THIS. Corporations will ALWAYS choose to pay the fine rather than change their ways. The only way this changes is to raise and enforce the fines to the degree that would financially ruin them.

To repeat what has been said by others, no! The white men demanding that the face of welfare be a black woman are not ignorant—they are racist. They care about their feelings, not the demographic facts of who needs and uses these services or that most recipients are working.

Night. The House of Chimes - a tower which you might immediately think of as Big Ben - is adrift in the River Thames. It still seems to be keeping time. In the background, a large, alien building looms over the city of London.

it gets worse. here's what someone else on social media posted when they used different AI I programs to de-pixilate the same image to show how incredibly INCREDIBLY damaging this could be in terms of relying on AI for any kind of identification of witnesses, suspects, victims, etc.

So much of my inner monologue these days is 'BITCH, DO NOT' and 'BITCH, I DID' punctuated occasionally by Rocky yelling 'DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY IS ROOM FOR TRASH WHY'.

A new rom-com just dropped called The Love Hypothesis and I was like FAKE DATING!!! that is one of my favourite tropes and of course it is directed by Claire Scanlon because it is totally normal for the big sister of your kid sister's best friend since the 2nd grade to direct all the TV ever.

It's important for you to know that while normally hyperbolic threats of physical violence is my love language, I'm really not kidding about the 'find some hustle' person. I have been applying for jobs since 2013 when I still had a job.

With the price of diesel climbing, I bet at least one old white guy who lobbied to kill America's rail system dead is feeling guilt for their role contributing to the complete and total collapse of logistics infrastructure right now. Just kidding, not one of those assholes had a soul between them.

For me, #TheGentlemen is nowhere near as entertaining when Susie and Eddie are at odds because I can't actually care about Eddie as a character on his own without Susie. Especially when they decided to remake On Her Majesty's Secret Service for no immediately discernable reason.
