*PSA*: pleeease stop joking about “beef-curtains” or “mud flaps”. It’s misogynistic and racist (most curtain-havers are black women btw). Thank you for listening.
Who will I upset with this meme? 😂

With new hype for Lilo and Stitch with the trailer, I just want to remind everyone that instead of casting Nani as a NATIVE Hawaiian they cast her as the daughter of a white real estate agent who moved to Hawaii to sell real estate. PLEASE BOYCOTT THIS MOVIE.

More info in the thread below.

Now imagine if Hitler was a multi-billionaire and Geobbels was the richest man in the world. That’s what we’re dealing with this time around.

Um yeah this is just false. I definitely do.

My faith in @msnbc.com has completely slipped. If you can’t see that cancelling @joyannreid.bsky.social in today’s climate is a dangerous and racist move, I don’t know what to tell you. Shame on MSNBC.

just so we’re clear: the tiktok ban is because people were getting critical information about israel. that sparked a red scare about ~communist china propaganda influencing our youth~ which then became concerntrolling about datamining.

MAGA disinformation already in high gear from Trump down.

The mass murderer in New Orleans was a U.S. Citizen who served in the United States Army. He was born and raised in Texas.

Trump will use this atrocity as an excuse to demonize immigrants because facts and reality don't matter to him.

Christmas is not “merry” for everyone.

I have memories of my momma crying & being depressed during this time of the year. Being poor and trying to make it happen for family is hard as hell.

To my struggling sistas and brothas: never give up. I see you, you’re doing your best.

I agree! We should leave, genuine positive reviews. There’s enough of us to make a difference. If everyone who signed the petition, leaves a positive review, we can shift the impact of review bombing.

Let’s aim for that. #RenewtheAcolyte

Amen! Six Triple Eight should be required watching in US schools. It’s a more than a great film: it’s a testament to what happens when we remove barriers to storytelling and focus on the people so often marginalized in our history books.
Just cried my way through the Six Triple Eight movie on Netflix. Tyler Perry, Kerry Washington, and the rest of the film’s crew really did right by those amazing ladies.

Highly recommend the movie for those who haven’t seen it. Best war movie I’ve seen in years.

Virgie Tovar is in the news again and the negative responses only prove her point: fatness isn’t about health. It’s about stigma, respect, and people feeling they have the right to comment on how others live life and perceive themselves. Virgie is going to crush it as SF’s Weight Stigma Czar!!

All school shootings are awful but at least this Wisconsin one has a positive side-effect: we can use this when sexists complain about female protagonists in action movies and games being “unrealistic.”

There’s a large swath of white people who like to drape their racism in a passionate concern for animals. It’s a thing.

Fuck it. Trans folks need MATERIAL SUPPORT.

The Acolyte is more than a show for queer and BIPOC folks. It’s a sense of belonging, knowing that our stories matter, and that companies are willing to take a risk on us. #SaveTheAcolyte

I’m 100% ok with gatekeeping incels. If you can’t handle a woman being the protagonist or a non-white person being the protagonist of a video game, I don’t think you deserve to play games.

Yes. Yes! Many yt men don’t realize they inhabit only one version of reality. It happens to be the popular version, but there are endless modalities, forms of indigenous, black and brown “magic” (knowledge) that refute and will eventually overcome closeminded yt reality. We dream! We manifest!
Not to be upset on main but it's made me pretty upset *since I was a kid* how some white men will do this whole "jokingly asserting that the parts of reality they can't perceive actually don't exist"

Given some solace by the fact that that has historically driven white folks crazy about each other

Donning my tinfoil hat for a sec: I’m VERY skeptical of any story from authorities about how they apprehended a suspect. If you’ve flown internationally in the last 5 years, you know many airports scan faces and don’t require physical passports on reentry. That’s TSA. Imagine the FBI version.
In the end, it was the simple act of distributing photos — not sophisticated facial recognition technology — that led the police to a man they are calling a “person of interest” in the fatal shooting of the UnitedHealthcare CEO in Manhattan last week.
How Photographs Led Police to Person of Interest in UnitedHealthcare CEO Killing
The key was not advanced facial recognition technology. An employee at a Pennsylvania McDonald’s reported the man after seeing a widely circulated image of the suspect.

Call me woke if you want… but golf is one of the most harmful, wasteful, and toxic (chemically and socially) activities known to humanity. Actually, don’t follow me if you’re a golfer. It’s THAT serious.
I know you're all thinking it.

This.
They don't mean crime. They mean a visible non-white population/homelss/sex worker population.

The people that they hate being visible is crime to them.
