Anyway, I find that right now Black people on TikTok are strategizing mutual aid, Black civil rights leaders are encouraging a buy-in at Costcos nationwide, and white progressives are…still re-litigating the 2024 election. I know who I’m following. 🤷🏾‍♀️

A gentle reminder that new year resolutions don’t have to be about positive changes. You can commit to be more petty, seek revenge, and disrespect your enemies.

I hope this year you hold space for friends who grew up with you AND the friends who grew with you

It’s interesting, actually. Since the republican party got maga-fied their tent has actually grown. Not as big as the dems, but there’s way more infighting than I’ve previously seen in what was once a single-message, unified front.

I think the primary thing I found myself really moved by while in south korea was how the opposition party actually wanted to win at stuff

US inaugurations are a swearing in of a government official bound to the will of the people. Foreign heads of state aren’t invited to orientation days. They are invited to coronations, though.

A damning rebuttal to the concern trolling about how bike infrastructure will delay emergency vehicles. It's not the bike lanes that will delay them; it's the cars stuck in gridlock. In this case, the bike lane helped!

I’m on blacksky like an investigative journalist tryna get to the bottom of this. I swear I was gone for half a day!!

I’ve mentioned this before, but if you’re short on cash but have an urge to shop, go to your library digital apps and browse the books, audiobooks, movies, shoes, magazines. It works really well to give you the same feeling without spending the cash. (Plus you’re supporting public libraries.) 💙📚

As a torontonian can i just say rq Ford you raggedy tragedy I can’t *wait* to vote against you again. www.thestar.com/opinion/lett...

you ever wake up like “hmm. There’s a non-zero chance that I will cry in public today”

Please don't call what RFK Jr. and Jay Bhattacharya are going to do medieval. It's not medieval. It's nothing like the Middle Ages. People in the Middle Ages were happy to try all kinds of things to not die of the plague and if you'd given them antibiotics and vaccines they would have loved it.

"does bluesky have drafts" no but we have kindness. we have friendship. we know love. we know how to see the world in a grain of sand, and heaven in a wildflower. we know how to hold infinity in the palm of my hand, and eternity in an hour.
