One of the fucked up parts is that if you have a felony conviction you aren't allowed to serve as a firefighter after finishing out your sentencing even if you have experience fighting wild fires for no pay.
Not quite last week but on New Year's eve a Palestinian comrade we have been working with to coordinate funds and food aid for families in Gaza sent us one of the most surreal images I have ever seen.

A picture of the fruits of our efforts in the form of the hexbear logo on a huge bag of flour that has made it to the Gaza strip. Absolutely wild that the last thing I saw on our obscure little shitposting site in 2024 was much needed material aid with our site banner and a thank you message in Arabic in the middle of a warzone. We often talk about posting not being praxis but every now and then this wonderful community surprises me in incredible ways.
Turns our walking everywhere for my entire 40 years is gonna pay off in a big way lol
@barryamelton@lemmy.ml This post is not equating the Nazis with an actual socialist party, though I agree it could be a bit more clear, what it seems to be saying is that more insular homogenous communities are more likely breeding grounds for fascism.
When I was in kindergarten I broke a bullies nose and for that they wanted to hold me back a grade to separate us instead of punishing the racist homophonic bully in any way.
lmao are they actually going to go through with this bullshit?!
yeah but it was still funny

fr a 22 year old is still just a fuckin kid. I'm 40 this year and I would never ever consider dating a 22 year old. 30 maybe, but like how can you have anything in common with someone 20 years younger than you power dynamics aside. All that said 22 and 18 is a lot better than the relationships a lot of my girl friends as a teenager got into.
Edit: okay it was a troop fuck him he deserved the beating even if it was for the wrong reasons.
Correct especially in rural areas all firefighters are volunteers and/or prison labor
