LAPD advancing on the crowd and firing less lethals for a minute straight. Watch the whole video. LAPD is unhinged right now.

Fuck the pigs!

A cancer patient develops pneumonia and goes to the ED. Hospital was full so she was stuck in ED sharing bathroom with other patients, where she was exposed to measles.

Now her cancer treatment is delayed by a month.

We desperately need universal masking in healthcare.

The amount of money Trump is stuffing into his pockets is unprecedented and unfortunately barely noticed.

But what really pisses me off is he's making hundreds of millions of dollars while taking food from kids, jobs from veterans, and health care from people with disabilities.

Baffling how so many people still don’t know how OpenAI (and Meta) has people in Kenya in sweatshops reviewing horrific content to “train” their programs in horrifically inhumane conditions working for under $2 an hour day in and day out.

If Illegals are freeloaders. Why does ICE need to go into workplaces?

jk rowling has said the profits from that new harry potter series are going to be used to try and take away trans rights wherever possible btw, so just letting you know if you watch it on streaming or pay for it you are directly funding that

The Medici banking family financed the bulk of the Northern Italian Renaissance for the price of a mid-sized yacht in today’s money. Our billionaires are historically uncultured.

Trump gave a druggie access to all our data and we’re talking about his urination habits and not the data breach.

This may be the most important post you read today.

As we see ICE escalating violence against immigrants & citizens alike, below is a shareable film series by immigration lawyers on how to safely defend against ICE.

Feeling helpless? Here’s something you can do. Read on:

This is unconscionable. Shame on you, @PandaExpress. I’ll be letting people know not to bother ordering from you again.

#Azawad
A video on the history of Azawad resistance to Malian occupation, revolutions in Azawad, and agreements with successive Malian governments, none of which have been respected and implemented by the Malian authorities.
It is worth mentioning that the massacres committed by the Malian army against the people of Azawad during the 1963 revolution were supported by the Soviet Union, and that the current massacres are also being perpetrated by the Malian army against the people of Azawad with the official support of Russia through the Wagner Corps and the Africa Corps.

GeoConfirmed ISR - Warcrime.

IDF soldiers ambushed multiple ambulances, a fire truck and their personnel (15+), killing them on-site, burying the bodies along with the vehicles (according to NYT based on sattelite imagery)(!) and lied about the circumstances (!). It took 5 more days before IDF allowed safe passage to search for the missing first responders. (!)

A spokesperson for the IDF, Lt. Col. Nadav Shoshani (@LTC_Shoshani), issued a statement on March 31, now demonstrated to be FALSE by emerging evidence, asserting

"Uncoordinated vehicles were identified advancing suspiciously toward IDF troops without headlights or emergency signals."

The footage provides conclusive proof that:
The ambulances and fire truck were unmistakably operating as emergency vehicles, with their lights activated, and the personnel were wearing their reflective gear.

(Statement by IDF spokeperson

This incident has been described as one of the most severe potential war crimes attributed to the IDF.

Reportedly it represented the single deadliest attack on Red Cross and Red Crescent Society workers anywhere in the world since 2017.

Eventually, rescue teams uncovered the ambulances and the remains of 14 paramedics and 1 UN employee who had been reported missing. 1 is reportedly still missing.

This is a completely fake video that comes from a well-known Russian disinformation operation. It uses the logo and branding of major news outlets to publish fake videos that disparage Ukraine.

The BBC never published this fake clip.

One of the BEST things about menopause is having your entire wardrobe out, all the time, because your internal temperature never knows what layer of clothes it might need. Hot, cold, hot, cold, there is no in between.
