The ACLU has launched a petition against Mastercard’s policies on adult content!

Mastercard put into effect a new policy regulating adult content sellers that makes it extremely hard for sex workers to earn a living online. It must be stopped.

The policy itself imposes strict and invasive requirements on adult content websites using Mastercard’s financial services – including pre-approval of all content before publication, forbidding certain search terms, and monitoring the age and identity verification process for all performers.

Americans sign here!!

This, this, and this.

Christofascism is a failure of ideas, devoid of rational thought. It's an ideology of ignorance.

"One is often told that it is a very wrong thing to attack religion, because religion makes men virtuous. So I am told; I have not noticed it. That is the idea—that we should all be wicked if we did not hold to the Christian religion. It seems to me that the people who have held to it have been for the most part extremely wicked.

We find as we look around the world this curious fact, the more intense has been the religion of any period and the more profound has been the dogmatic belief, the greater has been the cruelty and the worse has been the state of affairs. Every single bit of progress in humane feeling, every improvement in the criminal law, every step towards the diminution of war, every step towards better treatment of the coloured races, or every mitigation of slavery, every moral progress that there has been in the world, has been consistently opposed by the organised Churches of the world.

I say quite deliberately that the Christian religion, as organised in its Churches, has been and still is the principal enemy of moral progress in the world. You may think that I am going too far when I say that that is still so. I do not think that I am."

— Bertrand Russell, Why I Am Not a Christian (1927)

🍎 Apples & potatoes

Apples produce a natural gas called ethylene, which has been shown to slow down potatoes sprouting process

🍓 Strawberries & ice

Strawberries are very porous and absorb liquid. Soak them in ice water and they will become plump again.

🫐 Blueberries

As blueberries ripen, so does their specific gravity. Therefore more ripe and more sweet blueberries will sink rather than float.

🍌 Banana & avocado

Bananas produce ethylene gas, which can help avocados ripen quicker

🥑 Avocado & water

Cold water keeps the avocado away from oxygen, which helps prevent them from browning.
