Hello there~
I’m Raven, a 30+ Black woman based out of northern VA with my husband and our dog. Interests include writing, blogging, kdramas, vinyl collecting, and other activities that can distract me from the fact that the world is on fire.

DHS not realizing that this puts them in danger too certainly shows that this administration still doesn‘t understand consequences.

ICE is hog tying protesters in Portland and removing them on Dollies.

This is dangerous and could cause serious injury.

The Department of Homeland Security thinks it’s a joke.

They’ve shared this video with the tagline “Refuse to Walk? We’ll give you a ride”.

Stay strong Portland.

He honestly needed to go to jail because the general public is so dumb. the narrative would’ve been he beat the case even though he was in jail for the past year.

Same advice I give Hollywood.

Stop ignoring or downplaying the feminine gaze.

I'm not just talking pretty men (although that helps) but how women are portrayed and the stories that are told.

K-Culture’s Paradox: Why Netflix is Winning the Global Race, but Korea’s Film Industry is Starving

If you ain’t brushing your teeth I can’t trust that you’re keeping up with anything else either 😭 omg I just know he don’t brush his tongue either

Young Thug **checks notes ** brushes his teeth once a week but “doesn’t respect” gay men as men.

Because a weekly toothbrushing clearly makes him the authority on manhood.

Black folk will tell you: The 1st thing cops say after an incident is always a lie.🤷🏿‍♂️

They lie because there's upside in it for them, and no downside.

No matter how many times they get caught lying, newspapers will print their next lie as the gospel truth.🤡

And people stop caring before truth hits

David Bier @davidjbier.bsky.social · 6d

ICE lied about the person it shot, claiming he was a "criminal," but NBC finds that he had no criminal history whatsoever. Not even traffic tickets in 12 years! It also lied about the extent of the injuries to its agents....
