My children ask, _“When will we go home?”_
I wish I had an answer, but the house *is no longer there* 💔
Every day is a struggle, my heart shatters, and I can’t give them safety.

I remember this feeling during my Hebrew Israelite days more than 40yrs ago, and how dismissive white Jews were of starving Ethiopian Jews in 1984-85. White supremacy, man...
today's least surprising data:
"62% of [Black Jewish] respondents reported “increased marginalization” in a Jewish community or space after Oct. 7"
"62% of [Black Jewish] respondents reported “increased marginalization” in a Jewish community or space after Oct. 7"
Some Black Jews feel more ostracized from Jewish communities post-Oct. 7, survey finds
In a survey of 104 Black Jews, 62% of respondents reported “increased marginalization” in a Jewish community or space after Oct. 7.

Just heard re: some ICE agents who raided a Chicago taqueria, then went back to the same taqueria for lunch the following week and got confused when the owner kicked them out, and I realized "jesus these doofuses really do believe we're all living in a video game where the NPCs have no memory"

I'm seeing people wonder why ICE is going after Charlotte.
ICE has been at war with Charlotte's sheriff ever since he won in 2018.
We'd covered this at Bolts back in the day; this quote is from that sheriff:

“When the 8 African American sheriffs took over the largest counties in North Carolina, it became a threat to the good ol’ boy system,” says the sheriff of Charlotte. These new sheriffs broke ties with ICE.
But GOP lawmakers cracked down this week, overbidding the governor’s veto to adopt this law:

Boosted by new supermajorities, Republicans are closing in on legislation to mandate more collaboration with ICE and preempt local policies hard-won by immigrants’ rights advocates.

A Charlotte man was stopped twice by ICE. The first group checked his ID and let him go. Minutes later, another set of agents rolled up, smashed his window, dragged him out, and assaulted him
He was a U.S. citizen…

I don't live in a city. But when I go to one, I usually go for their theatres, their museums, their historical sites, their sports venues.
Why should the people who actually live in those cities be denied the beauty of where they live to please corporations and monopoly realtor companies?

if you cant go in to the office 3 days a week then you really can't complain when cities are hollowed out. cities are places where ppl work and network. getting rid of that makes cities useless
And it's usually something like "but that's not what the literal DNC does!" as if I don't know, as someone who has worked on Dem campaigns, sometimes in conjunction with the DNC what they do. So I'm going to be very specific here: this is the DNC being shitty: www.nytimes.com/2025/11/12/u...
