New research indicates Walmart is working to compile massive amounts of data on individual shoppers and potentially charge them different prices, despite the company’s denial. This shady tactic is called surveillance pricing, and Walmart isn’t the only corporation planning to use it. Watch.

If you're remotely interested in synthesizers, pick up a m-vave fm-1 off aliexpress for $60. You basically get a dx7 right out of the box but the online community is going nuts with custom firmwares. Can be everything from a virtual analog synth to a full on DAW. Built in speaker and battery too

“But they also need counseling!” Sure do, how about you come up with a plan for that. “But it should go to the real police, not the campus police!” I agree! How about you come up with an idea for making that happen? I don’t have more power than you do, here.

Yes, rape victims need a lot more than the ability to take time off or transfer. And yes, there are other circumstances in which students deserve the same ability. I am proposing a targeted system for *this particular problem* bc we are not going to immediately solve patriarchy.

The old boys network is ensuring that too many women come out of college traumatized by predatory men. But college is *ours*. We fund it. We attend it. And we succeed at it far more than men do. It’s time to remind colleges and universities who they owe.

If universities and colleges can’t keep their primary customers safe, at the very least, they can ensure that women (and any victims of sexual assault) are still able to get their money’s worth in terms of their education and degree, even if that means a warm handoff to a different school.

Women are the primary customers of colleges and universities, and were also the primary donors. Women are also the primary victims of campus rape, by a wide margin.

Basically, if you need time off, it’s fine, or if you don’t, it’s fine, but if you don’t want to be here anymore, we’re going to handle the work and the stress of ensuring your education doesn’t suffer because of what a rapist did to you at our school (without accepting legal liability blahblahblah)

And then present options to the victim: hey, here are colleges that’ll accept you frictionlessly if you want to get out of here. We’ll work out how everything transfers, current tuition setup will cover the rest of the semester/year/whatever, here’s someone to work with on financials beyond that.

I’m not saying that if you got into a small community college you should be able to transfer to Harvard automatically if you get raped, but there should be a network of caring administrators in place that can say, hey, I have a student who has an emergency transfer need…

We need people in college/university administration to be able to work together to make sure that victims of college rape can A) take time off if they need to and B) transfer to a different school if they want to without losing credits, money, etc.

I’m realistic enough to know that we’re not going to fix the campus rape problem overnight, because patriarchy is multifaceted and cockroach-like in its survival abilities, but something I think we could get in place fast is a program for letting victims transfer without penalties.

That's another way we could fix the campus rape epidemic. Cornelius Failson McRichpants doesn't get to get an Ivy degree until he can go 5 years without a rape charge instead of getting to go rape somewhere else. We could do that with killer cops, too.

It's good to point out these sorts of lame intimidation efforts. But it's also important to put the ineffectiveness in context. If the goal is to promote voting, flagging the structural limitations of federal threats should be part of that process.

Look, this is bad. Yes. But the Trump admin sent six (6) people to Maricopa and Pima. Where, by my count, there are 404 polling places, spread across 18,000 square miles (each county is ~9k sq mi). What they want is the FEAR to discourage the voting they can't actually prevent.
