Mr Beast is basically AM from I have no mouth...tormenting humans eternally to punish us for creating him

working for a caribbean film festival, i really wish we had a profitable and supported streaming system for caribbean films. i have a privilege to watch films/documentaries that reflect our culture in so many amazing narratives. it hurts that so many of us wouldnt see them

Hella corny to me to know Kanye out there being a routinely awful person and saying the most cruel things and you bumping his music still. That kinda lack of integrity is weak af to me personally. But ya'll do you.

I don't want to belabor this point but there is a plethora of study pointing to how people will continually choose lower prices over healthier foods which are priced out of their range. We constantly let people who have money and access punish poor people for trying to just exist rather than help.

Tyler Perry will get up on stage and make these amazing speeches lauding so many aspects of Blackness and sound so amazing as he waxes poetic then proceed to make the most ridiculous, trashy, and cringe worthy shows that barely represent anything he would speak on in real life.

Food insecurity and economic inequalities run hand in hand. Often, ppl in power determine that those ppl with the least can only access things if they sacrifice luxury. It hen reserves luxury for middle and upper class society.

WWE deciding to a Roast with Tony Hinchcliffe is some pique racist mess fr. I already know Netflix was trying to sanitize his career further but there are so many reasons why this sucks. You prominently did a Puerto Rican PPV with Bad Bunny and bring this jerk to do this now? Madness.

israel is committing genocide against palestine and the foundation of the united states is being torn apart to punish the people who think this is bad.

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

Breaking News: A wave of Israeli airstrikes has killed more than 400 people, Gaza’s health ministry said, raising the prospect of a return to all-out war. Follow live updates.

They are purposely detaining people in the facilities because they are for profit facilities. Like this is some top level evil stuff to be refusing to let people go back to the previous country and detaining them on expired visas to MAKE MONEY OFF OF THEM. This is just monstrous man.

Elon Musk asking why people are directing hate towards him and just saying he has done nothing to hurt anyone is hilarious. I have to admit it is giving a good laugh knowing he is in crisis mode after going into the federal government and ruining everyone else's life at present. He deserves it all.

I know the buffoonery is just cover for the cruelty and evil idolatry but it can be so hard to look past how stupid and pathetic these people are.

No kings. Not ever. youtu.be/VZk4hhSPMG0?...

Thousands out in NYC today to demand that DOGE… STOP THE CUTS!

See how it's done

We do not have to correct every wrong answer in life.

Everyone will not have the range or depth to offer the best criticism, but they are entitled to hold an opinion. That doesn't mean we have to respond to it or even correct it. Sometimes, the power of being wrong will allow balance for what is right.

One thing I dislike about online discourse is it lives in hard reactionary space. It's less about seeing people as reachable or offering space for nuance and error but everything is so matter of fact that it just garners no room for healthier conversations.

Masculinity is not a shield or a house that protects us when at will. It is just an aspect of societal design that allows us functional space in it. Your masculinity is not going to wither away if you stay in proximity to women or do the same things as they do. It isn't some finite thing.

Too many of us are wearing our culture performatively. They have no real connection to the aspects of community that drive who we are and what it was supposed to resist occurring. They just want it for profit and fame, and those are colonial traits grounded in hate and harm.

To be so weak that you cannot handle the most basic of criticisms or comments by anyone and then they constantly call everyone else snowflakes. The press has done nothing but their jobs by telling the truth.

It is legal to criticize the president. It is legal to criticize the president's actions. It is legal to criticize the president's advisors. It is legal and patriotic and the blood of a healthy society to hold those in power accountable, and even to mock them. Remember it.

30 track albums are made to game algorithms. They are not based in creating a listening experience for fans. It is mainly to get a high algorithmic push off release.

This has eroded the media ecosphere so much. Regular day interactions on issues have deteriorated because there is so little space for people to not be flooded by disinformation and flooded with slop media.

It's Streisand Time, wotta thrill Buy 'Careless People' by Sarah Wynn-Williams from independent bookshops: bookshop.org/p/books/care...

This is great journalism here but also so dastardly on the part of the Government. This is very evil.

You are not beyond being corrupted by ideas of power, wealth, and access.

You will have a very hard time interrogating power or holding it to account standing next to it or in it's shadow. Get out the way and remove yourself from it if you hope to make the change. Power doesn't care about your will for it to change. It is a force that will always shape you first.

Who will be the first top elected Democrat to come out and say that, next time the Dems have power, they will repeal the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, to prevent wannabe autocrats like Trump from using/abusing it?

Canadian woman has been imprisoned by ICE for the last 9 days over paperwork issues with a work visa while trying to enter the United States According to KGTV San Diego, she was transported to a detention facility in Arizona where she was "wrapped in chains" and kept in a cell with 30 other people
