but ban pride flagsEnglish1·1 year agoRight, but that’s what the language of the bill is intended to silence.
Steven Saus@midwest.socialto politics @lemmy.world•Missouri Bill Makes Teachers Sex Offenders If They Accept Trans Kids' PronounsEnglish19·1 year agoThey’re getting two birds with one stone.
Steven Saus@midwest.socialto News@lemmy.world•Tennessee GOP votes to keep Confederate flags in classrooms but ban pride flagsEnglish1·1 year agoDude, I mean high school clubs advertising to other high school students, like this one: https://www.coolidgeshs.org/ourpages/auto/2023/5/3/45488112/image _2_.jpg
Steven Saus@midwest.socialto News@lemmy.world•Tennessee GOP votes to keep Confederate flags in classrooms but ban pride flagsEnglish16·1 year agoThe effect would be felt by both LGBTQIA+ clubs and GSA’s in the schools, at a bare minimum. They would be unable to utilize the pride flag, for example, in any kind of advertisement, logo, banner, etc.
You could try using a relay somewhere in your process; while I was on a travel gig I had to do some finicky work with a travel router (though this may not work, since you need a VPN for your work, but maybe it’ll give you an idea: https://ideatrash.net/2022/05/howto-secure-and-share-your-internet-on-free-wireless-wifi.html
Also if you have your DNS resolvers manually put in, you may not encounter their portal. Had that problem when on hotel wifi as well.
All that said, I ended up using phone data a lot.
