Taking D’Angelo when there’s an 80 year old decrepit orange clown around is really unfair…

Today we honor the rich history, culture, and resilience of Indigenous communities—past and present.

As we recognize Indigenous Peoples’ Day, let’s commit to telling the truth about our history, protecting sacred lands, and fighting for justice that includes everyone.

Cubs because I love Chicago and they are the team that one of my dearest friends loves the most. Seeing a game at Wrigley was an amazing experience (and I had the best hot dog of my life at that ballpark).

A student who is dyslexic & has never liked reading saw books on my desk & thought they looked interesting. She asked if she could borrow one & then spent the rest of the hour reading, & told me that it’s the first time she’s actually wanted to keep reading & couldn’t wait to get home to read more.

There’s no evidence to suggest Tylenol causes autism.

There’s no evidence to suggest early circumcision causes autism.

There’s no evidence to suggest we’re in an “autism epidemic”.

There is evidence to suggest that RFK Jr is a eugenicist who’s a menace to society and public health.

It’s wild the agents who have videographers following them never seem to have footage of what they claim those they are arresting did

Democrats need to go as hard branding protest as patriotism as Republicans are labeling it all insurrection.

Joey Bada$$ giving his signature side eye (he only has one, but he works it for all he’s got) is ready for the weekend!

A gray and white Shih Tzu named Joey Bada$$ with one eye stands outside in the grass and leaves.

Letitia James is a former public defender and public advocate. She's spent most of her career on the side of the marginalized and underprivileged. And let's be honest: Trump is attacking her because he doesn't want Black women in positions of authority in this country.

It's so ridiculous that MAGAs believe the GOP line that "Democrats want to give free healthcare to immigrants."

My dudes immigrants aren't getting free healthcare in the United States. American citizens aren't even getting free healthcare. You know who is?

The people lying to you about immigrants.

When you pull up at a stoplight and see one, and whatever you’re listening to goes with its movement…it’s an automatic upgrade to your day. Like a lil music video that only you see, and only for a few seconds.

He is absolutely racist, without a doubt. I think he fears the day that white America wakes TF up and actually listens to Black women because his shortcomings will be made all the more obvious, and his racism can’t allow him to believe in anything other than his own “exceptionalism.”

JD Vance fears Black women. As he should, because he knows that he could NEVER have the strength and principles Black women have shown throughout history and today.

We all owe her so much and her story shines a light on the racist actions still occurring in medicine. This is always one of the most popular book choices in my AP Lang classes!

74 years ago today, this lady died. Her illegally obtained cells have potentially saved 10s of millions of lives ever since.

Vaccine developments, cancer research, toxicology and genetic testing....

she is literally the basis for modern medicine. That no one can afford today

📌Trump’s vile speech should have triggered a national discussion reaching a fever pitch right now. Instead, we’ve moved onto today’s drama: the predictable GOP shutdown of a govt. they so clearly hate.
We have dealt with shutdowns, but never a president intent on using our military to attack us.

THE ENEMIES WITHIN

It is incredible that just 48 hours after the most dangerous, anti-American speech ever given by a president, too many have just moved on to the next thing ...

Now might be a good time for Democrats to remind people that when they return to power they will not hesitate to prosecute people who murder civilians.
