My daughter was just telling me about a new fad in the manosphere — heightism. They are allegedly claiming that being short is worse than racism and sexism. How about that?! So unhealthy.

How do you know if the fruits and vegetables you buy at the grocery store come from farms where workers were harmed? Read this thread by our reporter @maxblau.bsky.social 🧵
Max BlauI’ve reported at length about abuses of foreign farmworkers who come to the U.S. on H-2A visas: stolen wages, guns pointed in their faces. One woman I met was kidnapped, raped and nearly killed. I wanted to know: How do I tell if the produce I buy is part of the problem? 👇

Dozens of immigrants at Miami’s Federal Detention Facility are trapped in brutal heat with no AC, sleeping in underwear, and finding roaches in their food. When one spoke out, he was thrown into solitary. Total abuse. We demand an immediate investigation and human rights NOW! 🎥 tomaskenn
This is so on brand. We have armed dysregulated predators and released them to hunt our neighbors. I have a family member dealing with this type on many-boy and it is all so on brand. So many men need help. They are lost and lashing out.
Prem Thakker ツWow. The ICE shooter in Maine asked his ex-wife to "to lie for him and to cover for his character." She said he was abusive and had previously reported concerns about him to his military superiors. He was also a volunteer firefighter, but was removed after several spats with department leadership.
