Was the trick the feds raiding offices of that price-fixing landlord software company in several states? I wonder.

I need everyone to stop with AI. Like I found a cool perfume company and then they started sending emails about how they're going to use AI to design new product and let people design custom product and it is the middle of a fucking heat wave and I am so tired.

Any serious effort to build a functional US welfare state will require the federal government to set up bureaucracies to bypass reactionary state governments for this sort of thing. Seems like we should have learned this lesson after Medicaid expansion a decade ago, and yet, here we are again!

The governors of a dozen Republican-led states — AL, AK, FL, GA, IA, MS, OK, SC, SD, TX, UT, WY — opted out of a new federal food assistance program, leaving about 9.5 million students without the aid this summer

Republican-led states are blocking summer food benefits for hungry familieswww.usatoday.com Money for food is especially tight for families in a dozen states where Republican lawmakers declined to accept federal food assistance.

As the daughter of a Black Vietnam vet who suffered life long pain from a service related injury but was constantly turned away from care by the VA I can’t even bring myself to read this. My father eventually died of a treatable condition at 62 b/c he was sent home to take ibuprofen by a VA doc.

A 2017 internal Veterans Affairs report shows Black veterans were more often denied benefits for PTSD than their white counterparts. The analysis crunched claims data from fiscal year 2011 through 2016. And disparate treatment started after WWI when it was still called shell shock. It continues.

Black veterans were denied VA benefits for PTSD more often than whiteswww.nbcnews.com “Ever since I came back from Vietnam, I knew that I had a problem, but I didn’t know what it was," said one Black veteran.

I get it, everyone's worried and stressed and all that but if you think the solution to that is to Oppression Olympics your way into demanding everyone else accept your fav option for your party or be damned as Evil I can tell you now that not only is it a moral fail but also a tactical disaster

The Black Panther Party learned that sickle cell anemia was a neglected genetic disease affecting mostly people of African descent. Although disease had been known since 1910, it attracted little govt attention and even less funding. So the Panthers set up a screening program. #BlackSky #Disability

"Approximately 1 in 365 African American children are born with sickle cell, according to the CDC.. Tens of thousands of lower-income families with children suffering from sickle cell disease have applied for SSI. But roughly 76% of those applicants had their requests denied between 2015 and 2020."

Thousands of Black children with sickle cell disease struggle to access disability paymentswww.cbsnews.com New data show how one federal safety net program has been out of reach for thousands of children who need it most.

If you're worried about brevity in your writing, don't. It took Project 2025 nine hundred pages to say fourteen words.

As an aside if RPGs want to resemble reality better one thing they need to change is archers should be a strength based class and swordsman should be a dex based class.

also archers and javelin troopers were ripped . we can literally tell who was an english longbow an based on how deformed their shoulders were. it’s like ~110lb of pull strength to fire a longbow some required even more strength

Gen Z "rediscovered" grunge and started walking around in outfits straight out of my high school years so I don't want to hear shit from them quite frankly.

Some Millennials in my timeline are insecure because Gen Zs are telling them their ankle socks age them. I can't stress enough that you don't need to care about what a bunch of 20-somethings think about your clothes, mainly bc you don't have to care about what ANYONE thinks about your clothes.

Possibly I'm just fighty because I'm stepping down Cymbalta again this week but: the number of people refusing to believe Gaiman would ever fuck his own employee on her first day of employment? Y'all are exactly why this surfaced on a blog you're using as a reason to discredit the victims.
