It's almost like when you tax the rich in a place you get to make that place a better place and even the rich just looking out the windows of their limos at most of that place in passing prefer to think "oh, that looks nice" rather than "I must prepare my bunker for the impending apocalypse"
NEW: The first two years of Massachusetts' millionaire tax has raised $3 billion more than expected.
And rather than driving the rich away, IPS researchers found that the number of millionaires has *increased.*

So the streamer Ludwig recently found out that one of his earliest regular viewers, who was trans, passed away and tonight he's doing a charity stream for the Trevor Project. So far he's raised over $46,000 in about 5 hours. www.twitch.tv/ludwig

twitter hiding replies from me is how my stalker was able to reply to me for months talking about raping me and cutting me into pieces without my knowledge. he was violating my protection order and i didn’t even know it.
it kept him out of jail.

Best thing you can do for hearty, cheap, easy meals is learn to make a good stew. There are a billion recipes, but the basic structure is:
1) Brown some meat at high heat in a big pot w/ a little oil
2) Pull out the meat to rest (and save the juices) and turn the heat to medium-low...

They sent Douglas MacArthur & tanks to violently evict and repress WWI veterans & their families who were peacefully protesting to get paid the money they were owed by Congress, during the Great Depression.
They drove armored cars with machine guns blaring through camps of women and children whose husbands dared to say that Colorado law also applied to them, as human beings - and that a ton was 2000lbs.
they set the army against people trying to end company stores

This. This. This. Food banks generally have buying power and partnerships where your money actually buys more food and feeds more people if they’re the ones doing the purchasing.
please give money and not food, it takes a not insignificant amount of time to sort and stock donations and money goes very far. also make sure you donate to a place that treats people with dignity and respect and allows access to anyone
as we reach the SNAP cliff just a gentle reminder to do-gooders that the most efficient use of resources is to contribute to organizations that are already established. unless nothing exists in your area (and it likely does whether you know it) now is probably not the time to stand something up
