The end goal of Grok sexual harassment is to make women afraid to be visible. It’s a punishment for daring to exist in a way the perpetrators can’t control. There’s no one solution to this, because the problem isn’t just technological. It’s cultural. It’s misogyny. This is just one expression of it.

While going through my Grandparents' papers I found protest songs & chants, lists of visits to elected officials, and records of donations.
There isn't one "right" way to win the world we want to live in so we have to use every method of power at our disposal to get there.

I’m at Times Square, where an emergency “No War On Venezuela” protest just took to the street. Easily a thousand people here in real-feel 20°F weather.
“No more coups, no more wars, Venezuela’s not yours!”
“No boots on the ground no bombs in the air, U.S. out of everywhere!”

Philadelphia join the protest at City Hall at 2 PM!
It is incumbent on every American of conscience to rise against these actions. And Congress should move to impeach Trump and hold members of his cabinet accountable for these crimes.

YOU: Hi, my name is [NAME]. I’m calling from [ZIP CODE].
YOU: I’m calling [MOC] to demand they condemn the U.S.’s actions in Venezuela tonight.

2. Demand a legal written justification from the Administration,
3. Hold IMMEDIATE House/Senate Foreign Affairs hearings on the the decision-making, legality, and diplomatic risks of the Maduro operation,
4. Demand an immediate classified briefing for the Gang of Eight.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

This is devastating news. The Blocks have been the capitalistic nightmare scenario for stewardship over journalism in Pittsburgh: the Post-Gazette strike broke apart one of the best newsrooms in the business, and now they're shuttering our alt-weekly just a few years after buying it. Awful people.
Well folks, some news. Ownership is folding @pghcitypaper.com. I wish I could say this was more surprising. I'll be on the lookout for new roles while I continue to teach and hopefully find places to publish some stories I haven't finished. In the meantime, I'm all ears for opportunities.

Block Communications has shown repeatedly that they don't actually care about their bottom line more than they do about the communities they operate in.

My mom asked if I could take my dog for a car ride instead of giving her a walk.
I don't know how to explain that my dog isn't trying to get to a specific destination as quickly as possible

A Hampton Inn in Asheville just canceled my family's reservation because our address (incorrectly) showed Asheville—and the hotel bars locals within 50 miles.
When I asked why, they said, "because of our homeless population," adding that most hotels here have similar policies.
This is outrageous.

It was reprehensible when people mocked condom usage at the height of the AIDS pandemic.
It is just as depraved to mock those wearing masks to reduce the spread of airborne viruses today.
Whenever someone takes any kind of step to protect public health, they should be applauded, not mocked.

While cleaning out my grandparents' things, I found notes from my Grandpa tracking his new medications and symptoms. I didn't know he liked to doodle in the margins. These pages look a lot like the ones in my notebooks.
