@historyofpunkrock I've been there quite a few times. :) It is a true punk mecca.
Just don't sit on the furniture.
Qasim Rashid, Esq.It's Women's History Month. Here's the world men have forced on women:
1848: Married women's property act passed
1920: Beating women criminalized
1921: White women get voting rights—Asian women (1952), Native women (1962), Black women (1965), Hispanic women (1975)
1970: No fault divorce legalized
1974: Equal credit opportunity act let women have independent credit
1981: First women on SCOTUS
1993: Marital rape criminalized
2022: Roe v Wade overturned
2023: ERA still not law
Men—we must do better

Today on the first day of Women’s History Month I learned that after no fault divorce was finally legalized in 1970, female suicide rates dropped 20%🤯
The "strong 1950s family unit" that the GOP is nostalgic about ignores record high female suicide, suffocating domestic violence, & zero female financial autonomy.
But maybe that's GOP's goal all along?🤔

Robert ReichWhile you were paying through the nose at the pump in 2022, Big Oil raked it in.
Shell's profits hit ~$40 billion. That's more than double the prior year and the most money the company has ever made in its 115 years of existence.
It's time for a windfall profits tax. Now.

Sadly, this is still happening with the government's response to #COVID.

JenniferplusplusTo be extra clear, homelessness is what makes layoffs effective as a threat and punishment. And in the USA, withholding health care also plays a large part. These are all escalating levels of violence to the same end of making work compulsory so that they can dictate what work you do, when, where, and to whose benefit.
That power to compel and dictate work is what capital is. Money is only a loose proxy for capital, and they will sacrifice enormous amounts of money to retain and expand their power.
