If it feels like you’re fighting battles on every side, you’re not alone. The struggle is terrifyingly real. But we can still make this year the best possible version of 2018 it can be. There’s a new opportunity to restore strong net neutrality protections: The Congressional Review Act.
What is the Congressional Review Act?
The CRA lets the House and Senate repeal administrative laws—rules and regulations set by governmental agencies—with a simple majority in both houses. The resolutions can’t be blocked by leadership, amended, or filibustered.
This congress has used the CRA more than any other to overturn regulations that protect vulnerable people and the environment, but this time we can use it for a good purpose—to reverse the FCC’s decision and restore net neutrality.
We just need #OneMoreVote
Battle For The Net has secured commitments from 50 senators. One more and we can take this fight to the House. These are the targets:
John Kennedy (Louisiana) | 202-224-4623 | Email
John McCain (Arizona) | 202-224-2235 | Email
Orrin Hatch (Utah) | 202-224-5251 | Email
Dean Heller (Nevada) | 202-224-6244 | Email
If you live in these states, we need you. Even if you don’t, you can still help the cause.
Tell them to support the “Resolution of Disapproval” and overturn the FCC’s December 14 “Restoring Internet Freedom” vote.
So, I’m on a TMNT binge rn and You know how the turtles’ adventures start as them dealing with the surface and dealing with humans, then it’s the shredder and other mutants, then it’s other dimensions and space and then time travel, just always eventually creeping into going off the rails batshit?
Basically:
Neutering your pet is a surgery not an injection.
Most male animals have nipples
Dogs and cats have more that one pair
Ringworm is a fungus, not a type of worm
Topical flea products are not to be given orally.
Staff work late nights and weekends because they get paid better rates. Not because they like those hours.
There are lots and lots of pets with the same name as yours.
There aren’t a lot of effective taste deterrents for a dog that really likes to eat it’s own poop
Whether or not the nose is wet, dry, warm or cold, it means nothing. Really nothing.
Being female does not automatically make me a nurse. I’m the vet.

I love these moments when Donatello is trying to be a grumpy emotionally unavailable boi, yet he can’t help but smile because he loves his brothers so much.
HEY FUN FACT: Did you know that Red-Eared Sliders have this fun behavior called “fluttering” in which they rapidly shake their claws at another turtle? It’s usually either a mating behavior or a show of dominance.
It reminds me a lot of stimming! So I like to think that Leo stims :)
