The unhinged responses to the FBI legally searching that one guy’s house exemplifies how they only care about law enforcement when it works in their favor.
Man who had to take a “vacation” after he suggested on-air that he wanted Ivanka Trump to give him a blowjob tells woman fired by the NRA for superimposing KKK hoods on cartoon characters that America will be outraged the FBI director Donald Trump appointed is investigating him.
, a champion of disability justice and friend of Mask Oakland. She recently almost died several times and was extensively hospitalized and has recovered needs aid to avoid institutionalization. Please help:
There’s absolutely no reason Trump Tower should be shown any more grace than the tents of unhoused people in our city. There’s certainly no excuse for letting supporters of this criminal have roles of authority in our police department. Hold criminals accountable.
I thought you were cracking down on crime? This guy raped his wife and brags about breaking the law, how are we supposed to ride the subway or tell people to go back to work at the office without NYPD brutally assaulting him and then trashing all of his belongings?
Well, this crime is a lot more serious than allegedly selling loose cigarettes, so I hope NYPD will be far more aggressive in their treatment of this grandfather.
Breaking News: Donald Trump said that the FBI searched Mar-a-Lago, his private club and residence in Palm Beach, Florida, and broke open a safe. https://nyti.ms/3A3LC23
Context for those not in the know: John Lasseter sexually harassed women so often that he was forced from Pixar. When he came to Skydance women who shared concern were outsted/subject to abuse/left.
He's likely still harassing women at Skydance.
I think it's worth going out of your way to avoid notability on social media. The level of abuse & fighting online is not something most people have or need in their real lives. I can't fathom being okay with it
Anyway I'm here for friends, not fame
One thing that’s not evident enough on social media is how every visible underrepresented person you see with a platform (whether they chose to have one or not) has been targeted for abuse ranging somewhere from upsetting to truly ruinous. The vast majority is nearly invisible.
I wish there were a tool that archived all of the text from captions on TikTok videos and reassembled it back into written articles. There's a lot of good information (and... not-so-good information) being shared on the platform and it would be good to have it be accessible.
“this is an extremely serious problem. Not just for the underpaid, overworked employees at all of these low-wage jobs, desperately hanging on to financial survival by their fingernails, but for all of us.”
i am extremely concerned about the frequent and repeated consensus view in the nursing subreddit about the looming collapse of the american healthcare system
The U.S. Senate passed a $430 billion bill intended to fight climate change, lower drug prices and raise some corporate taxes, a victory for President Joe Biden https://reut.rs/3bAHqxp
The poorest county in the US has no hospital, the health department was converted to a police station, and is the most audited place in the US. It's Humphrey's County, MS. I was born there.
(For context, I’d seen the original Predator back in the 80s because someone always had the VHS playing; had no interest in the franchise in general. But Amber Midthunder is incredible in Prey. And probably the opposite of 80s Schwarzenegger in every way.)
I’m glad everybody on here was talking about Prey. Somehow I’d missed any hype or trailers for it, watched it and enjoyed it both on its own terms & as proof that including actors and cultures that don’t usually get a shot can immeasurably improve even the most tired franchise.
DHS officials worked to keep parents and children apart for extended periods of time, lamenting when reunifications happened too quickly. “We can’t have this,” a deputy at ICE wrote, as reunification “obviously undermines the entire effort.” Live now:

This guy doesn’t understand that this is my country, not his. Feel free to report his many racist tweets; it’ll be a good reminder that he has no power and means nothing to the world. https://twitter.com/bizzzdj/status/1556084957533151232…
as a result of my reporting on Helium, the New York Times updated its glowing profile on the decentralized network...
no mention. no link. just chalking up my work to "scrutiny from crypto skeptics"

One complication here is that many of the lawmakers advancing these bans are fine with keeping women out of the workforce. That's part of the point. Will the corporatists in the GOP win out over the christian nationalists?
Wow
After the passage of Indiana’s total abortion ban, Eli Lilly, one of the state’s biggest employers, says they’ll be planning their growth outside the state.
Because DUH how are you going to recruit women, aka HALF the population, to a state that outlaws their health care?!?
Breaking News: Alex Jones must pay $45.2 million in punitive damages to the parents of a child killed in the Sandy Hook school shooting, a jury decided.
Entertainment companies are not your friend. They will always prioritize saving money over preserving their archives. (This is also true of media companies.)
#RememberOakCreek means understanding how to create rapid response infrastructure to deal with mass violence. No one can prepare fully for these disasters. But unfortunately, given the rise in gun & hate violence in the US, we are all well aware of the landscape of the needs. 1/4
A good way to understand Prince’s relationship to basketball is the show he performed at the Place des Arts in Montreal in 1997, on the night before his birthday. During his guitar solos, he watched game 3 of the Bulls/Jazz finals on a TV at the side of the stage.
I didn’t have time to sync up the set list & recording of this Prince show to the play-by-play of Game 3 of the 1997 MBA Finals, but if any of you get around to it, let me know. It should indeed be possible to deduce whether Prince’s guitar solos were timed to Jordan’s baskets.

Iraq's heatwave is worsening, bringing under-reported hardship to 40m people

The new normal is here, including bigger waves of climate refugees
You are asked to punish Alex Jones, the man who is not sitting here today and will not face you.
You are asked to deter Jones from doing this again and deter others who may try to step into his shoes.

It's easy to be like, "Look, Alex Jones has an audience of millions. You've gotta cover him!" And okay. Sure.
This piece is about a different question: how did he get to the point of having an audience of millions in the first place?
Ten years ago, a white supremacist, motivated by hatred and racism, took the lives of seven people as they worshiped at their gurdwara.
Today, I’m sending strength and love to those throughout Oak Creek.
