Slowdown day

neil-gaiman:

staff:

Today’s the day. The day you help save the internet from being ruined.

Ready? 

Yes, you are, and we’re ready to help you.

(Long story short: The FCC is about to make a critical decision as to whether or not internet service providers have to treat all traffic equally. If they choose wrong, then the internet where anyone can start a website for any reason at all, the internet that’s been so momentous, funny, weird, and surprising—that internet could cease to exist. Here’s your chance to preserve a beautiful thing.)

PLEASE. 

Please do it. This one is important. You may not think YOU are important (you are, by the way) but if your representatives know that you care about how they vote, and if you call, and the person before you calls, and the person after you calls… then they vote to keep the internet the way it is. 

DOOOO ITTTTTTTT (said in the reassuring voice of the thing under your bed when you were tiny)

Twenty-two

Fierce Planet Posted on March 1, 2013 by jnfrMarch 1, 2013

Yes, the Violence Against Women Act passed, and only eighteen months late! Good that it did, but it’s important that we never forget the Senators who voted against it.

Excellent.

Grace under pressure

Fierce Planet Posted on November 21, 2011 by jnfrNovember 21, 2011
