Ownership meant a physical copy. Now you own nothing and can't find what you want across multiple streaming platforms.

If you sit next to the person on the bus who you see as spasming and twitching... most of the time they'll continue to move the same way they were with no ill intent to you. It's not dangerous, it's tourettes/stimming/cerebral palsy symptoms.

If you chat to the homeless man yelling to himself outside the shops... most of the time you'll learn why he's upset, have a chat that makes him feel less alone, and he won't want your help or will calm down because he's been acknowledged.

If you check on the woman moaning and writhing in her seat on the train... most of the time you'll find she's hungover or in withdrawal or suffering from a chronic medical problem, and you can offer support that could make her feel better or save her life.

Coerced youth clinic patients into filling out invasive, deeply uncomfortable research questionnaires while not making it clear whether these forms were research or diagnostic forms

Bypassed the privacy rights of 1700 patients to use their medical records for scientific publications without permission, despite having applied for permission and been denied it twice

Practiced sterilization of trans patients as a prerequisite to have their legal gender (read: gender marker on all ID documents) changed until 2016, still has not done anything to compensate the victims

Undermined efforts to establish regional clinics and pushed to minimize their ability to provide any kind of treatment, in an effort to guard their monopoly

Straight up implemented conversion therapy practices to try to dissuade patients from transitioning.

The clinic has the highest patient complaint rate of all branches at Oslo University Hospital, an impressive "achievement" given that they're treating a very small minority group.

A local paper had some great photographs, all taken by Nicole Hester:

The day before, Rep. Justin Pearson tries to attend a Senate Committee meeting and is barred access by the Sergeant at Arms.

Lawmakers and protesters link arms as the descend the capitol steps.

Once inside the chamber, Democratic representatives continued to stand together with arms linked.

They continued standing together with arms linked as votes were cast.

Democratic representatives take a group photo protesting the redistricting.

Rep. Justin Jones burns a photo of the Confederate flag with the words, We will not go back.

And stomps the ashes.

Additional information: State lawmakers have been gunning for Pearson and Jones nearly their entire terms. Most notably, in 2023, the House expelled them for participating in a protest at the Capitol. Their districts had to have special elections to have them reinstated.

Pearson is one of the plaintiffs of a lawsuit seeking an injunction against the redistricting.

He didn't do it.

The cops very clearly planted evidence on him because they had to make an arrest because all eyes were on them and whoever actually did the deed was making them look stupid.

Why would the real killer hero have kept the weapon on his person and traveled two states over while carrying it and a manifesto in his bag, conveniently turning the crime into a federal matter? The same guy whose bag they found in a park, filled with monopoly money? Why did the police turn off their bodycams, take Luigi's stuff, drive a block away, turn their bodycams back on, go back into the restaurant, and then arrest him?
