Imagine a world where the top priority of the police team (not “force”) was to help and support the people. “Help” includes stopping confirmed bad guys but also includes finding the homeless a safe place to sleep.

Send all police trainees to social work school.

What a world that would be.

AI has made memes incredibly low effort. I miss the days of shoddy photoshop and copy-pasted pixels. The shittiness of the imagery emphasized the sarcasm in a way that I cannot explain.

Why is a victim’s statement being posted on Twitter by the government? Why is the government using Twitter like it’s a legitimate platform?

Yeah, I operate on this assumption entirely. I’m pretty sure there was a book published about this idea in the 80s and it was widely read among political leadership.

I….did not realize they were NOT classified as wildlife. Of course they’re wildlife. You can certainly pen up elk and make profit off of them, but that doesn’t mean they’re the same as cows or chickens.

Edit: also, like, they’re native to this land as wildlife, while cows and other domestics were imported??

I didn’t realize that Coors, the beer, funded the start of the Heritage Foundation.

The beer is shit, but now I know that the entire company is also shit.

I think that it’s similar to the idea that anti-racism needs to start with white people.

White people have the social capital to stay safe while protesting—thus able to further the cause for longer—and the subjugation starts with white people so they have a responsibility to start the movement.

Rich people have the economic capital to stay safe while protesting—thus able to further the cause for longer—and the subjugation originates with rich people so they have a responsibility to start the movement.

I just want to shake conservatives and ask “Why doesn’t your government want you to know things??”

That’s a GOVERNMENT webpage??? What the fuck??

Indeed. The aroma is starting to fill the entire house.

Oh absolutely. I wasn’t even raised on them because my American parents turned down their noses at them. As an adult, however, a coworker introduced me to the brown sugar cinnamon ones…and they happen to be sold at my place of employment, so when I roll out of bed too late to make breakfast….

They are objectively awful, and I experience a mild self-repulsion every time I eat a pack. But the sugar is addicting.

Oh, that’s super fun. I didn’t have poisonous rice on my End of the World bingo card.

This is why we need feminist activism: prevent men from chaining a woman’s ability to pay for food or housing to his access of her reproductive system (in the form of sex or literally reproducing).

Too bad conservative women don’t recognize that.

Oh my god I need one.

Thank you!!

Where can I find the evidence for this? I want to read more about it.

Ugh, you’re so right. I was hoping to find a silver lining and there isn’t one.

quickly hides the wrappers for the pop tarts and candy bar I had for breakfast

Honestly, a nutrient-rich breakfast sounds amazing right now. Obviously, the sugar didn’t satisfy.

Can people give this speech to the rest of the world’s governments as well? Other politicians also need to be told they should be tried for genocide, too.

Okay, so who in the government is responsibility for preventing politicians from going after their political enemies? Who isn’t doing their job right now?

If it’s just the courts, we’re fucked. They’re overworked and legal cases take way too long to stop this. And of course congress is bought and paid for.

So the constitution was built to fail. Got it.
