No. Not necessarily. Most do it at home. Or are supposed to do it at home. Nothing wrong with it within the home with proper hygiene.

Rubio is claiming that they did not need Congress permission because it was a law enforcement mission. The US is behaving as a global police state, extending its own arbitrary legal decisions to the whole world.

This is not a problem just for Venezuela.

I am struggling with what might be a generational experience. The gulf war was pretty politically formative for me. It’s not history so much as memory this time.

It is destabilizing to see almost the exact same gameplan but this time without the guardrails that at the time I took for granted.

Screaming "wtf" and waiting for a spontaneous uprising is going to discourage you. There won't be a spontaneous uprising. That's just not where the people are at.

Organize for the long term. Build community. Build resilience. Have a strategy for whatever corner of this thing you're working on.

Annoyed that Tank's 1st question to Jill Scott on this podcast is her being a sex symbol.

Be 4real. Are you 12? Luckily the convo has steered towards craft and artistry.

On Saturday, the U.S. conducted a “large-scale strike” against Venezuela. Before the escalation, there had been 35 known strikes against alleged drug smuggling boats in South American waters since early September, according to announcements from the Trump administration.

Among the many reasons you don’t kidnap a foreign head of state at gunpoint even if you have the capability, is that it sparks consequences you can neither control nor anticipate.

I feel my urge to read coming back but I want to read an urban fiction. The problem is that the authors I trust with urban romance and fiction have not come out with anything and I am no longer on KU (blessings).

So I reread of the audios I have? I really need to start collecting the paperbacks.

Finally got to season 2 of Percy Jackson. Episode 1 of season 2 is a big jump from season 1. Pacing is better. Grounding of characters is better.

Do the kids annoy me sometimes? Yes, they're kids. I enjoy them figuring it out while getting on my nerves and their parents be trash. Lol.

This is why when people say, "Coach is back." I KNOW they are not who they think they are.

My Black Southern self has never not liked Coach. My grandmother put me on.

Are we really to believe that voluntary migration coming into a nation where Native Americans already lived + involuntary enslaved importation was going to be unaffected by those to other subject matters? Pre-orders are available for a 3/10 delivery of a book that took 16 years of research. fin//

Cover reveal. It's about how & why colonies/states controlled international & domestic migration until 1888, why in the late 19th c the feds took over, & what it was like for politically disfavored groups to live under that arrangement of power. You can't understand voluntary migration history 1/

It's 5 am and I'm still up. So annoyed

Mind you, Wunmi's husband is Black American; she was gonna learn eventually. So glad she was able to connect back.

Hoodoo is Kongo theology with some of its herbalist roots in the Yoruba tradition. Benin shows up in Hoodoo as well. There's a reason why the diasporic traditions are complementary.

Lock in 4real. Chiron goes into Taurus next year.

REMEMBER, astrology is historical observance. Let's use all the tools we have to not repeat history.

I heard it's a multidimensional fantasy scifi romance... with monsters... kinda cyberpunkish... and I said, "That sounds different."

I need different in 2026. Also, illumicrate edition is gorgeous.

I may pick it up just because it's lesser known/not as popular.

Some of you need to take yourselves more seriously. Idk who that’s for but that just popped into my head.
