We need them✨✨✨

Slavery never ended

“Gen Z has the lowest racial resentment of any generation ever studied.” Important work from @jakemgrumbach.bsky.social that offers a clear explanation of why there is an intense push to change school curricula to make them more white supremacist newrepublic.com/article/2030...

Anyway girls 💅🏻 like I was saying lol

In one corner we have Pornhub refusing to store users' PII & government IDs because of the myriad security problems inherent in that situation In the other corner, openAI very much wants to store your government ID attached to your gooning chats

1/ Learning loss didn’t come from “lockdowns” or remote instruction. It COMES FROM (still happening) illness. Illness caused by COVID. Illness that makes kids miss school and teachers miss teaching. SICK DAYS. And the vascular damage that causes incapacity to think & retain. This is still happening.

‘Death remains my intimate shadow partner. It has been with me since birth, always hovering close by. I understand one day we will finally waltz together into the ether. I hope when that time comes, I die with the satisfaction of a life well-lived, unapologetic, joyful, & full of love.’ —Alice Wong

This is maybe a pet peeve but I'm never gonna watch a video that the creator describes as 'rambling' or 'a ramble.' I have a lot of respect for my audiences' time and you should too. Draft, redraft, and edit.

Me (on the phone with my Mama): actually, I'm going to take a nap, I'm feeling tired. My mom: From doing what? Me: From doing nothing 😆 I want to emjoy my weekend. Her and my Dad laughing in the background lmao

US terrorism is foreign and domestic

Dear San Antonio, but ESPECIALLY Black San Antonio, or, anyone else who wants solid healthcare for birthing people round that way, my midwifery sib Shiphrah is launching her practice and could use your support (and a few specific items).

Facebook was the first step in mass surveillance, both of self and others, and now people won't stop taking videos of strangers and posting it to tiktok while at the same time your location is constantly being tracked by your phone. Hate this timeline so much.

Take a look...a bit of a stress reliever from Midway Atoll www.youtube.com/live/L3iKvwo...

I’m tired of people asking me for stuff

So we have two different strains (H5N1 and H5N5) that can infect people in the US currently. And evidence that H5N1 is asymptomatic and humans to human. When do start the vaccination conversation?

Lmao oh baby. Ain’t no way I’m about to get caught up in a panadería.

For a website where people are so confident they’re on the Superior Website, a lotta people here sure wanna spend their Friday talking about the same absolutely repugnant event

Me and my younger sis are so similar taste in clothing that once we went to the same mall and diverged in browsing/errands, intending to meet at the end. When we did, turns out we went to the same store at diff times & bought 3 of the exact same tops** 😆

"ChatGPT is my friend, ChatGPT is my therapist" Wow that's cool have you ever asked ChatGPT about of the myths of Narcissus and Pandora

You cannot save me for later. You either choose me now or not at all.

'Instead of “How are our attitudes being reflected in TV and film?” I think the better question is “How is pop culture attempting to shape and mold attitudes?”' -- @ninametz.bsky.social

....not even the half of it

And before you all start coming over here, I am not a fan of white people. I believe that your culture is at the root of the majority of the evils Colonization and white supremacy have ruined the planet. I am not your friend

Over half of Native Hawaiians now live away from Hawai‘i, yet the connection to home, culture, and identity remains unbroken. Mele ʻŌiwi Ē is a call across oceans, a reminder that wherever we stand, Hawai‘i lives within us. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iur...

Every time Covid and learning loss hits the news, people act like the only factor is folk staying home and learning online, rather than… Living through a global mass death event.

THEN YOU PURCHASE THEM AND DO NOT USE THE PROPERTY OF OTHERS

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."

Suppressing yourself = killing yourself slowly Avoid it.

i’ve been sitting with the idea that life doesn’t collapse to punish you. sometimes it breaks just enough for you to finally see what needs to be rebuilt. that space between who you were & who you’re becoming feels like a reset, but not the kind that wipes you clean. it’s the kind that reveals you.

My high school classmate Jason is a trucker who has had an on the job injury and now needs financial help while he recovers. The kindness of friends and strangers is currently our national medical safety net. Would you please consider sending $5 or more his way? Thank you!

Big brain stuff happening in Hilo. Turns out you shouldn’t drive a backhoe on a pedestrian bridge.

I just did a very quick & unofficial count: since 2020, there have been 13 books by new Māori writers published (approx 6 years). In the whole of the 2010s, there were 7 new Māori writers published. Significantly, 7 of the 13 since 2020 wrote novels. Significant change!

Make peace with your light and your dark. You are not yourself without your shadow.

Disgust towards the m1litary heightened

USA is using terrorism to take Palestinian Land.

There’s a certain dullness/smoothness to the texture of the skin and material in the video. I wish I could explain it better

Yes. And not only that: If companies paid a living wage, SNAP could be a radically smaller program.

The way I needed to see this video in my time of struggle. Part 2 in the thread. Financial depression and shame can be so isolating. I love all my people, broke or ballin 🫶🏾

A calm nervous system that’s sustained by an intentional and carefully curated environment. Dont come in here ruining shit because “you’re bored” and need to receive dopamine from toxicity. Away from me with that, demon!

Related: In the post-pandemic years, more Americans are working alone, worshipping alone, scrolling alone, exercising alone, and orgasming alone. And we’re increasingly eating alone too. jacobin.com/2025/10/solo...

Fun fact: The United States pays Cuba $4,085 a month in rent for the Guantanamo bay for the naval base, but Cuba has only once cashed a check since 1959. Castro refused to cash the checks to protest the "illegal" U.S. occupation of the land.

My mother wanted an all white dinner for her birthday tonight. I booked this restaurant inside of a cave so it looks like we're going to be doing a misa lol and even funnier it's the area of the cave I booked is called the Boveda Deseo lol

People’s lives are being changed in devastating ways every single day because of this bullshit. I hate it here. 😔🤲🏽

Anything that comes through in my email at this point will be answered accordingly on Monday-ish.

It's nighttime in Belém and all the people who didn't care about Indigenous people/Brazil haven't said a word about the Munduruku-led blockade/occupation at the entrance of the Blue Zone. They only cared about the Blue Zone occupation on Tuesday because it was trending. They're doing these memes

AI is asbestos. Excellent metaphor.

Starbucks is advertising now in Roku, now that there is a strike. And I shit you not, the advert is "Together is a Best Place to Be" Boycott. Do not cross picket lines. Do not scab.

Everything that’s bad about America is bad because of racism. Every. Thing.

"The prohibited activities would include joint research, co-authorship on papers, and advising a foreign graduate student or postdoctoral fellow. The language is retroactive, meaning any interactions during the previous 5 years could make a scientist ineligible for future federal funding."
