@according2_taz I’d kill it! Looks like a hornet. They are ruthless angry little turds

@SubjMatterXpert @Kyle_C137 Not necessarily, lots of people just like the idea of outsourcing the hard work of thinking for themselves and making their own decisions- they are ultimately lazy and cowardly.

The road to hell is paved with lazy idiots.

@queengeorgiaIV @moorehn If he was being honest and direct the entire msg should have been 30-60 seconds. He’s trying to ultimatum her, manipulate her etc.,

He should have just text her “I want sex. Don’t want to get to know you unless you give me what I want now. The end”

Just got off the phone with my college roommate.

His daughter was diagnosed with leukemia in January.

He has insurance. Good insurance. The kind you feel safe having.

7 months later:
Savings: wiped out. 401k: cashed early. Penalties and all. House: refinanced to cover the gaps insurance decided weren’t their problem.

He told me he’s not the same person anymore.

Said watching your child fight for her life while simultaneously fighting an insurance company over coverage codes does something to you that doesn’t go away.

They did everything right.
Two incomes. No debt. Responsible their whole lives.

One diagnosis undid all of it in 7 months.

And somewhere a health insurance CEO is getting a $30 million bonus this quarter.

I don’t know how people defend this system with a straight face.

I really don’t.

🚨WHAT ON EARTH?!!!

Over 100 Flock cameras that were set to "go dark" at the end of June after city council voted to shut them down...

...have bizarrely just REMAINED ON and the police are still using them

On June 17, the city council's safety committee voted to END the contract because when they asked police to prove these cameras actually reduce crime, the police could point to only 3 cases that led to convictions.

So the city council let the contract expire on June 29th, but then people noticed the cameras were still up...

...because Flock VOLUNTEERED to keep running them for FREE while the city "figures it out."

In fact, police confirmed they are still running them to "keep the community safe" and the company agreed to keep the system live, despite the contract expiring.

It gets worse.

When reporters asked simple questions like... is data still being collected? Do the cameras shut off or keep recording? Who can access what was already stored? It turned out that neither the city NOR Flock would answer.

So just to recap:

The contract is expired.
The elected body said no.
Nobody re-authorized it.
Flock won't say what it's doing with the data.

...but the cameras are STILL ON and being used by police

I wish people understood that people with no support system operate completely differently than the average person

@BoringBiz_ They were doing this back in 2009. It’s just a power trip. I had the university of Phoenix try to make me do 3 rounds of interviews for a job I’d been working (as a temp) for 9 months. They promised me the job if I applied, but there were 24 other ppl at the first interview.

@adkisojk @BloodstainedMen We care about bodily autonomy. My body, my choice applies to male bodies too.

[Beth @workingshade]

@according2_taz @people She doesn’t even have radical views. She believes trans ppl should be allowed to dress/express themselves/call themselves whatever they want. She just believes in single sex spaces. She’s in a majority on this.

and, yeah, she’s a great author too.

Running an ice cream cone under steaming hot water and it resists melting, eventually it washes away

Many ice creams in America will no longer melt because the ingredients have been changed, they are actually engineered to not melt. Modern ice creams have:

- Higher Levels of Stabilizers and Gums
- High percentages of Vegetable Oils and Fats instead of Dairy Fat
- More Air than standard ice cream, sometimes over 100%
- More sweeteners, maltodextrins and other solids adjust the freezing point

Many ice creams can’t even legally be called ice cream anymore in America

Our food is a science experiment

Rape victim k!lled her rapist after his release.

She got arrested and her statement was -

“He raped me, not the State. Who gave you the right to forgive him without consulting me?”

Do you agree with her,

Yes or No？

Prince Harry is like “if you peasants don’t pay for me to have the most elite tier of security all the experts think I don’t need then SO HELP ME GOD I will keep my very unpopular wife and anonymous children far away from you” and I kinda see a couple of flaws in his argument

[Beth @workingshade]

@WallStreetApes Maybe it’s a wasteful govt program to annoy homeless ppl enough not to camp there? They put speakers out to deter homeless settlements in other places.

Just a guess.

[Beth @workingshade]

@CStellarlord @tafkamichael @ma1ybe It treats everyone as a suspect. The govt would have the DNA of every child, girls included, and you know they’ll be using that too!

I don’t know a single person who questions the paternity of their children. They all look like their parents! I don’t think this is common at all

LISTEN: Jacob Rockwell was fined for running a red light in Pensacola, Florida.

Only thing is Jacob wasn’t in Florida, he was in Alabama.

He sounded off at a local city meeting recently and his concerns go beyond just one citation.

RFK JR: “Today, a compliant child must take between 69 and 92 vaccines to stay in school... and NOT ONE of them has been safety tested in a pre-licensing placebo-controlled trial."

"That is just MALPRACTICE."
