Love his explanation and breakdown. However, I do not believe we have to conform to their misuse of the word. Marketing is not going to outlast verbal language use.

As with countless other words and phrases, white people stole “woke” from Black English (AAVE) and ruined it.

So apparently I've been a lifelong Rod Temperton fan. Amazing how these all have a similar sound spanning decades .

Here's a small sample of Rod Temperton's writing credits. Google him if you want to know more.

A no-confidence vote is in order for Johnson. But looked here. Their first order of business in January was changing the requirement for that. From 1 person to 9 people of majority party.

LaShawnda Jones @harvestphoto.bsky.social · 7h

Been. There.

LaShawnda Jones @harvestphoto.bsky.social · 7h

Looks like they took care of that first thing in January.

LaShawnda Jones @harvestphoto.bsky.social · 7h

Can a no confidence vote be called for Johnson?

LaShawnda Jones @harvestphoto.bsky.social · 8h

Nah. She'd get two lines.

Though I love this, my heart is actually aching. When black communities are targeted/occupied, shootings, fires, and escalation are almost immediate. We're not even in the forefront now and there's been 3 lynchings in the last month.

How wonderful freedom looks on the privileged.

It's certainly a spiritual. Legion. Investing everything.

The resistance will be televised... On the cartoon network?

Reminds me of that most transformative warning at the beginning of the Good Book:

"of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall die.” ~ Genesis 2:17

We were warned. Why choose paradise when we could have this hellhole?

you guys gotta prepare yourselves for real on what you will do when an ICE raid happens in front of you. remember SALUTE when reporting. REPORT IMMEDIATELY! call the hotline BEFORE you post on social media, BEFORE you text your friends, BEFORE you engage with ANY state or federal officers.

Seeing pictures of an abandoned tamale cart in Pilsen where ICE took a tamale street vendor. Those photos of left behind carts are so haunting. Community members disappeared. Not just vendors but people who have long standing relationships with the community and people.

Wtf?!?! Not the foreign invasion by one of the smallest nations in the world.

I think every registered voter in this country should push for special elections in their districts. Every non-performing senator and congressperson needs to be recalled, removed, sent home.
