That is why they don’t want you to read history.
Because if you did, you’d see that this all happened before.

Today, the Supreme Court allowed a stay in Noem v Vasquez, effectively allowing the US government to detain anyone who "looks" or "sounds" like they might be undocumented, per the arbitrary criteria of "looking" and "sounding" created out of the sh*t-stained drawers of incontinent xenophobia.

New College of Florida is DeSantis's pet project that gives preferential admission to conservative athletes who are not prepared for college.
Faculty are saying they have classroom management issues, which is wild.
The school's finances are shaky, relying on outsized taxpayer dollars.
Failure.

I'm in the writing zone again. I began in #Atlanta. Slowly weaving together my second project. The place: #Brazil. The time: 1700s. The topics: #African manhood, #sexuality and kinship. I'm paying attention to the anatomy of the idea.
