Bluesky Post

TranscriptAlabama suffocated a man to death in a gas chamber tonight after starving him so he wouldn't choke on his own vomit as they did it. And this was deemed perfectly legal by multiple courts in the vaunted American legal system.

That's what happens when you value institutions over people.

Suicide in some places makes you a criminal. There's a tasteless joke here somewhere, but I'm too tired to find it.

Only if you do it wrong.

Is that what you were going for? I wouldn’t say that is tasteless. Poor taste, sure, but it does have taste.

I was thinking other actions weirdly categorized as crimes. It's too bad that anything targeting the corporate overlords is treated as worse than murder.
