Healthcare execs had no problem showing their faces on their websites despite knowing full well that their exploitative practices enabled the preventable deaths of nearly 70,000 Americans ANNUALLY.

But the preventable death of 1 executive and suddenly they're all camera shy and wiping their websites of their own profiles.

How appropriate that to them 1 death of their own is worth more than 70K deaths of the rest of us.

it is like this - every single time

open source your abandonware, dammit.

"Violence could happen to you, too!"

Yeah, thanks, Mr. Rich White Man, I already knew that, and the most likely perpetrator will be someone like you so get the fuck out of my face.

Fanny Hesse (1850-1934) worked unpaid for her husband Walter Hesse in Robert Koch's laboratory. Koch was desperate to find a suitable medium for growing bacterial cultures. Fanny Hesse came up with the idea of using agar, which proved to be an ideal gelling agent. To honour her for introducing agar and revolutionising microbiology, DSMZ researchers named the strain Streptomyces hesseae (DSM 40473) after her.

The centring of puberty blockers in the care of trans youth is actually a compromise position designed to placate cis discomfort.

Desistance rates during this period are so low that it effectively amounts to holding young trans people in limbo for a few years and lying that it's for their benefit.

There's no medical reason that young trans people are unable to begin medical transition in their teenage years.

The roadblock is only a combination of cis anxiety and the erroneous belief that young people lack an understanding of their own identity and the capacity to exercise bodily automomy.

Neoliberal/fascist people in positions of public power never say - Violence isn't the answer - when they give more raises to state mercenaries to buy more weapons of state funded violence & militarized/armored vehicles & to beat up nonviolent citizens exercising their rights to public dissent & peaceful protests.

I'm uninterested in bootlicker responses. I will block those who choose to commit bootlicking offenses on my timeline - on sight.

to be 100% clear i think the assassination was Cool and Good and There Should Be More

I can be trusted around lesbians

Man, imagine if there was something that has the user-friendliness of guix and speed of nix

wild how your claim to fame could be revealing deeply fucked up government secrets for the benefit of the whole world, and the media will still refer to you as a "trans activist"

Listening to the House banter about some "Crucial Communism Education Act" designed to emphasize education on the atrocities of totalitarian communist regimes.

I find myself wondering how different the political impulses would be if communism wasn't constantly conflated with totalitarian forms of government and was more plainly regarded as the system of economics it is more literally defined as.

Like, honestly, totalitarian government is the problem, not a communist economic model. But goddamn the two are inseparable.

Thanks Stalin I guess.

Two thoughts on this: first, it’s interesting that other industries are now profiting off corporations like Walgreens successfully blaming shoplifters for their price gouging & bad practices.

Second, it’s an interesting time for a CEO to get mouthy in public.

It is absolutely appropriate to celebrate the murder of a mass murderer, particularly given that this was likely the only way to stop him from killing people for money.

You can’t use a gun to kill people; that’s barbaric. You have to build a corporate industrial complex that systematically deprives people of their basic human rights through a legal system backed by organized thugs who use a lot of guns to kill a lot of other people. That’s the civilized way.

“How did he know where the CEO was gonna be?” This was like a large public event, all he had to do was pay attention to their corporate press releases.

“Why didn’t the CEO have bodyguards?” It’s NYC. Rich/famous people ride the subway by themselves all the time.

“Why did he expose his face at Starby’s?” Dude, that wasn’t him, the Starby’s guy had a different color backpack and chest pockets on his jacket. Trust me bro I’ve spent a lot of time looking at pixelated photos on the internet
