So hand me over my violin and let us try to forget for half an hour the miserable weather and the still more miserable ways of our fellowmen.

My retirement might be a van down by the river.

A nervous young girl sits in the front row. She is the only black girl in her class, Tennessee, 1957.

The missing Titan submersible has captured the attention of the world. But many on social media are calling out the disproportionate response compared to the recent tragedy off the coast of Greece. https://t.co/y4cYesYZYF

Yep. Next up is Haaland v. Brackeen. The ICWA case. And... it's a VICTORY for the Indian Child Welfare Act! The court *rejects* all challenges from people who want to adopt babies over the objection of tribal governments.

@Kelly4Humanity For starters you could teach your daughter to have agency over her body. Her body, her choice. You could have a close relationship that encourages open dialogue. You can teach her about safe sex in a way that doesn't shame her or punish her. Love isn't about control.

Imagine if a kid got crushed to death in an Amazon warehouse, where he *lived on-site* with other immigrant workers and their families.

Huge news story, right?

That’s what happened in Wisconsin, but it was on a dairy farm, so almost no one covered it.

RIP Jefferson Rodriguez

if you’re unsure why the Reddit Blackout protest is important, with major subreddits going private, i wrote this last week

these moves from tech companies to charge exorbitant fees to indie developers for API access threaten the internet as we know it

In Louisiana, black women were put in cells with male prisoners and some became pregnant.

All children born in the penitentiary to blacks were property of the state.

At 10 years, they would be auctioned off. The proceeds were used to fund schools for white children.

I’m shocked Gina Rodriguez didn’t get the heebie jeebies

Never ever ask Black ppl why we’re adamant about being called Black instead of being lumped in with all non white ppl… This is how “people of color” treat Black folks.

@Kyla_Lacey They love our culture but not us. I’ve never supported K-pop and never will. A lot of it is modern day minstrelsy.

Casey DeSantis Florida's First Lady makes a racist fashion statement. Black babies as alligator bait was a theme in racist Florida humor of the early 1900s. It's an inside joke. If you are not from Florida, you may not get it. She does. Do you?

Religion is a mental illness at this point.

[Very Damir @ShepardHeff]

I completely understand why so many Black women prefer working remotely. They deal with more passive micro aggressions than anyone else in professional settings.

[Jemele Hill @jemelehill]

If a Black woman shot and killed a white mother of four in front of the white woman’s 9 year old child, who allegedly had been called racial slurs by the Black woman, would an arrest still not have been made?

Also: According to the latest statistics, in Stand Your Ground states, when a white person kills a Black person, they are 354 percent more likely to have their killings deemed justified.

On this day in 1894, inventor G.W. Murray received his patent for the 'Planter', which helped make farm work more efficient.

The planter was designed to drop crop seeds at predetermined distances apart and covering the seeds after dropping.

@CornelWest 🙄 You have praised the worst of the worst (Trump and DeSantis) and called others "Sellouts". You'll not get my vote.

[silverprincess💛 @marsha_vivinate]

Say her name. Her name is AJ Owens. A mother of 4 shot and killed by a white woman. A mom doing what a normal mom would do if you took her children's IPad. She went to confront her neighbor, who has not been arrested for murder.

Before anyone starts talking about wanting D3 again I want them to delete their Bungie account, make a new one, re-buy all DLCs, re-grind all their gear, and then tell me they want a Destiny 3, because that's what's gonna happen if D3 happens.

Shut the FUCK up about D3.
