These 3 books have been revelatory for me this year, as far as thinking about how to address the current state of things using the blueprints provided by our ancestors.
None of this is new. We don’t have to panic & build everything from scratch.
You picking up what I’m putting down?

Watching videos of those violent ones in the ill-fitting tactical gear. It is obvious how untrained & unintelligent they are. Just bullies with weapons.
They can be sabotaged.

You’re very welcome!
I like LibroFM because they let you pause your subscription for a few months if you want. Helps when I need to catch up.
Thriftbooks has a great selection of used books, too. They don’t directly support indie bookstores but they do help charitable causes.

I just recently heard from my local book seller, that people selecting her book shop as their nominated store meant half of her January rent was covered! Such a big impact for a small business in an quiet area.
Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.
Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.
They are not the same.

pleasure isn’t just motion or touch. it's curiosity. the way someone tilts their head in thought, laughs in the dark, or claims a space beside you, the erotic lives there too.

Hon every time you dummies on here try to bring up Zionism to me I need to remind you all that way down the list of shit I care about is Israel or palestine. Top of the list are my Black family, friends and neighbors. You can't come to me with white leftist bullshit cause I won't give a fuck.

My favorite part of the story of Robert Smalls is how he returned to Beaufort after the war and bought the house where he’d been enslaved, which had been seized from his enslaver by the Union for unpaid taxes
If you need inspiration to keep going right now, may I recommend the story of Robert Smalls, who stole a confederate steamboat and piloted his family and almost 20 others to freedom and went on to become one of the first Black people elected to Congress ✊🏽

Go ahead and do it. Anyone who judges you can kick rocks. I have one in his backpack and another that goes in a little "wrist watch" band. Not perfect but it has definitely helped keep track of him in big crowded places.

Y’all are on here going back and forth with those pale people again!
Stop it! It’s Saturday.
Go spend some time with your nieces & nephews.
Go join your neighborhood 🧊 watch.
Go flick your bean.
Anything but arguing with them.

Because they know exactly what they are doing with that doe-eyed “how did we get here?” act.
They know how we got here. They just want to keep us focused on them and not us.
Reclaim your time & tell them to go read a book. It is 2026. Decenter them. You have better things to do!

No, it is not appropriate to use a phrase specifically created to rectify the lack of visibility of murdered Black women. White women do not have to worry about their names being ignored when they are harmed.

I remember someone said that it’s funny that the liberal solution to cop violence always tends to be giving them more funding. If things are going well, it’s more reason to fund them more. And if they’re going badly, then they need more funding for trying and hiring even more cops.
