I didn’t miss that part where Kat low key warned Martin that Eva would find a way to take something from him too and I can’t wait for that day because I’m really tired of how one-sided all of this is….#BeyondTheGates

Tomas is probably going to overhear what Kat says to Eva. I don't even want to watch the show because of it. It pains me that the writers don't understand what a gem they have in Kat and instead only want to write other characters who are waymore flawed than her dumping on her 24/7. #BeyondTheGates

So, Eva gets to come to Kat's house uninvited, play victim as if she hasn't done a bunch of grimey shit to Kat, call her a bitch twice and leave unscathed while neither her boyfriend or cousin defend her...I don't know why the writers hate Kat but it's obvious they do and it's not fun to watch. #btg

The writers can sad sack Leslie all they want. She attempted to murder Laura twice for no other reason than to publicly humiliate Nicole and break up her marriage to Ted. Lots of people are poor and don't try to murder other people.

I need #beyondthegates writers to get a clue. Ashley and Derek aren’t it. Having characters talk about them isn’t helping. Don’t be like the other soaps and ignore your fans words. We’re over 4 months in, make the cut #BTG

“We preface everything with an admission that our opponents are right and somehow we’re losing the messaging war. We don’t understand why this isn’t working.”
RFK Jr. is not wrong. We are failing to keep our communities healthy. This message resonates with many.
 
But I have serious concerns about his ability and expertise to lead such a sweeping overhaul of the HHS workforce. We need accountability, not just rhetoric.

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.

If Linda McMahon and the Department of Education believe in "efficiency and accountability" (after laying off half of the department), then I'm sure they'll gladly publish a list of every position that has been eliminated and why that position is no longer needed.

Some higher ed organizations who are loudly circling the wagons against federal funding cuts were oddly silent or circumspect about the earlier attacks on CRT and DEI.

I wish there was a better understanding that these attacks are coming because we failed to repel those.

Somebody needs to channel Audre Lorde and explain to the institutional leaders of higher education that their silence will not protect us. We need to be 10 toes down and LOUD about celebrating and explaining the value of education, the importance of free inquiry, the life saving impact of research..

"No one ever thought this would happen" is dishonest and journalists not pointing that out are doing you all a disservice. Many people said word for word this would happen. You just didn't respect those people. And you need to be honest instead of the feigned surprise for sympathy.

When Congressman John Lewis was a child, he tried to get a library card. He was turned away & told “The Library is not for coloureds” 💔

He’s a civil rights icon, lover of books, recipient of the National Book Award for Young People’s Literature.

“The Library IS for Everyone” 💚

It’s easy to call to complain. Take a minute & make the call to thank them.

Today I saw a post from a friend in Ohio. She called Costco corporate to let them know that she fully supported their stance on DEI hires. The operator thanked her & told her they’re receiving lots of negative calls. 1/2

Did your child lose their book collection in the Los Angeles fires? Are you a teacher at a school that lost its library or your classroom library? Whether you need one book or a whole library, we can replace your books. 📚

Everyone else, please boost this post so we can connect with those in need. 🙏

My most honest advice in fundraising would be to never appeal to people’s empathy. That’s not how any of this works. It never has.

Tell them the dollar amount you need & what it is going to. What each incremental bit they can donate goes to. The human mind is goal oriented.

Give them a goal.
You are truly blessed. We've been trying to raise funds for Octavia's Bookshelf by selling Octavia Butler mugs. The Black population of Altadena are suffering immense loss and it's so heartbreaking to watch them lose everything. Any advice would be appreciated.
