So, I’ve been buying different butters for YEARS trying to find the sweet/tart butter some restaurants use with no luck. I decided to make butter today with the last of my heavy whipping cream and it’s exactly what I’ve been looking for 🥹

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

WIC’s application limitations could be especially harmful for Black women living in food deserts like the Mississippi Delta, Cassandra Welchlin said.

She worries about children going hungry because they have difficulties learning and paying attention in school if they do not have access to food.

Its almost like anti-porn laws are never actually about porn. 🤔

Mike Stabile @mikestabile.bsky.social · 3d

Buried in Michigan's antiporn bill is a provision to effectively outlaw "circumvention tools," such as VPNs.

Mark my words: legislators will increasingly leverage porn panic to restrict or ban VPNs, and to limit internet privacy far beyond adult sites.

Experts raise privacy concerns over Michigan bill targeting pornography and VPNs

Rep. Josh Schriver, the bill’s sponsor, says the law is designed to target only producers and distributors of pornography, not everyday internet users.

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

This is the part of American politeness that operates on cognitive disconnect. The people who advocate for campaigns of racial cruelty and cheer ethnic cleansing want you to be polite during dinnertime for the sake of "peace".

It really is insane that working for ICE is a job people choose to have.
