@baxterh7 Vicious cycle of prejudice, in a nutshell. One person does hateful thing, gets identified — others do that thing in different context, no hate, get hated, have to fight new prejudice. Round and round — and perpetuated by people who think prejudice has already been conquered. 💙
On the first day of Pride month, we’re remembering Marsha P Johnson, the tireless activist who participated in the 1969 Stonewall riots against police.
She fought throughout her life for trans rights and for the rights of people of colour within the LGBT+ movement before her passing in 1992. Her body was pulled from the Hudson River, and her death was initially ruled to be by s*icide, but authorities later claimed it was a “drowning from undetermined causes”.
On the subject of history, Johnson famously said: “History isn’t something you look back at and say it was inevitable. It happens because people make decisions that are sometimes very impulsive and of the moment, but those moments are cumulative realities.”

When you make money off the click and not the sale, so your ad isn’t to educate someone about your product, but to trick them into tapping on your ad — so the fact you pissed them off and they never learn about or buy from you doesn’t bother you. That’s not an ad, it’s a con.
@atlasvekalem@dunyasalbilim Remember air flows like water. The board is stirring the air, tilted, it is pushing air up as the man moves it forward. It’s not much, but the paper only gently falls, so it is enough to halt the paper’s descent.
@CliffW08950229 The way this regime works, I fully expect that a statement like this, from him, is the bait before the switch. Do I know how? No. But Republicans losing the midterms won’t be the happiness for anyone else that this quote sets it up to be.
@BakaAda98 Using Twitter more often is going to revive my “proofread before posting” mentality, seeing as I just learned I can’t edit. “Mashes” should be “makes”. Swiping the touchscreen for words is nice, but I still prefer just typing 😆😅💙
@BakaAda98 But they love each other, right? All of them? This is real love for all three of them? They should not lie to each other. Even in polyamory, lying is not good for the relationships 💙 Feeling guilty mashes sense. I hope their love leads to forgiveness and understanding 💙💙
The sad irony of The Punisher including a mental health tag. In a part of the credits that society generally knows won’t be seen. In fact, the app is designed to force you away from the credits earlier than that.
@horpeyemie05 I think the biggest problem either of those couples will have is other people judging them. Individual results always vary — nothing to do with age.
@woofknight With Donald Trump’s behavior, lately … maybe this isn’t exactly the best continent to be promoting. We got a whole lotta rebuilding to do. Thanks, Nero.
