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?

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 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.

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.

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.

Stupid economy-destroying pissing game aside, I wonder if this bullshit will be a net positive for the environment. Fewer rare minerals mined, fewer gas/coal-sucking boats making the trip across the ocean full of single-use plastic products and fast fashion, etc.

Society will just reorganize to provide. There are a ton of bullshit jobs out there that don’t need to be filled. The higher pay (specifically designed to be high to attract workers) will attract people to work the homes.

Nah, tax the billionaires to bring money back to the working class and to fund the nursing homes. There are enough resources to support an elderly population, it’s all just being hoarded by assholes.

I assume “grown”—or “born and raised—in America.

AKA: US citizens.

Government research money and other grants aside, if the government stops giving FAFSA money to a college, a massive source of the college’s income stream halts, preventing them from paying employees and keeping the lights on, and preventing a vast majority of students from stepping foot on campus.

That being said, if the college can convince donors to reorganize endowment money in order to tell Trump to go fuck himself, I support that college 💯

Because that worked so well before.
