idk the fact that we're in multiple airborne pandemics SHOULD be making able-bodied folks real loudly skeptical of their doctors who arent masking.

If they dont believe the science, what kind of care are you actually getting?

They dont give a fuck what us disabled folk think.

Not to mention authors don't get just ONE purchase. Libraries tend to purchase multiple copies of popular books, they also buy the physical audiobook, and audiobook streaming and ebook rights. Obviously not of EVERY book purchased, but requested/super popular ones they could buy all of these.
Libraries purchase books. When you see a book at the library, it isn’t “free”

the library bought it.

which in turn means that the community bought it.

In other words, library books are not lost sales for authors and publishers; they’re positive sales. Active sales. Those are bought.

i learned very early on as a baby freelancer (like, literally a teenager) that some clients thought that "the computer" actually did all the work and i just knew how to press the right buttons

and that was in the 90s

this is exactly how they conceptualize "AI"

AND that's how it's marketed.

Cuz those stories? Of men eating food wives froze in anticipation of CHILDBIRTH? Of bedrest due to surgery? Of food they cooked to suit their allergies?

So saddened by the news that we have lost Alice Wong. It was an honor to know her and learn from her. May the lessons she shared continue to guide us for years to come.

Fundraising has kept me fed, housed, and on the dean's list through one high-stakes crisis after another.

I NEVER would have made it without y'all and I truly believe anyone willing to put their body and life on the line for midwifery training (for YEARS of no pay) deserves the same. #Blacksky
ALL of my Midwife Sibs been through the wringer but Susannah has had that plus tax and she's kept going. Being single in this process with no partner to help economically makes it so much harder.

She created a fundraiser in July to assist her through the process, can you be her first supporter?

This is, if anything, too charitable to Madison, who at almost every major decision point where his influence was felt during the framing contended for proslavery interests.
Can anyone confirm Heritage’s strange claim that Montpelier has no exhibits on James Madison? And also, the Constitution protected the institution of slavery in several ways, an institution that made Madison’s entire economic existence possible. Madison owned ~100 people and freed none of them.

The hospital (Dallas Regional Medical Center) has turned off all comments on social media. I don't think they've made an official statement yet.

The video is hard to watch. If you've given birth without an epidural, you know that "in the butt" feeling means the baby is coming NOW.
The mother and grandmother want their story shared to expose the mistreatment they endured at the hands of a racist medical staff

The way they handled her son and her is unacceptable

Lacrista Vaughn at dallas regional medical center sadistically ignored a Black american woman in labor whose baby was born 12 minutes later after coming in

She didnt recieve adequate care because of racism of the hospital staff at this location

This is how Black maternal health becomes a thing.

those of us laid off from Teen Vogue were really fortunate to complete our fundraising goal — the laid-off staffers at VIBE deserve the same support, as Black media outlets and journalists continue to be targeted and discriminated against in “austerity” measures
