1·1 year ago“Israel shoots dead activist” has to be the dumbest headline ever. What’s wrong with clarifying it by saying “Israel murders American activist”?

0·2 years agoIt’s also a Temu problem as they’re the sellers of said products and should be verifying that those products are not made of toxic materials.

News@lemmy.world•‘I was handed to a complete stranger’: the survivors fighting to end child marriage in 37 US states — and the people who want to keep it legal
1·2 years ago50 years ago I was living with a guy who decided to beat me one night. After he fell asleep I walked over to the emergency clinic to get checked out. But because I wasn’t 18, and neither of my parents lived in the same province as I did, the hospital made me go back home to get my 18 yr old boyfriend’s signature … so the guy who just kicked the shit out of me had to give the hospital permission to help me.

Canada@lemmy.ca•No jail time for Hamilton police officer who sexually assaulted woman he was mentoring, judge rules
0·2 years agoAnd placing your perception of language over and above that of a woman whose life has been devastated by a fucking cop.
Maybe you could place what happened as more important than the specific language used.

Canada@lemmy.ca•No jail time for Hamilton police officer who sexually assaulted woman he was mentoring, judge rules
0·2 years agoI’m being specific and correct.
You’re being pedantic. Caring more about the rules of language than the fact a woman’s life has been decimated by a rapey cop doesn’t help your argument.

Canada@lemmy.ca•No jail time for Hamilton police officer who sexually assaulted woman he was mentoring, judge rules
0·2 years ago“His life has taken an irreparable downward spiral. He is no longer the man he once was,” Watson wrote.
That is not a valid reason to allow a rapist to escape jail time.

News@lemmy.world•Vegetables are losing their nutrients. Can the decline be reversed?
0·2 years agoIt all depends on the market requirements.
But that’s the problem. Capitalism should never have been allowed to effect what a tomato or apple looked like vs the nutritional value it had. And in some (many?) cases that’s what happened.

News@lemmy.world•John Oliver offers to pay Clarence Thomas $1m a year if he resigns from supreme court
0·2 years agoI dunno. Oliver has guaranteed him a cool $1mil per year, until either Thomas or John dies (out of his own pocket no less!!), AND thrown in a brand new, top of the line Prevost Marathon motor coach.
It’s a mouth-watering deal.
Everyone should have to pass a basic automotive knowledge course before getting their driver’s license.

- the EU is second to the USA at 300 billion tonnes since 1751 Source














Nobody cares what ICE or DHS says 'cause all they do is lie.
