When I was little I used to be afraid of storms. I guess now I like them because it’s nice to see something that displays how I feel on the inside and can’t explain.
On this day, 5 December 1955, four days after the arrest of Rosa Parks for refusing to vacate her seat in the “colored” section of a segregated bus for a white passenger, the Montgomery bus boycott began. A seminal moment in the civil rights movement, not just for racial equality but also as part of Black women’s struggles against sexual violence. Sexual harassment and assault of Black women, predominantly domestic workers, was rife on the city’s buses. In the lead-up to the boycott, dozens of women had lodged complaints about nasty, sexualized insults, inappropriate touching, and physical abuse by drivers.

So they’re gonna undercut pharmacies until they corner the market and then jack prices back up, but higher than before and reep all that profit. Right?
Not only will it give Amazon a new market to lord over, but more data on its customers. Knowing what illnesses a person has will help them sell other items by advertising things that will seem tantalizing. Bipolar makes you impulse buy? Amazon will know that. Depression makes you crave sweets? Amazon can sell that. Bezos doesn’t care how predatory this business practice is because he’s a monster and all of humanity is his prey.
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
