Cops, who at the same time will talk about the Jewish problem, but also cannot help but hate anyone with skin darker than purest ivory.

Any opportunity to cause harm and the boys in blue will be there.

I do feel class rage building again after feeling very defeated for the last couple of years.

Kinda ready to help force some heads into guillotines.

I do feel a lot of this is because Youtube/TikTok has made talking about class solidarity, unions, and such both a lot easier to do and a lot easier to get away with. I'm finding a lot of anti-capitalist talk even in stuff not related to politics and psychology now. Like, even just random gaming youtube stuff.

Minnesota’s free school meals push driving big jump in breakfasts

State leaders say they were surprised by the higher-than-expected demand for meals and that the new effort is making a significant difference for students. DFL lawmakers are looking to spend more.

It amazes me that some people are still against programs like this, even when the benefits are so obvious.

“This is the hill I will die on. If we need to find a little more money to pay for these, we will,” Walz told reporters. “We will budget for a 37 percent increase next year that we got out of this and make it work. This is money saved in the long run.”

Fridley teachers said the program has had a profound impact in the classroom. Rather than coming to class hungry and unfocused, students can count on meals when they arrive and spend time chowing down and getting ready to learn.

“Not only are my students able to come to class and learn, but they’re able to then access higher thinking, they’re able to come to school and not have to worry about where their next meal is coming from, said sixth grade teacher Jessica Rifley. “They’re able to focus on being a child and learning and that is really what we’re here to do.”

" The breathless speech, the incongruent facial movements and smiles. The cadence of condescension. I am better than you, and here are the ways. I have children. They are perfect. I have a marriage. It is perfect. I am pretty and well-educated. I am a Christian—I am god fearing and I prove it by holding hands with my family and praying for the rest of you. I am better than you. "

Uh, WTF?


Boeing whistleblower found dead in US

"In the days before his death, he had been giving evidence in a whistleblower lawsuit against the company."
...
"It said the 62-year-old had died from a 'self-inflicted' wound on 9 March and police were investigating."

....

"In 2019, Mr Barnett told the BBC that under-pressure workers had been deliberately fitting sub-standard parts to aircraft on the production line. He also said he had uncovered serious problems with oxygen systems, which could mean one in four breathing masks would not work in an emergency."

--

It seems like a pretty reasonable assumption that Boeing killed this guy, one way or another.
