As a retired couple, we are working to reduce our expenses, not increase them. Essential living costs, such as electricity, should not rise simply because of a business decision to expand or improve capabilities. These types of costs should not be passed on to customers, particularly those living on fixed or limited incomes. We respectfully ask that you consider adjusting the rates so they are fair and not punitive to customers.
Michele supported: Audit and refund Duke Energy customers in NC/SCI am voicing my concern about the rate hikes from Duke Energy. I am elderly & on a fixed income, and the recent utility hikes are squeezing my budget to a breaking point. Please do not allow AI centers to function off of the citizens backs and pocketbooks.
Elaine supported: Audit and refund Duke Energy customers in NC/SCAs a new mom who has had a 13 year career in marketing, this is absolutely disgusting to me. Yes, we can be cheeky with marketing campaigns, however they should never, ever sexualize items that surround our children. The Frida brand should be held accountable for these disturbing ads and their social media posts that use innuendos and remove them. Protect the innocence of children and the products that are associated with them.
Gillian supported: Hold FridaBaby accountable for their se*ualization of BABIES in their marketingI’ve purchased a lot from Frida mom, I’m completely heartbroken over this. I don’t think changing advertising tactics is enough. I will NOT support a business that is sexualizing our children.
Mali supported: Hold FridaBaby accountable for their se*ualization of BABIES in their marketingI've always known that sexual innuendos on product packaging and ads are a common marketing tactic, but when it comes to products for CHILDREN AND BABIES it's absolutely disgusting. I can't believe that not only did someone think it was appropriate to include sex jokes on a product for babies and I especially can't believe it got approved. Pedophilia and child abuse is absolutely sickening and as a victim of both I feel that we need to be protecting our children, and even though it may be "just a joke", it's not at all funny and we are putting kids at risk of harm through making stuff like this acceptable. F*ck Frida and every single person responsible for approving of the packaging.
Ivy supported: Hold FridaBaby accountable for their se*ualization of BABIES in their marketingA lot of this is caused by PALY and the parents at PALY. As a former paly student, I can attest that paly is insanely difficult. Not only are the classes like 1.5 or 2 times as hard as normal high schools, it is also expected that you get straight As instead of Bs and Cs (like normal schools). This is because parents pushed for harder classes, and maybe even because the school board wants to make more money by having higher scores. Also, parents don’t step up because they think “oh my child would never do this” “oh they’d tell me” “oh I could fix their mental health”. No. Maybe some, but not all. For every kid that kills themself, 50 more are struggling with depression, and 200 more are stressed and overwhelmed. Sure, paly students generally go on to have better careers than the average student, but what about the sacrifices? What about the people who burnout in HS or college? What about the many who don’t even care about the advanced courses they do? I’m sure every paly student reading this knows friends whose parents made them take advanced courses that they hate. I wonder how many go on to struggle with mental health for their whole life (however short it may end up being). And you know what’s sad? The school doesn’t even care. It’s their policy to mention it once, because it’s too obvious to hide, then never speak of it again. Paly ASB isn’t even allowed to hold memorials because the idea is to make people “forget about it”. The school thinks that by ignoring the dead student’s life and pain, they prevent suicides, but all they do is tell students how little a student’s life is worth. If a literal child dies, their life is worth a single message to all of the students (which chatGPT said was polished with AI) and that’s it. You know who didn’t “forget” about Ash’s suicide? The person who just killed herself. It was her number one reason to do it. Maybe if the school had respected Ash’s death, she could have found more peace with it. Maybe if she was able to get actual school therapy she wouldn’t have killed herself. Maybe if the meager “mental help” the school offers didn’t have a reputation for notifying parents, she would have sought help. Maybe if she had actual free time (a rare commodity for a paly student) she could have had time for school therapy, or time to mentally recuperate. Maybe if the school had even bothered to change a single thing after Ash’s death, Summer would still be here. But she’s not. And she will never come back.
Brooke supported: Petition for Active Suicide Prevention at PAUSDAs a police officer in Rhome who has to deal with this intersection every time I work, I say this is way overdue!
Aaron supported: Install a traffic light at By Well Estates and Highway 114I've been assaulted by a family member hardly that much older than me as a child, and was told it was simply curiosity when I broke down admitting it happened several years later due to the guilt I didn't stop it. I felt dramatic, and overly emotional about something miniscule. It is not miniscule, all voices deserve to be heard and all offenders should face punishment. Keep this man behind bars. All of my love and hope to every victim out there.
Cassidy supported: Keep a convicted sexual abuser behind barsMy biological father also SAd me as a kid, I never talked about it until after his suicide. He was going to jail for SA against my older sister, our step mom found out and turned him in. We’ll never get justice and I never want a girl to feel powerless like I did. So I’m here, and I care.
Mariah supported: Keep a convicted sexual abuser behind barsYou’re not alone — a community of supporters is ready to back you.
