Said : "Stop saying 'DOGE' did this or that in your headlines. Say 'The GOP.' Say 'The Republicans'."
Of the 3 terms, the one most offensive to me is "GOP" because it means "Grand Old Party" and there is nothing grand about the Republican Party. We can say DOGE and Republicans in the same message.

Quote of the day, 28 March: St. Teresa of Avila
Always grieve over any fault, if it is publicly known, that you see in a Sister. Here love shows itself, and it is practiced well when you know how to suffer the fault and not be surprised so the others will do with respect to your faults, for you may have many more than you are aware of.
Recommend the Sister to God and strive yourself to practice with great perfection the virtue opposite the fault that appears in her. Make every effort to do this so that you teach that Sister in deed what perhaps through words or punishment she might not understand or profit by and the imitation of the virtue in which one sees another excel has a great tendency to spread.
This is good advice dont forget it.
Saint Teresa of Avila
The Way of Perfection, chap. 7, no. 7
Note: St. Teresa of Avila was born on 28 March 1515 in Avila, Spain, to Alonso Snchez de Cepeda and Beatriz Dvila y Ahumada. Her paternal grandfather, Juan Snchez de Toledo, was a conversoa Jew who had converted to Christianity and later did public penance under the Inquisition. Teresa never denied this ancestry and it deepened her awareness of Gods grace and her own humility.
Teresa of Avila, St. 1985, The Collected Works of St. Teresa of Avila, translated from the Spanish by Kavanaugh, K Rodriguez, O, , Washington DC.
Featured image:  by the Italian painter Guido Caprotti was executed in oil on canvas in the year 1938. It forms part of the Caprotti Collection in the Palacio Superunda, Avila. Image credit: 
Imitation of the virtue in which one sees another excel has a great tendency to spread.
On her birthday, St. Teresa offers a challenge: bear with others faults, and quietly model the opposite virtue. Charity grows not by correctingbut by imitating Christ.

What about Are there more acceptable alternatives
Two queries for you, fedi friends :blobfoxconfused:
1) Do any of those "erase your data from the " tools the YouTube creators are always advertising actually help I feel like the spam texts are getting oddly specific, and also I have talked my fair share of shit about the Cheeto-in-Charge online which is seeming more dangerous by the day
2) Also, I unfortunately used my real last name when I jumped on Mastodon. Is there any way to change screen name I know I looked awhile back and the answer seemed to be no but thought I'd ask again

Advice to my beloved and valued followers, and to those I follow:
Reading posts about politics and such isn't good for my health in any way.
If your thing is posting about politics, please content-warn with "uspol", and don't use "clever" synonyms for the perpetrators involved. Otherwise I might have to put you on my polytics list to keep it out of my timeline.
If all you post about is politics, that's why the Great Mastodon invented Mute and Unfollow buttons.
Peace out, children!
