Chad Loder@chadloder.dev · 4d agoThe diarrhea lettuce company, Taylor Farms, uses slave labor contracted from the Arizona Dept. of Corrections. The backbreaking labor is often performed by imprisoned Mexican nationals who would be otherwise ineligble to work in the US. They are paid $1.50 an hour.
In which I push back in a polite way about the false equivalency between the left and the right when it comes to allegations of sexual misconduct.
When the copyright of Peter Pan ran out, Great Ormond Street hospital was given a perpetual right to future royalties. What if we started doing this for other works? Artists could agree to opt into this. It could be a great income stream for the arts. Worth a think www.thetimes.com/article/28cf...
Why I’m backing this plan that could save the arts (and not cost us a penny)

Saw The Odyssey last night and realized there’s another reason the right’s rage furbys are foaming at their mouths over the film. It is deeply antiwar, making an argument that builds incident by incident. Nolan’s sin: making explicit the vicious destructiveness of “heroic” ambition and violence.

So the bread has glass in it, the lettuce has diarrhea-causing bacteria, the eggs have salmonella, the beef has screw worms, the produce is somehow bad all the time now, AND everything is more expensive. What the actual fck is going on?
Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket and share its content. Thanks. demdock.com/4w6emld
#MAGA Truth: Trump was twice convicted of red-lining, the process of denying housing to Black American families by both the Nixon and Carter DOJs. Trump's racism runs long and deep. Repost to spread this truth.
I have heard this outbreak is being caused by Taylor Farms lettuce used at Taco Bell, but considering their lettuce is at Costco and Kroger and Walmart and Target and Safeway and Albertsons and Whole Foods (and other fast food chains) for now let us just avoid lettuce.

Sen. Booker to Todd Blanche: "Your nomination should fail. The Attorney General's client is not the president, it's the American people. You've been protecting one person for most of your career…You should not be confirmed to this job."
I've been in the room since the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing began this morning, watching Acting AG Blanche dodge questions and spew lies. One thing is clear: if he’s confirmed, he would keep using the DOJ to serve his own interests and protect his friends, not Americans.
I'm a boomer and have millennial and gen-z daughters who understand why we have vaccines and believe in them. It's not a generational thing. It's an intelligence, critical thinking, feelings over facts thing.

Congratulations to Lindsey Graham for writing his own obituary ten years and two months in advance. The question of who deserves it remains, since the natural world and a whole lot of people in this country and beyond do not deserve it.
Lindsey Graham knew all along, but supporting a vile human being was more important than being a descent human being #DV1 #ProudBlue
