The generational wealth argument was making sure granny’s house didn’t get sold, then using that equity to help the children get homes of their own. It’s not becoming an AirBnB hoarding, gentrifying, rent sucking, living off of people, vampire, real estate bro.
Yall talking about generational wealth and wanting black people to have wealth but one of the ways to do that is real estate.. then yall spew nonsense like this. Lmaoooooo the world is not real
Atlantas police budget is a third of the general fund. A whole third. And that’s just the municipal police. It’s also the most surveilled per capita.
Just like adding more lanes don’t actually fix traffic, adding police don’t fix ‘violence’
Backstory: I pre-ordered the 25k before I went to the bank. They verified my account & ensured me that I could pick it up upon arrival. I guess they didn’t realize I was a woman of color. I’m not a victim or a “pick me,” & I hate people that always blame their race on shit. So if I’m saying I genuinely was racially profiled, that’s what it was. Because I plan on taking this to the furthest extent, I will not speak any further on this matter. My account is still frozen. Nothing in my account is fraudulent. I work very hard for my money. This is humiliating & LOW.
Sure is a lot of “Obsession’s Art director should keep her trap shut about long hours/poor conditions and be grateful for the low rate she got” talk today from WGA/SAG members I marched on a picket line for 🤔

YOU can mitigate that by showing up for your friends/fam.
A key distinction in how NYU Langone and Mount Sinai are handling this. NYU posting about a subpoena shortly after receiving it made it possible for patients to challenge it. Mount Sinai is telling patients they're complying with a subpoena they won't publicly acknowledge exists.
y’all should care as much about black people in memphis being poisoned by 3 data centers air, water, and noise pollution as you do the prospect of losing a zoo and the animals to such
SUPPORT THE CITIZENS OF MEMPHIS, WEST MEMPHIS SOUTHAVEN AND NASHVILLE!!!! REJECT AI!!!!
Cigarette manufacturers have repeatedly told us and presented evidence to us that cigarettes are safe, so there is no problem widely marketing them to the public and not regulating second hand smoke.
It's much faster and easier to have the girls lick their paintbrushes when painting the radium dials so they can get the detail work right in the watches, so make sure to instruct them to do so. We have not done any testing to determine this is safe, but no one told us we needed to, so it should be fine.
Putting in regulations before setting up the steamship factories is cumbersome and unattractive to our investors, so we accept that boilers may periodically explode in close proximity to workers.
As long as we dump our unmitigated toxic waste in poor and working-class neighborhoods like Love Canal and Cancer Alley, the country at large will not have a problem with our waste disposal methods.

This is a post about data centers.
A lot of Black people have tried to own Beauty supply businesses in their communities, but the Koreans have that industry locked down, and were only selling to Koreans. They wouldn't seel to Black people. So this Black woman in LA started getting her supplies from India.
Just learned:
Software engineers used to do manual data labeling at Scale AI while Alex Wang was CEO. After he left, new leadership joined, and were HORRIFIED to learn this. Stopped it ASAP
Now at Meta, software engineers are assigned manual data labeling... see the pattern?
