This is such a huge deal. Incarcerated people who keep their ties to their families and communities do much better when they're released. Really these calls should be functionally free, but getting to 1/10 of these extractive and exploitative charges is a big win.

The FCC just announced that it has voted to cap phone & video call rates for incarcerated people. The cost of a 15-minute phone call will drop to $0.90 from as much as $11.35 in large jails and, in small jails, to $1.35 from $12.10. www.fcc.gov/document/fcc...

Every rapist has women who will defend him because he didn’t personally rape them.

For all the people who think that it's Christianity that will make America a better place, please understand that there's an inherent goodness in human beings who want to be treated with fairness and kindness themselves. THAT is what keeps our democratic system working toward "a more perfect union."

Two giraffes play-fighting. Giraffes fight by using their heads as sledgehammers to smash each other in the sides. These two were trying out their moves in slow-motion and the result was a lovely, goofy, balletic dance. 📷 Masai Mara

I really wished people grasped that plastic isn't just a waste issue, it's an oil issue. Plastic comes from fossil fuels, so it's a greenhouse gas issue. People who live down wind of cracker plants that make plastics are subject to incredible exposure to toxic chemicals./ 1

Mostly agree except on reflection I feel like the three-day combo of the shooting, the Cannon decision, and the Vance pick was a powerful reminder of how miserable and exhausting it was to live with one goddamn thing after another when this guy had the spotlight for four straight years

I think Trump getting shot and being photographed with a defiant fist in the air, bloodied and unbowed, will actually lead to zero changed votes. He might be the only person in the universe that would be true of.

General reminder that when the wrestlers in the WWF/E tried to unionize, they made the mistake of including Hogan in the discussion. He ran straight to Vince McMahon's office and ratted them out.

With Covid cases on a dramatic rise right now, and the group’s attitude toward uhhh vaccines, masking, and social distancing, it just occurred to me that there’s a genuine possibility the RNC was a super spreader event
