In the wake of the shooting, the immediate aftermath, a lot of people suddenly got the health care they'd been denied. It's true that they didn't change long term, but for a little while, they did.
It is so horrible to know that these people need to be actually afraid or they'll continue to hurt people.
There were two meeting rooms on the email! (/silly joke)
But don't they do mass firings by text and just locking you out of your machine these days? The US Aid workers were left stranded for a while— not sure if they got help getting back or just got abandoned and had to get friends and family to pitch in for flights home...
Who's intimidated by antifa? I swear the right is full of frightened infants.

Sure, sure. I'll believe it when they actually start doing something to fight him.
At least this indicates the missing people from Alligator Alcatraz are alive. And isn't that a sentence I would very much like to never, ever say again.

Climate catastrophe is coming for us, and with that, we have the rise of unrest in areas that are becoming more food insecure and/or are being disastered out, creating climate refugees. We've got an increase in bellicosity from rich powers trying to stake out claims while they still have time, and the billionaires are all building expensive bunkers...
I'm pretty sure the old always say the young hate the country.
"Get off my lawn!" "Those youths with their [insert sexual trend here] are destroying the country." "Help, I've fallen and I can't get up!" "Those young people hate the country!" "It's Patrick, he just got life insurance."
The fact that no one seems to be able to definitively answer that question makes the policy truly awful.
I thought I was clicking through to a satire site. Da fuq is this.
“You don’t need a university degree to xyz!” Okay but you need one to teach university.
Yeah, last I checked, the US has elected school boards that decide what books to allow in libraries. Our school boards used to have tax levying power, so electing them was important, but now? I'm not sure they do much now other than draw salaries and give parents a place to complain, and a proper ombudsman could do that.
