Nudity doesn’t bother me at all. I see nude bodies in my line of work and I don’t attach sex to everything. A body is a body and I wish we could all be more comfortable with that

The charge of “felony murder” allows defendants to be charged with the death of an accomplice, even when the killing was committed by someone else. Between 2009 and 2017, 83 percent of people charged with felony murder in Alabama were Black.

A Friend’s Death to Mourn, and to Serve Time for

An Alabama teen was shot alongside his friend, then prosecuted for his killing. His case highlights a particularly harsh doctrine in American criminal punishment: felony murder.

I know that a lot of people have to turn hobbies into hustles for survival, but we shouldn’t make that the standard expectation to make ends meet. Jobs need to pay more. You deserve to have time to do things simply bring you joy.

Quiet as it’s kept… These kids wanna learn cursive & understand analog clocks. They wanna play CDs, tapes, records, etc. They wanna know what a typewriter feels like. They actually wanna know what your old ass has to do to find information “back in the day”. They don’t envy it but they wanna know

@prisonculture.bsky.social Was reading about June Jordan.

“Her mother suggested that they pray for those people. So Jordan prayed, but she also made a zip gun that could send zinging volleys of rubber bands at the culprits.”
