A federal judge blocked Trump's sweeping executive order ending government support for DEI programs

Bitch I am so tired

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

Exactly. Because the kitchen is genderless - and we all get hungry.

Thousands of federal workers performing essential functions—from food safety to forestry and fire management to nuclear safeguards—have been illegally fired. The Department of Justice has abandoned more than 150 years of independence. The president has claimed that he is a king. It is day 31.

WHATTTTTTT?!?!? I’m convinced we are living in an episode of the Twilight Zone.

She a baddie - on all levels. Just fione AF. Honestly truly.

Words matter. The way things are framed matter. It seems many news outlets are either ignoring or outright rejecting their duty to the public. This is alarming.

Have you ever listened to the Solange’s For Us By Us interlude w Master P? In it he talks about being offered $1M & not being able to use his name. He turns it down bc if they offered him that…he had to be worth maybe $40M, $50M or $10M. As of today he’s worth $200M. This makes me think of that.

Now more than ever, it’s important that clear lines are drawn in the sand. Dems can no longer play polite political games. It may be uncomfortable and lonely at first, but as time passes and actions w real world consequences occur history keeps a score. Ppl remember.

When the math ain’t mathing…

If you have zero education, but learn how to ask AI models the right questions , in many jobs you will be able to outperform someone with an advanced degree, but who is unwilling to use Large Language Models. Just takes a smartphone, curiosity to experiment and a mindset to learn.

In the 1840s J. Marion Sims - the “father of gynecology” mutilated black women’s bodies w/o anesthesia 4 the sake of advancing humanity. Between 1932-72 400 black men were willfully infected with syphilis for Tuskegee Experiments run by the USPHS and CDC 4 the same thing. See pattern the pattern?

Honestly @wired.com your pieces have been absolutely incredible - holding no punches. I applaud ur journalists for their bravery & refusal to cower to suppression tactics. In the end, good journalism has always been & will always be a cornerstone of our democracy. It must b protected @ all costs.

I don’t mean to be an alarmist but fucks sake this is alarming.

Ppl are still playing by the rules & following customs in a time where those in power have long abdicated them. Something’s got to give. “Human beings in a mob What's a mob to a king? What's a king to a God? What's a God to a non-believer Who don't believe in anything?” - No Church in the Wild

Honestly. Truly.

I’ve lived through some intense rap beefs - but this right here has got to be the wildest rap beef ever. It’s giving cinema on all levels.

Let’s brainstorm a minute about the newfound hostility of Elon towards South Africa and Trump’s sudden passionate defense of White farmers in RSA. Ok, they’re both white supremacists. Sure. But this photo is from a Sept 2024 meeting. Everything seemed peachy. I have thoughts….

I’m angry. Righteous, justified anger. So many of us tried to warn. To educate. I tried. But here we are.

I know all of us who understand what is happening are experiencing mental health challenges because of that. The only message of comfort I can offer to this community of readers is this: you are correct. What you think is happening is really happening, and is just as concerning as you think it is.

The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS

😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫

She is who she thinks she is. She will always be. Absolutely.

22%?!?! People can barely pay for eggs?!? The fact that these numbers are not that far off from a credit card interest rate is insane. What is happening?

Somebody suggested to romanticize every part of your life. I will take that advice as I go on my morning hunt for hash browns.

Art is one of the most powerful things in the world and the world needs your art more than ever.

Happy: Black history Black present Black future Black love Black joy Black health Black healing Black people Black community Black family Black kids Black culture Black creativity Black ingenuity Black legacy Black innovation Black liberation Black resistance Black existence ...month🖤

Why should any Black person pay for any news ever again? They completely sold us out with the endless CRT, DEI, cancel culture propaganda for YEARS. They’re just as responsible.

BREAKING: Elon Musk and a network of his associates are exerting sweeping control over the inner workings of the U.S. government. This takeover of multiple government agencies includes the Treasury Department. There appears to be an attempt to use the federal payments system to enact…

This is incredibly dangerous. Incredibly unsettling. Incredibly vile. We are witnessing the destruction of a democracy in real time.

This is a choice. A dangerous one. Nevertheless….a choice. My god….

@corybooker.com hello I used to run the Wendy’s Twitter account and I am begging you to let me help you with the dems social media strategy, I will literally do it for free at this point

It can not be healthy to be in this state of despair and paralysis for the next 4 years. I need to channel my energy either building or helping to build something of lasting impact.

Excited to announce that as of Feb 1 I'll be starting as a fellow at the Applied Social Media Lab at @harvard.edu's Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society, working on @blacksky.app. Much appreciation to @jbellack.bsky.social for his support and belief in what we're building with Blacksky.

Sometimes shit just seems like too much and then you remember that study scientists did where it turned out ice cream is actually healthy and it gives you a little ray of light

I remember being the only black child in my History AP class, having to compose myself as my teacher said slavery was good for America. He then proceeded to ask me if I could provide a convincing argument why this wasn’t true. Yea. That was b4 this mandate. I shudder to think what’ll transpire now.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a declassified World War II-era CIA guide to sabotaging fascism in the workplace has become one of the most popular free ebooks on the internet: www.404media.co/declassified...

This line’s particularly chilling. “What follows is a step-by-step account of how Hitler systematically disabled and then dismantled his country’s democratic structures and processes in less than two months’ time—specifically, one month, three weeks, two days, eight hours, and 40 minutes.”

JUST IN: A new H5N9 bird flu variant has been found in U.S. poultry for the first time at a California duck farm. This variant, linked to the dangerous H5N1 strain, has led to the culling of nearly 119,000 birds to stop the outbreak.

But y’all thought u don’t fit the profile so you turned away and now we’re all in this dumpster fire of a mess - trying to put together pieces of the chaos we warned you AND provided proof would happen - yet you ignored. 1400+ more days of this mess of a group project.

As of 2019, we were ranked 5th out of 203 countries (tied w Kenya) for having the most HIV cases. 5th. This has major implications. This is terrifying.

See how they actually value and uphold the law? Very mindful. Very democratic.
