@sa_rrrahhh If you're willing to not have a job an an archivist for several years and make shit pay, go for it. The library job market is not great in much of the country. Especially for special collections jobs.
Hey y’all! We’re putting on a fundraiser for an anarchist prisoner who is about to be released and will go home soon.
Due to how expensive re-entry is and his severe injury from working in prison, we are putting on this fundraiser to help him take care of his basic needs.
NEW: A lawyer is seeking the names of every donor to nine Texas abortion funds.

Showing once again that changing the name of your plantation and having it run by Nigerians doesn't make it less of a plantation. Arguably the worst unit I've ever visited, with Clemens and Ramsey not far behind.
So #DirtyDarrington AKA Memorial (to slavery) Unit in #TDCJ has been on lockdown for weeks and had multiple shakedowns but according to multiple reports, yesterday the guards helped someone murder (or attempt to) a 21 year old. This is a plantation unit south of Houston.

@abbyhonold I lost a lot of friends for not letting it go when I was raped and abused. People still hold it against me 13 years later. When I see all the outrage I mostly think that a lot people are being insincere if they don't think they'd be Mila if he was their loved one. 🤷♀️
G/O Media bosses just replaced four expert Spanish translators—with a combined 25 years of experience at the company—with a fucking robot (that’s already doing a shitty job). Read this thread. We cannot allow this to be the future.
Update on these "drug induced murders" due to "tainted mail" in TDCJ from Polunsky, where all mail has been digital for over a month. Funny how the state's logic never reflects reality. The first sentence is because I disappeared for 2 weeks w covid, FTR. Unrelated to the rest.
