Speaker (if you know this person please let me know so I can credit them) testifies against anti-trans and anti-drag bills at the Texas Senate while another pro-trans demonstrator triea to keep a Republican goon from trying to prevent them from speaking.

Elon Musk thought he could get the better of AOC after she took him to task for his plan to charge people $8 per month for a blue checkmark.

AOC initially tweeted: "Lmao at a billionaire earnestly trying to sell people on the idea that "free speech" is actually a $8/mo subscription plan"

Space Karen got busy researching AOC's website store and found a $58 sweatshirt. He took a screenshot, drew a crude green circle around the price tag, and added a chin-stroking emoji. Can't you just imagine him up there in his jet, tapping away on his phone with a self-amused grin stretched so tightly across his face that his hair plugs are ready to pop from his scalp?

The Right are emotionally stunted. They stopped evolving in grade school and can't assimilate to our complex world.

Rather than listen and learn, they yell in ignorance.

I am FURIOUS and BAFFLED that major news outlets are not covering what’s going on in Iran right now and I don’t fucking have a twitter so I can’t make noise over there, even though apparently that’s the only social media platform people pay attention to????

Students at Sharif University of Technology in Tehran have been one group of many students and professors across the nation protesting, and NOW, the regime’s security forces have LOCKED THE STUDENTS IN THE UNIVERSITY AND ARE ARRESTING THEM IN MASSES AND SHOOTING AT THEM IF THEY TRY TO ESCAPE OUT THE GATES.

You have DOZENS of teenagers running for their lives in the dark while their parents and fellow citizens are protesting outside the gates chanting “free the students”. And NOW, the they’re sending more repression forces to the University!!

A BBC article says it’s unable to verify the events at the university in the same space it writes that VIDEO FOOTAGE on social media shows students RUNNING FROM SECURITY FORCES ON CAMPUS.

THE AUDACITY.

Share as much as you can about this on all of your social media platforms. Tag as many human rights activists and groups and news outlets you can think of to get the information out there. And if you have any friends or family in Tehran, let them know if they already don’t that people are mobilising to the university. Help the students!! Use the hashtags that are going around on social media (#mahsaamini, #jinaamini, #opiran, #iranprotests, to name a few).

I’m adding photos from instagram that give more information. Follow @1500tasvir on instagram for on the ground footage, @middleeastmatters, and @golfarahani to name a few.

the break free from plastic act would functionally hold manufacturers & corporations responsible for the costs involved in recycling and waste management. obviously, corporations are most influenced by money - this is the only way to enact real change on many of these companies.

the act would also lead to phasing out single use plastic, establishing new recycling standards, and investing in new recycling facilities.
