Looking for catchy suggestions of hashtags to help my Dan Schneider campaign take off. We need something memorable and catchy that we can all use to link our posts together. Please suggest ideas in the comments and I will make a poll shortly.
We need a catchy hashtag like #metoo or #timesup that we can brand around taking down Dan Schneider if we really want this to work. We need your suggestions in the comments and overall effort to make this work.
#Schneidergate and #Schneiderfile don't work too well because it's hard for the layman to quickly spell his name. #Pedogate is too easy for the mainstream media to discredit. Maybe we call it #Nickgate or #Nickghazi or something like that instead?

Mad admiration for healthcare leaders with the courage to run for office: @hiral4congress arguing that we naturally have the skills to be advocates + that women need to be at the table to bring empathy, equity, & empowerment #FIX19
Next up: @hanjaneway talks about the death of a patient shot in the hospital and why it’s important to speak out about the structural racism that likely contributed #FIX19
As a person of color in this country, everywhere I go I’m forced to consider if people around me wish me harm, or are okay with my being harmed.
So every time I find out people I know and love are okay with people who are okay with this, it’s a kick in the gut. /1

Complicity with complicity is complicity.
Last year I was profoundly hurt to hear a friend declare their intent to avoid conversing with their relatives about their continued support of an administration which is actively seeking to harm brown people.

It was 9am. I went outside, sat on the ground,
and cried.
I cried because if my friends—who know and love me, who consider me a friend, who say they want good for people of all backgrounds—won’t speak up for me:
Who will?
I REALLY need for MEN to think about this.

THREAD: It’s true. I’ve been running the @GroupBABEL Twitter account for way too long & no one gives a damn. Not to mention that I no longer want to be associated with this group since they attended @KzooICMS 2019 even though Medievalists of Color were iced out. #MedievalTwitter
To be super-frank, I’ve been (heart)sick because of @GroupBABEL’s inattention to divisive issues in the field ever since 2016 when I urged boycotting the Kalamazoo Congress after Allen Frantzen’s misogynist & racist writings came to light, to no avail. I haven’t been back since.
I spent a lot of time in 2016 ranting about Frantzen’s misogyny & racism (& theft of junior colleagues’ work) & also wrote letters to every learned society begging them to censure him, to no avail. But thank you @JonathanHsy, Suzanne Akbari & @muellerale for helping me with that.
Richard Pryor Jr has come out to claim Paul Mooney molested him as a boy. Paul Mooney never tried to uplift black people like Bill Cosby and Mooney has lots in common with the liberal power structure. I’m surprised he was in Jeffrey Epstein’s flight log.
Cosby donated tens of millions to HBCU’s and created some of the most positive images of black folk on TV. He messed up when he “talked down” to black folk. In other, words tell them the truth. His days were numbered after that. It was just a matter of time.
Bill is very heterosexual so he could be easily sacrificed. Mooney is gay. Don’t hold your breath. People need to understand the difference between giving someone drugs and drugging them. One, you’re aware. The other you’re not. Cosby gave drugs to druggies.
OK folks, hold onto your hats. Here we go. Starting my annual ritual of live-tweeting my reading of the @voguemagazine #septemberissue. Fyi: this will be happening on and off through today, because a) there's a LOT of the September issue, and b) I also have Saturday chores 🙂
@voguemagazine So...the cover. @taylorswift13. Very much admire her as a young woman conquering the sexist patriarchal music business, but - I would've loved to have seen someone not a 'standard celeb' on the cover, ideally someone older, and most ideally someone black. #liveolder #diversity
@voguemagazine The marquee inside front cover/7 pages/scent strip spot is taken by @YSL for Libre feat @DUALIPA. I can't even begin to think what that ad placement cost. A good less-obvious celeb choice, but again, as a dedicated daily wearer of YSL scent Nu, would like to see an older woman
EVEN CONSUMMATE VICTORY IN THE BATTLE FOR THE SOUL OF AMERICA WON'T END THE WAR
There is a terrible truth lurking behind Donald Trump that is far more important than 2020. We've dared not whisper this truth because it's more terrifying than anything we can currently comprehend.

