because women approach him and treat THEMSELVES as sex objects

That's some A+ victim blaming right there. E. Jean Carroll didn't do shit

Care to share a link to the video? A way of mapping the world without GPS sounds interesting

That's a nice thing your mom did, and your tattoo is a great reminder that however bad we're feeling in the moment, that "this too, shall pass."

wow. the fact that they're finding these chemicals in Placental and Amniotic fluid is nuts

And then the chemicals themselves are just... a list of some very nasty things

I'm reminded of the Propublica article that blew the lid off the fact that 3M's PFAS accumulates in our tissues and causes cancer.

At the time, Johnson said, he didn’t think PFOS caused significant health problems. Still, he told me, “it was obviously bad,” because man-made compounds from household products didn’t belong in the human body. He said that he argued against using fluorochemicals in toothpaste and diapers. (...) “These idiots were already putting it in food packaging,” he said.

The ProPublica Report that this piece cites has more information

fucking heartbreaking. brian kemp, drumpf, samuel alito, clarence thomas, john roberts and the three Trump appointees — neil gorsuch, brett kavanaugh and amy coney barrett have blood on their hands.

I discovered this at a wonderful restaurant in Columbus, OH that is now closed, but it's a spicy indian chili-like dish that, when served with a fried egg on top, is just brutally delicious.

What I want to understand is how the cops shot themselves... were they facing each other with the perp in between them?

[–] jpreston2005@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Joe Lozito would probably have something to say about cops willingness to let a crazed knife wielding man aboard a train...

Maddrey said the officers followed the man, each firing a Taser which proved ineffective in subduing the man. He then exited the train while it was still at the station and charged the officers with the knife, the chief said.

it was the next sentence from what you copied lol

The actual answer is likely under 15

qualified immunity says there's no specific law or statute saying you can't fire indiscriminately into a crowd of people whilst attempting to "apprehend" someone suspected of not paying their $2.90 subway fare.... so they'll be let off with a warning and a nice long paid vacation. Maybe the victims will get some token amount...

Oh wait, you didn't even mention the cops getting punished, I guess it's just a given at this point that they won't be. We see a headline these days about cops shooting innocent people and we can't suspend disbelief long enough to even imagine the cops getting punished.

America!
