This is a joke. Their social media is full of silly stuff.

Oh hey don’t forget to make plans to hex Trump during the Spring Equinox, on March 20, 2026. Preparations have begun. I’ve been told.

It was an article about agricultural labor exploitation. I listened to it hypnotically for longer than I can even say. I feel bad I then thought it hilarious, bc accessibility software should be more robust & also because Serious Subject. But it was also….kinda groovy.

Whew! I was too busy asking ChatGPT if god wants me to have street parking to read anything carefully. Also, thank you for the alt-text.

Thanks, def on the mend after a long few days of impaired vision. Bet I’d feel better if I stopped popping in here. It’s been educational to be reminded who’s not using alt-text. Plus, my screen reader had a nervous breakdown & yelled the word banana at me on a loop, which was oddly relaxing.

I have a brutal migraine hangover so I'm glad you said this because I was staring at the weird colors of that preview image and wondering if I'd taken this new medicine wrong somehow or if something else was going horribly wrong.

women politicians or other types of leaders specifically, I should have said.

But regardless, critiquing men's fashion doesn't carry the baggage of focusing on women's bodies, hair, & economic decisions. I brought up Justin because it's been my long experience with these people that his appearance had no bearing on his value as a person or his ability to do his job but now...

This is so great. I fought so hard to bring artomatic there a million years ago but most of the rest of the Board just couldn't see the potential in the area even though I had strong city support. OK it was only 16 years ago but it felt like a million. ANYway, hooray for more housing!

As long as no one's calling you the Jaws Mayor you're doing ok. Which was not the point you were making but I have a vicious migraine hangover so I found it hilarious. Which is also a sign I probably shouldn't have checked back in here at all.

Rather, both directly to them and then later also passive-aggressively, because I’m very very tired.

Student-run bookstore adds new chapter to the Corner Nonprofit Ginkgo Bookshop on Elliewood Avenue gives new life to a decades-old business, Heartwood Books, that had planned to close.

What can you do with an English major? How about taking ownership of a beloved independent bookstore and ensuring it continues serving the community. Power to these UVA students! news.virginia.edu/content/stud...

Omg I love this. That’s such a great spot, I hope they thrive!

Betty edited 3 volumes of letters. Just to be accurate 🀣

I still have one giant TL of chaos on my phone using the app - can only see feeds when I’m using a browser which has been rare this week for Reasons so I’m on a long delay for local stuff unless it posts while I’ve got phone in hand. Very annoying. Gotta find a solution soon.

We’re judging your fashion sense Mayor Mike! No, but seriously, I spend too much time near a cabal of White women who’re clearly threatened by our smart, capable, accomplished, & very stylish mayor & I put my foot down to them directly, but also admittedly passive-aggressively, that enough’s enough.

I feel like using paper dolls of the two of them with detachable flip charts & laptops to make our points would be a start. Haha. But let’s let Justin’s dignity die a quiet death alone & focus on the positive of how smart AND cool she is. Also I want that green jacket.

Oh holy cats no! I’d reply to you directly! But what has me soul-searching is how on the surface that conversation might look like what I’m perpetually disgusted about. We’d know it’s different because intent & context, but are we still part of the problem? Idk. Certainly minus the anti-blackness

This probably sounds like I’m being disrespectful w first names only but I wanted to decrease search results & hopefully deter snitch tags because no one who’s targeted needs to be reminded people behave this way.

And it’s a great wardrobe! I adore her style! I’m afraid to ask where this post is 🀣🀣🀣

I don’t like to give this shit oxygen but I think it bears pointing out that it’s not harmless & we have to push back when people in our community say things like this.

Mostly in person but apparently also in a private fb group which I can’t verify bc I only have screenshots

I can’t stop laughing tho thinking about how annoyed Judy got w me when she was first goading Justin to run for office & she told me to come up with some slogans & the 1st thing out of my mouth was β€œAll substance, no style.” For some reason β€œJustin: he never killed a hobo” didn’t make the cut either

Internalized misogyny + racism!

But you are correct about Justin’s, um, style 🀣

There’s no fair here IMO. These women know every policy decision & vote Justin ever made but what they want to know about Alyia is how much time she spends shopping & relaxing her hair instead of governing. & it gets much worse from there.
