    holy shit this is amazing

    Fun fact I learned: after police killed Emmeline Pankhurst's sister and groped and injured hundreds of early 1900s British suffragettes at a rally, the suffragettes taught themselves jiu-jitsu, planted barbed wire in flower arrangements where they spoke, & started beating up cops

    Meanwhile ICE got 4 year olds that can’t speak English in court representing themselves and are considered “fit” for trail. White people literally plan killings and get away with it

    Waffle House shooter suspect Travis Reinking was declared unfit for trial and will be moved to a mental health facility to receive treatment. He is accused of killing 4 young people of color with an AR-15 rifle in the April shooting.

    A former Tesla employee, who worked on their IT infrastructure, is posting in a subforum of a subforum, a little-known place for funy computer forgotten by time. His NDA has expired. He has such sights to show us. Join me and I will be your silent guide into a world of horror.

    Mollie Tibbetts was murdered b/c she told a man to leave her alone while she was jogging. Her murderer happens to be undocumented. This isn’t about border security. This is about toxic masculinity. Mollie Tibbetts lost her life b/c a man couldn’t take her saying no. Full stop.

    "assuming my gender" jokes aren't funny. they are boring and shitty, stupid cruel nonsense based on some stereotype of a strawman of a 4chan false flag everyone who tells such jokes is basically a Larry the Cable Guy impersonator. i pity them; it is a curse to be so unfunny

    Mollie Tibbetts was murdered because she told a man to leave her alone while she was jogging. But because he was an illegal immigrant you all wanna advocate for border control instead of against the root of the problem: violence towards women for saying no

    Working 30hrs/week, the average incarcerated worker would make over $11,000 more per year if paid minimum wage. This amounts to about $10,000,000,000 denied to the incarcerated workforce each year.

    1.5 million people currently in prison. 60% work full-time, at ~$0.14/hr. Their forced labor maintains the prisons incarcerating them. (1/x)

    I’m reminded of a time that former Rep Duncan Hunter Senior yelled at me for reporting on his son’s alleged misuse of campaign funds. And when he told me his son would be president someday. And when he showed up to Politico offices to scold my editors for my reporting.

    The real academic stars are faculty who teach 4/4 course loads or higher at schools no one has heard of to students who don’t plan to go on to academic careers. They show up and do their jobs skillfully and quietly with lousy benefits and low pay.

    He didn't just "end up" at the hospital. A man in the truck waving the Confederate flag got out of the car and beat the teenager up, forcing him to go to hospital.

    DO NOT FLIRT WITH YOUR STUDENTS. EVER. Don't harass them, don't make innuendos at them, don't tell dirty jokes, and for fuck's sake don't have sex with them. I cannot believe how often this comes up. With the inherent power imbalance, it is NEVER ethical under ANY circumstances.

    To the 63 academics defending a sexual harasser, thank you for making it a little easier for potential mentees/students/employees to know that you will decidedly not have their back if worst comes to worst. Full author list 👉
