@GoliathBook made a COVID joke & I’m laughing to stop from choking on my immense rage & despair:

Look guys, if we can fuck off enough we can get to the OMEGA VARIANT. Just think of how proud we will all be if we manage to end the human race by something called the Omega Variant.

I sort folks in my life into 2 categories:

1. Folks who actively fight to change the status quo that inevitably & repeatedly leads to mass murders like #atlantaspa

2. Folks who do not

One guess where the overwhelming vast majority are sorted. One guess and a shot of whiskey.

The bedrock of the American police superstructure is white supremacy.

Asian women have value in this country primarily as sex dolls or servants.

White men remain far and away the most dangerous domestic terrorism threat our nation faces.

Same shit, different day.

Under serious consideration: changing my profile name forever to “another Amanda Gorman stan account”

[Mad Alice @AliceLiuMcCoy]

@TheAmandaGorman’s poem was unquestionably the most moving moment in a day full of incredibly moving moments.

[Amanda Gorman @TheAmandaGorman]

Thx @Lin_Manuel ! Did you catch the 2 @HamiltonMusical references in the inaugural poem? I couldn’t help myself!

[Charlene been gone for a while, over on bsky now @CharleneCac]

Many of the same people who worked their asses off in the GA runoff understand that electoral politics will not liberate us -- they are clear that it is tactical work towards creating the communities we deserve.

Please consider that in your post-election hot-takes.
