Ready to break up with Google?

So are we!

We’ve rounded up a bunch of privacy-centric alternatives for everything Google.

Check out the full list over on the blog!

eleven year olds need book series filled to the brim with violence and crime. it's like enrichment for them

hi, a lot of you need a perspective reset

the average human lifespan globally is 70+ years

taking the threshold of adulthood as 18, you are likely to spend at least 52 years as a fully grown adult

at the age of 30 you have lived less than one quarter of your adult life (12/52 years)

'middle age' is typically considered to be between 45-65

it is extremely common to switch careers, start new relationships, emigrate, go to college for the first or second time, or make other life-changing decisions in middle age

it's wild that I even have to spell it out, but older adults (60+) still have social lives and hobbies and interests.

you can still date when you get old. you can still fuck. you can still learn new skills, be fashionable, be competitive. you can still gossip, you can still travel, you can still read. you can still transition. you can still come out.

young doesn't mean peaked. you're inexperienced in your 20s! you're still learning and practicing! you're developing social skills and muscle memory that will last decades!

there are a million things to do in the world, and they don't vanish overnight because an imaginary number gets too big

Also if you would like an example of how the current administration is fascist according to your definition, here. As mentioned (somewhat briefly) in my original reblog, Trump and ICE under him has been revoking the rights to a fair trial to illegal immigrants and immigrants in general, despite judges’ orders and that right being for every person per the constitution.

Additionally, the White House and other government organizations (eg NASA) have been taking down webpages across their webpages. For example, on the official White House page the Constitution itself was not available for a long period and pages about women’s and POC’s historic contributions to NASA, an important part of history set aside in a webpage to make it easier to access and learn about as these contributions were and are often ignored, have been taken off of the website. Libraries are being threatened to be shut down for being a “waste of money and space” despite proving an essential service as a free space for all to have access to education, reading, amenities such as printing or watching movies, or even just as a space for teens to hang out without paying or being in danger.

I feel the merging of corporations and state is obvious in present America with lobbyist groups pouring money into politicians and the richest man in the world (who quite literally has done the nazi salute and reposted and retweeted neonazi rhetoric) funding and standing as the right hand to our president and his lackies. I will be honest though, while I agree with this part of the definition, I feel a bit confused on where you got it from. I would genuinely love to learn more about this part and any merging of corporations and state that may have happened within Germany or Italy during That Time.

You want to call your House rep now and tell them Trump needs to be impeached immediately for defying a Supreme Court order (re: Kilmar Abrego Garcia), which functionally voids our constitution and means no one in America has rights anymore.

I am not exaggerating.

As of now, anybody can be disappeared, no due process, no recourse. Trump is openly disregarding a Supreme Court order and says he’ll send US citizens to El Salvador.

This is not a drill.

Call your House rep and tell them they must impeach. Tell them if they cannot bring themselves to impeach, they must resign. A more open and shut case to impeach is not possible. Trump and his administration are saying openly, in public, that anybody can be kidnapped by ICE, even in error, and disappeared permanently.

Call your senators, too, and tell them to support impeachment (it goes to them once it passes a majority House vote).
