I've considered making a youtube channel discussing politics with a heavy emphasis on organizing unions. I'm extremely proud of my achievements as a part of a successful union campaign, and I want to share what I've learned, give folks some of my war stories, and teach people the political and practical necessities to organizing. The reason I haven't is because I feel like I would get entirely drowned out in the political youtube space
Such a good movie
The difference is that this was a significant piece of bone, over an inch long. Bone chips are one thing, whole pieces of bone is another thing entirely.
Biden dropped out of the race and Kamala announced her bid for DNC nominee as presidential candidate, which is seeming to be very likely. The meme is pointing out how that since she's turned into a potential candidate, a lot of positive news about her background has come up. The joke is playing into this narrative. It's saying that on top of all the real policy she's interested in making, she's also going to mandate the corporation Taco Bell to provide a popular menu item that has been removed.
Add 2 seats to the bench, and then add 13 total judges. 11 of 22 judges are selected at random to determine the case. The non voting judge opinion becomes part of the case law, as well as an intercollegiate constitutional scholar opinion
Incarcerated labor organizers are god damn heroes. Every barrier to educational information in prison means one less informed slave.
Brazilian people called it the exclusion games for a reason.
It makes perfect sense when you realize that Trump is a symbol to international fascists. Let's not forget that after 2016 the world shifted significantly to the right, and had normalized fascist rhetoric to 30% of the population in one of the largest nations in the world

Oh yea I agree with you there. I'm imagining combining techniques like wind catchers with terracotta cooling, something that would likely only arise from our modern understanding

Taken from a Press Release by the group:
LONDON, 1 July 2024—Two young trans activists scaled the NHS England’s London headquarters at 133–135 Waterloo Road in London on Friday to stage a protest and have remained there ever since. The group, now made up of seven young protesters, all 18 or under, has one simple message: Trans Kids Deserve Better: we are not pawns for your politics.
The powerful direct action has been organised by the “Trans Kids Deserve Better” network, which is calling for: access to gender affirming healthcare for trans children and young people, protection from discrimination and disrespect in their daily lives and the right to be heard in all decisions that affect them.
Their protest comes in the wake of the government using emergency powers to ban all access to puberty blockers in the UK, a move that was supported by Labour’s Wes Streeting, likely to be the next Secretary of State for Health. It also comes in the context of a General Election campaign where trans people and trans youth have been used as ‘culture war’ talking points, but not allowed to speak for themselves.
“We are staging this protest to remind politicians and voters that we’re real kids, not just political talking points. We may not have a vote, but it is our lives that are at stake,” said one of the activists staging the protest. “Gender-affirming healthcare is a matter of life and death for us, and we hope that our actions will bring awareness to this fact and encourage others to fight for the healthcare and dignity that we are so shamefully denied.”

Because conservatives believe that the class hierarchy is ordained by God, and assisting people at the bottom of the hierarchy is akin to defying God's will by raising their position on the hierarchy. People at the top of the hierarchy similarly deserve to be there, so things like wealth distribution is a similar crime against God. When bad things happen to the people on the top, conservatives believe that everything in our power must be done to prevent their place on the hierarchy from slipping.
