Do not ever do this under any circumstances. You will be held to the actual contract, not the AI summary, and the AI summary has no way of knowing which terms you might personally care about or have questions about. Dooooo notttttt dooooo thissssss.

Freckles.

A little bit yes and no 🙃 my middle school superlative was least likely to get married.

My art teacher through high school. Some years she was my only Black teacher. We had Friday portfolio check-ins and I still revisit some of that advice 🫶🏾

Maybe a lawn care goat 🤔

Cartoon by @claybennett.bsky.social. Birthright Citizenship

LRS is interesting to me as someone that's been told I'm of a fraudulent lineage and unfit to have a say in what happens to trust lands.

That lady on TikTok said the Salem Witch Trials were a land grab to steal land from single women and I haven’t stopped thinking about it.

It’s not JUST that right-wing fascists SAY they want the whole internet to be child-appropriate — it’s ALSO that they think all us people of other sexualities, religions, and races are inappropriate by default and this saying is how they start to erase our rights.

A lot of the centre/ centre left/ and radicals are struggling because their too cowardly to say the key point out loud : They can’t fight racism against someone they like because they like what racism does to someone they don’t Or they think is beneath them

Last semester, I had the opportunity to take a class on costume design in fantasy, sci-fi, and supernatural film and television. And for my final project, I chose to analyze the costumes in Jem and The Holograms! ✨

Ugh I remember how circa 2020 on twitter people were using the concept of "social capitalism" to argue exactly this Bc supposedly the number of followers you have = the number of dollars in your bank account, apparently

Birthright citizenship has always been a Black issue. Immigrants & descendants of American slavery. We haven't had full citizenship long. Our citizenship never stopped being conditional & can be snatched. Our ancestors were not deceived they had protection as "real" Americans & we shouldn't be.

www.austinchronicle.com/daily/news/2... = Here’s an article explaining this situation in greater detail

Their whiteness.

Black americans, for the millionth time, THIS IS OUR BUSINESS. some of our family members don’t have complete birth certificates, if any. should someone seek your ancestry before 1900 as proof of citizenship, you very well may be fucked.

Movie you've watched more than six times using GIFS (hardmode: no Star Wars, Star Trek or LOTR)

I include women that withhold info about predators in this. Lying through omission to get more bodies between you and a harmful person is sick. Not every experience is let them learn on their own about so and so 😡

My first academic article is live!! Published with Fashion Studies, “What is a ‘Worth’ Worth? Developing a Methodology of Historical to Modern Day Price Conversions for Dress” asks how we can better explain clothing prices in the past to people in the present. The approach explored is wage data.

Gail Etienne, Leona Tate, and Tessie Prevost’s story was overshadowed for decades. Hurricane Katrina’s anniversary brings new urgency to their unfinished work.

I keep forgetting to pick up milk/creamer so I've started putting ice cream in my coffee ☕

Please contribute if you're able or share the original if you're not

UPDATE: Within an hour of a very unpleasant conversation about extricating myself from this situation as soon as possible, I got approval for new housing that poured honey into my wounds. So much so that I am truly stunned by the grace afforded to me. Getting closer to goal, every bit helps.

Oh yeah ive had an AARP membership for a few years now and im in my early thirties. Its not just for seniors! Please take advantage!!

Older infrastructure. The lack of central air means places have mold too. The condensation from the heat exposes the lead paint underneath. I've had to sign many waivers for this. One year my kid kept getting recurrent heat rashes that were so bad I had to get them checked for measles.

Outdoor Afro is offering scholarships to cover the costs of anyone, at any age, interested in learning how to swim: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Guaraní is more than a language—it’s resistance. It survived colonization, war, and dictatorship. And in Paraguay, it's still spoken by millions today. therealnews.com/how-one-sout...

They don't even have legs and they wash them. Incredible.

this veers into darvo

I wrote about this phenomenon in Millennials ….. a decade ago www.salon.com/2013/10/18/n...

Squid ink is melanin rich.

love this 🦬💖

Also another cool fact about elephants is they communicate with each other through their feet. They can hear each other’s vibrations from miles away.

hmmmmm.

Black folks, be very careful replying to strangers online. You know why. This is going to be stressful so don't let that stress get you out of character over a bot/psyop/pos racist. Block/detach quote/change your settings...whatever you need to do to protect your peace and your person. With love

I am begging people not to look to the NYT for coverage of what's happening. The BBC, Le Monde, Ajazeera and others will have more truthful coverage.

Harvard hired a researcher to uncover its ties to slavery. He says the results cost him his job: ‘We found too many slaves’
