Your regular reminder that the Farallon Islands are part of San Francisco.

Also: there are more of them than I thought!

But I'd guess that this company isn't located on them, Google.

Wondering why your Thanksgiving groceries cost more this year? It’s because greedy corporations are charging Americans extra just to keep their stock prices high. This is outrageous. https://www.businessinsider.com/big-companies-keep-bragging-to-investors-about-price-hikes-2021-11

I'm relieved by this outcome, and disheartened by the ways in which our system is designed to produce the opposite outcome.

@joelle_emerson ("Joelle Emerson") wrote:

From the months it took for police to make arrests, to the advocacy needed from Ahmaud Arbery's family and community, to the fact that in a county where more than 1/4 of the population is Black, 11 of 12 jurors were white, this case highlights how unjust our system is.

The case had to go through 3 prosecutors before any semblance of justice was possible. The prior two wouldn’t have taken this to trial.

Social media gets a lot of crap but the amount of injustice that has been highlighted on Twitter/Facebook/etc has created positive change.

There's an ability to simultaneously release the breath we've been holding, while understanding that true justice would mean that #AhmaudArbery was still alive. Relief can be felt while still having anger that the justice system isn't & has never been abt us or valuing our lives.
