Ready to see just how much a canvas can do?

Something I've learned while in law school is about the social construction of crime. I work in a legal clinic on wage theft cases, where employers have "improperly paid" workers by not paying, paying below min wage, withholding overtime, paid sick time, etc. 1/

Google HR is pure evil and thinking of other companies replicating it makes me shudder. The HR experience is often even worse than what one would complain to HR about. I’d like to know what their training is like cause it feels like they have a PhD in psychological manipulation.

So many folks (esp. the media) are missing the complete backstory on $GME and how we got here.
This has been simmering for over a year and the story behind it is great. I’ve been tracking this since September and devoured all of the details from the origin through today.

As a Jew whose family is markedly smaller because my grandfather's family members were all killed by the Nazis in the Holocaust, and as a software engineer who uses @github every day at work, I am appalled and sickened by this.
"Nazi" is not a slur.

Am crowdsourcing a list of federal laws that might have been violated today (feel free to add). Possibilities from quickly reading 18 USC (in no particular order):
1) 18 USC 2383: Rebellion or Insurrection
2) 18 USC 2384: Seditious Conspiracy
