It is past time to get serious.
Using our phones to record evil does not work. They do not care.
Learn from the past. Do not wait to to be butchered like pigs. Protect our children, sisters, mothers & brothers.

Dear Black Community,
Please start setting up community meetings to discuss protection patrols.
We need funds for shotguns, ammo & training.
We also need volunteers for community patrols.

I don't know. If I had children... and someone pulled them out of bed in the middle of the night for some racist humiliation ritual...
I'm just saying... it would not take much.

This is fake. I am sure it is possible, but it is not that easy to forge papers anymore. They aren't checking a signature. We have databases of biometric information.

Why is this toxic masculinity and not sociopathic behavior induced by a culture of capitalist exploitation?
Masculinity is not toxic. Masculinity protects, teaches, supports, builds, & encourages.

Since a Minneapolis police officer murdered George Floyd in 2020, the number of people killed by the police each year has continued to rise β€” and Black Americans are still killed in disproportionate numbers. Our data reporter explains his findings. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/24/u...

Why I’m Resigning from the NSF and Library of Congress I cannot participate in systems that require dishonesty as the price of belonging.

"For me, the answer now lies in refusal, the withdrawal of participation from systems that require dishonesty as the price of belonging."

Today I am resigning from the National Science Board and the Library of Congress Scholars Council.

I wrote about my decision in TIME.

You sound like a terrible person.
This is exactly what a terrible person would type.
No nuance, no consideration. Let's just lynch 'em and let God sort it out.

This is my new favorite image because it perfectly encapsulates the concern trolling and crybullying from the right when you give them even a fraction of what they spew out on a consistent basis.

I work in process improvement. It is my job to simplify complex processes and concepts to make communication and implementation easier. A core tenant is to always consider the human beings that engage with the process.
My profession shapes my perspective.

Hey guys, let's cut the guy some grace. He didn't promote it. Just got paid to ask some benign questions. He did not seem thrilled.
We don't know what he is going through where he felt pushed to accept the job.
