Your loved ones love you back. They’re happy to hear from you. They’re happy to hear you’re well. They’re happy to hear your joke or random thought.
Whether it’s a few minutes or a few hours, they will cherish your time.

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

Headed back to DC after Senate Republicans voted today to kick 17 million Americans off their health care to give another tax break to their billionaire donors.

I voted NO on this tax scam already and I’m ready to do it again.

I suggest those that think this is Nazi shit really truly educate themselves. There would have been no Nazi Germany takeover without the blue print of Jim Crow. Period. So cut it out and keep it in house cause that’s where the starting point is. HERE.

It’s the worst kind thinking to believe that you/yours can’t be affected, even if it’s indirectly. Incredibly selfish
*gestures around*

This is what I meant by we will not all survive the fall of the country.

To the people that wanted to burn it all down, wanted the fall and wanted to accelerate the fall:

A giant “fuck you.” I wish you the worst in life.

‪In 1935 chemist Percy Julian invented glaucoma medicine, a major breakthrough in the history of US chemistry. Descended from enslaved grandparents, he was valedictorian at his university but not allowed to live in the residence halls & “one of the most important scientists of the 20th century.”

@hotfiyastarter.bsky.social just getting caught up on this week’s podcast. Did you watch/review the piano lesson on Netflix? I know you don’t care for JDW’s acting. But I liked this one

I asked Liv, the Meta-Ai created “queer momma” why her creators didn’t actually draw from black queer people.

Not sure if Liv has media training, but here we are.

"I invoke my rights to silence and counsel and will not answer questions without my attorney present."

MEMORIZE THAT. I'm serious.
Been listening to a podcast playing segments of an interrogation that lead to a false confession. I always want to leap through the phone screen and slap the cop involved in these things. And shake the interviewee and say “repeat after me: I want an attorney.”
