On the *same day* the Cornell Seven drugged and raped Jane Doe, Cornell banned four students (including the President of Cornell JVP) from campus for three years for nonviolent, pro-Palestine protests. The same Cornell officials let the rapists off with apology essays.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media. Airlines have merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

You gotta just not care. I think so many people allow a small and vocal audience to shape what they say and do bc being intellectually honest and consistent in your beliefs is costly. But at the end of the day why have a platform if you won't stick to your guns

Technology never has been and never will be apolitical. The conveniences (for some) that modern tech has created are not without consequences. And a lot of people distrust Big Tech because they are living through those consequences. It's good for people to recognize all of these things

The right-wing organizing around the Lindsay Clancy trial is growing and it’s frightening. A lot of people overlook these culture wars revolving around women’s issues, because, well, they’re women’s issues. But the right doesn’t. It’s how they regained such a massive cultural foothold.

While Miller’s abuse, Clancy’s trial, and Smith’s tradwife back-pedaling may seem like very different stories, they’re all connected by one common thread: the outraged response from women, especially mothers.

The trial of Lindsay Clancy, the former labor and delivery nurse accused of killing her three young children, has produced a wave of public commentary. In the absence of a clear source to blame, it is the list of meds that had been prescribed to Clancy in the months leading up to the tragedy.

Prescriptions without medical context can prevent women from seeking help for highly treatable conditions.

ICE IS KILLING PEOPLE IN THE SHADOWS. Prisciliano Trejo Ricano begged for a doctor. He became the 50th person to die in ICE custody. Anne Frank wasn’t shot; she died of neglect in a camp. ICE uses the same playbook: murder by medical neglect. ICE DETENTION CENTERS ARE DEATH CAMPS.
