What I mean when I say I am praying for someone else is just that I have been telling God about the intense concern I have about them and the love, and letting that love feel connected to God and other people's love for them.

Here's my bud Dusty, being his goofy, intensely earnest & loving self.

I am a "heritage American". Family goes back to at least 1630. Wound up abolitionists, both sides, and civil rights advocates. Mrs. Peabody, Mayflower descendant, got busted at a CR demo 1964. Don't generalize about us, Tucker. We always thought diversity was important. You don't speak for us.

It’s darkly amazing to see people who lambasted progressives for both identity politics and for creating new language for ethnic, racial and gender identities to now go full in in this very thing by trying to be mask white nationalism behind a new term.

Yep. A light-skinned Latina is more palatable. Having said that, she won't win either.
It blows me away people didn't think we were ready for VP Kamala Harris as President

Yet AOC is ready to be President

VP Kamala Harris is badass educated qualified and experienced

White privilege is on both sides
Don't be fooled I see you 👀

I only even felt the need to address this because the guy in Maine who just got his Nazi tattoo covered, which means It’s Fine Now was perpetuating this stereotype online after allegedly doing totally normal stuff like conducting field studies on Black people back when he used to bartend.
The ‘Black people don’t tip’ thing isn’t even true. What’s happening is that you’re getting Read. We see you. Our inklings are survival mechanisms. Why the fuck would I throw an extra bone to a racist?

It’s like how if everybody you meet is an asshole eventually you gotta start doing the math.

I hadn't heard this shit until now and finding out Platner was all in on "black people don't tip" makes way too much sense. And it's a huge red flag for anyone who works in hospitality because it's not true. Everyone who's worked behind the stick knows who undertips and it's not the black community

When I worked at Code2040, and we would tell people, these are the beliefs of the men who refuse to have anything other than segregated companies. Folks would say we were exaggerating.
We must speak plainly about the agenda Elon Musk & other MAGA leaders are pushing. It’s white nationalism.

There’s no room for Black, Hispanic/Latino, Asian, Native, Jewish or all other Americans in Musk’s monocultural vision.

Multiculturalism is superior. We can’t allow Musk & others to end it.

🎼 There's a wild hope in the wind:
her whisper is heard on the breeze.
The gale is her shout that is calling us out.
There's a wild hope in the wind.

O God in the wind, come gather us in,
be our courage and promise.
The future is dim, but we want to live in
to a wild, wild hope.

We hear and see the same media as they do, but vote radically differently. I can only conclude we haven't had the same goals as the majority of White Americans since the civil rights act of 1964 became law. That was the case even when the choice was democracy vs fascism.

Can we stop saying the media is solely to blame for where we are as a country? We got here because of white people.

I will not be taking questions at this time.

It's good that people are turning against ICE, but why couldn't they have done it before? ICE didn't finally show its brutality with the killings of Pretti and Good, they were just continuing what they were already doing, brutalizing others. It's just this time the victims were white U.S. citizens.

Here's a headache.

I cannot take anyone seriously about defunding ICE, while they only mention the murders of Pretti and Good as their reasoning.

Let's not forget about Keith Porter Jr., or the countless migrants in that body count.

You're only upset because minorities aren't the only bodies.
