He allegedly said "he needed help transferring data from a thumb drive “to his personal computer so that he could ‘sanitize’ the data before using it at [the company.] ... [and] that he expected to receive a presidential pardon ... ." www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Also a very good point!
And of course the whole idea about womens labor never being counted as real labor, smh.
So many of yalls grandmas kept those homes going with their "not real job" jobs, smh
This whole thing is like the pieces about "how I became debt free by 26" and its literally just "my parents paid my 90% of my tuition and let me live in their condo rent free for 5 years"
"Everyone could afford to live on 1 income!" Yeah, if you already came from generational wealth 🙄
Recent immigrants in underpaid factory jobs
Black folks stuck in jim crow and share cropping situations
All the strikes led by rail workers, steel workers, teachers, the scripto strike
Were those people all living fine on 1 income? 🤔
The most fascinating thing about this take isn't even the historical revisionism, its the cognitive dissonance.
Presumably this is about the 1950s-1960s as portrayed in sitcoms
But that narrative excludes basically anyone who wasn't already upper middle class in the suburbs
Renfer is an attorney for the DOJ btw
Sadly, this is absolutely necessary and I welcome it for at least 2 reasons: Books are personal, about sharing experience & exploring ideas - if you’ve read my books, you’ve met me. And a human author is *accountable* for what they/we write: we take responsibility & influences/money are traceable.
Trump has now conducted 42 boat strikes, killing nearly 160 people.
Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.
He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.
This is a danger to us all.
New for @theverge.com: i wrote about how Kansas' trans ID law and the "age verification" systems popping up everywhere tie into larger efforts to force trans people to out themselves both IRL and online
It's telling af who uses the term and when
Some people *ahem* only use it when they talk about how the only thing that matters is class warfare while they ignore a lot of documented history
Its extra fun when someone says this to you and you're Black and tue women in your family were quite literally slaves
Oh. 👀
Wtf
This is exactly right.
Age verification / online ID check legislation literally forces companies to collect MORE data on children (and everyone else) not less.
We desperately need privacy, antitrust, and algorithmic justice legislation.
Not censorship bills like KOSA and expanded surveillance.
This puts me at 10 people released. I filed my 1st habeas petition 29 days ago. I am an incredibly small-time, nobody lawyer who knew nothing about immigration law the day I submitted that case. I barely know any more today. I had never sued the federal government and now I've beaten them 10 times.
They’re literally pushing out Black women to make sure they can try to permanently staff the federal government with white supremacists.
Soon there won’t be any clean air or water. Soon you won’t be able to grow food, to hear the birds sing, to see bugs, to see animals. I hate these fucks so much I HATE THEM FOR STEALING WHAT BELONGS TO ALL OF US AND DOING DO WITHOUT A SINGLE FUCK!!!!
Neither can menopausal women you fucking TERF freak.
Consensual sexual pleasure is a radical, political act under fascism.
50% of all revenue in my hometown is now obligated to the police. As crime drops to historic lows, even in places with fewer cops.
They're also objectively wrong on several parts; and "biological rights" isn't a thing, it was never ever a thing.
Just an excuse to hurl bigotry around, while whining about people blocking them.
Me, just waiting for menopause, so I can stop with this whole being a woman nonsense
It really bothers me that about 50% of the population can't read or comprehend above a 6th grade level, but our lawmakers use legalese and very expensive words when writing & passing legislation
Many People who want to be informed aren't actually capable of even reading potential legislation
i am asking yet again how it is legal for a company to send me a letter saying "sorry somebody stole all your personal information from us and now they have all of your personal information. sucks to be you! bye!" and then they receive no consequences and it happens again a week later
Judging from the prose, the Pentagon appears to be using AI to announce the death of soldiers. If it’s not AI, it’s a person who simply does not care.
I would argue they knew exactly what they were doing, which was deliberately sabotaging needed public works programs by offering snake oil they never had any intention of delivering.
Maine - Here is your alternative to Platner.
Iranian hackers threatening to hack into the top 3 credit bureaus and wiping Americans debt… and I just wanna know who I gotta speak to in order to expedite this.
Absolutely this.
White suburbs were created to shield white populations from the realities of the system they prop up.
This is why, among many other things, if you adopt a position anywhere to the left of Bill Clinton in suburbia you are automatically labeled a radical.
