A Korean king ordered a bunch of linguists to come up with a written language to increase literacy due to the difficulty of chinese and they came up with one of the easiest to read languages in existence.

Bust up big corporations and tackle Wall Street’s greed. Get big money out of politics. Strengthen unions and boost wages. Pass Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare, and so much more... This is the agenda Democrats need to fight for. It's not enough to simply be anti-Trump.

Pay teachers a fair wage. Pay paraprofessionals who help support our kids a fair wage. Make sure our schools are safe, clean, warm, and dry.

Jews are many ethnicities; all races; a variety of religious traditions; multiple peoples and/or nations. This is a bad step, and misrepresents what it means to be Jewish. Different Jews identify differently with all of these things, and to codify this in law flattens that reality.

People are always quick to say “if it’s really that bad you will get help” but that is NOT HOW IT WORKS. If you don’t have family or deep pockets, you are on your own. The support services don’t exist. That’s why so many of us get trapped in abusive situations. There’s no easy out.

Beautiful flecks of color dance through the branches of these oaks, their overhanging branches forming a cool tunnel of shade protecting the hiking trail. The brush strokes are loose and full of texture, creating an expressionist movement of color and light.

Queer communities are actually pretty much the only spaces that still give a fuck about the health of the disabled and chronically ill. They’re certainly the only place I’ve found continuing support (and I’m not even queer!). We should be celebrating and emulating that acceptance.

If you’re near LA, the Bay Area, or New York City, join a rally to demand our leaders stand strong against a Paramount-Warner Brothers merger. Oakland: www.mobilize.us/notabovethel... NYC: www.mobilize.us/notabovethel... LA: www.mobilize.us/notabovethel...
No Concessions.
Block the Merger.

Twelve state AGs sued to block Paramount's takeover of Warner Bros. We raised our voices about how this mega merger would lead to job losses, fewer creative opportunities, more censorship, and reduced free expression. In a stunning blow to Paramount, the AGs filed suit and a judge issued a restraining order.

Now we need to take action to make sure the Attorneys General stand strong!

RALLY WITH US!
• Oakland: 9/20 5pm @ CAAG Office, 1515 Clay St
• NYC: 9/21 9am @ NY AG' Office, 28 Liberty St
• LA: 9/22 10am @ WGA West HQ, 7000 W 3rd

Do you think people get to decide what to do with their body? That's the question here. It has nothing to do with sports, with safety, with anything. Do you think your body is yours. Let's start there. Ceding ground there means ceding ground for bodies everywhere.

This is a canary resuscitator, which miners would use to revive canaries that had passed out from toxic gas, because ideally not only do you care, you don't even leave the bird behind. just a little mining history and not at all a furious scream

Yeah the problem is that cis people forgot you're supposed to care when the canary dies. Instead we're getting takes like "now that the canary has finally shit up, we can actually focus on some mining"

Nobody is going to want to hear this, but a real risk we face, no matter who is president next, is that they will see no need to restore the rights lost or the executive power stolen in the last 10 years.
