sentient [he/him]

around a dozen inmates have set themselves on fire over the last year or so to try to get transferred out of virginia’s supermax Red Onion prison after facing horrific racism and violence. three men interviewed intentionally set their legs or feet on fire knowing that there aren’t any burn centers in that part of the state and they would have to be sent to Richmond for treatment

thank you for the info! i’ll check out the wiki page

everyone remembers that despite the nuclear brinksmanship between lincoln and davis the war managed to end without turning either half of the country into radioactive ash

apparently while he was in power bolsonaro and his cronies were cooking up plans to kill lula and other high ranking PT politicians and they were discovered by the federal police. anyone have a source that goes into more depth about this? https://xcancel.com/binraccooon/status/1858979139874943075#m

user squarecoats1 on twitter has made a map with all of the contractors and subcontractors in the US involved in many of the weapons and materiel being used in the genocide, including hellfire missiles and F35s. there’s a lot of nitty gritty details in here, nearly 700 locations on the map, tracking who makes even the smallest parts of some of this stuff. they have also included a spreadsheet with the raw data that users can pore through since the site where they uploaded the map only allows 1000 visitors per month. pretty interesting
