May 10th is the anniversary of the Santa Clara County v. Southern Pacific Railroad Company Supreme Court decision of 1886. The case first established under the 14th Amendment that corporations are considered “persons.” The 14th Amendment granted citizenship to all persons born or naturalized in the U.S, included former enslaved human beings, and provided all citizens with “equal protection” and other rights under the law. It was not intended to apply to corporations.
The Supreme Court granted corporations other constitutional rights since then, including the 4th Amendment search and seizure rights, 5th Amendment takings rights and 1st Amendment free speech rights to spend money corrupting politics. The 2010 Citizens United decision expanded corporate 1st Amendment free speech rights.
It’s a common belief that the corporations first acquired corporate constitutional rights (“corporate personhood”) in the Citizen United decision. They did not. Corporate power to hijack democracy precedes Citizens United and corporate spending money in elections by nearly a century. 
Armed with constitutional rights, corporations have “railroaded” people, communities and elected officials  – overturning democratically-passed laws ensuring safe food and products, protecting workers and workplaces, and ensuring a livable world – in ways that have nothing to do with Citizens United or corporate “free speech” rights. 
Ending ALL corporate constitutional rights – not just overturning Citizens United and corporate “free speech” rights – is what makes Move to Amend unique. It is why we call for enactment of the We the People Amendment. And it is why May 10 is such a very important date.

21 and 39!
Thank you!!!
21. Can you accurately predict how long your fics are going to be? If you can, what's your secret?
Unless I have a word limit like for 1u I have never once in my life accurately predicted how long my fic will be. Every time I'm like this will be 2k :) it is 6k. Every time I'm like this will be 15k :) it is 7-8k. I DON'T know
39. Wildest AU scenario you have written?
Gosh I feel like I don't really write very wild AUs, I feel like it's all WWII or Urban Fantasy. Other-other Dallas was weird as hell and more speculative than fantasy in a way that was a lot of fun to do and no one ever asked me about it but the suggestion of Roope being some kind of godking-reality manipulator was intentional. I would love to write more sci-fi shit. I love urban fantasy so much but I feel like I'm neglecting aliens a little.
Thank you so much!!
#i had like. god i don't even know a 2k outline of a sci fi/dystopia au with nick suzuki/jason robertson based on the asg#but i didn't really know enough about either of them at the time to really make it sing#but everything i draft eventually gets recycled in some form so hopefully it makes an appearance someday bc it was pretty sick#as an au. like every team was from a planet and there were these like various companies controlling the planets and nick comes from#smaller hyper-religious planet that has kind of skated by while being most renowned for arts and education#and nick goes to the asg and he meets robo who comes from a huge planet that's like heavily entrenched in tech and energy-generating#companies and nick's been kind of sheltered so he didn't realize that the asg tends to be a lot of networking (and sex.) for#various revolutionary activities. like he knew a little but he didn't realize that everyone goes to the asg with an agenda#BUT that didn't really strike me as the kind of approach nick suzuki specifically would take to the asg#particularly coming from an orig 6 team. and not to get into it but we all know orig 6 franchises have a certain. uh. privileges#that the southern markets don't. and the reality of the teams wasn't matching how the story was developing and i didn't have a good#handle on robo at the time AT ALL either so i just kinda gave up#idk. i liked it but outside of the world-building it wasn't coming together but i'm sure parts of it get recycled eventually!#cage replies#sorrellegiance

In the same month, Republicans destroy the railway stations at Ballybunion and Listowel. The…

It's been a couple of weeks since I watched The Perfect Game, but I'm still reeling from the fact that one of the best Catholic priest portrayals I've ever seen onscreen was played by Cheech Marin.
Can't wrap my head around it. Actual Cheech (of 'and Chong' fame) playing a kindly, lovable, devout Catholic priest who serves as mentor and friend and role model to this team of baseball-playing boys who take their faith seriously. He blesses the boys before every game. Teaches them doctrine while still encouraging their love of baseball. The faith is just part of their very human lives. I didn't think we could see it on-screen and especially never would have expected that casting.

Audio Drama Sunday, as you do
The Supernatural Protection Company – Back in April I had an idea similar to this after working at the call center for the El Paso Water Company, I outlined a few episodes and did some research, but it fell apart because that sort of writing isn’t my strong point, and my brain is like a toaster. Looking back now after listening to a few episodes of the show, I’m glad I didn’t try and go forward with my version idea because Saph the Something did an amazing, amazing job creating this show and did a far, far better job than anything I could have created. I’m envious but more I’m delighted that someone else had this idea and went forward with it in such a delightful way. I cannot express how much you all should listen to this.
Badlands Cola – half Jessica Jones’ dark, dry humor, half Lovecraftian-style occult detective with the slow burn strangeness of Silt Verses and True Detective, Badlands Cola is a rising star in the audio drama community and for good reason. The story telling is 200 proof, the dialogue is strong, believable, and engaging, and the setting is just familiar enough to feel like it could be happening next door. Badlands Cola is a fun listen, a very fun listen, so fun that I needed to listen to it twice because I was convinced that I missed something secret detail or hidden message. I have to wonder, then, does that mean I’m being targeted by this cult?
Wireland Ranch – Surrealist writing, savagely anti-capitalist humor, and an all too real sense of what the fuck is about to happen oh my god it’s happening oh god it’s happening, Wireland Ranch is as southern gothic as southern gothic can get. It’s so “what the fuck?” and moves so fast that you as the listener have no choice but to think “okay so that’s a thing” and go with it. It’s an acid trip in the best possible way, if Lovecraft weren’t a racist nonce, he might be able to come up with something this surreal and uneasy. I cannot recommend this one enough, I have no idea what’s really going on, but you know what, I don’t need to know what the hell is happening to me as I listen.
