finally learned the extent you can test the power company before they shut you off. 😬

Don't worry I paid enough to get it back on right before the storm. 🫠

You don’t know your role yet maybe, but we are all finding out just what we have to offer.

In Minneapolis, one man knew immediately what he could offer and said “Bring me your clothing”.

this is why we still have polio at all btw
In Pakistan, the CIA went around door-to-door pretending to be giving polio vaccines, while secretly hunting for Osama bin Laden. The result was that real health care workers were ignored or even killed, and hundreds of people got polio, which had otherwise been nearly eradicated worldwide.
There is no level to which these heartless shit-for-brains won’t stoop to inflict cruelty and suffering.

For people asking “why isn’t there a general strike?” earnestly, and not just to be a judgmental prick
Congress passed the Taft-Hartley Act in 1947 (over Truman's veto) to make general strikes so incredibly difficult to organize that there hasn't been one since.

That there is a general strike happening in a major US city on such short notice is nothing short of a miracle.
National media should really be covering the fact thay every major school, museum, and arts institution in the Twin Cities, and hundreds of local businesses are closed tomorrow to protest federal occupation.

Nothing like this at this scale has happened anywhere in America anytime in living memory.

No studio will ever generate 4 options and be like one of these is perfect. They will generate hundreds/thousands driving up executive indecision and take just as long. The actual problem is not how long artist take, its leadership not knowing exactly what they want. AI will not solve that.

Guardian headline: 'use of ADHD meds has more than tripled!! 😱😭🚨'

Article details: barely anyone who might need the meds has access to them 🤷🏻‍♀️

Looked at holistically access to ADHD meds can reduce Bad Numbers across the board - road accidents, inappropriate prescriptions for other meds, drugs, unemployment, smoking, obesity, self harm, suicidality - even prison/probation. Access to meds is good! And cheap at twice the price!
Child1's GP said there's a perfect correlation between the decline in smoking and the rise in ADHD meds - many people were unknowingly self-medicating with nicotine.

I don't think he was suggesting child1 start smoking, at least I hope not.

Use of ADHD medication in UK more than tripled in 13 years, study finds
UK had highest relative increase of five countries in study, with 20-fold rise in proportion of women over 25 using it

it's never the crazy weird conspiracy theory weapons. they are poisoning you with toxins they are well-documented to have. they are beating you with ordinary sticks and shooting you with ordinary guns

the only conspiracy is how they gained legal immunity to do this
My group was able to recover a spent canister from a green smoke grenade in Minneapolis. We now confirm with physical evidence that it was a green signaling grenade.

Please don't spread rumors about hexachloroethane or nerve agents.

This definitely changes my mentality, I'm taking people who blocked me for what I draw, how well I draw and how disgustingly in-love I am with it as medals of honor; to incite such devastating envy that they have to blot out my existence to have peace away from my prolific obsession with my ship 😏

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.
