I've said this before, but I really want (white) folks to examine why this is always a conversation about swapping out their fave Blacks & POC when there are sooooooo many other members of congress.

I just read a thread of non-Black DSA's speculating about how to convince Chi Ossè to go up against Jeffries including how him being of Haitian descent could activate communities and talking BedStuy demos and while I know this is how political convos work, it was so gross to see out in the open.

I can't stress enough the importance of local/state elections that can impact you instantly.. ballot initiatives, Senate/House Reps, judges, MAYORS, sheriffs, schoolboards, county executives/councils, etc. Do your research, know who/what you're voting for.

47 is an even bigger fan boy of Kim Jong Un than Putin, so that should tell you exactly what kind of leader he aspires to be.

everytime there's some absolutely foolish conversation happening in the Ni**asphere, about somebody none of us should even care about, it started with the Breakfast Club. Like why does anybody care about Dame Dash in the year of our lord 2025?

I've noticed something over the years and wonder if it's universal - if I've had a couple of days in a row with minimal sleep (and the sleep issue is another thing that's not the point right now), the day *after* I get a decent night of sleep is when I look like hell.

people pretend that debate signals and defends a commitment to high minded politics. what it elevates instead is performative dishonesty as a basic mode of politics

Kirk would have turned 35 a month before the 28 election. I'm more and more on board with the idea that this was an opp. Move him off the board, radicalize some folks, incite some chaos, and use him as symbolic cover for all manner of foolishness at the same time.

People too often conflate consuming media with becoming educated on a subject. People will watch a whole ass video by some rando, and walk away from it without cross referencing any sources or even checking the validity of said sources. We really are just a nation of suckers at this point.

This makes it even worse, for me, bc it means 47 is happy to overshadow the significance of the day of remembrance and make it about ol' boy.

Sigh... 47 is going to Yankee stadium tonight, on 9/11, one day after one of the most prominent right wing voices in the country is shot and killed. That's about to cost us (NY'ers) a gajillion dollars in security. Thoughts and prayers to everybody in the Bronx whose whole day will be a wash.

Once again I'm shocked that the VMAs are happening. And to understand that shock (and confusion) you'd need to remember the VMAs of the mid-late 90s through mid-00s.

Cost of Trump's D.C. Occupation: $1.1M per day. Cost to operate public housing for D.C.'s entire homeless population: $169,226 per day. It's not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

Somebody said Cracker Barrel going back to their old logo was capitulating to 47 and compared them to Target and... no. That new logo was trash and a terrible brand decision and had NOTHING TO DO WITH DIVERSITY OR TOLERANCE. Nothing. Please don't make it a thing aside from a brand thing.

the story I heard is that they're getting their ass kicked by Tupelo Honey, which is far more HGTV-shiplap-looking and thus gives the contemporary frisson of "well-to-do economic anxiety" that has made Nashville into both Baptist Vegas and white girl Instagram valhalla

Our brains def work differently, even if not fully ND. I remember looking around a big ass conference room during a label meeting once and noticing that every person in the marketing department except like 1 was left handed. I had never noticed that many lefties in one group.

Ok, so I went to see Spike & Denzel's High 2 Low and I have a lot of thoughts, but the strongest ones are about Spike doing a perhaps unnecessary amount of Spike shit, and whether or not this film should have been set in the 2010's
