More than 300k Black women being pushed out of the labor market while white men gained 365k more jobs is what we mean when we refer to racism as systemic.

Look, I've been saying for a long time now that performative public lying is the hallmark of far right authoritarian parties & regimes

They know they're lying. They know you know they're lying. They know you know they know they're lying. Etc. The performative public lying & the fascism is the point
DHS is arguing members of the Secret Service don't know who a U.S. Senator is, that he didn't identify himself (he does in the tape), lunged towards the Noem (not evident on the tape), and somehow all this necessitated him being hauled away, thrown to the ground and cuffed. x.com/DHSgov/statu...

If you’re a lawyer doing pro bono work for the administration because your firm has promised it, know that this is not a survival driven capitulation. It’s a strategic choice by your leadership. Your decision here is the same as with any other client. This is about what you are willing to defend.

Earlier this year, ProPublica found that the sepsis rate in second-trimester pregnancy loss hospitalizations increased by more than 50% under Texas’ abortion ban.

Here’s how we did our analysis.

Texas Won’t Study How Its Abortion Ban Impacts Women, So We Did

You were taught that educated, single, child-free women are unwanted and pathetic because a woman who is unmanageable through attachment and enraged at the exploitation all around her is a very dangerous thing to an institution that needs to manage and exploit her in order to survive.

Trigger warning: death, family, brassicas.

My niece asked me recently whether I'd like a cabbage on my coffin when I die.

She laughed.

I thought for a moment, then said, yes. Yes I would like a cabbage. And I told her that SHE had to be the one to put it on my coffin.

She stopped laughing.

Please spread the word.
The Church of England needs the data. The situation is not being monitored centrally, & we at WATCH suspect it’s now completely out of control, with review being widely avoided in churches, where the PCC passed a resolution years ago. #synod #ChurchTimes
If your parish/a #ChurchofEngland church/parish you know of has a PCC Resolution relating to women’s ministry, & the Resolution has been reviewed, either during a vacancy or otherwise, please can you reply/message me via Direct Message. I’m collating information on this for WATCH. Thank you.
