#InternationalWomensDay2022
I’ll never stop missing you. I’ll never stop trying my best to honor you. I’m trying, Mom. I love you more than anything in this world. Thank you for what you gave me. Your strength, love, and hope could never be equaled. I’m proud to be your son~ ❤️
I know it’s become pretty cliche and cringey to talk about at this point but if you’re under like 25 I cannot stress enough how one time Obama wore a tan suit and people spent a week arguing over whether or not it was demeaning to the Oval Office and they were serious about it.
This is Timothy Hudson. He raped & killed his stepsister. A judge ruled because he’s 16 he gets to spend time at home with family awaiting trial.
He’s Not an immigrant. Not a Black or brown person. A US citizen with the complexion for protection.
16 year old Kalief Browder was tortured for 3 years in prison and solitary on the mere (false) accusation that he allegedly stole a backpack. He died by suicide from the trauma. Hudson gets to chill at home after raping & killing.
This is America.
You gotta look out for that punch 😵💫
Winterland Arena got a hefty dose of the Dead on this day in 1971, playing a highly vibrational show that could largely be attributed to a few trash cans full of LSD spiked punch–and some wicked Dead tunes. During the set the band would debut their cover of Chuck Berry’s “Promised Land.”
Here’s what the show would’ve looked like if you took a swig of said trash can punch.

Over a million acres of pristine wilderness lakes in Minnesota.
The most visited canoe country in America.
Generations of families have paddled it, fished it, camped it.
The Senate just sold it out outright.
They called it "America First."
Then handed it to a Chilean billionaire — so his company can ship the copper to China.
The Senate voted 50-49 to gut 20 years of Boundary Waters mining protections.
Here's the deal they made.
A Chilean billionaire's company digs the mine.
America can't smelt the copper — we don't have the capacity.
So the ore ships to China.
China processes it.
Sells it on the world market.
Chile keeps the profits.
Minnesotans don't even get the jobs.
Minnesota keeps the pollution.
And Americans get to buy it back from China at full market price.
This same company has a documented history at their Chilean mines: pipeline spills, regulatory fines, and locals fighting back for years.
They paid a former Trump Interior Secretary $380K.
The protection died by one vote.
Here's exactly how it happened — and who made it happen.
Who do YOU think this mine actually serves?

TL;DR: Pearl Jam dedicated a Pink Floyd song to Mickey Hart at Bonnaroo in 2016. I enthusiastically overthought the matter for years until learning Hart had allegedly requested the song. The more you know. 💫
Martha Stewart went to prison for saving herself $45,673 using an illegal stock tip.
Donald Trump traded stocks 3,700 times between Jan—Mar of this year, totaling between $220–$750 million, and used the presidency to make his stocks go up… And he’s walking around a free man.
So apparently our military vets are receiving letters from the Pentagon warning them that if they speak out against Trump or Israel online they risk losing their benefits.
Bold move to piss off millions of men that you taught to kill with an AR-15 and desensitize to murder under the guise of protecting the Constitution and strip of their own constitutional rights.
