Unhinged.

Hurricane Melissa has touched Jamaica, Haiti, Dominican Republic, and is now headed to Cuba, Bahamas, and Turks and Caicos.

The Caribbean will need help, but the Caribbean remains strong.

This is a sitting president endorsing the assassination of a former president. Sending a signal that he will protect violence and criminality against all his perceived enemies.

This is horrifying.

This is crazy.

Loc'd and Loaded A Tangled Tresses anthology about a magical black hair salon

I started a Kickstarter to help support an anthology about a magical black hair salon that I'm working on putting together with a bunch of other black authors. Feel free to support or share :) #Blackbooksky #blackindie #bookrecs #booksky www.kickstarter.com/projects/rid...

“Fastest accumulation of $1 Trillion in debt outside of the pandemic…”

But at least the rich got their tax cuts, right @MarshaBlackburn? With Inequality at gilded age levels.

PSA: They don’t care about the debt and never did.

I don’t even qualify for food assistance but watching people argue about people starving is NASTY WORK…food and housing should be a human right…especially being the wealthiest country in the world..

Be soft with her, you ain’t even that tough, nigga

(consistently)

Thank you, Mayor Brandon.

🗣️WORDS MEAN THINGS! Honor people’s humanity!

Almost every major news story this week is about how the entire economy is now gambling, scams, bribes and theft.

Will someone please add this to the list?

Over the past 2 days, I have been touched by w/ your dedicated support & care.

We are $5054.00 away from covering the judgment.

Today's ask: Can you share this w/ your mutual aid networks, friends, family members, or other trusted individuals who might be able to help?

It would be terrible if folks called Mike Johnson's offices daily demanding that Grijalva be sworn in during the pro forma session.

Free Congo too man.. there has to be a humane/ sustainable way to source materials for our tech smh

Saying this just for clarification of the headline and not in any way as a defense of Newsom (who should have signed these bill): the ones he declined to sign or veto still become law because that's how it works in California

hi, cis folks in california!

this headline leaves out that newsom has another 5 days to sign these bills into law. if you’d like to tell him he should do that to protect trans californians, you should to reach out.

he also has a phone: (916) 445-2841

want to know what to say? next post! 🧵

Why Are Plans for This Alabama Data Center So Hush-Hush? Officials in Bessemer, Alabama, are mum on Project Marvel, a proposed data center the size of 18 Walmart Supercenters.

I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that all these data centers are going into communities that have been historically targeted for exploitation and have the least amount of civic power wielded by the people living there.

Let me be clear: It’s ILLEGAL to deny federal workers back pay after a shutdown.

There’s a 2019 law that guarantees it, but Trump is once again trying to break the law.

You don’t get to punish people for doing their jobs just because you’re failing at yours.

I’m really curious how much more people need to hear before they get angry “enough”. Every clip, sound bite, memo, “executive order”, enrages me so badly I feel like my brain is short circuiting. 🫨🥴

Your Prime Day reminder that Amazon...

-Provides cloud services that help fuel ICE's deportation machine
-Donated $1 million to Trump's inauguration fund
-Scrapped plans to display tariff costs after pressure from Trump
-Shelled out $40M for a documentary about Melania Trump

🤣🤣🤣…y’all can’t even be urban no more

This nigga different……..

“Choosing Your Witness”

Reminder that we still don’t know what happened to the 1,000 immigrants who went missing from Alligator Alcatraz.

Their families and attorneys can’t locate them.

They’ve been disappeared.

People are still being sent to that horrible place without any due process.

The government is officially shut down. Make no mistake: Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. This is THEIR shutdown. They had every tool to govern and chose chaos instead. The American people are the ones paying the price.

Wall Street Journal headline: "Meet the people who eat 100 year-old military rations." With a picture of what looks like a militia fantasist holding up old mac and cheese to the camera.

White people be SO BORED

Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.

This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

Remember this before you order your next pumpkin spice latte.
