@oh_HOLMES Many of the settlers grew up in America. They went there to terrorize people. Watch the Louis Theroux doc Settlers on YouTube. One of the guys is just a guy from Texas who has machine guns around his settlement
@oh_HOLMES My understanding is that it varies but it’s no more than $25 an hour. I hired an ex cook for one of my kitchens and I think she was making $20 but starting at a lot of locations is under $15.
@oh_HOLMES What do you think about a federal jobs program, new deal style? Basically like joining the military but instead of getting sent off to work, you become a tradesman who does infrastructure projects around the country, and you get good pay, pension, school scholarships
@crbrinkmann I never see anyone mention this, but in Mr. Scorsese, they show that his wife is ill and needs extra care. That kind of care is incredibly expensive for families so it could be that.
@ruwaromman Thank you! I’m honestly astounded by the callousness of good liberals in the South. For a part of the country where we should all know the consequences of policy that targets a minority and allows their life to be ruined by accusations, they lose their moral clarity
@hellciee This is very true, especially for novels. I’ve read I think 4 novels so far this year that probably avg 300 pages. I normally pick a Saturday or Sunday and finish it that day.
@barely_th3re Literally can’t understand how anyone can be mad at a religious institution providing people with free burial services. Just pure evil hatred from these losers scared of the “big city “
@ruwaromman These people are so gross, dumb and racist. Of course their deflection from the state being plundered by rich freaks is that Ruwa must be Hamas. I want to see a day in Georgia where we’re finally past such bullshit
@_Zeets Unbuild walls is a great book about this. It’s primarily about immigration detention over the last 50 years but is very clear about its ties to mass incarceration broadly
@EPM106 I think a big part of this is that Frankenstein has been Netflix’s main awards contender so they’ve spent most of their FYC campaign cache on it. I think if Jay Kelly or house of dynamite had been better, you’d see less- like only below the line noms
