stop saying “sorry for party rocking”, instead try “thank you for your allowing me to party rock” or “I appreciate you being patient with me as I party rock, in the house tonight”

We all know the story. One-hundred ten years ago, in 1911, a fire flared up in a scrap bin at the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory in Greenwich Village, New York. One-hundred forty-six workers, mostly Jewish and Italian immigrants, some as young as 14, died that day, as a result of burning to death, smoke inhalation, or jumping out windows to escape.
Many of those deaths were preventable. They might have been able to escape were it not for the fact that the owners of the factory had locked the doors to the stairwell, to prevent workers from taking unauthorized bathroom breaks during the workday.
On Friday, six Amazon workers were killed and many others were injured when the company’s facility in Edwardsville, Illinois, collapsed after being hit by a deadly tornado. Similarly unsafe labor practices may be to blame.
The workers were required to come in and stay there despite the tornado warning. Employees say they were not allowed to have their phones on the floor — for fear they might decrease productivity — which meant they didn’t have any way of staying up to date on incoming disaster or preparing accordingly (Amazon denies this). The facility itself, despite being in an area known for having a high rate of tornados, did not have a basement where workers could take shelter until it passed. The best they could do was to hide in bathrooms.
In light of the fact that these conditions may have contributed to the casualties, Stuart Appelbaum, President of the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU) issued a statement on Saturday (at the time only two workers had been confirmed dead):
Time and time again Amazon puts its bottom line above the lives of its employees. Requiring workers to work through such a major tornado warning event as this was inexcusable. At least two workers will never be going home to their families, and countless others continue to be trapped beneath the rubble of the Amazon warehouse in Edwardsville, Illinois. This is another outrageous example of the company putting profits over the health and safety of their workers, and we cannot stand for this. Amazon cannot continue to be let off the hook for putting hard working people’s lives at risk. Our union will not back down until Amazon is held accountable for these and so many more dangerous labor practices.
It took Amazon founder Jeff Bezos until 9 p.m. on Saturday to address the collapse and the deaths, as he was far too busy posting about his vanity trip to space on Instagram.
One of the Amazon workers killed in the collapse had actually been able to text his girlfriend, letting her know the company was not planning on letting them leave until the tornado was over. He would have had enough time to get home had they allowed him to.

i thought this shit died why isn’t gone yet please stop bringing this up this shit sucks
Shut the fuck up
COVID is slowly becoming a “third world” disease. While first world countries are hoarding vaccines, having doses for populations many times their size, third world countries can’t get any because pharma companies want to sell to the first world countries first. Even then, first world countries will receive them first. While rich countries recover from COVID, they will forget about the pandemic while many other countries live the absolute worst moment of the pandemic without being able to vaccinate their population.
ana-bolism
Watch also when some first world countries finish vaccinating their populations, they will turn to third world countries and “donate” or sell surplus vaccines. People in these countries will go “Oh how sweet! The government is donating vaccines to the poorer countries <3” when it was their hoarding that led to many, many third world citizens dying before they could even get vaccinated in the first place.
african and latin american countries are also pushed by pfizer to give up sovereign assets as part of their vaccine agreement
Yo europeans, sign the fucking petition, get the european commission to lift the patents
This is not a bullshit useless change dot org petition by the way this is an actual thing with legal consequences. If this petition gets to a million signatures, the european commission HAS to examine it.
They need not only a million signatures but to pass thresholds in at least seven member states - which only Belgium has done so so far. Especially if you have Italian, Irish, or Cypriot citizenship, please sign. Sign it in general, but try to circulate if you can to anyone with those nationalities specifically.
theerealcowboy
231,195 / 1,000,000 signatures as of 10/28/21
237,730 / 1,000,000 signatures as of 11/28/21 and the Signatory Deadline(it has to be signed by this date) is January 8th, 2022.
PLEASE sign, especially if you’re from one of the countries that has not reached it’s threshold. (France, Sweden, Greece, Germany, The Netherlands, Austria…basically every country except Italy and Belgium)
Minimum thresholds must be met in at least five more countries in addition to the 1,000,000 signatures requirement.
The countries closest to reaching their minimum threshold are Ireland(89% of required signatures), France(75%), The Netherlands (75%), Spain (69%), and Cyprus (46%). If you or anyone you know have citizenship in these countries, please sign it, encourage them to sign it, and pass it forward.
If the requirements are met, the European Commission will be forced to examine this and take legal action. Real change is a possibility if enough signatures are collected.
Spread this.
From the entry on the above book:
He asks “At what point do we escalate?”,[1]:8 stating that the modern climate movement has remained committed to “absolute non-violence” and avoided property destruction.[1]:22–23 He criticizes what he defines as “moral pacifism” for failing to account for defensive violence[1]:30–32
He states that “property destruction is violence” but that “we must insist on it being different in kind from the violence that hits a human (or an animal) in the face,” distinguishing between violence against property and violence against people, but noting that violence “which hits material conditions necessary for subsistence” is violence against people.[1]:102–103
He quotes The Wretched of the Earth by Frantz Fanon, stating that Fanon wrote that violence “frees the native ‘from his despair and inaction; it makes him fearless and restores his self-respect’.” He concludes that “There has been a time for a Gandhian climate movement; perhaps there might come a time for a Fanonian one. The breaking of fences may one day be seen as a very minor misdemeanour indeed.”[1]:158–161
TL;DR
Property destruction (against oil industry, etc) is violence in self-defense. Because what they are doing, hurting the very environment we need to survive, is a violent attack on us.

what would you do if you saw jeff bezos in real life?
like to murder him in cold blood
reblog to murder him in cold blood
Reminder that this is a cop hating blog. This blog is for cop haters only. If you don’t hate cops, block me and go lick boots somewhere else!
Right so when your house gets broken into or you get kidnapped or assaulted you might as well shut up and be content with it bc you're asking to have that stuff happen to you if you say all cops are bad when you don't even know most of them personally
not only do cops have no legal obligation to protect you when any of those things happen, they are statistically more likely to be the perpetrators of assault, kidnapping, and even theft of property.
Okay, but that's not a reason to hate all cops, because the concept of a police is not inherently bad.
The concept of cops isnt bad, but cops are
The concept of cops in and of itself is bad. Being a cop means you have to enforce unjust laws. They stem from slave catchers.
Anonymous asked:
Why is FriendlyJordies terrible? Not arguing that he isn't, just want to know your thoughts.
So many reasons. He's arrogant, obnoxious, racist, often uses accents as a source of humour, is classist and looks down on poor people, insults Indigenous people's beliefs, he is so blatantly a Labor voter he downplays or ignores any valid criticisms of them, and attacks journalists while relying on them to do the heavy research for him to make a bunch of his content. His attacks against his opponents and needlessly personal, use ad hominem attacks, and he mixes in such unnecessary things like fatphobia when going after people when he could stick to legit criticisms about a person's ideas and behaviour.
People tend to overlook all of that and go "oh but he hates the Liberals, which is good because I hate them too." I don't find that good enough. He's a bully and an incredibly rude person who just so happens to sit on the centre of the political spectrum so uses that like it's a moral high horse that justifies his behaviour.
no but maybe MAYBE this is exactly why one company having a near total monopoly over social media is very fucking bad actually
