AJ+ and Al Jazeera are propaganda arms of the theocratic Qatari government.

like mr. billionaire with the 8th yacht this week is going to preach to poor people buying a new couch they probably didn’t need but wanted because their kids fucked up the other one.

rich person who underpays said poor person: you know you can save hundreds of dollars just by not buying all your coffee at cafes.

poor person: i genuinely don’t know what planet you live on but i do not buy coffee at a cafe.

rich person who knows full well all jobs require you have a phone: just sell your phone. you know … something that will get you money once and then you’ll never be able to replace it… effectively losing yourself money.

rich people don’t need a 7th yacht to make themselves happy but like … a poor person struggling under crushing poverty buying something that makes them happy is always a more justifiable expense.

this girl was sold by her parents into what is sexual slavery dressed up as a marriage, so she tried to kill her husband to escape his abuse, but accidentally poisoned 27 people instead. 17 people died, with at least one victim being a child. Bibi has openly expressed deep regret over having accidentally killed innocent people.

she was sold by her parents, the very people meant to protect her, and made into a sex slave. in her desperation, she made a mistake that cost innocent people their lives. she was then arrested by a legal system that could have prevented all of this by protecting women from sexual slavery in the first place, but won’t. 

she will likely be abused in prison and sentenced to death.

If I married him, the government would literally expect me to care for him and be his sole source of income. He would lose all of his benefits, including SSDI. Spouses are expected to share income and that effects ALL of his benefits, even his health insurance. We simply can’t afford to be married.

But it goes even further than that. If I were disabled, our incomes would STILL be combined, meaning BOTH of us would have our benefits cut.

For people reviving supplemental income, their benefits can be cut anywhere from 25% of their current income all the way down to 0%

In fact, one of the stipulations of receiving income under the adult disabled child program (which provides benefits for people who were disabled before age 22) is that they LITERALLY never be married.

I normally don’t link to blog posts as resources, but since social service resource sites like to dress this problem up and make it seem smaller than it really is, I’m gonna call it appropriate! Check it out!

SAY HER NAME! More information emerged today in the murder of Layleen Polanco Xtravaganza, a 27-year old Afro-Latinx tran woman found dead this past weekend in her cell on Rikers Island. Layleen was being held in relation to a 2017 misdemeanor case involving sex work and small drug possession. She was being held on a $500 bail that she could not afford to pay. Her case would be exempt from bail based on new laws starting in January 2020, but just like Rikers Island is scheduled to be closed within the next decade, future policy could not save Layleen in the present. She was being held in solitary confinement at the time of her death. Layleen Xtravaganza was scheduled to be released on Thursday. She is the 10th Black trans women to die this year, and the second trans woman in as many weeks to die in state custody. Rikers Island is hell on earth, but for that matter, so is the entire carceral system in the United States. We demand an immediate end to cash bail, which keeps poor an working class people indefinitely incarcerated without trial or conviction. We also demand an end to the prison state that habitually abuses our trans sisters and brothers.

“Last September, Vietnam’s iteration of The Bachelor made international headlines when a female contestant halted a rose ceremony to profess her love for another female contestant.

“I went into this competition to find love and I’ve found that love for myself,” said a teary-eyed Minh Thu to the bachelor. “But it isn’t with you. It’s with someone else…”

She turned around to face Truc Nhu and Thu asked Nhu to return her rose and come home with her instead. The dramatic moment got even more tense when the bachelor chased Nhu backstage and convinced her to return to the competition.

But the gay agenda is powerful! Two episodes after Thu left, Nhu asked to leave the show because “she already found what she was looking for and it’s waiting for her at home.” Just like that, she and Thu began dating.

Six months later, fans are still following the couple’s relationship and an update on their status recently went viral again.

“Do y'all remember those girls on the bachelorette Vietnam who quit the competition because they fell in love with each other?” asks the tweet with over 27,000 likes. “I just found their Instagram and they’re still together! It’s so cute!!!!”
