Even so, they could’ve had the decency to talk to the first responders first and explain the situation. Who are much better suited to access the risks near and around the area. 

“Not the worst thing” if LGBTQ+ people (and any mention of us) are wiped from social media? If it becomes literally illegal to talk about systematic racism or religious discrimination unless it can be 100% locked down to groups that can prove no children can be present or aware of the topic? If the social-media…

He has to put it in escrow before he can appeal, so either he puts up, or shuts up.

I LOVE this, but seriously, when in the living hell will be finally be forced to pay any of these judgements? Is this rotten POS just going to perpetually appeal this? Where is that limit court-wise. Send in vans of agents and start seizing EVERYTHING! And maybe start with Mar-A-Lardo, because that’s his main criminal…

Yeah I’m sure you’re right. Probably when Biden gets re-elected this time he’s gonna totally codify Roe. Then he’ll forgive all student loans and fix trans rights and even give us that covid money we were all promised! Just gotta vote this one more time, just one more vote, and kick him another $25 for his campaign he…

If this commentariat wants Arab-Americans to vote for Biden, perhaps they should put more pressure on Biden for a ceasefire and spend less time complaining about the brown people who won’t do what they want. Biden is hemorrhaging support from non-whites, and the plan seems to still take those voters for granted?…

Might as well inturrupt a bullshit, entirely for show rally for reproductive rights that Biden isn’t going to do a god damn thing to protect anyway.

Going by the numbers I could find, given the birthrate there (~27/1000 people annually) and the population of Gaza (2.1 million) you get roughly 14,000 in at given time that qualify for the more expansive definition of “newborn” (i.e. less than three months old). Given that there were already 14,000 that fit that…

Both parties send all of Crystal’s tax dollars to Ukrainian President Zelenskyy and do nothing to alleviate her credit card debt to help her pay for the updated COVID-19 vaccine inoculation, which is no longer free. That’s what she said.

None of Crystal’s progressive friends in the state of Iowa are voting. America’s two-party system is a fake democracy which offers only senile male perverts as candidates.  That’s what she said.

Maybe Biden should have done a better job earning their vote then.

I fail to see how this means you shouldn’t protest the guy actively helping Israel to bomb Gaza. They are hardly going to be able to protest him in the White House. They have to protest when he is out and about. And the fact is he will always be out an about talking about another important problem. His job is to…

I was at the rally. I took the opportunity to speak to female American graduate student Crystal Jewell. Crystal is convinced there’s no point in voting. American democracy is broken and she won’t waste any more of her time on it.  That’s what she said.

And a vote for Biden is a vote for someone who has enabled genocide. It is a rock and a hard place. I will probably vote for him but it will be with incredible shame and frustration. Voting for him will not bring me joy. It will simultaneously feel like a sacrifice and a selfish act. And that is a terrible feeling to…

No one believes Republicans will care or be better in any way, shape, or form, on the issue.

The vice squeezing Palestinian Americans and their allies — Arab Americans, Muslim Americans, and plain old “regular” Americans who care about innocent human lives — is indescribable right now.

It doesn’t turn people into anything. It just lets people shout out who they are to the world. Assholes are assholes with and without the internet.

The smart option when you see something that annoys you online (like, say, a review of your new book that left you mad at the reviewer) is always, always, always to just not post.

The headline makes it look like the review bombing led to her being dropped, and not her own actions attacking a genuine reviewer.

This author obviously isn’t sincere in her apologies whatsoever. It’s painfully obvious she is just saving face now and taking back her “it was just a joke, learn to take a joke, not that deep” and then -today- proceeds to upload a instagram story 3 hours ago sharing a screenshot of buying a hat which has “it’s not…
