posting because some people see the united states as a monolith run by a crazy person (that part is true), but we also have individual state governments trying their best despite all that.

Report COVID-19 Quits or Work Refusals when Work is Available

thebeachboys:

The state of Ohio has set up a snitching website where employers can report employees who don’t come back to work in the middle of a pandemic and it’s being used to kick people off of unemployment benefits, giving them the option to either risk their lives by coming to work or face starvation or homelessness. 

i strongly urge everyone if you have the time to fill out as many fake submissions as you can/want to in order to sabotage this process and save lives. it’s a pretty short process. joke ones are fun to make but also ones that at least appear serious on the surface will probably waste more time for these fascists

also as of a few hours ago the forms were being sent to ucbenprotest@jfs.ohio.gov

Mary go round at home ?

Forget what she’s wearing, are we just going to ignore the sheer strength she displayed? Sis is holding herself up extended her torso to an obtuse angle and did a situp with a child and didn’t slip a millimeter. ???

Reblogging for one of the best analogies of this election cycle I’ve ever read.

Joe Biden is chemo. Chemo sucks and sorta tries to kill you, but you take it because it kills your cancer faster.

The current state of affairs with regards to how the country’s being run? Cancer. 

Bernie Sanders would have been a surgery that cuts the tumor out without long-term damage, but from the looks of it we’re at the point where that’s not a viable option.

Not voting is essential oils: it smells nice and does nothing.

Listen, I liked Sanders. But the Supreme Court is the only thing I care about right now.

If you vote for anyone that isn’t the Democrat nominee, we are looking at a 7-2 right-wing SCOTUS. For how long? 30-40 YEARS.

RBG is 87. Breyer is 81. Chances of them making it to 2024 are not great.

For the record, I think this system is FUCKED and this isn’t how SCOTUS composition should be decided, but it is how it is right now.

If you care about the rights of women, of minorities of any kind, you really need to vote for the democrat nominee. No third parties or write ins. No abstaining. And for crying out loud, no assuming that Trump won’t win even if you don’t vote. VOTE BLUE.

The rest of the world: So… you’re a big country?

The states, standing on each other’s shoulders: Y- yes,,,

Do non-americans realize that the United States is literally just a bunch of countries in a trench coat that agreed to be semi-nice to each other in order to sneak into the Big Boy Club? Because let’s be honest that’s just what the USA is

I love how everyone who’s reblogged this hasn’t added anything on or tagged anything on it. They’re all just like “Yeah. That’s it. That’s the entire United States summed up in one post-”
