When I tell you that police are not designed to do what you think they're designed to do, you don't believe me.

81 kids, zip tied for hours, until some peed themselves.

While in other parts of the city, car break-ins happened.🤡

Later, you'll ask me why they don't trust cops.

Texas worker accused of being on drugs was actually dying of heatstroke

Infante began exhibiting #heatstroke symptoms including confusion, altered mental state, dizziness and loss of consciousness.

His friend and co-worker Joshua Espinoza began pouring cold water over him, trying to cool him down.

A foreman insisted Espinoza call the police, #claiming Infante’s bizarre behavior was due to #drugs, and the foreman pushed for a drug test when emergency medical services arrived.

On the day of the incident, temperatures in San Antonio reached in excess of 100F (37.7C) with humidity levels reaching as high as 75%, noted the lawsuit.

Infante later #died in a hospital from severe heatstroke and had a recorded internal temperature of 109.8F (43.2C). The Center for Disease Control states a body temperature of 103F (39.4C) or higher is a main symptom of heatstroke.

They weren't slaves. They were enslaved.

I would *love* to work someplace that has a mission I genuinely think makes the world better, but that's hard to find, and those places usually don't pay very well. I have a student loan, a car loan, and a transition to pay for. Just because I decided working at your company is the best of many shitty options doesn't mean I think the company is a net positive in the world.

As has been said many times before, it's not possible to live ethically under capitalism

That's why I fucking hate it

Looking for a job in the US today is kind of like pick a company with at least two of these business model characteristics:

- Relies on cheap energy from burning massive amounts of carbon
- Relies on cheap natural resource extraction
- Relies on exploiting a low-wage workforce
- Relies on asset investment (assumes infinite economic growth)
- Relies on insufficient or non-existent social services (shit healthcare, etc)
- Product is unhealthy but addictive
- Military industrial complex

I fell asleep on the couch this afternoon watching the news like an old person.
