When the government carries out cruelty and injustice while claiming to be “Christian” and we Christians do not speak out against it, we are not only giving tacit support of this evil, we surrender the reputation of our entire faith to those carrying out evil in our name.

Ready to get a passport and just get away. Sick of this place

I’m ready to just get up out of here. Nothing left for me here. Sick of the lack of infrastructure in this state.

It was “protect the children” until it came to immigrant children. It was “protect the children” until it came to gun violence. It was “protect the children” until it came to food assistance. It was “protect the children” until it came to healthcare. It was never about protecting children.

Oh, just sitting up late on an early Friday morning, music playing from an algorithm of favorites on Youtube Music while each song from a different era inspires vignettes of memories from my last 42 years on this tiny blue marble. Fighting back tears with each bittersweet memory, especially those

I've talked to people on the ground about the strike here tomorrow, and the single thing everyone brings up is just how shockingly wide the support for the strike is. Businesses that no one would have expected to support it are doing so.

Mississippi is "considering" getting rid of property taxes. Which we won't do. But it's a nasty little ploy - a cowboy hat dolt will propose it, some voters will think it sounds good, the legislature will drop it, THEN they'll say they're cutting taxes on second homes over 500k "for the people."

Perhaps the biggest lesson for me from 2025 is that the grass is not necessarily greener on the other side; sometimes it’s best to stick to what you know. Don’t walk away from blessings you already were blessed with.

Mom, I miss you so much, esp these days, not just for the holidays, but because life is hitting from all directions rn. Phone cut off, car repo'd last wk, now im facing eviction. Sometimes i just want to be where you are, over the 🌈. Can't believe youve been gone a whole year 💔💔💔💔💔

Tapper: This is one of the documents the DOJ released. It’s 100 pages. It’s all black. That’s the transparency we’re getting.

Not for me. Yall enjoy, tho

These magas lose their minds over gender markers + trans issues but wanna force everyone to acknowledge new names under Trump admin? Oh. My pronouns are thought/so.

This will wind up being my generation’s Berlin Wall moment. And it doesn’t feel too long ago; I was alive when that wall came down. I might have been in kindergarten or so but I barely remember a librarian or teacher saying “this” country doesn’t exist anymore.

🌟 Portland, OR is the host city for the 2026 Indigenous Media Conference, July 22–24! Program proposals open through Feb. 20, 2026 tinyurl.com/IMC26RFP. ✨ #IJA2026 #IndigenousMedia #IndigenousJournalists #PortlandEvents #IJACommunity

One of the biggest moments of my career: USCIS canceled my client’s naturalization oath ceremony. We filed a lawsuit, went to trial, and the judge swore him in right there in the courtroom!

Phone line suspended. Car repo'd this morning. Eviction coming soon. Self destruct mode is almost complete. Mom's one year anniversary of her passing is almost here. Happy holidays to all.

What's on my mind, indeed.

42 revolutions around the Sun ☀️ HBD to yours truly

It’s Thanksgiving week and people in Mississippi be like:

The screens flashes “TOHCHINAH” inside Reed Green Coliseum at Southern Miss every time someone makes a 3-pointer. Translates to “three” in the Choctaw language 🏀

Attending Native American Heritage Day game at University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg. “Apakna Isht Iyah” means To the Top in Choctaw. Also, the crowd is learning the Choctaw word for THREE every time there’s a 3-pointer score. This is awesome! 🪶

The Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians received a grant for its Choctaw Dictionary project in 2020. However, as the department was nearing completion of the dictionary, the Trump administration terminated the award. buff.ly/5ApEvre

Asked about the controversy that has been rippling through Republican circles for weeks, President Donald Trump did not criticize Nick Fuentes and praised podcast host Tucker Carlson for having “said good things about me over the years.” buff.ly/98ujGZQ

Copied from ACLU Facebook page. Be careful, everyone. Journalists covering these also, please take care.

At the Temple Theater in Meridian for the free screening of Sinners; panel to discuss the film held tomorrow at The Max museum downtown tomorrow night

Choctaw word of the day: Yakni = land, ground, Earth, 🌎 Word works within the context. Class dismissed. Entry from the new MBCI dictionary 📖: https://dictionary.choctaw.org/en/word?word=yakni

Wondering if someone will have a one-hit wonder and sing about 2025 like Bowling for Soup did? 🤔

I think a beach 🏝️ vacation is in order. Ain’t gotta wait on nobody, don’t have to submit permission, JUST GO. Now THAT’S work-life balance!

FREEDOM!! Big weight off my shoulders. I can exhale now. Anxiety levels dropped significantly. Feels like I can tackle the day. ☀️ Rest, relax, and move forward. ➡️

Not having a wonderful day. Just sick and tired of everything

My fellow Americans: I see that we are all still here. Quit fooling around and let’s try to make this a better place, I mean DAMN. Not yall falling for this mess again. I thought we were smarter than that. Anyway; carry on. It’s just now Wednesday

I escaped Mississippi’s borders and the Bsky ban within it, and I noticed it didn’t immediately unblock me as I crossed the state line. I kept refreshing and going to airplane mode. Finally reached New Orleans and I was able to log in and post this. The block sucks! Boo 😒
