An Aboriginal man has been kept in isolation for 500 days in Yatala prison in South Australia. The legal limit for isolation is 15 days.
He was charged with assaulting a prison officer in an act he says was self defence. His Elders are extremely concerned and this torture must end.

When victims of male-perpetrated abuse spoke up, we were told that we were “ruining lives with accusations.”
What does it say that, even with reports that are credibly true or bona fide sexual abuse convictions, a man can still thrive, be elevated professionally, or even become President of the US?

So, uh, Kevin Spacey is getting a lifetime achievement award at Cannes…in case you were concerned about how #MeToo is ruining abusive people’s lives.

Rep. McBridge is amazing (and shouldn't have had to do this)/republicans are like "I can't come to work if I can't just openly hate people there."
🔥 ICYMI: “Thank you, Madam Chair.”
Rep. Sarah Mcbride’s perfect response as Keith Self calls her “Mister McBride” — then adjourns and storms off when Rep. Keating comes to her defense.

Here's what the idiots in the White House utterly fail to comprehend. They and the US came out of that argument weaker. Zelensky came out stronger, with Europe rallying behind Ukraine more than before. They came out looking like petulant idiots; he came out looking like a leader with integrity.

Of the 4000 researchers at NIH, only 20% are tenured. They’re going to fire all the rest as their contracts come up for renewal, absolutely decimating research at the NIH. This is catastrophic, not just for Americans, but for the whole world.

NIH ban on renewing senior scientists adds to assaults on its in-house research
Policy follows firings of tenure-track scientists and suspension of training programs

Trump is expected to declare English the nation's official language. America is an Italian word. California, Colorado, Nevada, Montana, and Florida are Spanish, and a bunch of other states have Indigenous names.

The brilliant AOC upsets a lot of men a lot, and since they have no idea that that's what's going on they subject us to their inanities, and now I am going to close replies so I don't have to hear a bunch of junk.
a stammering Tom Homan on AOC: "She's the dumbest congresswoman ever elected to Congress."

This is why you fight these cowards.
The moment you stand up to them, they crumble.
Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights.
He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.
