are people talking about the labor conditions at Taylor Farms yet? like the fact they use enslaved prisoners in their facilities?

are we drawing the connection between worker safety and consumer safety & public health yet?

are people demanding to see the conditions in this place that keeps making us sick? why are the enslaved workers not having the time to use the bathroom or to rest when ill? very few people would shit in front of their coworkers given any choice at all.

On the prisoners point:

Prisoners in the U.S. are part of a hidden workforce linked to hundreds of popular food brands

In a sweeping two-year investigation, The Associated Press found goods linked to prisoners wind up in the supply chains of everything from F

More on the health point:

i dislike the weird jump to blame suicide victims for their suicides and call them selfish. suicide is very frequently in some way a social murder. i think instead of blaming someone who was in such a dark place that they saw no other way out we should maybe be blaming the people who threw gas on the fire, such as those with a lot of power to make that person's life that bad or those who abused them into it. is that really that unreasonable

[decompose1]

not once has being told i was being selfish- or seeing people talk about how selfish suicide is- EVER made me feel less suicidal. it creates shame. it makes me shut down and never want to disclose feeling this way because oh, g-d, doesn't that make me a bad person? oh, g-d, they'll think i'm a monster, they'll think i'm guilt tripping them, they'll think, they'll think, they'll think (....)

and worse still, nearly every time i've been pushed this far- and, indeed, a lot of my mental health problems to begin with- often stem from the idea that i am less important than anyone else. my thoughts, my feelings, my safety, my life are less important. so to hear people essentially say to me, "but how would everyone else feel!?"?? it doesn't help at all. it makes it so much worse. once more, i am not the important one. even at my lowest, i have to be the one to make compromises and consider how everyone else feels. how could that ever help me? how could you say that to someone?

I'm sure there's gonna be plenty more videos of this, but I needed it for my personal treasure collection here. John Waters introducing Iggy Pop at Mosswood Meltdown over the weekend. 🤎

Transcription under the cut.

"Tonight, I’ll still be the oldest person on either stage here. But our headliner is only a year younger. That’s right, compared to me, he’s chicken. But “headliner” is too weak a word for our star attraction. He’s our leader. He’s our monster manimal. Our extreme royalty. A tough bird. A rowdy Gila monster, with a deeper tan than George Hamilton with no sunscreen. He’s in the Rock and Roll Hall of Shame, and my own personal Crybaby Hall of Fame.  "We got his back here tonight too. If he ever goes on life support, we’ll suck out the blood of young people here today and shoot him up with it. Steal him a liver! Rip out a music critic’s heart and transplant it inside him! And then all of us will pogo out of ICU with him to Mosswood Meltdown to watch him stage dive into a coffin, and then hop back out like a scary ghost of Screamin’ Jay Hawkins. And finally, the punk rock rhapsody will begin. The world may end, but our favorite performer will still be snarling and crooning as he descends from a hellhole heaven - nude, rude, ressurect - with a cock rocket in his pocket! "This guy can sing anything. He put the jizz in jazz, takes the garbage out of garage, slams the glam, and open mouth kisses the French *in* French, while reviving old standards. Here’s my favorite: he’s sober, yet he does ads for Dom Perignon champagne. How punk is that? Really. "He’s our master (bater). The ultimate music top for a world that has no choice but to be his bottom. We’re all punkwashed from decades of worshipping this guy. I wouldn’t be surprised if he levitated onstage tonight. Dare I say his name out loud? I am not worthy! Jesus fucking Christ, it’s Iggy Pop!!!"
