Thatโ€™s not just me, thatโ€™s also the sound of Mikeโ€™s head slipping gears.

Been a couple years now, but I used to make a vegetable soup with winter veggies: spinach, cauliflower, beans, squash, and tomato, plus I pre-cook barley separately & add it. YUM.

Broadly my point is โ€œeveryoneโ€ demands Black people support โ€œeveryโ€ issue thatโ€™s important to someone..

But that same energy is rarely returned organically. We have to beg.

Just left an I.C.E. kidnap family I was able to help reunite.

This is the 5th such family out of the 38 I took on.

Reuniting each has required finagling and low key trickery on my partโ€”because the Rule of Law is dead.

Every little bit helps:

Ellison's CBS brought on the two editors that got NYT to publish Tom Cotton's 2020 op-ed calling for soldiers to shoot protesters in the streets. Hard to find a clearer editorial throughline than "anyone protesting murder by the state should be killed for it."

Every government shutdown in the past 30 years started with a GOP-controlled House.

Republicans cannot be trusted to keep our country running.

Or, to put it another way, as long as white Americans take refuge in their whitenessโ€” for so long as they are unable to walk out of this most monstrous of traps-they will allow millions of people to be slaughtered in their name, and will be manipulated into and surrender themselves to what they will think of-and justifyโ€”as a racial war. They will never, so long as their whiteness puts so sinister a distance between themselves and their own experience and the experience of others, feel themselves sufficiently human, sufficiently worthwhile, to become responsible for themselves, their leaders, their country, their children, or their fate. They will perish (as we once put it in our black church) in their sinsโ€”that is, in their delusions. And this is happening, needless to say, already, all around us.

We lost a cat & 4, almost 5, kittens to the panleukopenia outbreak this month. I posted about the importance of vaccinating your cat to protect the tiny ones.

I now have an inbox full of cat anti vaxxers. I am so over humans

Taps mic: You all coming at the 92% and the 81% are intentionally being obtuse. When we Black Americans said to stay home, we didnโ€™t mean do nothing. Donโ€™t conflate the two. People are contributing in their own ways. We are just not putting ourselves on the front lines as sacrificial lambs.

Unfortunately these self-proclaimed activist accounts take any talking points the GOP offers. Fucking tools.

Why do people pretend not to understand when their comments depress voter turnout? I think they value clout more than they value other people.

Posted on Reddit by /u/krypton86 Iโ€™m 2017:

I'm curious how many people are aware that this joke wasn't written for The Office. It's an old joke about the owner of the Brooklyn Dodgers Walter O'Malley. 

After he moved the Dodgers to L.A. in 1958, people (Brooklynites mostly) were furious and started circulating the joke:

Q: If you were in a room with Hitler, Stalin and O'Malley and you had a gun with only two bullets, who would you shoot?

A: O'Malley, twice!
