Hi everyone, wanted to boost Ahmed's fundraiser which has reached 85% of the goal (thanks to all who donated and shared thus far 🩷)!!

However, we still have a ways to go - as of now, we are less than €15k away from reaching the goal of €100k! We are closer than ever before, but we still need that final push to ensure that this family has what they need to endure the ongoing genocide until they are able to reach safety.

Ahmed is a loving and protective father and husband. He has 4 kids that need food, warm clothes, and shelter: Zeina (7 y/o), Eileen (6), Yamen (4) and Ronza (born in June 2024, so only a couple months old!!!)! Give this family hope for a better future and a better chance at accessing much needed goods, especially during this harsh winter. Help ease some of this immense burden that no person should ever have to face.

Please don't stop supporting this family!!! Spare whatever you can to their fundraiser, and share however you can!!!

Elon Musk takes aim at Wikipedia

The billionaire has become one of the most prominent supporters of President-elect Donald Trump.

While Christmas Day is the last day anyone should ask for you to spend more money, I'm asking you to spend more money. A dollar. Five dollars. Whatever you've got. Elon Musk wants to own Wikipedia - one of the last reliable sources out there, and the only one not owned by a billionaire or corporation.

If you can't donate, this message isn't for you and you should not feel bad.

If you can donate to Wikipedia to keep it out of Musk's filthy, blood-stained hands, please do.

Here's the donations page.

Superhero comics are human stories told at superhuman scales, is it really a wonder that the story of Jason and Bruce reads like that of an assault and inadequate response?

[cologona]

Joker is a man in your community who hurts people. He keeps hurting people no matter how your community tries to punish him or disincentive him. He hurts strangers, he hurts friends, and eventually he hurts you.

Your father is the most influential person in this community- something like the headmaster of a school or pastor of the local church or even the patriarch of a large family. You expect that after this man has hurt so many people, targeting you would be the last straw.

It’s not. Bruce can’t cross the line. Can’t exile him, can’t expel him, can’t excommunicate him, can’t disown him. Because everyone is redeemable. Because he can’t ruin a student’s future. Because the Lord’s grace must reach the troubled. Because family sticks together.

No instead it’s your own fault. You knew he was dangerous so why did you allow him near? Reckless and impulsive and asking for trouble. It’s your disobedience to your father that caused this, and if there is a person deserving of pity here it is him, because he is the only blameless one.

No his guilt isn’t narcissistic self-flagellation it is indicative of his nobility and selflessness! To demand that he act, to ask him to betray his deep convictions- that would be selfish! Overemotional to the point of irrationality even.

[tomkingisaracistnepobaby]

Don't worry. Your attention-grabbing, leg-revealing outfit has been put on display so everyone can be reminded that you asked for it, and the other children will cover their ankles and obey their father from now on. The man preying on your community hurt you because you tempted him. You went after him, you allowed yourself to be alone with him, you treated things like a game.

Rest assured the other children know how to behave so as not to provoke him. They've all spent time around him, and he never hurt them like he hurt you. The problem was you, and the problem has been fixed.

Homes are expensive because of landlords hoarding them for profit, not because of regulations.

[gmbeowulf]

Time to bring back my favorite picture: The reason there have been so many food and consumer good recalls in the past few years. (If you got listeria from cold cuts? Direct result of Trump's actions!) Regulations exist to protect consumers from profit-hungry corporations.

[inhumaninterest]

Remember, there is no "lesson learned" from those regulations. They aren't safety procedures where now that people know putting lead in cinnamon is a bad thing that they won't do it even if you take the regulation away. The regulations were created because, when given a chance, these people leapt at the chance to destroy housing, poison food, and blight the planet.

Everytime a regulation like that is removed you should be concerned about who was being "held back" by a law preventing them from selling disease riddled meat.

[thatgirlonstage]

A salient example, since lead got brought up specifically—

A while ago it occurred to me to wonder how long we’ve known lead is poisonous, since it was so ubiquitous in paint and construction and so many other places until just a few decades ago, so I went on a wiki dive to see when the first alarm bells were sounded about the health hazards of lead.

Want to guess?

Ancient Rome.

People have known lead is poisonous since at least Ancient Rome.

It didn’t stop people using it.

Your safety regulations are written in blood, not by accident, not because people didn’t know there were dangers, but because without them, blood is cheap.

[headspace-hotel]

Lead was used as a pesticide in the early 20th century, so I reckon we knew it was poison

[bogleech]

Let's not forget that a chunk of workplace safety regulations are owed to the coal wars, when Appalachian miners had to wage an actual civil war against their bosses, police, military and hired goons just to get any rights at all on the job; their employers preferred to hire militias and kill people rather than agree to pay for better safety equipment and give people breaks.

Then there were the "radium girls" in the 1920s who worked at factories assembling products that used radium in order to glow in the dark. They were told to use their mouths to wet their brushes so the company could save more time and material. Their bodies began falling apart, literally, their tissues were dying and breaking off, and the retaliation they led - while any of them were still alive - resulted in a set of laws addressing workplace related illness, setting in motion waves of additional regulation and scrutiny we all still benefit from.

There's more events like these all through history, industries willing to kill people to save money, and all that ever ended any of it was the "government interference" hated so much by conservatives. Almost every single regulation they fight against or already destroyed was a response to a big business damaging human beings over as little as a few cents at a time.

Meanwhile, the rules and red tape conservatives enjoy and enforce are the kind that limit where homeless people can sleep or what food stamps can buy.

Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire - Wikipedia

The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City, on Saturday, March 25, 1911, was the deadliest industrial disaster in the history of the city, and one of the deadliest in U.S. history.[1] The fire caused the deaths of 146 garment workers – 123 women and girls and 23 men[2] – who died from the fire, smoke inhalation, falling, or jumping to their deaths. Most of the victims were recent Italian or Jewish immigrant women and girls aged 14 to 23;[3][4] of the victims whose ages are known, the oldest victim was 43-year-old Providenza Panno and the youngest were 14-year-olds Kate Leone and Rosaria "Sara" Maltese.[5]

...

Because the doors to the stairwells and exits were locked[1][8] – a common practice at the time to prevent workers from taking unauthorized breaks and to reduce theft[9] – many of the workers could not escape from the burning building and jumped from the high windows. There were no sprinklers in the building.[10] The fire led to legislation requiring improved factory safety standards and helped spur the growth of the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union (ILGWU), which fought for better working conditions for sweatshop workers.

[bogleech]

THEY WERE LOCKED IN, UNABLE TO ESCAPE THE FIRE, IN ORDER TO "DISCOURAGE UNAUTHORIZED BREAKS AND REDUCE THEFTS."

Businesses like Amazon are doing absolutely everything they can within the law to "discourage" breaks and thefts, but the law says you can't fucking lock your workers in like prisoners. They currently would if they could, and they'd love those rules to disappear.

REGULATIONS ARE WRITTEN IN BLOOD.

Not the blood of the shareholders or the executives, but the workers. Ordinary people just trying to make a living.
