Very exhausting but so are most important #justice fights against #government.
I just hope it will help more #POC & #disabled families in future from suffering unnecessary #traumas from #cops & coward #paramedics scared of telling cops to leave a #medical#crisis call when no cops are needed & only making things worse by letting #abusive cops stay around.
"#Antisemitism surging, report finds, prompting fear for future of ‘Jewish life’ in West

Wim Voermans op X had de mogelijke uitzonderingsgrond gedeeld voor de "asielcrisis" die het komende kabinet kennelijk wil afroepen, maar daarmee kun je nog niet afwijken van europese verdragen en afspraken. #politiek#asiel#crisis#wilders

The #SupremeCourt on Tues cleared the way for Texas to immediately begin enforcing one of the nation’s harshest immigration laws, which opponents say would disrupt more than a century of #federal control over #international borders.

The video you see here is a screen recording of a voicemail I got from volunteers from a local church in Aug 2016 when I was struggling to find a job, we used all of my mom's retirement (because my dad stole what she earned when he was with us)
BY THE WAY #211 still tells people to call this "charity" for help to save them from homelessness, when I called in December 2023,
I reached out after my therapist #abused and fired me leaving me in the financial and mental #crisis I am in now

The next #tech#crisis will come about when a relative handful of very underpaid and undervalued #developers have to try and maintain and fix great reams of #AI generated code that no-one ever took any time to try and understand in the first place.
