You have to be a leading lady but you can’t be nominated for best actress. You have to be a strong female director but you can’t be nominated for best director. You have to have a wildly popular dance song but you can’t be nominated for best original song.
BREAKING: Corporate profits drove over half of all inflation between April and September 2023, according to @Groundwork.
Greedflation is out of control.
It’s time we hold greedy corporations accountable and make them pay their fair share in taxes.

More evidence of my naïveté: I honestly thought political media would care far more about women and girls dying due to lack of access to abortion care than they would over a U.S. Senator wearing a hoodie to work. Serves me right.
An Alabama high school band director was tased multiple times by police after the conclusion of a football game because police wanted him to stop the students from playing.
This is out of control...let me repeat: a BAND DIRECTOR...

THREAD: This is harrowing. Saudi Arabia wanted the names of 6000 anonymous Arab Spring dissidents from Twitter. At first, MBS tried to get their names using EDRs - requests under emergency circumstances. When that proved cumbersome, KSA basically bought Twitter. 1/
