Trump administration strips Nigerian Nobel winner Wole Soyinka of US visa The first African author to win the Nobel in literature, Soyinka has been an outspoken critic of governments worldwide.

Trump and his sniveling minions continue to fling their feces. They fear strong voices. Mediocrity at its most cliche. www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/10...

need4Ispeed To God be the GLORY! Our son, Ezra William Hamilton, made his debut October 1st a little earlier than planned, but perfectly on God's time. After an unexpected turn with preeclampsia and a few days in the hospital, we've been taking it slow... healing, resting, and soaking up all the love.

Lauren and Cameron had their son!!! ❤️ #LoveIsBlind

Kicking my feet

So I’m losing hope. I cannot donate blood. I’ve gone in every day this week and been told my pulse is too high. I can’t fix that. If I don’t have rent by the 3rd I’ll be evicted by the 10th. I’ve still not found a job. Rent is $1400. I don’t have it

People need reflection. I regret not having more time with you. Your undeniable beauty and talent were not of this world, and a presence not of this world needs protection in a world that covets light and the anointing of God. You sir, moved us, stirred us, inspired and even intimidated others to action with your genius. Thank you for being a beacon of light to a generation and beyond who had no remembrance of the legacy that preceded us. Thank you for charting the course and for making space during a time when no similar space really existed.

You imaged a unity of strength and sensitivity in Black manhood to a generation that only saw itself as having to be one or the other. It is my earnest prayer that you are in peace, far away from selfishness, fear and/or controlling interests. Far from possessiveness, far from greed, far from manipulation, far from exploitation, far from intentionally designed chaos and that you Brother are in peace, in bliss and in eternal light and fulfillment with our Father in heaven. I Love you and I miss you. May God grant peace and shelter to your family, true friends and genuine appreciators, Brother, King.

Lauryn Hill just shared a moving tribute to the late D’Angelo:

Hayley Williams performed True Believer positioned at the back of the stage with most of her black musicians at the front. I’ll post the lyrics below

Ok
I'll be seated, I guess

Greta Thunberg is being tortured in Israeli captivity, as revealed by fellow activists:

“They dragged little Greta by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others”

Suzanne Swierc Let me be clear: if you think Charlie Kirk was a wonderful person, we can't be friends. His death is a tragedy, and I can and do feel for his wife and children. I believe in the Resurrection, and while it's difficult, I can and do pray for his soul. Charlie Kirk's death is a reflection of the violence, fear, and hatred he sowed. It does not excuse his death, AND it's a sad truth. The shooting is a tragedy, and I can and do feel for a college campus experiencing an active shooter situation. The deaths of Melissa and Mark Hortman, the children shot and killed in Minneapolis last month, and the children shot in Colorado today are all tragedies that also deserve your attention. Charlie Kirk excused the deaths of children in the name of the second amendment.

Here’s what a Ball State University employee said that led to their termination:

WGA Statement on ABC’s Decision to Pull Jimmy Kimmel Live! The right to speak our minds and to disagree with each other – to disturb, even – is at the very heart of what it means to be a free people. It is not to be denied. Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice. As a Guild, we stand united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent. If free speech applied only to ideas we like, we needn't have bothered to write it into the Constitution. What we have signed on to – painful as it may be at times – is the freeing agreement to disagree. Shame on those in government who forget this founding truth. As for our employers, our words have made you rich. Silencing us impoverishes the whole world. The WGA stands with Jimmy Kimmel and his writers.

The WGA’s statement on ABC’s decision to pull “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”

If it wasn't already clear, these are the dark ages.

ch*rlie k*rk said that the civil rights act was a mistake, condemned DEI initiatives, said gun deaths were worth the cost to keep the 2nd amendement around, belittled the merits of black women, pushed the great replacement theory, etc

but noooo, jimmy kimmel is the problem

Oh... I forgot about this

vorgan edit that says: she was fearless and crazier than him, she was his queen and god help anyone who dared disrespect his queen
