I will never get past posts being called skeets I’m sorry. I associate that word with something else entirely 🤣

Over €800k has been raised for the officer who shot and killed Nahel Merzouk in Nanterre, Paris
A screenshot of a tweet. The tweet reads (autotranslated from French): “Say @gofundme is it your policy to make Arab killers millionaires? I hope you let the kitty rise only for the profit you get from it and that you block access to it like during the pandemic with the freedom convoy!” In this tweet is a screenshot of a gofundme page. The gofundme features an image of police officers on motorbikes. Below it, some text which reads: “Soutien pour la famille du policier de Nanterre 801914 € récoltés sur un objectif de 50000 € 40.1k dons”

(I was not happy with the framing of the Harry & Meghan documentary in relation to Black people and race in the UK. At all. You can make a one off donation to my Buy Me A Coffee or sign up to my Patreon for access; I don’t want my thoughts to end up in the hands of racists (or the Sussex Squad))
A YouTube thumbnail In the bottom left is an image of Jay from Hyphenated History UK YouTube channel. Behind her is an image of Charles III looking down at a Black woman who is kneeling on the floor leaning against him with a joyous expression on her face. Next to them is an image of Meghan Markle holding a bouquet of flowers and leaning down into a handshake with a Black hand reaching out to her. The text hovering above them reads “..really?” And it’s all set against a stark blue background, in keeping with the style/branding for videos on Britain on this particular channel

Desperately taking my Twitter marks and turning them into google bookmarks:
A photograph of bankers boxes stacked on top of each other; specifically, documents Donald trump instructed his staff to take from the White House and hide in his bathroom in a hurry to evade the authorities. There is a wall chandelier to the left of the image, and a shower curtain behind the boxes. In the foreground underneath the chandelier you can see a marble counter and a gilded wall mirror as well

Why are these even on here in the first place to need this option?? 😭

I asked my bestie what she wants for her birthday. She told me “an Audi Q3”

This is the kind of friend I am.

This is also why most of my friends I’ve known for 20+ years, nobody new would put up with this 😭
