Is it just me, or does it seem the press is actually and completely terrified to report about Donald Trump's physical and mental health the way it would have if anyone else were president?

If you gotta ask for a date, he don’t like you like that. Block him. No fault of yours, just incompatibility.

If you gotta ask for him to spend $ on you, he don’t like you that. They gone offer that up first. Block him.

If he only offers peen, he don’t like you like that. & thats okay.

Angelina Jolie went and fucked that lady’s husband, married him, and now look at all the hell he’s giving her.

Related book recommendation for anyone interested:

Rooted in the Earth - Reclaiming the African American Environmental Heritage by Dianne D. Glave

It’s a good read that counters the idea that “a meaningful attachment to nature and the outdoors is contrary to the Black experience.”

Posting this for anyone- myself included- who gets questioned for doing “white people stuff.” No, it’s our stuff. How do you think our ancestors survived, not just in the colonial diaspora, but in our ancestral homelands?
Being in nature is returning to our native roots also. 🍄 🌱

CHICAGO (WGN) - A WGN creative services department employee was detained by two Border Patrol officers and later released after federal agents
swarmed a busy intersection on Chicago's North Side Friday morning, at the height of rush hour.
WGN is not naming the employee, as station policy requires blurring faces and not identifying those who have not been charged with a crime.
Witnesses on site who captured the incident on video spoke to WGN about the moments leading up to the staffer's detainment.

All I want in life is to persuade everyone, when encountering politics & culture, to ask, "why are we talking about this?" I mean that very literally: anything you encounter on your screens reflects a choice. Someone covered that, talked about that, rather than the many other things out there. Why?

Police Said They Surveilled Woman Who Had an Abortion for Her 'Safety.' Court Records Show They Considered Charging Her With a Crime

Court records show that the narrative Flock and a Texas Sheriff's Office has told the public isn't the whole story, and that police were conducting a 'death investigation' into the abortion.
