The person who leaked information about Trump’s tax returns got more time than Trump did for fraud

He got more time than almost all insurrectionists received

He got more time than Roger Stone, Paul Manafort, and Charles Kushner for tax evasion and for funneling Russian money to politicians

…Tell me how the system isn’t set up to protect the rich and powerful again?

"A historic new study out of Scotland shows the real-world impact of vaccines against the human papillomavirus: The country has detected no cases of cervical cancer in women born between 1988-1996 who were fully vaccinated against HPV between the ages of 12 and 13."

Vaccines work!

I have never seen young people this radicalized in my life, they won’t forget and most of them will need extensive therapy after watching what they have on social media. I have consulted with a trauma therapist myself and I have all sorts of filters.

#OnThisDay, 29 Jan 1891, Liliʻuokalani is sworn in as Queen of the Hawaiian Kingdom.

She is the first, and only, regnant queen of the country and is deposed in a coup in 1893 that was supported by the US marines arriving.

The Taylor Swift harassment campaign on X is a warning. These same tools are already being used to harass average people across lots of platforms, and the response from tech companies and lawmakers hasn't been nearly good enough https://www.platformer.news/taylor-swift-deepfake-nudes-x/

Because I just had reason to share this on my main account, I'll post it here too. My favorite #RayBradbury short story read by #LeonardNimoy #ThereWillComeSoftRains

For all its flaws, social media is one of the only forums in America where a rich white billionaire can tell an obvious lie, and get dragged by a poor Black woman for it.

There are practically no other forums in US society where this happens. It's the closest thing to "checks and balances" that exist.

Which is probably why some billionaires hate it so much, and want to either control it or destroy it. 🤷🏿‍♂️

so, i don't agree with blanket prohibitions on writers writing outside their own experience. but writers should approach the challenge of writing someone else's perspective with care.

1. read, watch, listen, etc. to the stories written by the people themselves. & not just academics or those with 'ideologically correct' opinions. get a variety of perspectives.

2. study up on topics like discrimination, but try not to make victimhood the characters' 'single story.' 3/ https://youtu.be/D9Ihs241zeg?feature=shared
