What were the Simpsons moments where you laughed so hard you couldn’t breathe? I have two: Mr. Sparkle and Worker and Parasite - literally dying of laughter.

a (white) celeb court watching in pg county (one of the blackest parts of the US) making sure folks getting arrested for nonsense like simple possession or loitering get a fair shot at beating their rap is some of the most high profile anti-racist praxis i’ve seen recently.
Fiona Apple has a story for you. And it’s incredible. Asked me to share. She's become an avid, trained Court Watcher. Her observations helped people jailed pretrial file a civil rights lawsuit. Then came the retaliation. Shut off her access to court. A video story in 8 parts:

just a reminder that at a costco near you, you can get plan b for generally the best in-store retail price available. and by law, costco pharmacy cannot deny non-members access! you can buy from the pharmacy online or in-store regardless of whether you’re a costco member or not!.

what are posts that aren’t load-bearing anywhere but your personal lexicon. like the ones that weren’t really popular but are so enshrined in your mind that you just assume they got hundreds of thousands of likes.

according to a 2020-21 ucsf study of covid-related death certificates in california, for example: line cooks had a 60% increase in excess deaths. they were mostly latino immigrants.

literally anyone who says being a line cook isn’t “skilled labor” would fail pathetically, burning and cutting themselves constantly in their first week or month of lunch/dinner rushes. i’ve done it too. don’t ever tell me it’s not skilled/difficult labor or real work.
@pderevere Line cook isn't exactly skilled labor bub. Because any random person can cook so it's not covid wiping out people. It's people just not wanting those jobs even though they're available.

also the trump admin kept more and more of the immigrant/latino working class in question here out of the country, including its use of title 42, “extreme vetting,” limiting issuance of work visas, ice/cbp raids, etc etc. i just think that’s the real story! sorry, i am a marxist!.

anyway it doesn’t take covid deaths to keep line cooks away from those jobs or late shifts, obviously, but it’s a new, ongoing & very serious one. imagine seeing all your coworkers get sick or die all around you one by one wondering when you’ll be next. terrifying.

it *should* go without saying (i phrased my OP badly) but fiona apple rocks for doing this. courtwatching is good everyone should try it. doing so as a white person with a celeb platform in pg county is some good-ass anti-racism, which is good. it’s good. we claro, twitter?.

if you want a whole podcast of a low-key white woman celeb court watching i recommend @serial s3 where sarah koenig sits in cleveland area courts day in day out, gives you the low down on “furitive movements” the bs racist dog whistle police use to justify arrests.

@StudentsforLife if a womb had a window no one would ever want to get pregnant in the first place.
Fun fact of the day: the reason why pregnant people get ultrasounds and not MRIs, is that in an MRI, this is what a fetus looks like.
