I hate it here.

A viral video about a man named Solomon Fairfax, who earned the nickname the "Grim Reaper" of Charleston after spending years killing slaveholders, has hundreds of thousands of likes and shares. There’s just one problem: Solomon Fairfax doesn't exist

WTFDYM Ruth E. Carter didn’t win Best Costume Design?

Wild as it is that someone’s “sacred fertility” is being “protected” against their will, it’s really not that large of a leap from forcing people to wait until they’re a certain age/have a certain amount of kids before performing a hysterectomy. The goal posts have been waiting to be moved

Rep. Al Green was holding a sign that reads "Black People Aren't Apes" at the #SOTU:

Good morning & remember, nothing or no one is stopping US from having a great day today. 🫶🏾

Henceforth, I will be describing the way that U.S. men’s hockey spectacularly squandered good will, brand recognition, and fan loyalty as “pulled a Target.” They pulled a Target.

Felt this exchange deep in my spirit

Rep. Tony Gonzales says “I am not going to resign"

If you celebrate with that man, you're as big an asshole as he is.

This is WHY you shouldn’t shovel too much snow at once. Be safe yall ⬇️

Them immediately telling us he has Tourettes feels like they don’t want us to get mad. It’s still egregious af. Lmao

And he didn’t have any other outbursts? Is that particular slur part of his regular tics…?

All piercing bumps aren’t keloids. And y’all need to stop playing with your piercings - even if they’re 20 years old

After everything I’ve seen from Black Texans in Texas about this primary, I’m simply blocking anyone who’s saying that white dude is “more electable.” I’m not arguing, I’m not asking questions, I’m not reading explanations. Just blocking

While I understand the need for distinction since society will see skinfolk and label them kinfolk (looking at every news outlet that labeled Lupita “African American” when she won her Oscar, whole time she’s *Kenyan Mexican*), the ADOS/FBA folks come across like the Hebrew Israelite folks to me

MILAN (AP) — The U.S beats Canada 2-1 in overtime to win its first men’s hockey championship at the Olympics since 1980.

Saw Ryan Coogler won a #BAFTA for Best Screenplay (Original) and started crying like he’s actually my family. So happy for him

Posts like this are how I know I’m perpetually online & that others are not. See, I know this practice started because certain apps were censoring folks via violations/shadowbanning/demonetizations/complete banning for using the actual words, and apparently others think folks are doing it for kicks

Did anybody actually read the article? The person who said the slur is the one who threw the punch (because the person she said the slur to tried to take her picture/record her)

Most of the taxes Trump imposed on imported goods last year are illegal, the Supreme Court ruled, but it seems unlikely American consumers will get their money back

Happy Black History Month. More Black Excellence you might not know. TJ Marshall patented a fire extinguisher system in which water is pumped through pipes in buildings to individual sprinkler heads. Marshall’s fire-extinguishing sprinkler system has been in use in the United States since 1874.

These facts

Not the point, but I was right now years old when I found out her name is Sarah Ferguson

Maybe we ARE still successfully gatekeeping. I’m not even mad at this

We know the system is bullshit, but if you’re not gonna be Jill Steining it and not actively working to dismantle & replace the system until it’s a presidential election, shut up. And if you’re only going after Democrats (in and out of power), shut up. We exist in a 2-party system

Just saw a museum say they have an exhibit with an AI-generated Frederick Douglass to imagine what he may have looked and sounded like, as if that Negro wasn’t purposely the most photographed Negro in the whole damn world

A new report that a GOP lawmaker had an affair with an aide who later died by suicide has upended a close primary election

Especially if there are kids involved

Tell me you’ve never played Oregon Trail and had follow up lessons about it without telling me

Free shipping this weekend if you order 6-12 boxes! My daughter’s site is linked in the quoted post.

She’s in the comments saying it’s not a joke, but someone also pointed out that she mentioned hearing about this mess two years before making this TikTok (which is from like November 2025, but is now getting traction from Black people calling out how gross this is)

If the #WNBA ends up having a scab season, I’m gonna be so mad. I could see being a scab as a way to ruin any potential of ever playing in the league and yet, I know some folks won’t be thinking that far ahead (or they’ll be thinking they can’t afford to turn down scab money)

Linda Davis, a K-8 teacher in Savannah, Georgia, was killed in a car crash by a man fleeing ICE Local authorities said they were unaware of any ICE operations in the area. "We have a no chase policy," a county chairman said www.wtoc.com/2026/02/16/s...

Keep Hope Alive !!!! #blacksky

A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to restore the slavery exhibit that the National Park Service removed in Philadelphia www.inquirer.com/news/philade...

I’m so tired of the #WNBA treating the players like the federal government has treated minimum wage. The league is almost 30 years old. Please stop trying to pay them like it’s 1997 and they should be happy there’s even a league to play in

Yeahhh not letting this die. Especially talking about folks doing too much. That virus showed us we should mask forever anytime we’re in public spaces, especially if we’re sick or around someone who’s sick (and since we never know who’s sick…)

A judge ruled that groups representing residents of Louisiana’s Cancer Alley can proceed with their landmark lawsuit seeking a pause on toxic industrial plants in two majority‑Black districts

The fact that Elno is from Apartheid South Afrika and is actively doing his best to turn the US into is wild af

Pair this with Unrivaled overall treats the players better anyway, and no one should be surprised when that lock out happens

Just me, or this horse look like that dude?

I said it last year. Bc they don't have MAGAs to fight here they turned all that aggression on us and it never curls over to investigate that and acknowledge what it means that you decided in the absence of your actual enemy your instinct was to target a random group of people of the same race.

Me, every time Americans say, "This is not who we are."

Pay the players!!!

First of all, these are FDNY's preferred rain boot and also what Santa switches to once he crosses the George Washington Bridge.

Article from 2025 reminds us that more red states have fewer passport holders than blue states. The f*ascists haven't really thought this through all the way.
