At least the lower half of New England get it.

Demagogic president seizes money to pay standing army, arrogating to himself legislative power, while his cronies keep Congress out of session is honestly more or less exactly how the Founders thought this would end

"Reveals"? This is exactly what a whole lot of Black people have been saying for a decade. But we get shouted down and accused of "making everything about race."

Q: β€œMost hospitals + people who will lose insurance are in rural areas. If Trump & Republicans are so intent on sticking it to their own voters, why not let them?”

@aoc.bsky.social : β€œThat’s the difference between us & Trump. I don’t care if you voted for me, I want you to have health care.”

Once American democracy made it possible for a Black man to be elected president, American conservatives decided that it had to be destroyed

ICE took a 13-year-old they said had a gun. Local cops say he didn’t. Now he's detained 500 miles away from his Massachusetts home.

NEW β€” I dug into the story of ICE abducting a 13-year-old boy in Massachusetts and moving him 500 miles across state lines without notifying his mother, local cop's complicity, and how the federal government's justification for such cruelty is already falling apart:

The subtext of this comment is that the Mayor of Boston is Asian-American, whereas the Mayor of Chicago (like almost everyone else that Trump refers to as β€œa low IQ person”) is Black.

A great way to articulate how rich Bezos is is look how much money his ex-wife has just to give away; and she’s giving away mammoth amounts of money on the regular

I have some bad news about violence against women in conservative circles. Utah is so proud of their low numbers and your numbers would be low too if you ignored reports

Relationships are a group project. Why wouldn’t I want my partner to ball out in her career? When one us levels up, we both level up. When one of us takes a hit, we both take a hit. We share in everything. One unit. One band, one sound.

Free Press Reporter Discovers That Being An Amoral Dickhead Can Cost You Friends | Defector It can be hard to maintain friendships as an adult. People move to new cities, start families, and experience all sorts of other life events that make it difficult to keep in touch. Sometimes, you end...

I need more shitty people to lose friends.

Pananormal or slasher horror bores me to tears…

Sci Fi horror rarely reads as horror to me. I love films like β€œEvent Horizon”, β€œSunshine”, β€œPandorum” & β€œAlien: Romulus” which are just Sci Fi films to me. β€œBlack Mirror” esque stuff is more my preference. Torture porn like β€œSaw” or gorefests? Miss me

β€œ28 Days Later” (2002)
β€œChildren Of Men” (2006)

BONUS: β€œCarrie” (1976)*
β€œAlien” (1979)
β€œThe Shining” (1980)
β€œThe Exorcist” (1973)

Adult me vs. child/young me* have very different β€œhorror” sensibilities

That’s $5 billion more than the entire annual USAID budget. All to one country. To rescue one friend of the president’s.

No one in the GOP Hitler chat was a "kid" We checked. Sorry, JD Vance.

Black and brown boys are routinely seen and treated like adults and Black girls are sexualized as promiscuous. Meanwhile, grown-ass white men are forever infantilized.

One thing I wanna say is that much of what made D'Angelo so great is that he understood he was part of a continuum, a legacy, a lineage of great Black music across the generations. He named, revered, studied the greats who preceded him, then figured out how to take their work several steps further.

Ananda Lewis interviews D'Angelo on MTV Live circa 1997 in promotion of the Scream 2 soundtrack. Cancer claimed both of them this year. Grateful that something like this even exists online so we have evidence of our culture's influence. Shouts to all the guerrilla archivists.

"I think the Democratic base feels like there is a disconnect. We hear you, when you did your 25-hour speech, I was like go Cory, I love this, that is amazing.

And then there's a photo shoot with you with Benjamin Netanyahu, and I was just like, what in the actual fuck? It was heartbreaking."

I have a lot of respect for Zolan Kanno-Youngs and @haleaziz.bsky.social and have talked to both many times in the past. That the Times lets them be so blunt about what is happening with the U.S. refugee admissions program is a good sign of how much the Trump admin is not even trying to deny it.
