Iā€™m deleting the Google Maps app on my IPhone right after posting this. Companies that needlessly try to placate a nationalistic autocrat wannabe should suffer consequences. I can only do my small part as a consumer.

I don't want to spend my life chasing money.
I want to chase ideas.
I want to follow questions of expression to see where they lead.

I only need money to placate my overlords, I need my art to live.

The NCAA built a transgender student-athlete policy in 2011.

They killed it in 2025 to placate the professional transphobes selling legalized discrimination
