yesterday, line 12 of the Mexico City subway collapsed, 23 people have been found dead, 65 people have been hospitalized and there are some that have not yet been found.

this was not an accident, it was a negligence, the authorities had been notified about the conditions of the structure of the subway was located, however, they decided to avoid it and ignore the situation.

and now thanks to them, many people who were just tired of working and trying to get home are missing or even worse, dead. we as mexicans demand a fair trial. because politicians are always absolved of their crimes and the victims of their negligence deserve justice.

here is the link to donate to the Mexican Red Cross for those who have the means to do it.

here is a link to a carrd explains not only this situation, but what’s also happening in the rest of latin america as well.

please donate if possible and use your platform to share as many resources as you can, this post will be updated !! feel free to add on if you have more links to donate or other ways that people can help.

jewish =/= israeli btw

not all jews are israeli and most jews worldwide are abhorred by israel’s actions. there are palestinian jews too. dont turn this into antisemitism (hatred of All jews), make sure it stays anti-Zionism (anti-israel’s colonization of palestine)

truly makes me sick and angry that Africa so far has only been able to vaccinate 1% of the whole continent’s population bc the whole western world is herding vaccines and wont share the patent with poor countries, so much for black lives matter 

[youfitinmypoem]

my fellow EU citizens here’s a link to a petition bc it’s more than time that we suspend the covid vaccine patents so that every country can afford the vaccines!!!!

Well then go back to your countries or stop living off the government and don’t be a bother.

Do you- do you know what indigenous means?

[incarnateirony]

Modern culture is so wild, I can’t tell if bbgirl is a troll, or just another person that willfully ignorant. The line between parody and reality is so thin that Poe’s Law really needs to become some sort of scientific law at this point. It’s about as reliable as concepts like Gravity now.

For the last time :)

It is not a neutral “conflict”. Palestinians don’t have:

an army

police officers littered around the streets fighting off attacking settlers

$3.8B funding from the US

bomb shelters

homes (hello they’re being evicted and bombed?)

immediate access to medical care (settlers are blocking ambulances and throwing grenades)

citizen acknowledgement from the government that supposedly wants to help them

means of defending themselves

the right to properly mourn (a funeral was recently attacked by settlers)

justice

Anyone who chooses to claim neutrality is choosing to claim the side of genocide. Neutral = complicit. The number of Palestinian deaths remains staggering and I promise, the occupying state’s numbers are nothing compared to it. Thousands more deaths and fatalities have occurred to the Palestinian people. When the death toll defers by roughly 9,000, I think it’s safe to say that the situation isn’t neutral.*

I repeat, if you are neutral, you side with genocide.

“People are saying mask-wearing might become a seasonal practice” God I hope so I’m tired of getting breathed on every flu season and honestly they’re kind of fashionable.

[thatdiabolicalfeminist]

As someone with immune system issues, this is the longest in my LIFE I’ve gone without getting sick. I would be so grateful if people keep wearing masks seasonally or at least when you have any symptoms that might conceivably be a transmissible illness. A mild one or two day cold for a healthy person can take me literally a month or more to recover from, so thanks for masking up and not spreading your germs!

[theconcealedweapon]

If you really care about preventing government tyranny, your #1 priority must be making sure criminals have rights.

And that's not a joke or an exaggeration.

If criminals don't have rights, then all the government has to do is find some excuse to label people as criminals, and those people will no longer have rights. It's what literally every tyrannical government in all of history has done.

If you believe that people who break the law should forfeit their rights, you're literally as pro-tyranny as a person can get.

May 13, 2021 - Immigration cops tried to arrest two men in Glasgow, Scotland, on the day of Eid. A huge crowd of locals in the area of Pollokshields, chanting “these are our neighbours, let them go!”, turned up and boxed the police van in for seven hours, withstanding attempts by police to break through the crowd, until the cops were forced to let the two men go.

WHAT A FUCKING RESULT!!!

Peter Brabeck-Letmathe, a former chairman and CEO of Nestlé, called the idea that water is a human right "extreme."

[thinairlynn]

Nestlé is also responsible for hooking up millions of parents in low-income countries with infant formula, handing out samples and tricking them to believe it’s better for the babies, while these families have no means of preparing formula safely, with clean water, or the means to clean their equipment. This resulted in tens of thousands of babies getting sick with diarrhea or getting underfed, because by the time families realized they couldn’t afford it, breastmilk had dried up.

For this reason the WHO called to life the International Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes in 1981.

Guess who is still a violated of this code, 40 years later...

Boycott Nestle.

First night in New York the bartender had served us all night, let us behind the bar, put on fun songs for us, generally been a good laugh

I smugly put the change from my last round in the tip jar because I, an uneducated foreigner, wanted to show him I totally understood you tip bar tenders here

I think between the 3 of us we tipped him $4 for the night

[glassesmcfancyhair]

The book Repast: A History of Dining Out has some excellent facts about the restaurant industry in the US and how this exact phenomenon came to happen (if you guessed ‘does it boil down to capitalistic greed and racism?’ then you are very clever!) Plus it has a bunch of old menus collected by one woman over years, and while that’s not relevant it is neat.

I needed to share some of the quote tweets on the original tweet

So many heartbreaking stories. I implore anyone to go and read the quote tweets and be educated especially those who still believe that this is a “conflict”.

[genuinelyshallow]

Israel bombed Gaza this morning in a way that was not seen since 2008. Even after knowing that the world is condemning them! They are shamelessly making a parade of their violence in our faces! Keep going. Don’t let this go unheard.

35 deaths. 12 of which are children.

[tacofriend]

So this has actually been cited by academics as part of the major draw to online spaces is the fact that just existing in public is reacted to with hostility and punishment. Gretchen McCulloch discussed this is in her book Because Internet, citing research that shows teens and young adults want to be outside! We want to spend time in social places, it’s just that there aren’t any places to exist in public without being charged for it.

When I was homeless as a kid my little brother and I loved to go to the library. We would keep warm in there reading good books all day long. Until residents of the town complained about us “loitering” at the library each day. The library staff then told us we were no longer allowed to stay more than an hour at a time. Imagine seeing two homeless children spending their entire days quietly reading just to keep out of the cold and having a damn problem with it.
