@sister_country@TheMaineWonk The Internet Archive is a nonprofit that is actually doing this! They regularly make copies of basically the entire internet going back to 1998.
@jerlenaz@kristenschaaled If a protest is “allowed” by the university, how can it be illegal? They’re not trespassing if they’re allowed to be there, and free speech is protected by the constitution
@cyclesofthemind@ReallyAmerican1 Time has always said their “Person of the Year” is not meant to be an accolade or achievement. It’s the person “for better or for worse has done the most to influence the events of the year”. So definitely not inaccurate in any of those cases.
@joel_ram88 @johnnymaga Leviticus 19:33-34:
“When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the Lord your God.”
@paulgarofalo11@harryjsisson It’s called inflation. The prior threshold was $400, set in 1982 which is equivalent to about $1300 today. So actually, it should be higher.
@Cheetoignocnito@Fyght4Cal @DrRupaMarya It’s telling that you think of white supremacy as just another political point of view, and one that you apparently identify with as being not opposed to all reasonable people, but just an opponent of liberalism
@HouseBoatDoc@fakedansavage A lot of workplaces actually explicitly say it’s okay if you notify management and if one person isn’t in any position of power over the other.
@TerryWasHereX@BDTRELILBROTHER Yeah, if we’d done that, all the white people would have to go back to Europe too though, so it wouldn’t make a lot of sense in this country, genius
“This fight is everyone’s fight.” Amazon workers deliver for our communities every day; it’s time Amazon does the same by investing in workers.
Join the thousands of workers, electeds and community members demanding a union contract for Amazon workers: https://t.co/5WVxKQ94iW
When Teamsters fight, Teamsters win! Last night, we marched on the boss to demand Amazon recognize our union 🔥
Over 100 Amazon DCK6 workers have now joined the Teamsters to demand a union contract that secures better pay, safety standards, benefits, and working conditions.
We are Amazon DCK6 workers in San Francisco and are beyond excited to be forming a union to fight for our livelihoods. Just wages, working conditions, and respect on the job is just the start. We are unstoppable!
@CurtisFlex7130@RonFilipkowski @TJSeraphim You have no idea what you’re talking about. Why do you think insurance companies are all required to insure people they used to consider uninsurable? And why birth control now has a $0 copay under all insurance? The answer is Obamacare
@JohnHKingston@amazonteamsters Not quite. Although Amazon uses third party contractors who are the “employer of record”, AMZ retains the right to fire individual workers, set their schedule, control their routes, etc. So drivers here and in Palmdale are arguing AMZ is a joint employer and they are striking AMZ
@alexanderlabrie@focusfronting Dude, I’m fucking 45 years old. My partner and I own property together. You really want me to call her my “girlfriend” like we’re going steady on the playground? There is a level that’s above girlfriend/boyfriend but not technically spouse. Sorry if you’ve never been there.
@heyyitsdidi My brother was born a week after my birthday. Just thought it was coincidence until my partner said, “Huh, so what was going on 9 months before your birthdays?” And I realized it fell exactly on my parents’ anniversary. My sister was also born 9 months after my dad’s b-day
@mofarrar @GrantTanaka Anything over 40 hours in a week has to be time and a half by federal law. In California it’s also anything over 8 hours in a day
