This sounds like a joke but the actual argument here being made by the white voters is that making state policy to enforce Black people’s equal access to the franchise is a violation of the 15th amendment, which was ratified to ensure Black men’s equal access to the franchise.

This is hands down the best Trek fan art I've ever made

This is the result of a lot of people pretending racism is one of the greatest taboos in our culture while failing to address racism substantively. People are appalled by the idea of being called racist while being totally committed to upholding racism throughout society.

7 of Cups
#TarotSky
The 7 of Cups has shown up for us today with a reminder: flights of fancy can be fun, but we musn't fly so far away that we get lost. There is a real world that we really do live in and must contend with.

And we never will. Get your anti-fascist, anti-king, pro-amphibian, America loving butts to a No Kings rally near you this Saturday!

Or come to DC to really make some noise. Blue hair is optional, but democracy is not.

“This heckin’ pupperino fucking hates La Migra,” to paraphrase from @weratedogs.com

these people know how extreme they are

“Instead of stalking our ex-boyfriends online, we started a newspaper.”

Founded in 1966, during the Vietnam War, the original 'Rag' emerged out of a sense that free speech was under fire. It's back again. https://www.texasmonthly.com/news-politics/ut-underground-newspaper-the-rag-revived/

Transness is not bourgeois. This is a wedge idea dreamed up by some gleefully amoral think tank lobotomite to split trans people and make us fight each other. That we relay on modern medicine doesn't make us any more bourgeois than someone who needs antidepressants or cleft palate repair.

Share of yourself and your resources generously, dear friend. These kindnesses are what makes community possible. We are all our brothers' keepers.

Speaker Mike Johnson just said he's completely fine with ICE agents shooting priests in the head with pepper balls and roughing up journalists.

I'm sure he'll tell us soon about how it's the Democrats who are waging a war on religion and free speech though.

apparently “bari weiss doesn’t actually know what journalism is” extends to getting basic facts like the name of a subject right

one of my takeaways from this great piece is that weiss just doesn’t…sound like an intelligent person? or at least, not someone who has thought even a little bit about how and why they think the things that they do. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gieT...

things bullets say

If you are an American citizen, you should be very concerned about what ICE is doing.

it is more important to read books you actually enjoy reading than books that are Literature

PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD!!

The University of Texas-Austin is beginning a process to eliminate the Black Studies, Latino Studies, and Gender Studies departments in the College of Liberal Arts. This is a grave threat to the educational liberty of students, faculty, staff, and the people of Texas. 1/

yearly reminder to people insisting that we view Christopher Columbus as "a man of his time" that *the people responsible for the Spanish Inquisition* thought Columbus was out of pocket

We had Angela Davis speak at my university a couple of years back. One of the many insightful things she said - protest in the way that aligns with your passion. If that’s poetry do poetry or music etc. Because then you will be able to sustain it. If naked bike rides are your passion, 100% do that.

Sometimes it's hard to see the bright side. But even when life circumstances clouds your vision, try to remember the sun is still there. ❤️🌞

Went for a walk, found a coffin in the woods, standard...
