Lots of white, monolingual English-speaking people have gotten tattoos in languages other than English. I got a degree in linguistics earlier this month, so instead of another language I got a tattoo in phonetic transcription.

Shame on SPLC.
SPLC deliberately gutted its Hatewatch imprint. They have no full time investigative reporters working in the intelligence project, which covers the radical right.

They moved the editor of Hatewatch into the comms department.

Spend your money elsewhere during Trump II.
2025 will be a test—one that the SPLC is prepared for.

Our work to advance #racialjustice and #equity is more crucial than ever to help make the social landscape of the Deep South more just, fair and equitable.

I was recently taking to someone who self-identified as being "pro-Trump," but they expressed disgust at the Jan. 6 pardons and the whole birthright citizenship thing, and they actually used the word "dictatorship."

i stride into the grocery store with two guns, blood from the razor sewn into the waistband of my pants drips down my ass while blood from the razor blade in the tongue of my shoe soaks the escape map that shows me how to get back to my house two miles away.

i have forgotten my wallet.
