@scottsantens I read your article on the origins and death of money. I am curious if this applies to all levels of government or just federal? Thank you!

UBI critics: If we give people money without conditions, people will stop working. UBI pilot: Turns out the UBI group worked more than the control group. UBI critics: Well of course giving people more money works. But it costs too much. UBI pilot: Turns out the money spent on UBI reduced other costs greater than the UBI. UBI critics: Yeah but people will stop working.

I’m at a Freshly Squeezed. When paying it ask you to add a tip. Asked employee if they get the tip and he said no, the company keeps it. What kind of f&*cked up corporate theft is this bullshit? Pass a law that all tips go to employees. Period.

If we've learned anything this week, it's that the need for safe, dignified, and *free* access to public restrooms is more urgent than ever. In this 🧵, we break down our Dec. 2022 report on public restroom access in Downtown San Diego, by the numbers. 🚽 drive.google.com/file/d/1pnUDgj…

All these deaths are a direct result of #Italy's & #EU's deliberate "let them die" policy in the #Mediterranean. How many children's bodies have to wash ashore before Italy and the EU launch a proactive Search & #Rescue mission, open #safe legal pathways to seek protection? @hrw

I’m gonna talk about something that I’m not supposed to talk about. I’m a 37 year old with dentures. I was dirt poor for most of my adult life, and worked jobs that didn’t offer dental care (hospitality/serving). Small problems like cavities became BIG problems.

@Emer_OToole Your story breaks my heart, and I can only imagine the parents and babies that will fall through those gaping systemic cracks. This is so wrong. Thank you for documenting and sharing.

It's staggering how many folks genuinely believe you can escape poverty by canceling Netflix, stop buying Starbucks, and cutting out avocados. As if poor folks don't meticulously explore ways to be more cost-effective. There are no individual solutions to poverty.

I don't normally write this sort of tweet but I am at the end of my tether. My PhD is funded by @ubeldtp part of the @ESRC and I have not received a stipend payment for 47 days. I simply do not know how I am expected to live on pay I received in August

@NathanPStrauss Passing sexism off as a harmless joke is a tactic used to exclude women and then mock them for not getting the humour or “over-reacting”. Classic. Thanks for calling this BS out.

@NathanPStrauss This “joke” does two things. First, it underscores hockey as a man’s sport. Second, it justifies men sexualizing/objectifying women while watching women play sports.

1. The new Canada Dental Benefit is just another government cheque. It will cost $5.3 billion over 5 years and may help up to 500,000 kids under 12. It does not bring dental coverage under provincial health insurance plans, which would place limits on profiteering in dentistry.

Lucky passed away. Our kids found him at 1000 lying on his side in the tall grass on our property on bank of the creek. He didn’t go far. Our love will always be with Lucky. We will miss him. The sorrow is deep. He was smart, loyal & an amazing friend. I wish I hugged him more.

Dear friends. Our 10 yo German Shepherd is missing. “Lucky” walked away from our property this morning. He has never done this before but is on prednisone which seems to have altered his character. Please help us find Lucky & please pray for his safety. #ygk #Kingston #GSD
