Our Secretary of Defense almost certainly has more threatening/extremist tattoos and has more credibly been accused of sexual assault than almost all of the people being sent to El Salvador. No exaggeration.

Hi. So instead of boycotting ONE day, cancel your Amazon prime and quit buying on Amazon.

Older Black man to me in the kitchen at work: “Lemme tell ya somethin. Coming into the office is overrated.” You are so right, Unc.

Have you canceled Amazon Prime yet?

This is what a deal with the devil looks like👇 @housegop.bsky.social JUST VOTED TO CUT Medicaid, SNAP benefits, school meals, & housing assistance all in exchange for giving corporations & billionaires a tax cut all at the  expense of the middle class.

Repeating something many Black journos have said already, but never underestimate how much white journos+editors willingness to play nice w/ varied iterations of “anti-wokeism” was b/c they got really uncomfortable from 2012 to 2020 when called to account for racism w/in their outlets/profession.

You don’t have to watch MSNBC. They are systematically firing their non-white hosts and you have every reason to turn the TV off. I will not support bootlickers. I will not support those who kiss the ring. I will not support those who bend the knee. Ever.

"DEI" is the Swiss Army knife of -ism slurs.

MSNBC worries about the perception that they’re not fair to R’s while Fox eats an $800m libel settlement to preserve its ability to lie about Ds. That’s the asymmetry that gives illiberalism a structural advantage. open.substack.com/pub/readtpa/...

Today, on the birthday of W.E.B. Du Bois,I consider the racism he endured as a grad student at Harvard.When he graduated in 1895 (the 1st Black person to earn a PhD from Harvard) he was asked about this achievement.He responded, "The honor, I assure you, was Harvard's" Remember:YOU are the prize!

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

Our military has to get vaccinated before they go ANYWHERE. Smallpox, tuberculosis, malaria, yellow fever. These fuckface pieces of shit know vaccines work.

I really had to come to grips with the fact that the reason I was sitting in misery and bitterness about “the wrong someone did to me” was 1000% my fault. While I can’t control what someone else does, I can control my reaction & I’m responsible for my own healing.

I think this February 28th everything boycott is important to participate in. This is famously a day when most people might see their paychecks in the bank and it’s very natural to start spending that day. Personally, I’m going to try to continue it through the weekend.

Just saw a thread about a guy calling into cspan saying his diabetic supplies increased from 5 dollars to 80 dollars and somebody in the comments, probably multiple people but I stopped reading, replied “FAFO” and I can’t stress enough how much you need to stop doing that shit

Will be real cool when everyone in the country gets their mandatory X account.

Since federal health information is getting harder to come by, I thought I'd share this new resource. Cornell's College of Veterinary Medicine launched an online Avian Flu Resource Center--a one-stop clearinghouse for trustworthy information on bird flu. www.vet.cornell.edu/highly-patho...
