Kudos to Temple for standing by its mission to ensure those who have confronted systematic barriers continue to have access to higher education. It shows how a university actually committed to DEI responds as opposed to one that lied to us all these years.

Everybody and everything is just idiotic. Lazy-mindedness run the fuck amok.

“Why are corporations pushing so hard for AI in everything?” gizmodo.com/microsoft-st...

thank you to Kendrick and the Eagles for making terrible people angry tonight

ASL interpreters who work in the arts (concerts, opera, theatre, etc) deserve to be valued as artists too. it takes so much skill to be this good at capturing the FEEL of music beyond just translating the meaning of the text and it’s an invaluable accessibility service

An American flag built on the backs of Black people... Black music protesting white political terror in registers they never hear; reminiscent of ancestral spirituals embedded with instructions for runaways All this in New Orleans... What a moment

As bad as the Chiefs got their asses kicked they didn’t even take the worst L of the night! #SuperBowl

We are veering into Madden territory where you want to win by 100 and will be disgusted if the opponent even gets a field goal. #FlyEaglesFly

Always… #FlyEaglesFly

I’m bout to move into an Aldi and do summers in Costco.

Stop gaslighting that egg prices were why people voted for him. That data point is narrative being pushed by media AND people who don't want to admit why they voted for him. And you are pusing it too. We ALL are worried about prices but only TWO of the demo groups voted accordingly.

All of my mentees have heard me say to them, "They are lucky to have you." Listen to me. Let me make it plain: ANYONE excelling *in any space designed specifically for them to fail* is doing amazing, sweetie.

1. School systems across the United States are declaring they will not comply with Trump's anti-trans executive order. MCPS, Maryland said they will fiercely protect their teacher sand students. Columbus City Public Schools president: "bring it on." Subscribe to support my journalism.

If you work anywhere in education and aren’t willing to take a similarly unequivocal, students-first stance, you probably should not be working anywhere in education.

RFK’s racist blathering harkens back to the yellow fever epidemic in Philadelphia where Black people—told we were immune—were asked to care for the perishing and neglected sick. 10% of free Black Philadelphians died.

Never take anyone who mentions IQ scores seriously.

Man no shit.

All of Philly like…

Muting or blocking all excuse-makers, devil’s advocates, equivocators, and dissemblers. Online and offline.

Giving “benefit of doubt” to folks who have been screaming their intentions to do harm…hell of a way to let down the people who thought you were one of the few “good” billionaires.

“Elon is just trolling and thinks fhe Nazi salute is funny,” What does a Nazi have to do to make MSM believe they are a Nazi? Promote Nazis on the site they bought? Support the far-right in Germany? Talk about Nazi ideas? Oh, wait. The total inability/complacency of MSM couldn’t be more clear.

Just like all those years of media saying “racially tinged” and shit like that instead of “racist”…clear editorial decisions and complicity.

Only saying once on bsky b/c I know it is not entirely useful, but it is totally exhausting that in 2016 some of us said “they’re Nazis,” some of us screamed “they’re segregationists,” and a whole lot of very serious people now posting about them being Nazis and segregationists gaslight us for years

The Expanse used the first two episodes of season 2 to introduce two of the baddest women in sci-fi back to back. Hello again Bobbie Draper and Camina Drummer.

They will literally come up with any harebrained scheme to stop school shootings, including relying on AI, so long as they don't have to deal with the guns.

“You’re a bright spot,“ said the sun to a dimming, flickering lightbulb. Giving it the energy to shine a little brighter for a little longer.

Hijacking this a bit to post a take but it's been my belief that some component of the radicalization pipeline actually does tie directly into things like "help your mom wash dishes", or more specifically, that radicalization finds purchase more easily w/ folks who are missing connections like that

Merely hiring a person of color in any desirable role is gonna get categorized as a verboten “DEI effort.” Mark my words.

Truly disgusting.

Explain it to me again. Tell me more about the Romans and autism.

Yeah, his defenders are enablers and adherents. Can’t parse this shit.

No executive order has the power or the right to tell you who you are. F*ck that noise. Surround yourself with love, and when you’re ready, get back in this fight. We need you. 🫶🏽

Somehow "Elon Musk Is a Genius" and "Elon Musk Doesn't Know How Hands Work" are being said by a lot of the same people

Racists be loving racism up until the moment someone identifies it as such.
