The voting disenfranchisement of Indigenous Americans is widespread and no one talks about it.

I must have fallen and hit my head…when did we decide bridges…INTERNATIONAL bridges, could be owned by billionaires?

every single successful general strike in US history has had union backing through the local AFL-CIO

this is the first time it’s been called for since the 1940s

They already put her in the smallest movie theater they have, the one for kids matinees and board meetings. Lol.

The problem is the mirror is Dorian Greys, its the magic mirror of truth for the Evil Queen, the Mirror of Erised. And they don’t want to believe.

There is trash in every genre but Historical Romance often is an accurate dive into fashion, politics, weaponry, transportation, animal husbandry, farming, child labor, women’s rights…and don’t get me started on the vocabulary lessons!

We will never have fair elections again under t, there are too many ways to subvert them. We will not be able to go back, too much damage and lost faith and realizations of structural failure. We need to stop looking back at what we know and start creating something new and scary and necessary.

Its about percentages folx. The PB are not the majority, they are not rotten apples spoiling the barrel. The barrel was already filled with worm ridden apples. THE CALL IS COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE. And you are in the house.

TEXT: I think also the focus on ending qualified immunity, I think, is one of those sort of interest convergence moments that Professor Hansford was referring to. I just want to really emphasize to people, qualified immunity only comes into play after someone has been harmed, after someone has been killed. And, you know, it’s a defense in civil litigation that a cop can raise in defense of their actions to avoid having to pay compensation to the family members, and it’s a defense that we can sometimes overcome in litigation. And there are officers who have raised that defense, have not been able to assert it. Their motions to raise that defense have been defeated. And those cops still were able to remain on the force, remain continued in their employment, and are still out there doing the violence of policing that we’ve been talking about. So, that’s what I was getting at with this tweet, is that I’m not really interested in reforms that only focus on what we do after police officers have beat a 29-year-old father to death. I want to focus on reforms that are going to stop that from happening in the first place. And I want to focus and I want to invite the

Just gonna share @dreanyc123.bsky.social on qualified immunity and call it a night.

I have never purchased something that fast. If its a scam, scam me baby! You deserve it for that amazing design!

The Dems need to be trying is the full sentence. Its almost like they are profiting in the same way as Repugs, almost like they play on the same team with different color jerseys. Power has broken the system and we drag out recovery hoping to go backwards to what didn’t work already.

Excuse me, but why is the rapist pedophile in your home when you arrive Sir, and why are you happy about it?

When you say you want to be successful at something, do you ever stop and think about whose value system you are using to judge it?

My new favorite thing is watching men do the “plank until failure” trend. Sometimes its popcorn, sometimes its a vibrator, but its ALL entertaining.

This made me happy

Oh please let a court back him on this concept…

Lets assume he really was dragged by a car in the line of duty recently. If he is so traumatized by that incident that he is unable to exercise good judgement when faced with that fear again…then he shouldn’t have been out on the job, and ICE is responsible for murder still.

I was deeply moved by this, its worth a listen.

ICE murdered a woman in Minnesota today for the temerity of driving away from them. Where do the loops end, and what kind of ending will it be?

ICE killed someone in Portland. We have seized a Russian tanker with “assets” not oil. There is planning for a war with Greenland. We have just started the first big loop-de-loop on this roller coaster and they forgot our seatbelts. Hang on tightly to those you love.

Extreme wealth creates mental illness. You cannot be surrounded by a world designed to enhance your every pleasure and shield you from every pain and have you have ANY understanding of the impact of your choices and actions. Its an experience that destroys your ability to empathize.

Tesla created program with gig drivers that heavily incentivized them to buy, and promoted it through Uber/Lyft before E went wacko publicly. A lot of those gig drivers are now trapped, underwater and unable to sell them. Not saying what to do, just pointing out who’s hurt by it. Not Tesla for sure.

French far-right politicians want to reopen brothels as sex-worker cooperatives The current system, in which paying for sex is illegal, doesn't work, said Jean-Philippe Tanguy, a National Assembly member.

So it turns out that anyone can sign in, give themselves a zip code that starts with a 6 (don’t worry, they prompt you!), and then submit a name for the new snowplow.

“Abolish Ice” is a good one, no?

I really wish the “We won’t get fooled again!” generation had tried just a little bit harder.

Morning clothes criteria require more warmth, more pockets, more room, and are allowed to be stained/torn. Day clothes can be lighter, must have pockets but can be fewer, and are more fitted. And no tears/stains. You might have to answer the door during the day.
