$2 million settlement reached in death of Kentucky man 'strangled' in police custody Marion County will pay $1.6 million, and the city of Lebanon will pay $412,500 to resolve the wrongful death lawsuit.

Joseph "Joey" Martin died in December 2022 after deputies repeatedly tased, pepper sprayed and hit him. One knelt on Martin's neck for more than a minute and a half until he died.

Donate to Save Daniel's Smile: Urgent Dental Surgery, organized by Daniel Bachman Hey there! And thanks for checking out my GoFundMe to help pay for dental su… Daniel Bachman needs your support for Save Daniel's Smile: Urgent Dental Surgery

Im asking for help to save my front teeth. As many of you might know Ive spent my entire adult life as a full time artist, a lifestyle with little opportunity to afford basic health care over the years. Ive learned that without urgent surgery my teeth will likely abscess & be lost. Anything helps! ❀️‍πŸ”₯

unrelated to the zoning issue, i delivered paychecks to this guy's business way back in the day and there was a giant sculpture of a toilet in the office, so suffice to say i hope this guy's art gallery doesn't crap out, so to speak.

And that's not true. Publix is a privately-owned company, mainly owned by one family as well as its employees. Kroger is a publically-traded company. They are separate companies, and there is not one "mega-company" (whatever the fuck that is) that owns both.

organizations, institutions, etc. are made up of people. whatever flaws people have will be reflected in how they group themselves or are organized.

This laughably bad statement below, that Trump is "finally on the side of justice," is probably why it's not a good idea to lionize people like Massie for "standing up" to the president he will always be ultimately beholden to.
