Mollie’s a sociologist with a couple Masters and a PhD on the way; she specializes in borders, gender, and violence. I have two kickass daughters.

“I’m so tired of being falsely accused of being a jerk when all I’m doing is trying to help people stay in line.”
Okay, so not great on the self-awareness spectrum.

In the last two weeks I have heard at least half a dozen full hour NPR segments about deplatforming and not one has included a single sex worker, Palestine activist, free expression or digital rights expert who could help lead a more thoughtful conversation about moderation. https://twitter.com/onthemedia/status/1350432620191084544
The tech platforms were very recently conspiracy cesspools. How did it all change so quickly? @caseynewton explains

Disability SSI is *designed* to keep disabled people in poverty. It’s obscene. https://twitter.com/slooterman/status/1350455897701687297
On top of that, there are asset limits — You can’t legally save money. More than $2000 in the bank and you lose SSI.
There are some workarounds, like ABLE Accounts, but their adoption has been slow. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/06/07/your-money/able-accounts-savings-disabled.amp.html
Great capture and b&w image Kee!
