You can get rid of all the brown/gay/trans/whatever people you want in the US but your life will still suck. You will still feel unfulfilled and meaningless. You will still be insignificant. What is it going to take for you to face your real problems? You know who you are. Fuck you.

Race is not biological unless you count family as "race."
A group of folks living around each other will swap genes and a pattern will emerge of health and behavior based on mostly environmental factors and some of those genes.
That's not "race" There is no "race" in biology. 🧪

amazingly fucked up that the NYT is uncritically publishing the claim, “Race has some biological reality.”
that is, definitionally, racism. textbook.

Just reposting this which I think is the most gorgeous thing I have seen in my career - a critically endangered orange-bellied parrot feeding on a carpet of daisies after an ecological burn. This was the first time they’d had the chance to feed naturally in 15y and was wonderful to witness

Good morning from my corner of Hookland.
The green grandmother has no words for you, but you may understand much from her if you have that sort of courage.

Casar: There’s a debate happening about how we should respond to the oligarchy. Some say that we should just roll over and play dead. Others say we should stand and fight.
Anybody here think we should roll over and play dead?
Crowd: Nooo… chants “stand and fight”

In Shropshire, there was a prevailing belief that the last person to be buried in a churchyard would haunt the area, lingering on until another burial took place. Some became fierce guardians of the graveyard until another death allowed them to rest easy.💀⚰️🪦
