In the section about registering new citizens to vote, that is not a new law that NGO’s may not register voters at naturalization ceremonies, but a new policy written by USCIS as shown in the link. Nothing like government departments going out of their way to make things more difficult than they need to be.
Just a reminder that when terrible things are going on on a political level as they were last week, ordinary frustrations and challenges in our lives will feel much worse. I had a technology week from hell
and my anxiety was off the charts despite the fact that no actual harm was being done. I know that if we weren’t seeing that we are already living in a wannabe autocracy I would have coped much more effectively.
I'm glad your teeth are better, Ariella. As for disagreement, I believe it depends on how it's done. If people are respectful it shouldn't be a problem. It's the ones who accuse you (not you personally) of being stupid who ruin the discussions. People need to develop the skill to disagree without blame and name-calling. It would make a huge difference to the world in general.

Thanks for pointing out that gerrymandering can backfire. Hope it does in the midterms!
