A charter school scam cost Ohioans $600 million. The largest bribery scandal in state history scammed $1.3 billion. Why do I see more shrieking about unproven allegations of possible fraud from certain lawmakers than I ever heard on very real fraud perpetrated on Ohio families?
Babe, I'm just runnin out to Walmart!
Not unlike free speech conservatives think religious freedom is when they can believe what they want and when you can believe what they want.
Will no one stop this maniac who wants to make life easier for people?!?!!
*deep, deep sigh*
the story today is of a profoundly low energy military parade being met with millions of americans in nationwide protests denouncing the dictatorial pretensions of the president
I have a lot to say about the resurgent young men / masculinity discourse but for now will confine myself to:
I wish I knew how to convince teenage boys/young men is how little of the world actually requires or even invites the hypermisogynist "tough guy" aesthetic
To be clear: I have been busy with, well, yeah, but fuck JK Rowling and the anti-trans hate she happily basks in. (And fuck everyone over on this side of the ocean who decided that hating on a minority population like she has was the right approach to feeling better about yourself.)
Someone needs to write a history of the Roman grain dole called Unlimited Breadsticks
watching how quickly all this is happening and thinking back to the senate saying they can't act without permission from the parliamentarian
I remember seeing my friend's vacation photos and food pics. Now I just get non-stop ads of sour candies.
Hunter x Hunter is a fun. Good for escaping.
Black Lives Matter fundamentally broke these peopleβs brains. They couldnβt bear the idea that they might have to tell a different story about this country and thus tell a different story about themselves. They hated it, and now they are using everything they have to never feel that way again.
Your annual reminder that Dr. King believed in guaranteed universal basic income that gave all people a dignified life, guaranteed housing for all, guaranteed access to a high quality education, and said that βno one should be forced to live in poverty while others live in luxury.β
Around 2 a.m. during the 17-hour marathon lame duck session, lawmakers passed H.B. 315, a massive, roughly 450-page omnibus bill. In it was a provision that could cost people money to get access to video from police and jails. Law enforcement could charge people for the "estimated cost" of processing the video β and you would have to pay before the footage is released. Governments could charge up to $75 an hour for work, with a fee cap of $750 per request. Legal experts say this could affect access to video from dash and body cameras, as well as surveillance video from inside jails β which are public records in Ohio. The policy was not public, nor had a hearing, prior to being snuck into the legislation.
Tonight, near midnight, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine signed bill into law to charge public for footage from law enforcement, including body cams

As ever, the loss of something good and useful for Americans is framed as a loss for Democrats β in the mass media, everything becomes just a political football to be kicked back and forth instead of examined for its impact on everyday citizens regardless of political party.
We need to spend way more on adaptation to climate change. None of us can predict the future, but itβs 100% certain that the climate we have today is the best any of us will ever experience. As we continue to emit COβ, the world will become more dangerous and chaotic. We have to prepare for that.
Bernie Sanders: "We are moving rapidly into an oligarchic form of society. Never before in American history have so few people had so much wealth and so much power."
"In Russia, Putin has an oligarchy. We have an oligarchy here, too.
