They also are continuing to create a world where a single income household can’t afford to exist so along with forcing us to be mothers they still expect us to work as long as we aren’t taking one of those high profile jobs from a man

Also, 90h/w being presented as normal is exploitation. More things should be burning over there. Mostly mansions and factories.

When people on my side of the political fence get mad at the suggestion of parenthood, it's not the babies we're objecting to. It's the enforcement. Human beings are not livestock, and cannot be bred like same.

Babies deserve to be wanted. Children deserve to be wanted. Adults deserve to be able to look back on their lives and know that they were a choice, a treasure, not a burden.

I don't know anyone--and I know a lot of very feminist people--anyone who says, in the general, that it's bad for women to become mothers, men to become fathers, people to become parents.

We say it's bad for anyone to be FORCED into those life paths.
How do I know? 1) Common sense. 2) He said the same shit on twitter in 2022, but about women

I’d even be happy with a “members of ICE are clearly not interested in the legal rights of gun owners, therefore we will be speaking to politicians” because y’know.

I’m familiar with the tax code limiting speech issue, lord knows *looks at SFWA* but since the NRA frequently lobbies and rates candidates, I would be a trifle skeptical they couldn’t say anything.

Appears to be a SIG Sauer P320 with a Romeo One reflex sight. Which was the official handgun of ICE until last summer when it was replaced by the Glock 19 after multiple instances of uncommanded discharges (aka accidental firings).
Are we even sure that this was the victim’s gun, or was some ICE guy

Hey, NRA? Gun advocates? Where y’all at?

Minneapolis Police Chief O'Hara: "The video speaks for itself. We have identified this person - 37-year-old, white male, resident of the city. The only interaction that we are aware of with law enforcement has been for traffic tickets and we believe he is a lawfully gun owner with a permit to carry"

People are definitely setting up a barricade of trash cans and this couch, in the middle of the street where ICE is.

"That's my couch," said a woman standing nearby. "It's been on my porch for four years because it won't fit up the stairs. My neighbor will be pleased it's gone now."

1) Doesn’t say he was wielding it, just that he had it.
2) Doesn’t match the video anyway.
3) DHS has lied in exactly this way after shooting someone before.

BREAKING: The Department of Homeland Security releases a statement on the fatal shooting in Minneapolis involving a federal agent. DHS claims the victim “approached U.S. Border Patrol officers with a 9 mm semi-automatic handgun.”

This. I am glad the video exists because it rebuts the lies that will and are happening. But watching it is not necessary and can even make you a less effective person fighting against it, because the moral damage of being helpless to stop it can trigger a "freeze and only scream" kinda response.
You can get details from this thread without watching any video
Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...

Half of pharmacy overhead cost is billing insurance. •screams a lot•
Meh, part of how Cost Plus gets their prices so low is they buy from the absolute bottom tier suppliers and only sell generics, plus they don't bill insurance so they can get by with way less staff (about half of pharmacy overhead cost is the dealing with insurance).

Shopify does this with PII as well, like if you put stuff in a cart and go to the checkout page to find the shipping cost, and out of habit type your email instead of just city/state/zip, that isn’t just going in a cookie. They store it on their end and will email you if you don’t buy the whatever.

This change is because the new owners are operating in a jurisdiction that requires them to disclose it, not because of any change to the app behavior. This change is simply describing what they've been doing all along!
