SC ➡️ Chicago. Lady of negotiable affection. If you want beef then bring the ruckus. Beer connaisseuse; Chicken Boo and Saved By The Bell enthusiast. Unhinged always. She/her
Pinned
I think everyone was doing intros a few days ago but here’s mine:

I’m Riley and I use she/her pronouns; if you need to practice they/them I’m fine with those too!

I have three cats, and I love beer, food, and travelling. I have far more education than makes sense and I bartend for a living.
To be fair I also would fall asleep (in self defense) if Marco Rubio tried to speak to me
Trump dozes while Marco Rubio speaks to him directly next to him. Just insane optics.

Hey, gang. Doing a delivery order to try & ride out what I think is a weird endometriosis flare up & avoid the ER. I am so scared of hitting a new month at $0 without a job. Any help is appreciated, as are shares. I'm sorry I have to keep asking.

He thinks it's wrong for a reporter to ask "an insubordinate question" because in his mind -- and in most of his experience -- White House reporters are usually very submissive to authority.
Q: Why wait for Congress to release the Epstein files? Why not just do it now?

TRUMP: It's not the question that I mind. It's your attitude. I think you're a terrible reporter. It's the way you ask these questions. You start off with a man who's highly respected asking him an insubordinate question

Looked at an A&M fan when it was 30-3 and congratulated him on the win. He thought I was being snarky.

No no, sir. No no. I have been a Gamecock far too long not to see what was coming.

Sincere concern: Chicago has an influx of out of towners who seem prone to ramming vehicles even in good conditions. Are they going to be out driving on Sunday/Monday?

It’s an in-joke that when Black women get bored, we go get a degree & pivot. It’s a whole lotta Black women unemployed right now, watching Rep Jasmine & Kamala & now the Detroit mayor etc, and I don’t think *those people* understood what they’ve activated by forcing us to have time via layoffs

Hi! People are allowed hope and joy, actually! And one good night doesn't erase that our federal government is still authoritarian! Both can be true! Love you!

My momma bestie is my auntie
My auntie friend that go to her church is also my auntie
My 75 year old cousin... is also my auntie

"Auntie" is what happens when you understand the expansive proposition of family

"That's not your aunt" is what happens when you live outside of restorative community

My partner and I are both white (I’m English+German and he’s Dutch+Norwegian, so like WHITE white) and we both have chosen family we refer to as aunt/uncle/cousin/brother/sister.

Anyone claiming Mamdani doing the same is a scandal is REACHING.
Sorry I refuse to entertain the complete non-existent world where white people don’t know that countless cultures, including some of their own but certainly diasporic racialized ones, call their mom’s cousin’s friend’s sister they grew up with “cousin” and call close women elders “aunt/auntie”

Hello @govpritzker.illinois.gov please see the below
I haven't seen people here mention this letter from the mayor of Illinois' 2nd-largest city (Aurora, 40+% Latino)

to the Aurora Police

following egregious attacks by immigration in Aurora and related protests

So here it is!

Scolding people for being mad about architecture isn’t the move

Meet people where they are. We’re mad in the same direction. Use the entry point to build a relationship and then drop the more serious stuff in.

Hey, y'all. I've gotten about $30 total in the last two weeks. That's frightening in my situation. Small amounts add up & shares are appreciated. I promise I'd rather have steady work, but I have to ask for help until that happens.
I'm a queer, disabled, transient creative in need of consistent mutual aid. Last month my freelance contract was terminated after only 9 months, after 2 years without any gigs. If you're having a solid pay day, anything you can toss my way on Venmo (MirandaBrave) or ko-fi is appreciated & crucial.
