At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.
in case you're curious about how angry Minnesota is about ICE, it was -20 today
ahhhh, making me want to watch again
I hear & see you, sis <3
Today broke me. Just sitting in my car weeping for Renee Good and her children and still for Mike Brown. Itβs so scary how comfortable people all with a loss of life.
Renee Good.
@kenniejd.bsky.social in case you need something to watch πhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVKgY1ilx0Y
Oof. Hope that person gets some much-needed peace. That comment had nothing to do with your amazing story π«ΆπΎ
These Megan Kelly clips are pretty good proof that a lot of people have gotten much much much worse over the last 10 years
π₯² the actual best.
So relate to this lol
I love the smell of the autumn
My wife is unflappable after 13 years together. She barely noted as I cut the top crust off my chicken pot pie and set it aside. She didn't raise an eyebrow as I spooned out the chunks of chicken and gave them to her. She huffed a bit as I explained that the chicken is my least favorite part.
skip the phone scroll & start with breath
Saw this little guy hanging in a gorgeous hibiscus plant during my recent vacation. Wife was shocked by my interest as I was afraid of snakes when she met me 13 years ago. But thanks to adorable & educational reels from snake keepers, Iβm quite fond of them now.
Wife and I watched V for Vendetta again yesterday. Seems relevant, ya know.
Clearly this is not about making DC, or any of us, safer.
KPop Demon Hunters was a really fun movie!
I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. Iβm sorry we have to live through this.
I really do think this might be the worst Supreme Court of all time, which is saying something for an institution that coexisted with slavery
These motherfuckers are even worse imo bc they are *also* out here using antebellum reasoning and pursuing antebellum goals but well post bellum!
This is an assault on the Reconstruction Amendments by a Neo-Confederate Court wedded to the far-right argument that those amendments were illegitimate and destroyed the original intent of the Founders, which was to create a white man's country
Justice Sotomayor dissenting on birthright citizenship case: "The gamesmanship in this request is apparent and the Government makes no attempt to hide it. Yet, shamefully, this Court plays along. Because I will not be complicit in so grave an attack on our system of law, I dissent."
If youβre an American should watch the Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown ep on Iran. A deeply humanizing look at a country full of people just like you and me. I watched it after Anthony died and it moved in ways that are hard to relay. I also immediately ran out to try kabob koobideh and tahdig.
Take note.
The American people were lied to about Vietnam, with tragic consequences.
The American people were lied to about Iraq, with tragic consequences.
The American people are being lied to again today. We cannot allow history to repeat itself.
