That’s not quite true. The reporter behind the story, Daphne Caruana Galizia, was murdered.
Not just murdered, that could have been coincidence.
She was murdered with a fucking car bomb.
That’s not a botched robbery or a serial killer, that’s a professional assassination. Someone with money and political power, someone you might have voted for, planned and paid for this homicide.
An international group of journalists still collaborate to continue her work. It’s called The Daphne Project.
You’ll never catch nonsense like that in a free country like America!!!

im getting the "hi op what the FUCK does this mean im shaking" responses to this as if this isnt literally a completely self-explanatory diagram
the womens uniforms in athletics stuff always made me uncomfortable. Like, if you look at womens vs. mens gymnastics uniforms the difference is STARK. And given the male gymnasts seem to get by with their uniforms it doesn’t seem like it’s true that you need there to be that little clothing to allow the hard to do moves or whatever.
(Trigger warning for abuse, electroshock therapy, torture, and ableism.)
The US court has overturned the ban on shock devices being used against disabled students, predominantly autistic students in the US.
The shock device being legalized is called the graduated electronic decelerator (or GED). This is a torture device that is used to ‘correct’ autistic behaviors / symptoms. Autistic people are shocked for stimming, and for having meltdowns, ect. This device was made popular by a behavioral center (the Judge Rosenberg Center, specifically) that is infamous for its abuse and torture of autistic / disabled patients.
(Image ID: someone is holding their arm out and resting it on a table, with their sleeve rolled up. Attached to their arm are wires, which connect to a small cube device.)
This is what the device looks like. It sends electric shocks into the victim’s skin; the victim often being restrained and held against their will. This is torture. GEDs have been reported to cause intense psychological trauma, PTSD, and physical injuries.
In March of 2020, the FDA ruled for GEDs to be banned. (Although, of course, they were still illegally used at a number of places.) This ruling has recently been appealed, and today, the US court of appeals has re-regulated the law to stop the use of GED. Sounds great, right? It would be!
... If not for a huge loophole in the wording, which basically allows this torture to continue. This device is going to have continued use on autistic students in order to “correct their behavior.”
Great question! You can:

As someone who lives in the Balkans I can confirm. We have Internet only thanks to our Donkey, Dimitri, who runs in a treadmill which generates electricity.
Reblogging to thank Dimitri for his service
