  • US | Colorado judge rejects plea deal for funeral director who acknowledged abusing 191 corpses

  • I remember this story breaking from the pandemic and I don't even live in CO. Fuck those willfully horrid people.

  • Why do conservatives write LIKE THIS?

  • No it isn't.

    (Yes, you're correct)

  • No it ISN'T, it's just CONTRADICTION.

  • From the guy who was moderate for 8 years when we needed radical change to counter fascism. He had a supermajority in Congress for 2 years. He was still trying to be "fair" while fighting unadulterated evil. How did that work out? Why does his opinion matter, because he's one of the "safe" establishment Democrats who is starting to realize what they forfeited?

  • Greed, and powerful interests controlling communication channels, misleading some and preying on the human weaknesses of many others.

  • FTC Sues Gym Chains for Making It Hard to Cancel Memberships

  • 5 minute rule is good, also because people coming into a gym or starting a new exercise routine have a lot of energy and no muscular endurance nor is their body used to working out the joints, tendons etc. they will push themselves to "work hard and make progress" and then be in pain and it builds fear and reinforces negatively working out. Many a ship sunk by not really, really easing in.

    Even a super out of shape body is amazingly capable of exercise and movement if you ease into it. Then when you have some baseline with your body "ok we can walk for 20 minutes now"/run for t minutes now/do x situps etc., then you can slowly start to add intensity, weight, etc.

    Go slow, go light, succeed.

  • Hate your job? How to have more fun at work - from ‘thin-slicing’ your joy to expressing your personality

    Jump

  • Talk about forming a union. If for no other reason it gives you a legally protected way to talk about how shit your job is to your coworkers, how poor your manager is, and then go for things that actually matter; real job descriptions, pay increases, real medical insurance at affordable rates, real PTO, real accountability policy consistency, etc.

    Going through that kind of exercise will empower you more than you ever thought, bring you joy, and show you life doesn't have to be riding on someone else's train to hell.

  • Passing a resolution is a huge step forward?

    REG: Right. Now, uh, item four: attainment of world supremacy within the next five years. Uh, Francis, you've been doing some work on this.

    FRANCIS: Yeah. Thank you, Reg. Well, quite frankly, siblings, I think five years is optimistic, unless we can smash the Roman empire within the next twelve months.

    REG: Twelve months?

    FRANCIS: Yeah, twelve months. And, let's face it. As empires go, this is the big one, so we've got to get up off our arses and stop just talking about it!

    COMMANDOS: Hear! Hear!

    LORETTA: I agree. It's action that counts, not words, and we need action now.

    COMMANDOS: Hear! Hear!

    REG: You're right. We could sit around here all day talking, passing resolutions, making clever speeches. It's not going to shift one Roman soldier!

    FRANCIS: So, let's just stop gabbing on about it. It's completely pointless and it's getting us nowhere!

    COMMANDOS: Right!

    LORETTA: I agree. This is a complete waste of time.

    bam

    JUDITH: They've arrested Brian!

    REG: What?

    COMMANDOS: What?

    JUDITH: They've dragged him off! They're going to crucify him!

    REG: Right! This calls for immediate discussion!

    COMMANDO #1: Yeah.

    JUDITH: What?!

    COMMANDO #2: Immediate.

    COMMANDO #1: Right.

    LORETTA: New motion?

    REG: Completely new motion, eh, that, ah-- that there be, ah, immediate action--

    FRANCIS: Ah, once the vote has been taken.

    REG: Well, obviously once the vote's been taken. You can't act another resolution till you've voted on it...

    JUDITH: Reg, for God's sake, let's go now!

    REG: Yeah. Yeah.

    JUDITH: Please!

    REG: Right. Right.

    FRANCIS: Fine.

    REG: In the-- in the light of fresh information from, ahh, sibling Judith--

    LORETTA: Ah, not so fast, Reg.

    JUDITH: Reg, for God's sake, it's perfectly simple. All you've got to do is to go out of that door now, and try to stop the Romans' nailing him up! It's happening, Reg! Something's actually happening, Reg! Can't you understand?! Ohhh!

    slam

    REG: Hm. Hm.

    FRANCIS: Oh, dear.

  • Trump’s Rollback of Rules for Mental Health Coverage Could Lead More Americans to Go Without Care

    Jump

  • My company just started working with a 3rd party therapy and coaching company, paying out of their pocket for employees so they can easily find and access mental health care. The only problem is there are limits on how many sessions you can do a year because these companies can't act as primary mental health care. You know, the kind the insurers don't provide because it takes months to find someone.

    Mad max on the way

  • Flight attendants picket Edmonton airport for fair pay, defying federal strike ban

    Jump

  • The idea that the former legal counsel for air Canada is now the head of the labor board ordering the union she used to fight against back to work for her former management colleagues as the neutral state facilitating between labor and capital....yeah get fucked. The fact the union asked her to recuse herself and she refused...what else do you need to know?

    Fight tooth and nail and get in the mud, corporate fascists have for decades, it's why the world is turning to shit.

  • ...exposure to what is effectively running a small buisness under the worst possible circumstances.

    That is the funniest damn thing I've read in a long time, so true. It's like a zero star motel where the employees are the customers with burning man and some ted talks thrown in. If you get that into the black and manage to avoid a subpoena, you are ready to take a company public.

  • Strange how the powerful's chosen candidates whose campaigns they fund have tended throughout history to not pass legislation the would have consequences for their funders. It almost makes me want to go out on a limb and say the system disproportionately benefits the wealthy at the expense of the poor who can't just buy their way out of consequences.
