Just because you can't see the iceberg doesn't mean there's no iceberg, son. It just means you need to get off your ass and move to a different perspective to be able to see it

I would also add that Gawker while constantly mourned as a victim, was publishing that Black journalists who commented on this were just “touchy” for years

Also this phenomenon is why Sinners resonates with us all
Okay maybe this is too hot a take for 5:30pm on a Saturday but I think meme accounts that don’t give any attribution paved the way for people to accept AI words and imagery because it separated culture and entertainment from the idea that someone had to have those thoughts and compose them.

another thing McBride points out is that historically successful civil rights movements were willing to compromise. which is very true! but we’re not being offered a trade, we’re just being told to cede ground.
i listened to the Ezra Klein/Sarah McBride interview, and her entire position revolves around a completely unproven assertion: the idea what caused the shift in polls away from trans rights is the rhetoric of the left. that might be true, but i haven’t seen any real evidence for it.

AOC: Being taken is wrong, it is illegal, it is a violation of his First Amendment rights, it is an affront to every American, and we will not allow—and will continue to resist—the politicization and the continued political persecution that ICE is engaged in.

Reminder: Afghan interpreters helped US troops, some were executed. For their invaluable services, they were given Special Immigrant Visas and invited to live in the USA. Now Trump’s DHS is threatening to deport them. Does the USA keep our promises anymore?

And when they came in their own unmarked vehicles with no plates, wearing masks and body armor and carrying long arms with patches and insignia that also said ICE, and started rounding up other ICE and stuffing them in unmarked vehicles, I said

SO LONG, SUCKERS 😂
just saw a group of masked men stuffing masked ICE agents into an unmarked car, who were saying "we're ICE we're ICE!" but the abductors shouted to the crowd "no we're ICE!" no one knew who was ICE, so no one in the crowd said anything.

I am glad that today the governor signed a new law repealing New York's ban on providing food and water to people waiting in line to vote. However, it should be clearly noted that this was the result of successful litigation brought by the Brooklyn NAACP -- which the state fought and lost in court.

New footage just dropped of ICE agents in Bell running through an intersection and driving erratically — in private vehicles (with no lights or sirens), causing a traffic accident after which they jumped out of their pickup truck with machine guns drawn. This is what set everything off in Bell.

Compton, CA: A masked, heavily-armed man wearing body armor jumped out of a SUV today to kidnap a local resident.

He forgot to put the vehicle in park, causing it to roll down the street damaging other cars. He jumped in the vehicle (which had no platess) and drove off without identifying himself.

Watching NTs strike the fuck out yet again. I'd ask if the researcher ever considered just asking us but I can guess the answer to that (even though this study concludes I'm not supposed to be able to do that.)

NT arrogance and entitlement ffs.

For people with autism, unforeseen events come as no surprise
People with autism are less surprised by unexpected occurrences than are typical adults — a possible consequence of overestimating the instability of the world.

been saying it for years, Texas is only Republican because Republican gerrymandering forces it to be
While we wait for the Supreme Court to rule in a critical redistricting case from Louisiana, this is what the GOP is up to in Texas and Ohio. Remember the GOP's plan is to make it harder for you to vote and easier for them to cheat.