1/ What is this wretched, unspeakable truth? Quite simply, that all of human civilization itself experienced *astoundingly good fortune* that DONALD J. TRUMP (of all people!) was elected head of state and supreme commander of Earth's greatest military superpower.
Seriously.
Seriously.
2/ Donald Trump is a bad man, and he must lose in 2020. No sane person would disagree with this. But his mere defeat is not the end of this war, not by a long shot. Without a supportive Congress, a President is essentially powerless to advance legislation on their own.

- Have same-sex couples applied to be each other's nominee & listed spouse for insurance at Bajaj Allianz & has your company accepted those applications?

4. My guess is that the issue here is: Whether or not LGBTQ people can marry in India, which they currently can't. This is used to justify financial discrimination.
5. But hey, afaik, unmarried straight people who live-in/co-habit are allowed to access some same services.

A year ago today I had to walk into court and represent myself in the fight for my deceased daughter’s body in a case funded against me by Tory donor James Lyle. He was desperate to cover up his role in my daughter’s life/death. He spent THOUSANDS of pounds.
He hired two sets of lawyers and he paid approximately 80 grand only for a confidential order that has proved to be ineffective since a) He committed a crime by destroying evidence and paying people to lie about me b) Broke the order himself with his stupid big mouth
I was told to get through the week so that we could delay the hearing until after the pre-inquest review when journalists who’d been disturbed by his behaviour for years were waiting to name him. For years he’d used confidential orders to hide what he got up to.
I want to follow christian leaders who use their social media platforms as places of refuge and are vocal about injustice. I want to follow Christian leaders who publically grapple with the issues raised by the #metoo and #timesup movement.
I want to follow christian leaders who protect their immigrant neighbour from ICE. I want to follow christian leaders who use their social media to raise finance to pay for lawyers and therapists to work with immigrant families at the southern boarder.
I want to follow christian leaders who are consistently unfailingly vocal about sensible gun control and who are vocal and active in encouraging their congregations to leave the NRA until that gun control is in place.

("Ex parte" is Latin for "from." An ex parte communication is one coming from only one party, not providing any notice to the other party. Basically the opposite of a letter copied to opposing counsel, filed publicly, and served via the electronic filing system.)
It is quite literally impossible to overstate how fantastically dumb Ty Beard's "ex parte" characterization is
To any minimally competent attorney, it screams "this guy doesn't know what he's doing"

The motion is weak and the basis is LOLable, but my suspicion is that the judge will grant it (though likely for less than 3 weeks)
Defendants will argue the burden is on Plaintiff to show good cause (the motion doesn't do that), plus ongoing harassment

Positive for the Defendants. He gives their attorneys lots of usable material
A good rule of thumb as y'all see an assortment of "bUt ThEy LiEd UnDeR oAtH" tweets from conVics is that they're typically projecting – accusing others of the things they themselves or R.Broly have done

@JeffreyAHirsch “Eye candy” How disrespectful to the demographic you claim to curry favor with not to mention the disrespect to @SamHeughan and his incredible talent. In this era of #MeToo and #TimesUp are you so worried about appearing to champion women
That you feel good doing so at the expense of men? To call an incredibly talented male lead “eye candy” is insulting and demeaning to the man himself. Objectifying men is not how to empower women. Nor is thinking women watch for eye candy.
You really don’t get it do you ? Sadly men such as you never will. You don’t understand how to build others up be they male or female . You’ve insulted your female audience with every word in that article and you insulted @SamHeughan #DoBetterJeffrey

Mr Sandeep WhoeverTheFuckYouAre. I was blissfully unaware of your existence until I saw you justify violence in the name of love. But now that I have the misfortune of knowing you, let me tell you a few things. Because assholes like you deserve to know. (Thread)
It doesn’t always begin with easily recognizable forms of violence. It is far more insidious than that. The mind has to be controlled first and foremost. Then comes the body. And so it goes.
Jealousy and possessiveness seem cute at first. And so does his mild annoyance over this and that. Aww, to get endless attention like this, that's what love must be, she thinks. But soon there are angry outbursts over anything and everything. She always ends up apologizing.

#KabirSingh, our hero, is an abusive, misogynist, cringeworthy and overgrown man child whose entire universe works to justify his physical and emotional violence, even against the woman, he supposedly loves!
🤮
🤮
#KabirSingh glorifies, even defends, stalking and abuse of all 3 kinds -physical, sexual and emotional- against the main lead. There’s not even one character who looks our abusive man-child “hero” in the eye or stands up to him.
