The anti-Semitic mass shooting in Australia will cause a national conversation and policy change. We know this because the 1996 Port Arthur massacre led to significant restrictions on guns.
The shooting at Brown will do nothing. We know this because it occurred on the anniversary of Sandy Hook.

12 dead at a mass shooting at a Hanukkah celebration at Bondi Beach.💔

A 43-year-old father of two, Ahmed al Ahmed, snuck up & tackled a gunman to disarm him. Ahmed was shot twice.

Both Jewish & Muslim faiths teach that “to save one life is to save all humanity.” Let us hold fast to our humanity.❤️

Sometimes I think white peoples obsession with rewhitening media is a form of self-soothing, like sucking your thumb. if all the lantern jawed manly white men and submissive blonde thin women return, things will be okay again and the world won’t be so scary again.
Sometimes it’s just racism.
Hiring a Black woman: “identity politics”

Hiring a white guy for a job that has been held disproportionately by white guys, because he is a white guy: “subverting” identity politics!

(The author of this sentence is Dylan Byers; you will not be surprised to learn that he is a white guy.)

ACA tax credit is not the same thing as HSAs. Republicans yet again are trying to screw over the American people.

I don't see why the University of Oklahoma should, under its current administration, continue to enjoy accreditation by the Higher Learning Commission.
“The latest educator removed from the classroom allegedly told students they would be excused for attending a Friday protest in support of a transgender instructor who was suspended for accurately grading a paper.”

Another University of Oklahoma instructor suspended in biblical psychology paper grading controversy
The university is investigating whether the second instructor engaged in "viewpoint discrimination."

Is UPS giving SNL money?

Weird it has come up so much recently... even their sketch with Melissa McCarthy the end of the joke was that USPS takes all the bad workers...

Feels like SNL's writer room is working really hard to cater to rich white people.

Used to work for a tech community org that got a lot of money from Microsoft. Last year the org internally said we were going to have to remove things like disenfranchised and underserved communities from our reports back to Microsoft.

Religion note: Remember that pastor who was arrested protesting an ICE detention facility outside Chicago recently? The one who was photographed on the ground as officers arrested him?

That's Rev. Michael Woolf, and this is his church.

RFK Jr: "Two weeks ago we ended, under your leadership, a twenty year war on women".

Three out of five men in this shot have been accused of sexual misconduct, harassment or abusive behaviour towards women. A fourth signed into law a near-total abortion ban in his state as governor.

When I talk to my students about law and resistance, I talk about how people tend to think in terms of whether they would’ve acted in 1942, but that they should instead ask themselves what they would’ve done in 1933.
“I think we have to be careful with the Nazi comparisons” people are always waiting until we are five minutes until the Holocaust and then they’re like well it’s only ethnic cleansing not a Holocaust
Is this clear enough or are we still doing that whole thing where we pretend it’s about “crime”?

Turning Point is saying this student was failed for "citing the Bible." In case anyone is wondering you can cite religious texts and there's still a method to those citations.

Writing "He said xyz" is not a citation...

*essay writer uses no citations and says they believe in bullying and their classmates are demons*

TA: hey this psych paper did not answer any part of the assignment, doesn't have proper citations, and needlessly attacked your classmates.

Turning Point: this is discrimination!

I regret every joke I’ve made about how our elected officials were so old they didn’t know how to use a computer. I would give anything for another administration that doesn’t know how to use a computer

It rocks that it took the White House a year to figure out that driving up people’s healthcare spending for no reason by roughly 18million percent would be something they’d have to address politically

This is so insidious.
Exxon is using the First Amendment to shield itself from scrutiny and regulation, experts say.

The oil giant & others have also claimed that lawsuits across the country accusing them of misleading the public about climate change violate their free speech rights.

Exxon uses free speech argument to fight climate laws
It’s not the first time the oil giant has tried to ward off accountability using the First Amendment.

Wondering how people think Jimmy's non-profit balances the ethics (and impact) of building a temporary theme park in a country known for forced labor and slavery?
