5 days ago Lindsey Graham introduced a resolution to take CFPB payday loan rules out at the knees. The proposed resolution will make it easier for predatory lenders to trap consumers in debt. Call your senator and tell them to #StopTheDebtTrap. #ENDPREDATORYLENDING
They call it medium because the posts are neither rare not well-done
@maloki i like this toot. I work in a place where Facebook is the primary means of communication.. cell service can be unreliable, folks don’t use email, they’ve probably only heard about twitter or Instagram in the news, but Facebook provides communication, info on events, a place to coordination sales or trades, etc! I wonder if geographic Mastadon instances could work..!
@borcalos cool experiment. Very season 1 black mirror!
