Crimes committed by US soldiers were found as early as when US troops were first stationed in south Korea. According to the south Korean government’s official statistics, 50,082 crimes were committed by US soldiers from 1967 to 1998 (including those by soldiers’ families), and 56,904 US soldiers were involved (including soldiers’ families) in these crimes. The statistics imply that the actual figure may be higher if take into account those cases not handled by the south Korean police. Based on the statistics, the total number of crimes committed by US soldiers since September 8, 1945 (when they were first stationed in Korea) is estimated to be around 100,000. Unfortunately the south Korean government does not have statistics on US soldiers’ crimes committed before 1967, because SOFA (Status of Forces Agreement) went into effect in 1967, allowing the south Korean court jurisdiction over crimes committed by US soldiers with narrow and limited application.

as promised, the transplanting tutorial
most sources make transplanting sound incredibly difficult, but transplanting young seedlings from areas with sparse dirt, like a driveway or roadside, is actually incredibly easy and can get you some great stuff. Once I worked out the method, i've had a very high survival rate
it took me like a month of trial and error to figure this out so you don't have to.
Feel free to repost, no need for credit

You have been robbed of your surplus labor value. You are more efficient and more productive, yet your wages are stagnant and your pensions have been eliminated. You are given no company loyalty and your worker solidarity has been eradicated by corporate management and lobbyists.
We have billionaires because they stole your American Dream and gave you debt and fear.

the left will fail and keep failing as long as it doesn't offer joy or a vision of the future. Like chris smalls and the union organizers didn't win by writing scathing op-eds about Amazon and sending out long dry newsletters with donation links about Amazon's unfair labor practices to employees, they won by literally meeting people where they were at, at the bus stop where the workers gathered to go home, and hosting cookouts and bonfires. He ate with people and smoked with them and talked to them about their lives and the job, about their rights as workers and how life could be better. He brought joy to them!!! And food and community!! And that's how one of the biggest victories for labor in a century was won. If I can't dance I don't want to be in your revolution

anti-China content dominates the news cycle so thoroughly, and is so uncontroversial at this point that I think it’s easy to forget that there was a time when it didn’t. the way that (white) Americans on the left and the right have united behind a warmongering vitriol for China and literally anything it does is fucking terrifying and the resulting racist violence should not be shocking

Call me crazy, but it scares the willies out of me when I see news stories with the phrase, “global population at risk.” Scientists have created a life-threatening virus that closely resembles the 1918 Spanish flu strain that killed an estimated 50m people.

Just in case we suddenly disappear. Tumblr is actively censoring Black and Native people.

About The Data
Increasing transparency in the criminal justice system is of vital importance to us at the Texas Justice Initiative. Our work relies on the use of information that can be released to the public.
Currently on our website, we compile data about three main incident types that occur in Texas:
Injury of officer(s) and/or civilian(s): Any shooting of or by a Texas peace officer, occurring while the officer is on- or off-duty, causing an injury.
Death of officer(s) and/or civilian(s): Any fatal shooting of or by a Texas peace officer, occurring while the officer is on- or off-duty.
Death in custody: Any death of an individual while they are in a penal institution, in the custody of a peace officer or as a result of a peace officer’s use of force, in a jail, correctional facility, or state juvenile facility dies.
After an incident, the governmental agency in which it occurred (i.e. a county jail etc.) is required to file a report for the respective incident (1, 2, 3) with the Texas Office of the Attorney General (OAG) within 30 days.
The Texas OAG publishes the raw .PDFs of these reports. Through open records requests filed monthly, TJI obtains data from the reports through the Texas OAG.
We then clean, analyze, and present the data to the public – both in the form of a full data set and in comparative graphics – through our analysis pipeline.
Our analysis pipeline is summarized below. The scripts we use in the analysis pipeline can be found on our GitHub page.
