.@realsportshbo revealed another ugly aspect to @NFL concussion story: Under existing terms of settlement with @NFLPA, board administering funds has denied most claims & major diagnoses such as behavioral issues & depression are not even covered. #labor #publichealth #oligarchy
.@nfl claims that many applications r fraudulent. Of course, people should defer to the league, since it's an expert in fraud. It misled its labor force for years about dangers of the sport & it has misled municipal governments into subsidizing its stadiums #GameRecognizesGame
This story represents almost everything wrong in #USA. #Oligarchy begrudges slimmest slices of pie to #labor, & we the #Idiocracy buy billionaires' merchandise made by more oppressed workers elsewhere & use $ from public treasuries to replace functioning stadiums for those with
luxury suites whose tickets we can't afford. We salute & worship the players for their tremendous feats, but when they actually demand $ or power we call them spoiled millionaires who don't know what real work is. Then, when the injuries they've sustained for our entertainment
render them disabled, we're too busy with the newest generation of "line of scrimmage" fodder to care #WhatHaveYouDoneForMeLately. What should our demands be?
#1, we need to stop building @NFL owners' stadiums.
#2, we need to break up the @NFL monopoly.
#3, we need to end relationship between #military & @nfl.
#4, municipal rec departments should cease promotion of little league football & encourage sports which have lower risks of
head injury, such as #tennis #baseball #basketball #soccer #trackandfield #wrestling
I have a blog entry with my rants against the @NFL! aymplaying.wordpress.com/2017/10/10/nfl…
J'accuse!

I sometimes feel @georgialibs don't get enough high quality, academic press #history & #sociology books. Using the GA Pines automated system, people who are members of participating libraries can get a number of very good books which have recently come to my attention.
"The oldest living things in the world" by Rachel Sussman gapines.org/eg/opac/record…. This photo essay book is a beautiful, mind-expanding paean to our biosphere. (I realize this is a #science #ecology book)
"Talking to my daughter about the economy, or, how capitalism works-- and how it fails" by Yanis Varoufakis @yanisvaroufakis gapines.org/eg/opac/record…

I've been reading the e-mail from @wikileaks #Podesta hack which contains 3 attachments of transcriptions of Q & A sessions #HRC did with Goldman Sachs. wikileaks.org/podesta-emails… @BernieSanders had asked her to release transcripts or recordings. She had received hefty speaker fees.
I'm wondering, if the documents in this e-mail are an accurate representation of her appearances, why she didn't release them. There weren't any particularly "gotcha" moments where she thanked #WallSt for making her & her husband rich or where she promised to protect their
interests. A lot of what she said was uninspiring centrism, which is her brand. Several times she called for fixing #immigration, but without specifics. As part of the unwashed masses, I didn't see six figures worth of value in these words, but what do I know? Maybe they were

.@NatGeoChannel "Mars" just did a crazy abortion shame in S2E2. Amelie, a physician who was an original colonist, recognizes she is suffering psychologically after many years away from earth. She arranges to return on the next ship back, but she doesn't inform her lover Javier
until a few weeks before her scheduled departure. He doesn't take it well, & they separate. In a final predeparture physical examination, she discovers she is pregnant. She informs Javier, who indicates that he is happy to father a child. She tells him she is thinking of
terminating the pregnancy. He throws a tantrum, saying, "why r u asking me? U make all the decisions anyways." They both note that medical science hasn't determined if a human can conceive, carry and bear a healthy child in Mars's low gravity. She says, "But we do know that a

Colin Campbell, the long-time disciplinarian — now the senior executive vice-president of hockey operations with the @NHL — is shown in correspondence to term anti-violence advocates alternately as “greenpeace pukes” & “tree huggers”

#SundayMorning #SundayFunday #SundayThoughts
2/ In a 2009 email to @TSN_Sports & Bob McKenzie (@TSNBobMcKenzie) Campbell seeks counsel in an apparent desire to help remove fighting from the game: “I hated fighting . . . had to do it though . . . particularly in the 70’s, but it is stupid.”
3/ And then, four years later, in an email to fellow TSN correspondent Darren Dreger (@DarrenDreger) Colin Campbell writes he is, in fact, “for fighting.”

Eversince I said Muslims & Christians are not Tamilians, there was a barrage of abuse, filth & stink thrown at me by these brain dead so called rationalists joined by Muslims & Christians

Now time to expose them big time and prove that these categories are not Tamilians
Can one become a Tamilian just because they speak Tamiz ? Definitely not. This trio of

Rationalists (aethists)
Muslims
Christians

Say they represent Tamilians & Tamil Nadu just because they speak Tamiz. They are wrong
Other than speaking Tamil , there are certain cultural identities that are essential to categories & classify one as a Tamilian .

Let's see what these cultural identities are one by one . Let's seperate milk from water today.

Reminder: Obama’s DOJ unilaterally controlled the allocation of billions of dollars absent congressional & judicial involvement by forcing banks, under the terms of “settlement agreements”, to distribute hundreds of millions in funds to leftist groups. politicallyshort.com/2016/05/22/the…
As @KimStrassel outlined in a piece highlighting Obama’s DOJ liberal slush fund in 2015, “the department was in the process of funneling more than half-a-billion dollars to liberal activist groups.” wsj.com/articles/justi…
Moreover, by providing for direct payment from the banks to 3rd party organizations these settlement provisions evaded the Appropriations Clause and cut Congress out of the loop. Obama’s DOJ used this windfall in an unprecedented manner to operate outside of Congressional review.

How Kim & Kanye use North West as a Model for a Kids Pedophile Clothing Line: a conspiracy thread

2.) Nobody is forcing you to read it
3.) These are not my own ideas

This is going to be a long thread but it will all tie together in the end
