As someone who's been single for over 14yrs, the few years I was not celibate, this was it.

In 2020 we published in TIME about the $50 trillion upward redistribution of income since 1975. The editors told us it was one of their most widely read online pieces ever, and begged us for more. Four years later we pitched an update ($79 trillion)—they weren't interested. time.com/5888024/50-t...

Communication is never hard for someone who actually wants you.

I have to go outside in the rain 😭 spoke too soon. Shit

ICE in DC, driving a white SUV with Ohio Plates. Need to dox him and his entire life. If migrants deserve no peace, then this mofo deserves none.

Some variation of YEA, OK ... or if I'm really pissed I skip straight to silence bc my granny taught me to keep quiet if I had nothing nice to say

I'm going to read that later when I'm not in the presence of other folks so I can cry in peace

What does it mean to mother when you've never been mothered yourself? In a powerful story of healing and forgiveness, Jamaican-American poet and LGBTQ+ activist Staceyann Chin re-imagines mothering after being abandoned by her own. www.pbs.org/pov/films/mo...

😭😭 the dog jumped when she said white

Guys… i think ice picked the wrong city to 🤬 with

Jill Scott funny AF

talked abt useful tools that help you survive, but become harmful when you hold on to them for too long. all of this comes to mind with these clips... her pt abt the collective trying to snuff out individualism is VERY interesting 50+ yrs later when the individual is killing collectivism 2/2

Pls keep giving me excuses to not partake in all that shit lolol

If I’m real, none of the beauty maintenance women do is relaxing. Getting my hair done is tedious and uncomfortable, getting. My nails done is tedious and often disappointing, hair removal is torture. What girly thing is relaxing other than the spa?

That anger, that weariness, that dismissal you call divisive and unproductive *comes from someplace.* In this case from 2023.

A couple of parking signs for anyone who wants to print them out for this coming Saturday.

more proof of their cognitive dissonance... Black folks, pls retain (revive!!!!!!) your ability to call a spade, a spade

If you have not done the work to decolonize your understanding & practice of religion it's hard to have honest convos about it. Practicing the Christianity (or any religion for that matter) that has been crafted by and in the image of European men (I'm looking at you King James) isn't meant for us.

That's the real reason I had such a hard time getting out of bed. It's been rainy all day. I just want snuggles

Hard af. So nice from inside

Wait, did they just refer you to Twitter??!

This is the response I received from ICE when I inquired about the 13-year-old they abducted from Everett, Mass. on Friday:

Make yourself the center of your life, your healing, your peace, your growth. Because until you do, you will keep mistaking pain for love and settling for less than you deserve.

🗣

Speaking of liar, who was the alleged abuser that no one named?

IKTR!!!! WAKE THE LAND & THE ANCESTORS!!!!

They know all they have to do is shout crime and the criticisms will be muted even when they’re kidnapping young children.

ok, here goes: • a stable, safe (low cost!!) home for me & kiddo •stable income/employment to afford it •a filmmaking cohort to bring my scripts to life •a worthy "my man, my man, my man" candidate •a community/village of like-minded ppl who look out for & help each other •full-body reflexology

Damn, I just got a robo call from Cass saying they kicked a student out bc he threatened a kid at another school online. I'm glad they're taking it seriously but it sucks when these kids don't see the direct effect their online lives have on their real lives.

Bitch got a neck pussy

I know it’s the most obvious thing in the world but it’s really sad that so many people have absolutely no desires or dreams in life except to accumulate money and our entire world is becoming a fucking pit because of it

When I learned that this is how folks interacted with the internet on purpose, I was like AM I DOING THIS WRONG???

Time magazine doing Nazi propaganda and using its language This is very very specific language they only had one parallel and it’s originally in German.

I exist so the love for me must exists. That’s enough for me.

Never had a subscription but this & the candy was the best part of going to the doc as a kid.

Being an ethical consumer is so hard

I hope all those Black ICE officers save their coins because they are going to be the ones taking the fall for all the illegal stuff their bosses who are not Black or of color are directing them to do. They will need those coins for good attorneys. They will go to jail, the question is how long!

I go to live shows all the time. I love music & my brain would implode without it. I have no other way of getting the music I like. Please don't give me a panic attack 😭

😭 I don't have the tools to pirate yet

Time to do my last reading before Resistance school!

I appreciate all the ones who clarified they like nerdy hoes with lil booties too. Yall real

When I decided to become a full time artist & then became homeless (unrelated AF), everybody was like SEE YOU NEED TO GO BACK TO WORK, nvm the fact that I had a stroke AT work... Me choosing life over working full time was seen as RISKY. Folks refused to help Butter bc "I told yo momma..."

Aquarius men are the bane of my existence

I love riding the train real bad. I've always wanted to take that cross country ride. Now that's a date!!

I would like $25 for some Thai food!

I'm learning this in real time

I shared this video through @redpopnews.bsky.social about the Indigenous Peoples' Day celebration at the Getty because it was beautiful to share our cultures and to be appreciated for who we are as Native people beyond the Hollywood tropes and Stereotypes and not as relics of the past.

Esp with creatives lmao I have to remind folks that talking is cool but what are we DOING & can we started right now?? Lol

As a kid who had to take care of themselves I actually did have to know everyone's number by heart who could help me if my mom put me in a bad way. I still know my great granny's number & majority of the landlines that no longer exist. When cell phones came along, no reason to remember anymore

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.
