The jury agreed that Meta engaged in "unconscionable" trade practices that unfairly took advantage of the vulnerabilities of and inexperience of children. Jurors found there were thousands of violations, each counting separately toward a penalty of $375 million. n.pr/4lRJ2lV

"For the love of God, Montresor!"

what happened to if you have time to lean you have time to clean. or does that only apply to me making $7.25/hr to sell shitty frozen yogurt and not the highly paid murder squad

Ugh I went to try and fix the other thread and broke it. I am still raising for hearing aid batteries. Tinnitus is BAD. I also do not have appropriate glasses. Donations are tax deductible! helphopelive.org/campaign/159... OR Venmo: @ KARRIE-HIGGINS-2 as soon as I can get 'em I will post receipt

I have to come up with ~$500 for meds ... and start the fundraising for the next premium again! I paid this month thx to a generous person (receipt on HHL). Alan has an interview today but that comes with issues as it would require a move (we would need help), but it would have BENEFITS.

[Food intolerances] Just a PSA for folks with egg allergy / #MCAS : There's a new kind of vegan egg whites which are chemically identical to egg whites from chickens If you have an egg allergy, you can still react to them Products made using them can be labelled vegan, but have egg allergens

“We’re trying to get a child out of a jail to do a spelling bee,” Ms. Rachel told me. “I just never thought those words would go together.” Read my story on Ms. Rachel’s new mission to help shut down Dilley and free kids trapped there — starting with two she met over Zoom last week.

Per the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights, the arrest in Oak Park took place by the intersection of North Ave. & Woodbine Ave., very close to IL Senate President Don Harmon's Oak Park office at 6941 W. North Ave. An Oak Park source also says a car was left behind at the scene.

This story is crazy-making. New Braunfels ISD is dramatically under-reporting the # of books removed due to Senate Bill 13 from its schools this year. In fact, this might be one of the biggest acts of censorship we’ve seen. @txfreedomread.bsky.social franklinstrong.substack.com/p/new-braunf...

Chicagoland rapid response groups are reporting at least two more people taken by federal immigration agents today: one person was reportedly taken around 8:40 a.m. in the far Chicago suburb of Naperville, another around 11 a.m. in the collar suburb of Oak Park.

It's a clear and sunny day in Chicago. ICE is out and about, with vehicles sighted across the city and suburbs. Berwyn Cicero Rapid Response just confirmed feds took two people from Cicero shortly after 8am.

Loser shit from these republicans. Stay up to date on this horrible bill.

Happy St. Patrick's Day, New York.

It is a choice to do this on Election Day and a choice to do it during a record cold snap. It is also a choice to do it at all.

Happy St Patrick's Day to the Irish-American tradition that's about solidarity with oppressed peoples and opposition to imperialism, and *NOT* to the part that's about integration into American whiteness via exercises in domineering racism.

YOU CANNOT GRIND THE BONES OF YOUR ENEMIES INTO DUST TOMORROW IF YOU DO NOT TAKE YOUR MEDICATIONS.

threw a football back over the wall into the primary school next door to my usual life-affirming chorus of cheers and thank yous, when one of the kids climbed the wall to peer over and yell exuberantly ‘W in chat!!!!’ and then vanish like a digital ghost

It’s day 104 of the ICE occupation of MN. Today a blizzard gave most of us a brief reprieve from the hyper vigilance. Minnesotans came together for the traditional snowstorm activities of shoveling, snow blowing, and pushing out each other’s stuck cars.

“Wael was Maher’s reason to keep fighting, to comply with every requirement of his immigration case & endure inhumane cruel detention conditions” Maher Tarabishi was Wael’s full time caregiver ICE took him and Wael died 3 months later He never got to say goodbye Now he’s being deported to Jordan

Sinners deserves Best Cinematographer simply for the fact that it's a modern movie where you can tell what's going on during all the night scenes

Big respect. “You lose your country with countless small acts of complicity.”

At least the second *known* case where an immigrant has died after being released from jail, snatched by DHS, and immediately abandoned on the streets. We also know that DHS violates court orders to release Minnesota residents in Texas without their possessions or ID. www.wtae.com/article/sist...

I think about this a lot.

I am lucky to have a wonderful husband and family and a couple of great friendships. I still try to enjoy my life. But I will tell you frankly: Vlad the Impaler could not come up with a more sadistic form of torture than severe Long Covid. It is worth avoiding, and it is worth your attention.

sorry basically the problem of my life is that i internalized and believed a lot of stuff people said about valuing children and loving your neighbor and living in a society at the exact moment that everyone in power decided all of that shit was fake and gay and not a way to make a living

There have been tee shirts with the tagline zero quarter favored by…certain people…for a few years now. Really insidious violations of social contracts have been circulating and making people money for awhile
