The mercenaries in the US-Israeli government’s so-called “aid” operation in Gaza—run by military contractors and resembling prison camps—are firing on the very Palestinians it’s supposed to help. This is not humanitarian aid.
Once you realize that you're only temporarily "abled", and disability is in almost everyone's future, it charges how you see the world.
Hank Green@hankgreen.bsky.social · last yr.The RFK Jr. version of health, where health creates health and healthy people don't get sick and the thing that keeps you healthy is /living the right way/ is very seductive to a lot of people. It also places the burden of illness back on the ill, which decreases the value of human life.

the arrest of a judge by ICE and FBI for such bullshit reasons is a Rubicon crossing moment. not the last, but a major one.
Jessica Kant@jessdkant.bsky.social · last yr.This brings the inevitable problem that the sitting judge he just arrested has to go in front of another judge now. What that judge does in response to such a blatant abuse of power will low-key decide the future of the country.
The FBI just arrested a Wisconsin circuit court judge for failing to assist ICE to its satisfaction in their kidnapping of a human being out of court custody and into a death camp. Any attempt to soften the reality of that statement is fascist propaganda.
the culture of lawlessness in silicon valley literally cant be reformed, they are hostile to the basic idea of a nation with laws because they are such special little boys
Jenny Cohn@jennycohn.bsky.social · last yr.Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale RTd this thread, which says Trump shld act fast & “Fire people who can't be fired. Force them to litigate.

The fast food industry is thriving while paying at least $20/hour to every worker in California. They can afford to pay us yearly raises. #FastFoodCouncil
Michael Sainato@msainato.bsky.social · 2y agoFast food workers are fighting for another wage increase in line with California's min wage increase. But the immensely profitable industry is still claiming paying a few dollars above minimum wage is causing job losses and price hikes www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
