Last night a random man gave me his pasta because I wouldn't stop talking about how hungry I was. I am a meme of myself

Every US news network is running the funeral of the Queen of England, after 10 days of nonstop coverage of her, meanwhile this is the US colony of Puerto Rico

As I stroll on TikTok, I keep seeing parents video their children reacting to The Little Mermaid trailer. So instead of focusing so much on the negative, I thought I’d show a thread of the little black kids who are excited to see their favorite princess look like them.

O to be a concealed weapon rather than a woman in America.

There’s been an increase in drink manipulation and roofies in Boston. If you’re out on the town drinking, here are some places people have reported experiences being roofied! BE CAREFUL!

The Johnny Depp-Amber Heard trial stayed in the news cycle longer than ten Black people massacred in a supermarket.

If cops shoot unarmed people because they fear for their life, but also don’t stop armed shooters because they fear for their life, why are we giving them millions of dollars??

The average rent in the US hit a new record high of $1,827 last month. On the federal minimum wage of $7.25 people take home $1256 a month. People aren't exaggerating when they say it's becoming unlivable here.

More white women have spoken out about being traumatized by Will Smith slapping someone than yesterday’s mass murder of innocent Black grocery shoppers.

Love hearing about ‘the sanctity of life’ from the same people who have spent the last two years arguing that killing grandma is a small price to pay for being able to sit in an Applebee’s.

If you don't want anyone protesting outside your house, simply do not spend your entire life accumulating political power in order to take fundamental rights away from millions of people

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

News flash: If you outlaw abortions, ban mask mandates, dictate what educators can teach in schools, and stop people from voting, you're not the party of "limited government."

“the constitution does not reference the right to an abortion” the constitution does not reference women

Let's be clear, wealthy women will always have access to whatever doctors, medicines and procedures that they want. Ending Roe is an attack on the autonomy of poor and working class women.

[julia hava @binchcity]

The Supreme Court overturning Roe V. Wade while the whole country is distracted by an inconsequential event celebrating extreme wealth is, unfortunately, the most symbolic representation of America rn

elon financed his Twitter bid for 43bn (he hasn't officially bought it yet) with a loan leveraged against tesla stock.

tesla dropped 11 percent today. 110bn market value lost.

if it loses 40 percent he has to repay his loan.

it would be funny except- no. wait. it is.

A reminder that a man with enough money to end homelessness in America decided to buy a 9% stake in Twitter instead.

[Rebecca Carroll @rebel19]

The way that a Black woman in America can be as highly, hyper educated, intelligent, elegant, skilled, experienced and qualified as KBJ and still be treated like this by white men on national television. It's not even symbolic. It's a glaring body of evidence.
