extremely mad because my relative in American prison has let me know that from now on, instead of being charged once per book or per song and having the files added permanently to his account, he's going to ALSO be charged by the minute to read or listen to music on the tablets that are the only things they're allowed to use.

reminder that paying prisoners (vastly) less than minimum wage is legal in the US because they're defined as an exception to anti-slavery laws.

"Trump accused of running ‘misogynistic administration’ after Bondi dismissal", Guardian

Well thats a crazy thing to say bc it was already incredibly misogynistic before her dismissal

"Pam Bondi the second woman to be fired"

Pam Bondi is a misogynist in a much more meaningful and insidious way

Absolutely no prosecutions or even freezing of assets over Epstein, doing nothing, and they care about the ratio of the people failing everyone?

Shallowness of major media world view is astounding

you ever write code so inefficient you have to secure 80% of the world’s DRAM production

I’m not trans. As far as I know, my kids aren’t at the moment. Nobody in my family is. None of my good friends are. I don’t prescribe medication for gender affirming care. I don’t specifically treat folks for gender dysphoria. So why do I give a fuck?

You don’t punch down. There’s no transgender machine producing trans judiciary and trans politicians and trans PACs to come for my cisgender. There are trans folks being discriminated against, outed, beaten, jailed, and killed. I hate bullies.

“Trump says there’s no money for daycare because we have to fight wars.”

“We’re fighting wars. We can’t take care of daycare,” he said. “It’s not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these individual things.”
