ProPublica examined months of Fox News’ coverage and reviewed over 700 videos posted on social media.

The network used five-year-old footage, mislabeled other dates and implied footage from elsewhere was in Portland.

@theguardian.com @apnews.com y’all covering this? be pretty cool if you did.
The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

Washington State and the Seattle region are doing way more to prepare for 5 weeks of World Cup than Medicaid cuts and National Guard deployment.

You will ask yourself—does anything matter? You will wonder if the protests mean anything, if resistance means anything.
It does. They do. I know how it feels, but don’t give up. It took a decade to oust Nazis. Many, many decades to end slavery. Resistance is long and difficult. But it is the way.

There’s a degree of financial privilege one has by virtue of being non disabled.

The ability to work, to not have to spend hundreds of dollars on medical supplies… it all adds up.

When you’re disabled the system forces you to remain below the poverty line, which just makes a person sicker.

Even accepting the premise that AI produces useful writing (which no one should), using AI in education is like using a forklift at the gym. The weights do not actually need to be moved from place to place. That is not the work. The work is what happens within you.

took grandma to joann’s today for an outing (dementia). she started to wander away from the register so i asked her to please stop and wait.

she deadass turns around, squints at me and says, “who do you think you are?”.

i’m still not sure if she was being sassy or just fishing for information.

I’ve never seen this clip before. I’ve also never pondered what she poses. Getting a group of Black women to burn a bus full of white children?

You couldn’t do it. And that’s a damning indictment of white womanhood.

I don’t know how anyone who witnessed the American response to a pandemic could possibly think that our citizens would be willing to accept higher prices “for ‘merica”.

Disability is not a moral failing. It can’t be prevented with healthy living, prayer, or wellness culture.

It’s a natural part of life. If you live long enough, you will more than likely experience disability.

We should all be fighting for better social supports, inclusion and accommodation.
