Here's a handy graphic you can save and share if you're in the Bay Area
hopefully the Big One will happen while they're in town so they can make themselves useful rescuing people from collapsed bridges or something 😒🙄😑
ridiculous & unforgiveable that at least *200* democrats in congress didn't sign this 😡 i have sons; don't they?? this makes me furious

just to add: anyone who isn't "mad" about how US weapons have been massacring children in gaza daily for over 2 years now either couldn't care less or isn't paying attention (because it's all about how the US govt affects OUR privilege here at home, as the woman in OP said)
i'll let your needling condescension re how "mad" or "pure" i appear slide, musicalhistorian, due to your good taste in jazz & our shared loved for cats. i'm glad you enjoyed your fun, festive, joyful event & it was well attended. let's see how it moves the needle. the proof is in the pudding.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Basma. Basma was a makeup artist and did eyelash extensions before the war. She lost her home and the tower she worked in was recently destroyed. She has 4 children Tulin, 9, Malak, 7, Kamal, 5 and baby Maryam who is just 9 months old.

1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it).

But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that
"Make no mistake: imprisoning and blackmailing people behind fences has always been a huge moneymaker for the capitalist amoeboid. Sometimes the fence is invisible but trust me, it’s there. We are all shoved into concentration camps whether they are real or virtual..."

Amid Israel’s man-made famine in Gaza, a young Palestinian boy scours the streets for fallen pasta from an aid truck, a stark reminder of the severe hunger and suffering that is still gripping the strip.

Of all the stupid things that this regime has done, this is right up near the top. Postdoctoral researchers come to the US on H-1B visas. This will further destroy the US science enterprise. Stupid stupid stupid.
Trump administration to add $100,000 fee for H-1B visas
The Trump administration is targeting a visa widely used by tech companies and other employers to hire foreign workers.
