It's DAY 70 since @hydroottawa workers went on strike for safety, benefits, wages and respect. The company isn't answering our calls to meet. The CEO says he can't give 1% more to support his workers, yet 4 Hydro execs got $750K in BONUSES in 3 years? 👀 It doesn't add up.

And you say: “Don Corleone, do you support this ship/kink?” But you don’t ask with respect. You don’t offer friendship. You don’t even think to rec me fics. Instead you come into my inbox on the day my WIP is to be updated, and you ask me to get involved in your discourse.

If you’re a sexworker, think VERY carefully about joining Threads, because here’s what Mark Zuckerberg did to me: I had a FB account as Mistress Matisse, but FB scraped my legal name from somewhere else and then changed my displayed NAME on my account without notice/consent. Yep.

Don't scroll. Don't even scroll. Scroll past 600 and you're dead. They are fast. Faster than you can believe. Don't turn your back, don't look away, and don't scroll. Good luck.

This is a classic glass cliff situation, in which a failing company hires a woman to clean up messes made by arrogant men. Then she becomes the scapegoat because it's impossible to clean up.

His name is #RalphYarl and I’m sick and tired of this feeling…my heart completely broke when I learned this precious 16-year-old, who accidentally rang the door of the wrong address in an attempt to pick up his siblings, was shot in the head… (1/3)

their stated goal was to turn EVERYTHING THEY DON'T LIKE into Critical Race Theory. And now they're going to ban EVERYTHING THEY DON'T LIKE. There's no way any Women's & Gender Studies course at a public school in Florida has anything to do with Critical Race Theory.
Replying to @jdmortenson
All state colleges and universities must remove Women’s & Gender Studies from the list of available majors and minors. No major or minor can exist if it is deemed to be “derivative” from the “belief system” of “Critical Race Theory”—gee, wonder where that will go. 4/

Every miscarriage will be a crime scene in Texas. REMEMBER: When you go to the hospital and they ask you what you took, YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY A FUCKING THING. Health care workers will snitch on you. I would honestly interact with nurses and doctors as if they're literally cops.
Today, I filed HB 2709 to close the last remaining abortion loophole in Texas. Allowing access to self-induced abortions and protecting the ability of others to coerce women into abortion are some of the least loving things our state can do for mothers and their children. My legislation will ensure that the life of every person, including innocent babies in the womb, will be equally protected by law, and women cannot be preyed upon and pressured into an abortion.

“Are we under attack?” Lmfao no babe we’ve deregulated everything to save rich people money.

This is a brilliant explanation, 🙏🏾 on what’s happened (simply worded chemistry) from ‘science and anonymous’ via Instagram. #Ohio

Our last mayor cheated on his wife *and* used racial slurs *and* smoked crack on video *and* was violently abusive *and* regularly drove after drinking a bottle of vodka *and* was linked to two murders and a prison hit, and didn't resign. Shame is back, baby! Shoutout to shame

"Women get bored with Leonardo DiCaprio about when they hit their mid-20s" is an objectively funnier explanation.

You don’t have to watch the video of #TyreNichols being beaten by police. You don’t have to subject yourself to that trauma. It should not require another video of a Black human being dehumanized for anyone to understand that police brutality is an urgent, devastating issue.
