Retro & Indie game enthusiast, tired of corporations & politicians destroying everything I hold dear. Corporations aren't people; they can't be jailed. Politicians taking money from corporate should be jailed. Healthcare is a right. #CovidIsNotOver 🇦🇺

Hot take.

After "The great surrender" to rampant SARS-CoV-2 (and others), all airplane companies, and cruise ships operators should be directly billed for all medical expenses and sick leave.

They are the ones responsible for delivering disease globally, after all.

Some weirdo on Twitter has been absolutely melting down for like 36 straight hours because I posted:

When this is over, do not forget what ICE did, and what ICE is. And do not make room for them in society. Make sure they know that they are, and will continue to be, reviled and beneath contempt.

It’s the Feds making Portland look like a war zone— not the protesters.

And honestly, these protesters are brilliant. They’re flipping the whole authoritarian cosplay on its ass!

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

Depraved.

He was wrongfully imprisoned for 43 years. Moments after being released, ICE took him

I've just seen some staggering data on how badly infections are affecting urgent care here *now*.

It's hard to comprehend.
It's hard to get your head round it.

You need to see it to believe it.

1/2 A reminder to anyone who was RIFed.

💯 you do NOT deserve this.

Quick tips if you do get a RIF notice:
❌ Do not send a read receipt
❌ Do not respond right away - the union will probably provide language for response
✅ Forward notice to your personal email

Another journalist is forced to the ground and arrested by ICE in Chicago. Her name is Debbie Brockman from WGN-TV.

ICE put a photojournalist in NYC in the hospital.

They’re attacking the press.

They’re attacking immigrants.

They’re attacking citizens.

No one is safe.

What an emblem of the billionaire class—descending on a peaceful city in a private jet on the horn to NYT asking for the place to be invaded by federal authorities because the rent-a-cops you employ for a week to harass a few junkies outside the convention center cost too much.

Mr. Benioff spoke as his annual Dreamforce conference is set to begin Tuesday in downtown San Francisco, bringing 50,000 visitors to the city. He is scheduled to deliver a keynote address about the benefits of "agentic enterprise," a business model in which humans and artificial intelligence bots work together.
Speaking by telephone from his private plane en route to San Francisco, he lamented that he has to pay for nundreds of off-duty law enforcement officers to help patrol the convention area and said that San Francisco needed to "re-fund" the police.
The city never actually "defunded" its police force, and San Francisco's violent crime rates are below those in many other U.S. cities.
But San Francisco has struggled to recruit and keep officers, and it still has problems with lower-level crimes and open-air drug use, especially in neighborhoods like the Tenderloin near City Hall. It has about 1,500 police officers, and Mr. Benioff says it ne → another thousand.

The Judge in this instance somehow ignored the fact that the companies carry out a government function on behalf of govt, and thus cannot be considered private landlords (R v British Gas). The fact the companies are wholly owned by the council cements that.

The pandemic is suprisingly easy to understand.

On one side scientists & doctors standing shoulder to shoulder telling us a simple message:

"Infection bad."

On the other, the conservative's paid actors with bought credentials:

"Infection good."

Conservatives own the media so...
