Just another drop of water in this hellsite

you understand that if we let youtube do this that forms a dangerous precedent of every website and company wanting to ask for our government ID, right? that this isn't for the safety of the children? that they're censoring queer content (at the very least, and probably lots of other liberal topics) and when we give them our identifying information to regain access to that, they'll keep that? they're already selling our watch histories to the highest bidder. if you're watching anything liberal you don't want that to be tracked to your fucking ID with the political climate we have right now. if we let this happen it will keep getting worse and more restrictive and we will have less and less privacy.

people keep saying it's pointless since the people who care is such a small portion but that's. you realize saying that, and refusing to do anything is just making you easier to steamroll over, right? who cares if you're the minority. be a loud minority. stop giving them power over you. don't just lay down and take it. don't ghost them for a day and then go right back.

stand your fucking ground.

there's so much bullshit in the world that yeah this feels like a stupid hill for me to be dying on but christ this is the issue that my crippled ass is capable of confronting. and if i can't start with this that says bad things about my ability to eventually face the more terrifying, more exhausting issues. but we aren't going to get fucking anywhere if we can't do something as simple as this.

i know youtube brings comfort but there are other ways to get that. build into your local community. go to farmers markets and queer support groups and library events and knitting or gaming meetups. find the people in your immediate world and find out how to support them. talk to your neighbors about your hopes and fears. compliment the tired cashier.

Many some schools use an opt-out system when it comes to their health insurance. If you do not want to be covered by their health insurance, CHECK YOUR EMAIL AND MAKE SURE TO OPT OUT or they will sign you up automatically
