License Plate Surveillance Logs Reveal Racist Policing Against Romani More than 80 law enforcement agencies across the United States have used language perpetuating harmful stereotypes against Romani people when searching the nationwide Flock Safety automated license

Cops ran hundreds of searches for license plates using targeted and offensive terms such as "roma" and "g*psy," and in many instances, without any mention of a suspected crime---perpetuating systemic harm by demeaning individuals based on their race or ethnicity. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

it's clear from the comments and retweets that this is making fun of rural americans for being stupid and having bad teeth. i hope you got whatever you needed from punching down.

you can be critical without targeting the mainly poor and rural demographics who are being abandoned by both sides. there's no reason for making fun of people's teeth, which furthers embarrassment of the ones who do not support the current administration. do better.

long haired white cat with tabby-patterned face lays under a homemade fort. the fort is made with pillows (unseen) holding up a pink Powerpuff Girls blanket (where Blossom and Buttercup are visible) on a green loveseat. she is laying on a blue blanket while partially under the fort. in front of her is a table with a red-maroon with black and silver top water bottle.

have always felt bad when i tried it myself in the past. my boy who has since passed just wanted to follow me around, so a cat-tree or another seat by me solved the main issue. nowadays "hey! no cats on the table!" is enough, but we hardly use the table for anything besides a no-cat zone

I tweet: "people who see 50% of their monthly paycheck go to rent don't care if a candidate eats with their hands. they want to hear what your candidate is going to do about housing."

who creates the lively art and music scenes if the rent is too high? who makes cultural life? who serves you food or washes your dishes? who creates the fancy little restaurants that draw you to urban living? affordable housing is at the heart of what makes city life worthwhile.

Sure, except for that even websites meant to help with tax information for crypto currencies cannot keep our information secure. We need more laws on protection of data before we start requiring more data collection. They arent gonna give a shit until we hurt their pockets when data leaks happen

Jackie Mitchell, Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig

Jackie Mitchell, Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig

A few days after Mitchell struck out Ruth and Gehrig, baseball commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis voided her contract and declared that women were unfit to play baseball as the game was "too strenuous."[5][12] However, Mitchell continued to play professionally, barnstorming with the House of David, a men's team famous for their very long hair and long beards. 13) While traveling with the House of David team, she would sometimes wear a fake beard for publicity. [14]

Mitchell retired in 1937 at the age of 23 after

becoming furious since her story about playing baseball was being used as something of a side show - once being asked to pitch while riding a donkey. [12] She refused to come out of retirement when the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League formed in 1943.[14 Major League Baseball would formally ban the signing of women to contracts on June 21, 1952, [12] The ban lasted until 1992 when Carey Schueler was drafted by the Chicago White Sox for the 1993 season. [15][16

On April 2, 1931, the minor league Chattanooga Lookouts played an exhibition game against the New York Yankees. Seventeen-year-old Mitchell pitched, facing Babe Ruth as the first batter.

Mitchell, a left-handed pitcher taught by Hall-of-Famer Dazzy Vance, used her signature drop ball to strike out Ruth on four pitches.

Ruth reportedly threw down his bat and verbally abused the umpire after the called third strike.

Mitchell then struck out Lou Gehrig on three pitches before being removed from the game.

Ruth's sexist comments

Following the strikeout, Ruth publicly dismissed Mitchell's skill, claiming the game was a fluke. Ruth was quoted in Chattanooga newspapers: "I don't know what's going to happen if they begin to let women in baseball. Of course, they will never make good. Why? Because they are too delicate. It would kill them to play ball every day".

17 year old Jackie Mitchell struck out Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig in 1931.

Ruth's fee fees were hurt and threw a tantrum on how women were too delicate to play baseball. Due to his toddler like antics, women were banned from being signed in the MLB 1992.

to he clear, it was always the case that you cannot have cannabis in your system for stimulants for ADHD, but apparently now theyve canceled testing for it too. even though ive been on the list prior to the change, it doesnt matter, and i had to wait weeks for my next appt to even find this out

been waiting since i started therapy to get my turn for ADOS testing. they decided this year that any drug use means you are ineligible for testing, and that i am addicted to cannabis and thus cannot test for ADHD or autism... time to either rejoin the wait list or pay out of pocket

Blue whales are going eerily silentβ€”and scientists say it’s a warning sign A six-year study off California’s coast shows how marine heat waves and noise pollution are silencing the ocean’s largest singers. Does saving the ocean start with hearing it?

Increasing temperatures from climate change have led to a 40% reduction in blue whale β€œsongs” in just the past 6 years alone.

β€œIt’s like trying to sing while you're starving,” said John Ryan, a biological oceanographer.

The world's oceans absorb more than 90% of the excess heat from climate change
