Dude when they are actually being silenced though ??? Fuck dude can we appreciate having a president that at least fucking pretends to respect different opinions?

Don't stop being critical and always push for better. But damn please do not forget the drastic difference between this peaceful rhetoric vs having your president declare citizens unpatriotic or an enemy, liars, or whatever for disagreeing with him.

I went to the mall today and it felt like the early 2000s again

Look I know it is barely on topic but that shit was so wild I had to

Right? The headline doesn't even name the representative that was the target of, and accused her of, racism. Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas.

Thanks, I missed that!

Shhhh us millenials are getting up there in years we don't wanna admit we are becoming our parents

They don't want to show he is stupid enough to do the same fucking thing he was already impeached for

THEY ARE WOMEN'S HEALTH CLINICS NOT ABORTION CLINICS

In September, Handy’s attorneys said they wanted to appeal her conviction to the Supreme Court and try to reverse the FACE Act. “Since the Dobbs decision that reversed Roe, there’s a very serious question about whether the federal government has any further interest in the abortion issue,” lawyer Martin Cannon of the right-wing Thomas More Society, told the Washington Examiner, “whether there’s any federal interest at stake that has to be protected under federal law, as opposed to just having the states enforce their own laws about trespass and disorderly conduct or even state FACE-like statutes.”

My stomach dropped reading this. Because of course this is next. It's going to be sneaky and small especially if this isn't an issue you are particularly sensitive to, but it is going to continue to grow. Roe was a massive blow. These are the aftershocks for the next one.

And you have to commute an hour because you won't be able to afford rent where the jobs are.

This is the most gen z vibe

I fucking hate Ross. He's the worst.

Ooooh wow thank you for that. An arbitrary burden on parents, that's rich.

Oh sure sure. I'm saying this JUDGE may face repercussions.

Trump ? Idk I'm hanging on a prayer as the song says.

The work included sanitizing dangerous equipment like head splitters, jaw pullers and meat bandsaws in hazardous conditions where animals are killed and rendered.

One 14-year-old was severely injured while cleaning the drumstick packing line belt at the plant in Virginia, the investigation alleged.

This is not just bad hours, it is dangerous working conditions. Putting a group that is characterized as having extremely poor risk assessment skills , struggle to even really understand consequences of actions, and making them work with heavy machinery that is extremely dangerous to life and limb. THAT is egregious neglect of child labor laws.

The labor department has called attention to a growing list of child labor violations across the country, including the fatal mangling of a 16-year-old working at a Mississippi poultry plant, the death of a 16-year-old after an accident at a sawmill in Wisconsin, and last year’s report of more than 100 children illegally employed by Packers Sanitation Services Inc, or PSSI, across 13 meatpacking plants. PSSI paid over $1.5m in civil penalties.

The labor department’s latest statistics indicate the number of children being employed illegally in the US has increased 88% since 2019.

Wtf sorry what????? This is a growing problem in America HOW, WHY???

I tend to always read these, both when I sign up and when there are changes. Idk if I ever felt that it changed significantly at all from what I expected originally. They are "updated" annually and when a new law passes so usually it is no change or something about the new law. Basically usually if you consented to the original privacy policy, updates are unlikely to have anything surprising and new to change your mind. I guess unless it went from none to some/a lot of shared data!

I want the wear a helmet vibe.

Just because things that should have happened and didn't, doesn't mean this time it won't. This judge may face repercussions. It may not be any that impact the trump case though

Self reflection is important! It is good to ASK yourself these questions, and ask others even. It is not good to ruminate on the questions or doubt yourself because of lack of confidence. And if your answer is always that you were wrong... idk maybe seek therapy. Sounds like a trait of a chronic asshole or a chronic doormat.

Have you spent your entire life raised to put more weight in others' comfort, opinions, achievements than your own?

It's REALLY easy to gaslight someone. Congratulations, you're not a predator who seeks out/recognizes these qualities in someone for you to take advantage of.

It IS common. It exists in many forms of abusive relationships. The fucking problem is that the internet is stupid as fuck and doesn't understand what gaslighting is. If you start to question your intelligence, memory, etc because your partner is always contradicting you, just them, yeah that's gaslighting. Disagreeing or the person is being a jerk and saying those lines doesn't mean "you're being gaslit" it's a process and state of mind and being. You can be gaslit to believe your father never spent months painting himself blue trying to get into the blue man group, but that's if you are convinced! Someone telling you that your dad never blue himself trying to convince you does NOT mean you were gaslit.

Also lying isn't gaslighting. The point is someone questioning or changing their reality.

Sorry for the rant. I'm very passionate about abuse awareness and can't self edit so well.

You know what they say.. Don't stick your finger in crazy
