Everyone seems to be waiting on saviors, messiahs.

This is not a strategy.

I cannot stress how an overwhelming number of Americans would be outraged by this if they knew it was happening. So tell them. You low information voter friends. Your Trump-ish relatives. Tell them. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/17/b...

Totally shocked that the man who incited an insurrection to avoid leaving office would say this once he got back in office.

SHOCKED.

Never could have guessed.

It’s gonna take a long time to get over the anti-intellectual movement. Even when we do, the harm has been done. Folks don’t believe science and experts and that man has cut 1,300 jobs from the CDC. Buckle up. πŸ€¦πŸΎβ€β™€οΈ

Got my first "Violating an Executive Order" and "I'll make sure you lose federal funding" parent threat today for teaching "DEI" books in our upcoming "Liberty and Justice" themed unit. Even in "Blue" Massachusetts we're dealing with this.

Anyway, don't obey in advance, and don't obey later.

No. People are always looking for Black women to clean up the messβ€”act as their mule. And then throw her away after she’s exhausted from the labor and lack of support. And I hate that phrase.

People already eat vegetables and legumes. Make it the centerpiece of a plate. Easy. #plantbased #veganfood

Vegan food isn’t rabbit food. It’s just foodβ€”without the animal. I always eat well and I don’t eat a lot of processed products. You just have to know how to cook and plan.

Is this Michelle’s childhood home?The way she talked you’d think she grew up poor. LOL at her friend calling her boring. And to be talking abt David’s clothes, she needs to practice what she preaches because I haven’t seen one cute outfit. She’s in basic casual wear. #mafs #marriedatfirstsight

Ikechi needs to go on somewhere always talking about his β€œpeace” as if he didn’t sign up to be MARRIED AT FIRST SIGHT. πŸ™„
Now David, imma need you to come up with a better lie.🀣 But I ain’t mad at him bc Michele has been so rude and insulting. Don’t be mad now, girl. #mafs #marriedatfirstsight

Random thought: R&B is short for Rhythm and Blues. Today we get a whole lot of rhythm but very littleβ€”if anyβ€”blues (and soul).

Maybe I need to go back and rewatch old episodes because I’m lost on why Tyron Biggums is mad at Emem. What did she do to make him so cold? I mean, I know he’s intimidated by her, but damn. #MAFS

Martell does have issues…but am I the only one who believes what he’s saying about Marsau’s dirt? He really doesn’t protect or stand up for Tisha. And like Martell said, I don’t think he wants to be married. #lamh

Does Michelle not realize saying that she’d be a failure if she lost what she has now and go back to being working class is insulting to the family and friends she had back home? πŸ™„ #mafs

I’m so sicka Michelle always talking about β€œlifestyle.” Meanwhile, she is wearing a Walmart T-shirt and wrinkled cargo pants. It ain’t matching up with the lifestyle she’s claiming. #mafs

Why in the world did Ikechi come on this show? This is the biggest risk you can take to find love/married. And now he’s shocked that he’s uncomfortable. Something ain’t adding up. #mafs

Don’t know what to say about Karla and Juan. They’re just not a good match.

I need Camille to work out her race and identity issues with a therapist. Her being worried about Thomas not being hood enough is more about her overcompensating than him not having β€œswag.” #MAFS

I had high hopes for Emem and Ikechi. They started out ok, but what is wrong with him? Does he not have a Black sister, cousin momma or friend in his life? Certainly he didn’t think calling his Black wife β€œaggressive” would be a good thing. πŸ˜’

I feel bad for Allen, too. He’s a nice guy. Madison is living her best life WITHOUT him.
