There are 2 main reasons why some people are missing limbs:

1. Cars
2. Wars

#Cars need #oil for which #wars are fought.

Eliminate oil, and car culture, and #war ends too.

Every DUI begins with a "D" for driving.
Give up driving, and never have a DUI again.

#SolarPunk futures should imagine bicycles with power assist, electric batteries and regenerative braking. And Zeppelins for slow travel across the globe.

How to Stay Safe During a Tear Gas
Attack - From a US Marine
📣📣📣📣📣
This is for the protesters

I am a former Nuclear, Biological, Chemical Defense Specialist in the US Marine Corps. Step by step, this
is how to stay as safe as possible when exposed to tear gas. I hope this is helpful.

EDIT: there is now a
captioned video available on YouTube for the deaf and hard of hearing! Stay safe.

EDIT: HERE ARE SOME FAQ's!
Q: Does milk help?.
A: NO! Milk is a low level acid and will make the sensation worse/last longer. THE BEST AND FASTEST way to alleviate symptoms is fresh air! Wait a LONG time (hours) before showering. Wash hands
with soap at any time.

Q: Will it cause an asthma attack?
A: Tear gas is not specifically designed to trigger an asthma attack, however it is a possibility.

Please note: I am NOT a medic nor posturing as one. Follow the protocol you're familiar with and get to a hospital
if you feel an attack coming on. PLEASE talk to your doctor about any/all specific health concerns before putting yourself in an uncertain position.

Q: How about a mini fan?
A: YES! Great idea. A mini fan will help create airflow, therefore helping the powder dry.*

Q: Leaf blower?
A: Not advisable, especially at close range. The wind is too strong, and too direct. Runs the risk of pushing
powder further into the pores. Mini fan for a gentle wind is a good idea.

Q: Can I wear my contacts?
A: Not advisable. Wear glasses if you have them. lf powder gets between your eye and your contact, it could potentially scratch your cornea.

Q: Should I wear swim goggles?
A: YES! Excellent idea! Thick plastic swim or ski goggles, when worn correctly, could be very effective
in protecting your eyes!

‼️Note: powder will collect around the outside. Be careful taking them off.

Q: What else can I wear to protect myself?
A: Long sleeves, pants, high socks, closed-toe shoes, scarves, hats, and gloves will do a lot to protect your
skin! Cover as much of yourself as you can. It won't stop all of the powder from reaching your skin, but a barrier will stop some.

Q: Will it come out of my clothes?
A: YES! Wash them separately from other laundry twice. It will all come out.

I'm deeply disappointed to hear about the recent retreat of #DEI programs in the tech industry. We must remember that #JusticeForGeorgeFloyd is not a slogan, but a cause that requires commitment and dedication from us all. I urge all tech companies to live up to their promises and recommit to these vital programs. #EqualityForAll #NoRetreat #NoSurrender http://www.techmeme.com/231225/p5#a231225p5

New lawsuit against the US by #protesters alleges negligence, battery in 2020 clashes in Oregon

AP, Dec. 20, 2023

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — "Protesters who were injured by federal law enforcement officers in Portland more than three years ago have filed a new lawsuit alleging negligence and battery.

"In July 2020, 'the federal government unleashed unprecedented and sustained violence and intimidation on the people of Portland,' the lawsuit states. Protesters after that filed lawsuits against the Trump administration, federal law enforcement agencies and individual officers, Oregon Public Broadcasting reported. Many of the lawsuits relied on a type of claim that the U.S. Supreme Court has since gutted.

"Tuesday’s lawsuit raises similar issues and involves the same injured protesters but was filed under a different federal legal theory, said David Sugerman, one of the attorneys involved.

"Thousands of protesters in Portland took to the streets in 2020 following the death of #GeorgeFloyd in Minneapolis, part of a wave of protests nationally. The protesters in Portland at times clashed with police, and militarized federal agents were deployed to the city to quell #RacialJustice protests as they wore on.

"A 2021 report by the U.S. #DepartmentOfHomelandSecurity’s Office of Inspector General found agents lacked proper training or equipment to deal with riots and that there was no plan for operating without the help of local police, who were eventually ordered to stand down by the city. Agents also reported injuries.

"Tuesday’s lawsuit against the federal government is brought by three named protesters on behalf of 'at least 162 people,' the lawsuit states.

"One of the protesters, Nathaniel West, told Oregon Public Broadcasting he protested peacefully for more than 40 nights and was exposed to tear gas and shot at with pepper balls for doing so.

"'It’s about the next set of #activists, the next set of protesters that come along,' he said of the lawsuit. 'The #FirstAmendment right is something that we have to constantly work to preserve. … We’re really thinking about what it means to protest in #America.”

I knew that Chad Wolf was a piece of shit, and am not surprised that his DHS tried to #freecase protesters during the #georgefloyd uprising in Portland.

From #Gizmodo - Wolf requested the creation of "dossiers 'against everyone participating in the Portland protest,' regardless of whether they’d been accused of any crime" #1312 #acab #161 #justiceforgeorgefloyd #nlg #ftp

Indeed. Too many have been lost for it to feel like a true victory.
Today, #JusticeForGeorgeFloyd
Tomorrow, police reforms to prevent more deaths.
Once police are held accountable for their actions, once they learn to properly de-escalate situations rather than automatically react with violence, once the racism in the system is eradicated, then, Peace.

Finally some justice has been done.

This isn't over - we need to address policing. This is the beginning, not the end. We need to stop this from happening. We need peace. #JusticeForGeorgeFloyd

#DerekChauvin intentionally murdered George Floyd, there is no other way to interpret the full picture of what happened. Even the EMTs on scene told Derek to stop so that they could provide #GeorgeFloyd with medical attention, Derek Chauvin refused.

"Let's do this another way. Let's stop thinking our voice don't matter, and VOTE. Not just vote for the president. Vote for the preliminaries, vote for EVERYBODY. Educate yourself, know who your voting for! And THAT'S how we gonna hit em! Because it's a lot of us, and we still gonna do this peacefully!"
