NEW: President Biden commuted the death sentences of most people on the federal death row before exiting office.

President Trump is now effectively looking to retaliate, and to detain those people in the most brutal conditions in the federal system. Bolts reports:

It's not just "consumer smart" it reduces environmental waste, key materials are often mined in slave conditions. The whole tenor of the article is wrong - why is the economy so dependent on us engaging in mass waste?

I promise you, the gaping maw of loneliness & a lack of purpose borne of the mismatch between the self you truly are & the one-size-fits-all mold of patriarchal masculinity will NOT be filled by subjecting a woman to pregnancy, childbirth, and unequal divisions of labor just so you can be a father.

A cop says he “overheard” them planning in a diner. Sounds like some BS to me.

I want a miniseries about the Fugees like the New Edition one on BET. Wyclef and Lauryn were having an affair, the controversy behind the making of Miseducation, Wyclef running for president of Haiti, John Forté arrested for liquid cocaine then pardoned by Bush...at least 10 1-hour episodes.
Pras Michel of the Fugees has been sentenced to 14 years in prison

That the nursing home industry remains so systemically troubled and exploitative with minimal oversight or interest says a lot about the role of elders and disabled people in society. 'Put grandma in a home' to get her out of mind is actually not a very funny joke!
He built a nursing home empire despite state investigations. Now, lawsuits are piling up
California nursing homes affiliated with Shlomo Rechnitz are facing lawsuits alleging that patients were raped, ignored and unnecessarily exposed to COVID-19. His companies deny the allegations.

Exactly, very hard agree. Whenever I see the smug "this isn't our grandparents movement" Takes it's like... my grandfather's generation did *decolonisation*. I bloody wish we were that level ambitious and accomplished!
"We are not our ancestors" is not gonna yet us through this moment. You better wish you were your ancestors who survived the middle passage, chattel slavery, who consistently revolted, who made ways as maroons. We definitely need to connect with Black legacies of survival for now.
