@stephstephking I totally hear you maybe “English” department name could be retired without tears. Though I shudder at substituting w“Writing Technology” , “Content Strategy and Analysis”, “ELA”

@bdeskin this looks cool! Salary seems tight for NYC— would this be alongside you Blake? Wish I were more footloose
@dave by that measure apparently political shootings are also a fact of life

Retoot if you agree the US needs to stop arming Netanyahu to bomb Palestinian civilians.

I want to follow as many people as I can who share this belief in basic human decency and international rule of law. We must stand united for justice and on the right side of history.

I wrote about this issue here: https://www.qasimrashid.com/p/breaking-biden-sent-netanyahu-35b

BREAKING: Biden Sent Netanyahu $3.5B in Arms—Today He Killed 100 More Palestinians

Legacy media and the American people must hold Biden accountable to his words—and VP Kamala Harris can lead the way

Insurance companies charged Michigan’s most expensive car insurance rates in neighborhoods with the most Black residents. https://themarkup.org/premium-penalty/2024/07/18/michigans-fair-and-reasonable-reforms-allowed-car-insurers-to-charge-more-in-black-neighborhoods
Michigan’s “Fair and Reasonable” Reforms Allowed Car Insurers to Charge More in Black Neighborhoods – The Markup

An investigation by The Markup and Outlier Media found lawmakers created loopholes big enough to drive through

This is the most *American* headline

Americans should be terrified of Project 2025. It seeks to strip basic human rights from citizens and turn the country into a fiefdom with no checks and balances.

It shouldn’t matter who the candidate is from the Democratic Party, every American citizen who still wishes to have rights and freedom should not want this plan to materialize in any way and work to defeat anyone in favor of this plan. The goal should be to ensure this doesn’t materialize. Whoever the candidate is, the entire party should hammer the points of that plan.

In any reasonable period, this plan on its own should have been enough to convince voters to vote against it and against everyone in favor of it but we’re living in one hell of an “interesting time” where not only will people refuse to heed warnings, they won’t even believe it after it happens to them.

It’s not just about stopping Trump, it’s stopping the entire engine, caboose, and everything on it from reaching their destination. Failing that, 1984 won’t just be a book and a movie.
