Alabama jails woman for endangering her fetus. She wasn't pregnant. [Reason. CW: Libertarian cooties]

When the onset of the pandemic led to a massive increase in demand for hand sanitizer this spring, many distilleries stepped up to alleviate the sudden shortage. Now the FDA has declared hand sanitizer an “over-the-counter drug” and is charging the companies a fee based on that. [Reason; CW: libertarian cooties]

Your War on Some Drugs in Action [Radley Balko/Twitter Thread Reader]

It is remarkable how much the Republicans and the alt.Reich (insofar as there is a difference) accuse their enemies of what they themselves do or want to do. (Google “manafort cuck” if you have a strong stomach.) Once the Republicans accused the Democrats of wanting to ban hamburgers, we could expect them to try to ban veggie burgers [Reason: CW: libertarian cooties]

Thanx to RAW Illumination.

The state of Georgia doesn’t want you to see its laws and court decisions unless you pay. The Science-Industrial Complex doesn’t want you to see the scientific work on SciHub unless you pay. Copyright is supposed to increase learning.

Thanx to Slate Star Codex, which notes, "It sure would be bad if this kind of lawsuit led to a Streisand effect that made even more people aware that sci-hub exists and is a website with almost all academic papers on it available unpaywalled for free."

I don’t have numbers on this, but it seems that the more criminal an administration is, the more it cracks down on sexndope. The Trump Mob is trying to bring back the worst of the War on Some Drugs, and now we are going to be protected from teen sexting,

Thanx to
