WASHINGTON (AP) — Claudette Colvin, whose refusal to move seats on a segregated bus helped spark the civil rights movement, dies at 86.

....Good-guy Hochul was not on my bingo card.

I heard people start cheering randomly and had to check my news feed.... Still a normal day.

Make it viral.

See, the US government doesn't care about you until they notice you have oil. Iraq, Libya, Venezuela, Diddy.

Only game I've ever backed on Patreon (way back in 2020). It's a top 10 strategy game for me.

A big theme in Wretched of the Earth was that Latin America had long ago gained independence but was still under colonialism. Feels topical.

Cool to already know what's on my April reading list

Felt like the world was falling apart in late 2024 so my New Years Resolution was to read at least 3 books a month in 2025. Just finished "Wretched of the Earth,"my last book for December. #Booksky Favorite books: Black Rice by Judith Ann Carney Parable of the Sower by Octavia Butler

This was my biggest tweet over in the bad place. It will live here now. 🧙‍♀️🎄

Much-needed timeline cleanse.

Lol, he tricked the whole world into watching his rambling speech

Every state in the United States has a disgusting soda that only they know about and that’s kind of beautiful

It's ironic that a History or English degree still makes you very well equipped to work in an office but learning to code was largely a fad

I'm increasingly convinced that a number of Republicans in government know the actual state of Trump's health and they are starting to infight over who controls the movement once Trump is unable to. It explains so much of the weird behavior from the regime.

I love the ocean, like on a spiritual level, but being stuck in the open ocean for 40 minutes while I just witnessed some of my friends get incinerated seems pretty bad?

Unintentionally became a performative male stereotype this weekend as I sat on the A train to Harlem reading Toni Morrison.

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

It’s true that everyone here is 38 but it’s the sprinkling of 22 and 65 year old posters but absolutely zero other ages that round out the app

I have never felt more patriotic

It's hard to comprehend how long-term fucked our economic growth is by lack of electricity generation but this chart really speaks to it.

It was an entirely honorable, rationale and respectable choice for a top law student from a top law school to do several years of service at the DoJ in lieu of taking a $250k a year starting salary at a big law firm. The best lawyers worked for the DOJ! The regime torched that idea in 9 months.

Despite this being naive, Raskin was saying the same thing about Mamdani last week so I won't say he's not consistent.

Wild how they still sell this brand with a clearly racist label but it is quality cornmeal for this okra I'm about to fry.

This is why you gotta follow non-American news sources

Elite impunity, anti monopoly, anti-corruption, affordability.... pretty clear path forward for whoever is able to stop fearing the donors.

This is one of the first games I really played on my own. I didn't have a console so I only knew obscure PC platformers

Wild that a person almost 90 tweeted out a read this incisive

I love that Mamdani is what the right claimed Obama was: A Muslim socialist born in Africa. The right practically manifested Mamdani into existence.

Wild to think I'm going to be upset if Zohran doesn't crack 50%, not the worst thing to be potentially upset about.

When I started reading from my parents bookshelf in high school, this was probably the book that stuck with me the most.

lol at this mailer, at least they knew me and my wife are Black. And yes, this group is connected to AIPAC.

Omg 😭

I'd just wait awhile and see what happens.

Fascinating to also see the bland centrist running for Gov in NJ is looking likely to lose, very important lesson to national Democrats but they'll probably read it is "running women is too woke."

If you're in NYC and don't follow Jacob you're missing so much of what happens in "real" NYC.

I remember in college when Obama addressed the Reverend Wright moment and turned a controversy into a strength.... I had a similar emotional reaction here
