This is my new response to all political questions. I will not be taking any follow-ups.

My cousin (sister) - 60 had a wonderful homegoing this morning with full military & police (retired this year) honors.

Loved that she razzed her pastor about her beloved Giants. You can imagine our house during football games with Commanders, Cowboys, Oilers/Titan fans, etc.

Until we meet again.πŸ™πŸΏπŸ«‚

UPS had seven months of warning about the de minimis change, but is still taking packages w/o getting required customs info & is making tariff charge errors.
Nice use of passive voice though!

i apologize using a passive voice. i was not born in london to a wealthy bank executive, sent to an exclusive private prep school in new hampshire, and then studied at harvard before larping as a champion of the people. you have to work with my low upbringing.

How to Fight Your Health Insurance Denial with an External Appeal When a health insurer refuses to pay for your treatment, you may have the right to have the denial reviewed β€” and potentially overturned β€” by an independent provider. Here are six steps experts sugges...

Few patients appeal a health insurance denial, but a little-known process that requires insurers and plans to seek an independent opinion can force insurers to pay for what can be lifesaving treatment.

Here’s what experts say you need to know.

Oh & she’s Indian too so that ticks off their xenophobia hence the comments of WH smelling like curry if she wins
But in order of importance it is the order you listed then her Indian part
They hate her bc her multiple identities & having power makes their white mediocre asses feel insignificant

I mean seriously! After Reconstruction, Black Americans were told "You can't sit with us, go stay over there!"

Black Americans said "Ok" and formed their societies with businesses, schools etc.

White Americans did not like that and burned their towns/sides of town down. Make that make sense.

12.10.2025 16:19 β€” πŸ‘ 46    πŸ” 14    πŸ’¬ 4    πŸ“Œ 1

And white people whining about Black people saying we are not about to be out in these streets are doing so because they know we'll be the lightning rods to attract the violence.

It may not be YOUR intent (there are some). It will however be the IMPACT. Understand the difference.

Black Unemployment Is Surging Again. This Time Is Different.

β€œThe African American unemployment rate has surged over the past four months, from 6 to 7.5 percent, while the rate for white people ticked down slightly to 3.7 percent. On top of a slowing economy, the White House’s actions have disproportionately harmed Black workers, economists said.”

They hate her because she’s Black.
They hate her because she’s a woman.
They hate her because her husband is Jewish.
And they hate her because deep down, they know she’s right.

I did not know this.
And it doesn’t hurt my feelings.
It infuriates me, as it should all of us.
We can’t change behavior and resist actions we don’t know about (which is precisely why we didn’t learn about it).
Teach this stuff in schools!

Forget rigid controlβ€”behavior-based robots move with the flow! Each small behavior (avoid obstacles, follow light, chase goals) adds up to big intelligence. That’s how we change the face of STEM, one line of code at a time. #NoireSTEMinist #BlackWomenSTEM #MySTEMIsForTheStreetsπŸ’‘ πŸ€–

Off topic a bit, but have you read NK Jemisin and/or Rebecca Roanhorse? Both are just amazing. Jemisin reminds me strongly of both LeGuin and Butler.

Fox News is eating this up.

Have you ever seen anyone torch their own governor chances as fast as Katie Porter did last week?

Google searches for β€œKatie Porter interview” are up 10,000% and her odds of becoming the next California governor just cratered from 40% to under 16%.

Who has the pool for when he declares he's not a Democrat anymore?

He *has* to know he's not getting reelected by now, right?

I mean, he’s right - a lot of very good people are owed big apologies, just not the people he’s thinking of.

The "I don't want my tax money murdering children and families in Palestine" folks.

Well, your tax money is being used to bomb fishing vessels under the false narrative of them being drug traffickers.

Those are fathers, brothers, sons, and uncles.

You mad about that too? Or nah?

So again, that’s the difference here. Black people don’t have to guess about Rep. Bennie Thompson’s thoughts on these I.C.E. abuses, for example, because he’s made his thoughts clear to the Black community and to me personally.

Again, Black people are simply not lending Our voices to white people.

Son you have literally aligned yourself with a group of people that spat in the faces of black women, the smartest most well informed voting bloc in the country. Have a seat & shut the hell up. Your white buddies were too busy knee capping Kamala Harris to care about your stupid ass.
