#SPN #firstwatch Season 15 eps 15x6-15x15. So on the plus side there were finally some episode that were well written, worked thematically & with good acting. On the other hand WTF is with the frankenstein mixup of plots & tropes. Chuck is canonically a bad writer, was he the muse for the season? 1/
I started use USians due to character limits but knowing it also makes covert racists out themselves is value add. How pathetic is a "journalist" saying language can't change & that it can't originate from bias & white supremacy. Also a reminder white trans folks can still be racist & biased

Funny how these folks are ok with all kinds of racist comments on foreign people and mistaking geographical basic info, but if you refuse to acknowledge their appropriation of the American continent name then here comes the tantrum and the lecture
If your argument involves referring to Americans as “USians” it doesn’t matter how cogent the rest of your point may be tbh

This is some Olympic level baby gymnastics to get offended over ppl referring to Americans as "USians" in order to save letters with the current character limits.

The struggle over history, from Wounded Knee to Thanksgiving to ICE detentions, is not a debate about the past. It is a struggle over who defines America and whose humanity matters.

"celebrating" getting referrals to both neurologist & rheumatologist with two treats. Dubai chocolate croissant & my favourite tamarind candy-both way overpriced cause Vancouver but at least all my medical appointments are free. Also really mid tacos cause of this sign.

"My mentor always tells me, 'Kim, dogs don’t bark at parked cars." They’re coming after critical race theory, 1619, intersectionality because these ideas mobilized people. They gave them the language to actually articulate what they were seeing with their own eyes," says Kimberlé Crenshaw.

It’s always about the racism. Particularly targeting Black people and Black woman. They stole the term woke from Black culture, fucked its meaning, and used it to stoke anger. Utter bullshit.
Yep, one of the biggest drivers of the elite panic around “wokeness” was the increasing prominence of Black people and particularly Black women in their fields and we’re seeing that coalition rewarded with the targeting of Black workers.
Since February, according to my latest analysis, almost 600,000 Black women have been economically sidelined. The November 20, 2025, Jobs Report makes clear this isn’t a blip. It’s a structural crisis. That is not a recovery. It is a redistribution of opportunity.

What a reminder that ACAB & that fascists will go after anyone. The "off-duty" cop needs to be investigated, arresting on hearsay is such an overstep but not surprising-want to bet the off-duty cop wants to be an ice goon?
speaking as a virginia beach native if these kind of dudes are plotting against ICE then there is wide runway in public opinion for straight up abolishing the agency under a dem presidency
Kempsville High School assistant principal charged for threats against police, ICE
Virginia Beach assistant principal John Bennett and Mark Bennett charged for conspiring threats against police and ICE agents. Both are held without bond.
