The issue is here when things get to burning, Black people are blamed and the specter of Black violence doesn't stir the same revolutionary fervor for the public the way the French protests seem to inspire.

Literally passed laws that made it okay for people to hit protesters with their cars. That was the response.

It's wild to watch cause people are acting as if we're not living through the reaction to the Floyd protests. They're passing more laws to continue targeting protesters right now! They're charging protesters with domestic terrorism right now! This is because of those protests!

"Imagine if people in the US protested like this" THEY DID! In 2020! The police beat the shit out of us! You all were there!

A hazardous materials expert recommends anyone in the East Palestine area "get a health check-up. Get a record now of where your health stands so that moving forward, you'll have documentation of any possibly related effects to the train derailment."

whenever chuck gets a lot of new followers after an art theory post or political statement it brings me great joy to consider their thoughts when they start getting audiobooks about sentient lesbian ice cream sandwiches on their dang timelines welcome to the tingleverse new buds

Cutting healthcare coverage and tuition remission is unprecedented, despicable, and is a calculated choice @TempleUniv is levying against our members for participating in protected action (a strike).

it's tough weeklies but it's honest work

@Gritty20202 Another policy that masquerades as a sick leave policy but is really a “report to work sick” policy is expecting people to provide a doctor’s note. If someone doesn’t have insurance, a PCP, or enough money for a dr visit, they won’t be able to get a note. So they go to work sick

Today Martis serves as a county commissioner in Lenawee County and a policy fellow at E&E Legal, a think tank funded by coal companies.

He continues to run advertising campaigns asking residents to block solar and wind projects and regularly spreads misinformation on Facebook.

A new Zillow study says that renters who make minimum wage have two options to keep rent under 30% of their income: either find 3 roommates (with 2 people per bedroom) or work 4 full-time jobs.

Also, this entirely false dichotomy the paper sets up between safety and the rights of marginalized people is so pernicious. Not only is it contrary to the available empirical evidence, but this is how low information liberal readers will justify fascism.

[Fifty Shades of Whey @davenewworld_2]

A gourmet market in Maine has to pay $51,034 after they were caught stealing wages from 86 workers, and for having at least 10 minors, ages 14 and 15, doing hazardous jobs for more hours than allowed by law. Nobody will go to jail for this and the media doesn't give a shit.

@mcg_celeste I feel like a significant difference in engagement participation and turnout for the primaries vs the general election plays a factor in always feeling stuck. Most people that aren’t chronically on Twitter don’t know about the good cantidates until they’ve already lost

[Rep. Summer Lee @RepSummerLee]

Tyre Nichols should be alive. So should Atatiana Jefferson, Antwon Rose, Mike Brown, and Philando Castile.

Police violence is crime.

We cannot say that we care about crime, but then do nothing over and over and over when the crime is committed by a police officer.

Is Uber now allowing hotbox as a car ride?

[David Lo Pun-ch Nazis @helpmeskeletor]

You know ‘lonely men are turning to fascism’ is a much kinder framing of ‘if these men can’t own women they’ll do genocide’.

Official wedding invites have been sent out, so can now finally share to the public.

Allison: Can we do our wedding invites like a romance novel?

Me: As you wish.

We don’t talk about this photo of Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett enough

@akatepockett Every AITA post is either
"I've done something unspeakably awful, everyone around me is telling me so, and I've fled to the internet seeking validation for my moral depravity"
or
"I am in a (not always romantic but often) abusive relationship".
There's no middle.
