walking thru the streets late at night would be so Good and calming if I wasn’t scared of every man and car I see after 8pm

Amazon workers 'refuse' to build tech for US immigration, citing Hitler

'IBM’s systems were employed in the 1940s to help Hitler. We will not let that happen again'

People working for Amazon have written to the company’s CEO, Jeff Bezos, to protest the sale of facial recognition tools and other technology to police departments and government agencies.

The workers cite the use of Amazon technology by the US Department of Homeland Security and the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency, which have been criticised for enforcing Donald Trump’s “zero tolerance” policy, which has seen parents separated from their childrenat the US border.

“As ethically concerned Amazonians, we demand a choice in what we build, and a say in how it is used,” the letter states. “We learn from history, and we understand how IBM’s systems were employed in the 1940s to help Hitler.

“IBM did not take responsibility then, and by the time their role was understood, it was too late.

“We will not let that happen again. The time to act is now.”

Holocaust experts claim IBM’s German subsidiary directly supplied the Nazis with technology which assisted the operation of concentration camps at Auschwitz and Treblinka.

In their letter to Mr Bezos, the Amazon workers said they would “refuse to build the platform” which powers ICE, or any technology used to violate human rights.

Listing three demands, the workers called on the CEO to stop selling the technology to law enforcement, stop providing infrastructure to partners which enable ICE, and implement stronger transparency measures.

“Our company should not be in the surveillance business; we should not be in the policing business; we should not be in the business of supporting those who monitor and oppress marginalized populations,” the letter concludes.

Which dumbasses really think a female superhero should smile while attempting to save the world and deal with stressful issues. I'd like to see all y'alls misogynist asses smiling while you deal with hardships in your lives.

Never ever tell someone to smile unless you are taking their picture. If they felt like smiling they would be dumbass.

Children are human and any rules that wouldn't be allowed in the workplace should not be enforced on students.

Not to mention the fact that Mrs. White isn’t qualified to teach. She should be required to take a remedial English course. “I have went”? please. It’s “I have gone”, Mrs. White. 

first, my kid would not sign anything without me seeing it first. 2nd, upon seeing it i would be at the superintendant’s office the next morning. then we would speak to the teacher. black folk gotta nip it in the bud.

Goldman and Sachs literally fucking asked aloud if curing patients is a good business model.

Fuck this shit I want out of here

Reblogging because I am allergic to at least 3 immunizations and don't want to get whatever bullshit disease you are carrying around because you believe immunizations are a government trick or cause autism. I also don't want your lack of care for your safety and that of your children to risk the lives of other people.

Do you guys know why I’m so adamant about you vaccinating your kids?

I’m immunocomprimised. It means my immune system is weakened. I have very weak lungs and I rely on herd immunity to stay safe.

I’m allergic to the shot people get for whooping cough. How do I know? I had a 3 week, painful reaction. Now, this was a while ago, before shit hit the fan with the whole anti-vax movement.

But do you know what my doctor told me? It was safer for me to get the shot that I’m ALLERGIC TO than rely on herd immunity because if I get the shot, I’ll be in moderate-severe pain for about 3 weeks max. If I get the disease, I will die. My lung capacity is bad enough, but my body is too weak to fight the disease.

So not only are you putting your child’s life at risk by not vaccinating them, you’re putting mine and all the other people who cannot be vaccinated at risk because of a selfish decision that isn’t backed by science.

This is important. Don't let your workplace prevent you from getting help with your injury or the consequences of an injury

What You Should do After a Work-Related Injury

Workplace injuries are possible at any kind of a job. Many of today’s jobs involve environmental hazards that can result in loss of hearing, the creation of allergies, injuries from outdoor weather conditions, respiratory difficulties, and dozens of other medical and physical conditions that impact your lifestyle and ability to function fully and normally. According to one Philadelphia attorney, “One of the most common workplace injuries in offices, of course, is carpal tunnel syndrome, which affects tens of thousands of people each year, decreasing their efficiency and threatening their ability to continue to earn a living.”

Unsafe working conditions have been the bane of working men and women for centuries, and even though the United States leads the world in rules and regulations to protect life and limb when on the job, there are still far too many employees who suffer from work related health issues from injuries sustained on the job.

Safety training

Whether your workplace is an office, a warehouse, a factory, or various outdoor venues, your employer has a legal obligation to see that your are given safety training prior to beginning any work, in order to help you become familiar with potential hazards and how to avoid/prevent them. Never refuse or ignore an invitation from your employer to participate in these classes – and make doubly sure that after you have completed them you are officially certified as having completed them. This is a crucial key if you ever consider filing for workman’s compensation.

Where to go if you’re injured on the job

Another crucial element for employees to remember is that in most states employers are legally obligated to post a list of physicians that you, as an injured employee, must go to for an examination if you intend to file for workman’s compensation. That doesn’t mean you can’t see your regular doctor at all, it means you should also schedule an appointment with a physician listed by your employer – again, this make filing for workman’s compensation much easier and less time-consuming.

Don’t sign on the dotted line!

It’s important to carefully look over any document you are asked to sign when you do go see a doctor suggested by your employer in contemplation of filing for workman’s compensation. If you are at all unsure about what a document means, do not sign it. At this point in your contemplation of filing, you really need to find a competent workman’s compensation lawyer to take up the case for you. While workman’s comp was originally designed for nearly anyone to understand and file for without outside assistance, over the years it has grown in complexity, until today the smart person with a work-related injury will not hesitate to employ an experienced attorney to help make sense of the paperwork and to protect your right as an injured employee.

Never forget that your work-related injury can extend to your family’s well being, too. The stress and strain involved in suddenly losing a paycheck often brings on stress-reduced illness in a spouse and even in children. All this will be taken into account when your lawyer begins negotiating with the workman’s comp people and with your employer. By putting your future into the hands of a competent and experienced attorney you will guarantee much better results for yourself and your loved ones than if you try to ‘go it alone.’

I know someone who would look amazing in this. Hell I know a girl and a guy who would look absolutely fab in this.
