Why is it that everyone is all about prison abolition until the cell walls are padded?

Thinking today how homelessness runs through this story, through Epstein's (Virginia Guiffre had been homeless before meeting him), and even through Gaiman's (his nanny was sleeping on the beach when Palmer recruited her, and he used threats of homelessness against another victim).

And one of the first survivors to step forward to try to stop Epstein? A trans woman, who was promptly mocked and villified by the New York Post, New York Magazine, the courts and law enforcement.

hasn't been enough reporting on his creepy science funding, tbh.
The Epstein stuff is always so amazing to me because it's like "yes he was a sex criminal but if you can get past that, he was also an avowed eugenicist"

I think it’s telling of a lot of things that the discourse and general conspiracism around Epstein ignores that his victims have on the record accused a not insignificant number of powerful people of sexually abusing them

This is a yikes too. He gets dogwalked by Susan Collins even though Generic Dem has a 9 pt margin.
What I find funny is that the median Maine voter sees his tattoo and comments about sexual assault as a non-starter but we had how many people defending that shit here on Bluesky?

This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months"
China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.

My favorite thing to do when sales people come to the door is insist I'm just the lady of the house and can make no decisions myself and my husband is sleeping for his manly shift work job and doesn't appreciate being woken up by the door bell.

I really feel for trans women who have to fly regularly because last time I flew they acted like the cloth pad I was wearing was a bomb. Groped all over me right in the TSA line and acted like I was from the 16th century when I was explaining it to them. What happens if you fly with a cup?

This is the facility that I and many others have been protesting. We’ve been hit, thrown, gassed, and shot with pepper bullets but none of that holds a candle to what is being done to people *in* the actual facility.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

I don’t think I ate a single thing that didn’t come out of a can or box until I declared myself a vegetarian at 13 and started cooking all my own food.
A friend showed me this screenshot and I started cackling, I was staining my tongue three different colors with OtterPops in 1998 are you fucking kidding me

With SNAP/EBT cuts looming I highly recommend downloading this app! Basically restaurants and other food businesses will have available bags of random food they don’t wanna waste for ppl to buy for hella cheap! This has saved me sooooo many times when I only have $5 and need some food.
