I think whatโ€™s most frustrating right now for Black and Indigneous people is waiting for the bulk of white folks to catch up.

At some point the โ€œthis isnโ€™t who we areโ€ and โ€œI didnโ€™t have this on my bingo cardโ€ has to end and yโ€™all will catch up, right? RIGHT?

WE NEED YOU TO CATCH UP.

Social media has always been toxic, is increasingly moreso, and it's becoming a good, sensible mental and emotional health decision to disengage. Publishers need to address what happens when a large chunk of their current audience goes offline.

A post in the Facebook group โ€œdog spotting societyโ€ that shows a woman with her dog asking if she can get a boop for his snoot, and then highlighted is the message for me that โ€œyouโ€™re at the limit for pending content in this group.โ€ Meaning that I canโ€™t boop the snoot.
I am very upset about this . The snoot needs booping!

Look if thereโ€™s any limitations that SHOULDNโ€™T exist, limitations on me saying that I want to boop the snoot is on up there. Like wtf, dude. I can buy an assault rifle but I canโ€™t boop the snoot?!

Priorities, people!

Every single time Doug Tribou says, "This is...Michigan Public", I start singing, "...the story of a girl...who cried a river and drowned the whole world". His rhythm is perfect for it and it's a morning smile each day

Deeply disappointed to hear that the Israeli Navy illegally stopped the Global Sumud Flotilla 75 miles off the coast of Gaza. This was a non-violent mission to break the IDFโ€™s horrifying siege and deliver food and medicine to those who need it most.

Then why are you providing a $20 billion bailout to Argentina and helping them cut deals with China that crush American soybean farmers?

I occasionally wonder how many people that scream at Bluesky ever go back and apologize once they learn that the site is complying with state-mandated laws and it was not at all Blueskyโ€™s idea.

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesnโ€™t bend on its ownโ€”it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.

Mr Rogers was a republican.
He was a white christian cis het man.
He prayed and read the Bible every day.

He created a children's TV show with taxpayer money in which he promoted his "christian views" to a secular audience through secular media.
He studied other religions and other cultures to improve on his reach and connection. He never preached or quoted scripture--yet, we all got the message he intended for us.
He appealed to President Nixon and Congress to continue to fund the creation of PBS with a persuasive speech that is one of the most studied for public speaking and PR. A gentle but powerful speaker.
While white people were pouring concrete into public pools rather than share with black neighrbors, Fred Rogers broadcast himself sharing a quiet conversation in a pool with African-American music and co-worker, Francios Clemmons. The softest act of defiance against White Supremacy.
He was the most demanded speaker on college campuses--he did not have to con his way onto campus to speak and nazis and counter-protesters did not follow his appearances---You know, despite the fact that he was a white christian man promoting christian values to the general public.

Every generation since the 1968 has been positively impacted by Mr Rogers.
Even children in the past 20 years are benefiting from his legacy at PBS --his methods and messages are STILL used in children's programming around the world.

No one had to mandate mourning his death because we all actually felt a genuine loss when he passed away. Even grown adults, who had not watched his show for 10 years by the time he passed, felt a piece of genuine goodness leave the planet.

We did not have to be Christian with Mr Rogers for him to do so much for us. 
He never asked us to be Christian with him.
He only asked us to be his neighbor.

So...
If you find that the general public is rejecting your brand of Christianity, it might because you are a horrible fucking person with a 2000 yr old book of shitty excusesโ€ฆ

A fluffy brown and white Pomeranian stands on a dark mat in a bathroom, near a glass shower door. The dog has a thick, full coat with its fur puffed out, and it tilts its head slightly with wide, curious eyes, giving an expressive and playful look.

We have a stone mat in the bathroom that CJ loves to sploot on. His mom captured this great picture of him diving down to do his classic "lazy play" move on his mat since he was so excited when she came home from work ๐Ÿ˜†
