#Threads needs to be regulated in the US to protect the public. The EU gets it, they passed laws to protect the people over corporate profits. If they don't? HUGE fines. https://digbysblog.net/202...

Threads Needs To Be Regulated. Being “Brand Safe” is good, but isn’t enough @[email protected] – Digby's Hullabaloo
Here's my bold statement for 2023: Social media companies in the United States need to be regulated. Before you start agreeing and explain why it'll never happen... you should know Meta didn't launch Threads in the EU. Because of the EU's REGULATION. It would have led to massive NEW fines and..

I'm going to give a warning that this is a heavy topic, so viewer discretion is advised. That said, these are the reasons why we should support the innocence project, and similar because there are people languishing in prison/death row whom are innocent.

BREAKING: Texas AG Ken Paxton IMPEACHED by Texas House, 121-23, for corruption.
This came after Paxton called multiple reps to THREATEN them with "consequences" if they voted for impeachment.
Paxton's fate now goes to TX Senate. He is suspended from office in the meantime.

otherwise the cops will be routed to the situation. There is a better alternative than risking a deadly interaction. Trained behavioral health clinicians, peer counselors & paramedics are the members of the teams and the service is citywide. Street Crisis Response Teams are saving lives in SF❤

If he were white he'd still be alive. This was cold-blooded murder.

Over the wifi and and Old man threatening to mess shit up? If this dude was white, they would have told him to have a drink and calm down with no arrest. But Denying his heart meds equates to murder in my view.

They should call this what it is: a racist murder by the state.

I'm asking myself the exact same question. They need to be held accountable for his murder. This didn't have to happen. They didn't give a damn about him.

We are implementing a new messaging and notification system, and for the next 24 hours, DMs and notifications will be erratic. Please do not open a support ticket regarding this issue; everything will be back to normal by this time tomorrow.

They didn't listen. They didn't give a damn about his health concerns. When our skin is seen as a weapon, we're never disarmed. Dexter Barry's life mattered.

As a programmer, I deployed some updates to a program last night and this morning, when my users logged in, it was a nightmare. I have not had a deployment fail this miserably in years. It took me all day to fix the code. To discover Pudding Boots launch was worse than mine just made my day.

I do. There are some misguided people. Just today our chef said to the staff that the countries education problem falls on Biden and I had to step in and remind them that each state controls their education system and Biden has been president for 2 years. Oh, and the GOP wants to abolish the DOE.

In a fair race? I'd like to think 0 chance.
But when Republicans are running Trojan Horse primary and third party candidates, and controlling state offices that might seek to overturn results?
Take nothing for granted. Remember when Democrats assumed there was no way he could win in 2016?

I remember watching the first season, fascinated, yet feeling absolutely nauseous. The evil and venality of our overlords, pulling our strings, Trump in office and in control, etc. Realizing that maybe it's always been this way? And openly grateful that they are so miserable. Ugh. #Succession

Today would ABSOLUTELY be a good day to donate to help flip the NC legislature blue (or at least break the GOP supermajority):
