This judge had exactly the right reaction to the shameful way nonviolent prisoners are treated in US jails

A woman was denied pants or tampons after being arrested for not completing a diversion course that was part of her sentencing from a shoplifting charge. But see how the judge reacts when she finds out that the prisoner’s humiliating treatment is apparently routine.

This is why it’s so important to vote for your local judges after doing a minimal amount of research. Most people just pick whatever judge is there or has a funny name, but this woman is changing the way prisoners are treated and she was voted in by the county. Always do your research before voting for judges, but don’t discount it as unomportant. You may need someone like her on your side one day.

a society that allows people to starve when there is food has failed. like. that’s it.

People arguing with this saying, “why do people deserve food for free???” is honestly just further proof of the failure.

When i had breast reduction surgery, i got into the OR and got put on this table that looked like a flat crucifix (arms out so they could get to the girls), and i said ‘god, don’t nail me down’

they put the mask on my face and the nurse said ‘no jesus treatment today’

and the last thing i said to her was ‘jesus with some big ass titties’ and then passed out.

I better see EVERYBODY reblogging this

[thestuffedalligator]

The main thing I get from Dylan Hollis cooking old recipes is this:

Recipes from the 1910s and the Great Depression are great, and I suspect it’s because they were made by someone with limited resources. But they found a way to make something good, maybe even something fantastic with those limited resources, and they wanted to write it down and share with their friends so that they could also make something out of saltines and potatoes. Recipes from the 1910s and the Great Depression are written down and shared in love.

The recipes you should fear come from the 1950s and 1960s, which I’m pretty sure are written down and shared as a form of McCarthyism.

[jackironsides]

I strongly suspect that the rise in horrifying recipes in the 50s, 60s and 70s is that this is when recipes were being used as advertising. Whether or not the recipe was tasty or even palatable at all was a secondary concern at best to if it could convince a housewife to buy more Chlorox Brand Lard™️ to try it out.

[dinosaurrainbowstarfish]

Interestingly, there has been a resurgence of that exact phenomenon, which perhaps you’ve seen: viral cooking media Meme recipes of unfamiliar origin? Videos of impossible recipes or trick editing? “Life Hacks”? I bet these will be the Horrifying Sixties Recipes of tomorrow, because they are also made to sell attention rather than to inform.

[thatsnicebutimmarried]

At this point, I would like to remind you all of Ann Reardon, and her youtube channel “How to Cook That” where she not only debunks and explains the trickery behind all those “viral baking hacks” but also provides ways to ACTUALLY make those things where possible, as well as a numberbof other delightful recipes, and often has her willing husband taste test the internet’s culinary monstrosities. She’s the hero we need so 50 years from now another Dylan Hollis won’t destroy his microwave or his face trying to make “ ‘this easy 2 ingredient microwave caramel!!!’ that comes to us from 2021 from the channel ‘5 Minute Crafts’.”

[heywriters]

Reardon is also a vocal advocate against Youtube, Tiktok, and Facebook allowing (and borderline encouraging) dangerous videos to become so viral on their platforms. She frequently cites incidents where people were hospitalized, marred for life, killed, poisoned, or accidentally burnt down their homes attempting to recreate tacky clickbait recipes and crafts.

And, like Dylan Hollis, she too recreates incredibly old recipes (usually 100yrs or more) while adding educational background to the reasons a recipe calls for this or that weird ingredient/technique. She also makes clickbait-like videos herself like "Giant Snickers Bar!" or "Holographic Chocolate!" only when you click you get EXACTLY what was advertised. She WILL show you how to make a Minecraft cake or a giant Kit-Kat or a sweet gift from an old snack package. Because Ann Reardon is a professional, wonderful person who believes the world should be better.

Y'ALL

Billionaire Mark Cuban has launched a war against Big Pharma. Recently, he started an online pharmacy where over 100 lifesaving medications are offered at low costs. He charges a standard 15% markup in an industry that typically sees no less than 100% markup. In just one example, a life saving leukemia drug with a typical retail price of $9,657 is offered by him for a total of $47. Insurance is not accepted due to the fact that it would force him to work with manufacturers requiring certain price points.

[teacupsandtimelords]

Fun Fact! Two Weeks Notice is not a REQUIREMENT in any sense of the word. It’s a nicety. A polite gesture, and only polite for the MANAGEMENT because THEY want time to find someone to replace you. They cannot withhold your last paycheck if you refuse to give two weeks notice, and they cannot force you to work the two weeks. Additionally, they cannot report that to any future employers who call them regarding your work history. In fact, they’re not allowed to comment on your performance AT ALL! Legally they are only allowed to confirm that you were an employee during the dates you list - anything else and they open themselves up to civil lawsuits in which they can be sued for damages for any number of reasons. So fuck Two Weeks Notice. if you work for a fucked company, they deserve to get fucked in return.

[continent-of-wild-endeavor]

If you ever feel bad about not giving two weeks' notice, or like you're being unprofessional/unfair, think about this: If your boss fired you, would they give YOU two weeks' notice? Or would they have you escorted out of the building then and there? Anything they don't owe you, you don't owe them. Fuck 'em.
