A lot of guys I'm seeing are mentioing that they aren't saying anything because they're afraid to come off as "performative".

Guys, please be performative. Please be cringe about it. That fear you have to look bad is the same fear that shut the 50 other group chat members up.

This is part of the regime's attempt to crush organized labor and replace unionized TSA workers with contractors. They tried to eliminate workers bargaining rights last year, then forced them to work through the shutdown w/o pay for more than a month, and now this.
TSA says it is removing chairs at document checks in airports, requiring staff to stand for their shift.

TSA explained the reason as twofold: to ensure its employees meet its fitness standards and to create an amiable environment for travelers.

Full support for everyone striking today for public services in France ✊

And teachers in particular, since I see every day how they are mistreated by the government. And the students. And the firefighters. And the doctors and hospital staff. And more, lots of people 🥰

I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life.

If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

At a time when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction.

But not Jack Smith.

Kudos to him for continuing to be a much needed voice of clarity.
Jack Smith: "History teaches that the rule of law is rarely destroyed all at once. It's often weakened by attacks on the institutions and the public servants sworn to uphold it. Since January 2025, we have witnessed precisely such an effort."

After reviewing the brutal invasions of US metro areas, Amnesty International now officially calls for abolishing ICE.

While the grassroots has said #AbolishICE for years, support from the global human rights org signals a significant momentum shift as public support for mass deportations plummets

Remember that repentance, atonement + attaining forgiveness are not the same thing. Focus on the first.

1) Own the harm, fully + completely
2) Begin to work to change for real, addressing root causes via therapy + education
3) AMENDS in convo w/SA experts*

If you have a hard time empathizing with people unlike yourself but call yourself a fiscal conservative then you should be for SAVING taxpayer dollars by housing the houseless.
“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.

In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

OpenAI hacks the Australian Government this time. I don’t quite understand why these hacks don’t result in criminal charges every time. Hacking is illegal, and these systems are owned and run by companies with responsibility for their tools.
