Embarrassment is the cost of entry. If you aren't willing to look like a foolish beginner, you'll never become a graceful master.

Today marks 14 years since 17-year-old, unarmed Trayvon Martin was shot and killed while walking home. 14 years later, we’re still demanding a country where our children can walk home in peace — without being treated like a threat.

Everybody you come across in life was created in the same area as you when the big bang happened. We are all just seeking out the energies that were created at the same time as us and when we die, we come back to each other until we meet everybody that was created around us

I’m not interested in any gods that would force me to forgive my abusers. I am interested in gods that don’t look kindly upon those who hurt the oppressed.

If you'd wear Meta glasses you'd wear a wire.

And Michael got a weird case why is he around

15 months. He'd been in the US for 15 months.

Things being temporary doesn’t make them not worth it. Everything is temporary to some extent. If I know something not gon last but I have a good time while it’s there, that don’t make it not worth it

GIRL! Put them fucking records on and play your favorite song.

The BAFTAS aren’t live so why would they leave that slur in when it could’ve been edited out?

From Hannah Beachler, production design Oscar nominee for Sinners.

The #Bafta situation 💔 From what I read, it absolutely could have been avoided if the organisers had taken the existence of ableism & racism seriously. Tourettes Action UK offers advice for example. And not editing the N-word from the pre-recorded broadcast? That was a choice. We must do better.

"Free Palestine" being censored while "nigger" is allowed to flourish in a *recorded* telecast is a microcosm of what is to exist while Black in this political moment.

You can be disabled AND racist. Just in case there was any confusion.

Shout out to Halle Berry for this interview. I was on a long car ride from Austin to Galveston and this was the podcast that my friend was playing in the car and she talked about perimenopause, menopause, and her vaginal walls breaking because of it and all the other stuff youtu.be/hW7Mld_WksU?...

My philosophy:

ProPublica published children's letters and drawings documenting their sadness and suffering at Dilley. And Dilley staff are now retaliating by confiscating kids' letters and drawings. www.sacurrent.com/news/san-ant...

Loving v. Virginia

“I don’t want to be in this place I want to go to my school.” - 7 year old imprisoned by ICE for 70 days in a concentration camp in Texas. Today, after @propublica.org published this story, the camp was raided to confiscate letters from the children. www.propublica.org/article/ice-...

Negroes, Sweet and docile, Meek, humble, and kind: Beware the day They change their mind. -Warning by Langston Hughes

“And in the end, it was them, these loved ones, these brave Black women — including the one who escaped by outsmarting him — who finally took this depraved serial killer down.”

Also note the way that the burden is always, always placed upon the left; the right must be catered to, the center must be appealed to, the left? Suck it up, accept whatever is offered, perform the labor of care and capitulation and compromise. A familiar dynamic.

One of the things language like this does is conveys the way that leftism is seen as feminized in america. Leftists are called “hysterical,” told we “throw tantrums,” and “are shrill and unreasonable.” This is the language of cultural misogyny, used to denigrate and silence women.

For nearly a year, the administration has said that DOGE had no unauthorized access to your Social Security data. A new government filing admits that was false.

today’s Annoy Squidward Day, for those who celebrate.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

the Black Panthers were right

ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.

Why did I think that girl‘s name was Pink Parentheses for the longest 😭
