Just got asked to teach my 1st dance class in abt 15 years! One of my former students is having me guest-teach his class, such a cool full-circle moment.

I learned from authentic OG's from NY & LA who built these dances & I'm stoked/honored that they want to carry that forward in their generation🥹

My rounds from the popping demo at Roasty’s memorial jam. My first time doing a performance if any kind in over a decade! Pretty rusty, but I got through it without hurting myself 😅

When a law enforcement officer aims a weapon at someone wielding a camera, it is procedurally unsound and unprofessional in two fundamental ways:
1) It is disproportional to any actual threat and is instead an unprovoked threat against a citizen.
2) The officer is a crazed, untrained asshole.

Call me a libtard but this doesn't seem like something that should be happening in the United States of America.

Maybe It Will Happen Today @today-maybe.bsky.social · May 21

Digital illustration in comic book style of 1966 Adam West Batman. He’s making a very manic and stressed out gritted-teeth grimace as he runs with a comically large bomb with a lit fuse held in both hands over his head. Three speech bubbles, the last being a red and orange burst, contain the words ‘Maybe it will happen today!’ 🦇 💣

grimly fucking funny that Marjorie Taylor Greene is turning out to be one of the most reality-based Republicans. getting a little chuckle out of that www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Marjorie Taylor Greene doubles down on her unexpected break with Republicans over health care in shutdown fight

The MAGA firebrand sparked criticism from GOP leadership after giving voice to a key Democratic demand — extending expiring Obamacare funding to avoid premium hikes.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.
