PLAN C: Abortion pills by mail in every state Plan C is an information resource for self-managed, at-home abortion with pills. Learn how people in the U.S. are accessing abortion pill options online.

If you live in an abortion-restricted state, order your abortion pills now. PlanCPill.org will direct you to a provider who delivers to your state. If you live in Texas, you'll need to go through AidAccess.org. Legal jeopardy is on the provider, not the recipient--for now. So order them now.

Anyway the Animation Guild is in negotiations RIGHT NOW.

Give us a ✊🏻!

The louder the public support, the more fair of a deal we can get! It's true!

Telecom fights price caps as U.S. spends billions on internet access As Washington readies the largest burst of broadband funding in U.S. history, AT&T, Verizon and their allies are lobbying against lower prices for consumers.

telecom giants are about to receive $45 billion in taxpayer money to expand broadband as part of the infrastructure bill

but they're lobbying to kill state requirements asking they make at least a half-hearted effort to make broadband affordable to poor people:

Omg I love this. I’ve been saying for years that this is the way forward and have been consistently told it’s impossible.

Former "officer of the year" from Massachusetts charged with attacking police, Disney World security A former "officer of the year" from the Brookline Police Department was arrested during a trip to Disney World.

Once you notice that off-duty police are only arrested on vacation (out of jurisdiction) you'll never stop

Also, people react like getting an award for being the best deescalator in his dept + threatening to kill someone are contradictory, but both easily can be true www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/...

Gaza’s economy has been erased. Famine and black markets are all that remain.

Even in areas where the Israeli ground invasion has not reached, Gaza’s society has been decimated and its economy no longer exists, while basic goods can be found on the black market for ten times their prewar price.

ponzu plus kewpie mayo is a good salad dressing

this checks out completely... when state violence is justified by liberals (bc the state has the only *legitimate* claim to enact violence), resistance to state violence is seen as unjustified, senseless and deserving of punishment/repression...

Top UN official in New York steps down citing ‘genocide’ of Palestinian civilians Craig Mokhiber, director of human rights body, accuses the US, UK and much of Europe as ‘wholly complicit in the horrific assault’

"The director of the New York office of the UN high commissioner for human rights has left his post, protesting that the UN is “failing” in its duty to prevent what he categorizes as genocide of Palestinian civilians in Gaza under Israeli bombardment"

When Idiot Savants Do Climate Economics How an elite clique of math-addled economists hijacked climate policy.

“Nordhaus’s list of the indoor activities free of any effects from climate disruption include manufacturing, mining, transportation, communication, finance, insurance, real estate, trade, private sector services, and government services.” theintercept.com/2023/10/29/w...

a lot of discussion i’ve seen talking about like, “how could people who survived the holocaust turn around and do this to others” reminds me of how during a talk about his book MAUS, art spiegelman said re:israel, “suffering doesn’t make people good, it just makes them suffer”

there is unfortunately no spiritual inoculation against cruelty. the holocaust was not a “teachable moment.” a population can experience unimaginable and senseless inhumanity and still inflict it on others. there is nothing morally cleansing about hardship

Should anyone claim that “ethnic cleansing” is too strong a phrase to describe what the Israeli government is trying to do in Gaza, we direct you to this document, just leaked from the Israeli Ministry of Intelligence, recommending the transfer of the entire Palestinian population of the Gaza Strip.

Security guard says Dallas officers knelt on him, mistook him for violent crime suspect Silvester Hayes alleged in a federal lawsuit that officers Holly Harris, Walter Paul Guab and about eight others kicked, punched and tased him, and dislocated...

This story is rage-inducing. Dallas cops violently arrested an innocent man after mistaking him for a guy with a similar name.

The kicker: After noticing their error, they made up bogus charges. He was jailed for days & lost his job.

Millions of Workers Are Training AI Models for Pennies From the Philippines to Colombia, low-paid workers label training data for AI models used by the likes of Amazon, Facebook, Google, and Microsoft.

Of course. Of course the miracle of AI is a mechanical Turk. Not just stealing art. Humans even work the *boring* AI from inside. And it’s a colonial monster too, exploiting poor overseas labour. Oh, AI, is there nothing you can’t enshittify? TW: dark as fuck.

Low-Key Green Pueblo is a world-class model for the clean-energy economy envisioned in the Inflation Reduction Act. But its residents may not feel it.

Biden's visiting CS Wind, the world's largest wind turbine manufacturer, in Pueblo, CO.
We did a long piece last week on Pueblo's burgeoning role as a clean energy hub, and how it's not trickling into the public consciousness or their pocketbooks (CS Wind is non-union):

If you’re formulating a Hot Take™️ about the horrors in Gaza right now, listen to this episode. Thank you @mskellymhayes.bsky.social for this deeply informative episode.

It's been obvious from the start that the Israel attack on Gaza would end up killing the hostages.

If Hamas didn't kill hostages already, the IDF's bombs might kill them, or Israel's dehydration of Gaza will. Sick that Israel is effectively killing the victims in whose name they pretend to fight.

The picture used by YAF & shared by Scott Walker here that purports to be "terrorist attacks on Israel" is actually the a picture of a residential tower in Gaza being destroyed by the Israeli military.

the Adults in the Room keep telling me we need to put as much money as possible into the police in order to reduce crime but the police themselves don’t seem to really give a shit about solving any crime whatsoever

hey yes i think so, you could try something like this: jeffreyeverhart.com/2020/09/29/a...
