The image consists of three panels depicting a sequence of actions involving two Stormtrooper figures from the Star Wars franchise. In the first panel, a larger Stormtrooper is seen walking towards a smaller Stormtrooper figure. The second panel shows the larger Stormtrooper reaching out towards the smaller one, which appears to be in mid-air, suggesting a playful interaction. In the final panel, the larger Stormtrooper is seen falling backward, while the smaller one is no longer in the frame, indicating a humorous or unexpected outcome. The background is blurred, focusing attention on the figures.

It's a strange kind of freedom.

And the thirteenth amendment put a limitation on the otherwise total ban on slavery and indentured servitude, "except as a punishment for crime." With the disproportional minority populations in prison, they really just consolidated slavery.

It's kinda weird that I wasn't taught that part in high school.

The #USA has one of (traditionally the highest) #IncarcertationRate both absolute and espechally relative per capita with >650 per 100k population.

  • At least by any verifyable metrics and guesstimates. Maybe #NorthKorea has a higher #incarceration rate but it's shocking that even by absolute numbers the #US beats the "P.R." #China and #India despite the former being a totalitarian dictatorship and the latter the most poplated nation on earth, outnumbering the US almost 4:1...

You can thank the #ForProfitPrison / #PrisonIndustry for that!:

  • Where most nations (i.e. #Germany) will usually sentence non-violent offenders (i.e. drug possession) to fines and resocialization (i.e. rehab) the USA slaps mandatory minimums at them for no good reason.

The image shows a yellow and black tape measure leaning against a wall. The tape measure is positioned on a piece of newspaper, with its retractable tape partially extended. The background includes a white wall and a clear plastic container with some items inside. The text "I pity the tool. IYKYK!" is overlaid at the top of the image in bold black letters. The tape measure appears to be slightly worn, with visible scratches and marks. The overall setting suggests a casual, possibly home improvement environment.
