garlic is to cooking as vanilla extract is to baking in that the amount i add to my food is guided by reckless extravagance and utter disregard, verging on mild contempt, for the recipe as written

I wish she could get all the big media response that all the other dem senate hopefuls are getting, like I know iowa might be more of a "long shot" than georgia or maine but you know what makes it less of a long shot? Lotsa media attention. Or enough media that I learned her name

Okay was anyone going to tell me that there's a super cool Native woman (@electpaulette ) running to flip Iowa's senate seat or was I just supposed to find that out from looking it up on wikipedia

I see a lot of calls to replace police with mental health professionals in responding to crisis calls. In order for that to happen, we must be prepared to address the systemic racism (and ableism) in that sector too.

This is how I, a 45-year-old white woman and mother of 6, currently at her peak Karen power, went from assuming police work was a necessary part of functional communities, to becoming a passionate advocate for #abolishthepolice #defundthepolice, over the course of one week.

Holy shit Puerto Rico just brought a guillotine to the Governor’s mansion for their #BlackLivesMatter protest.

Don’t just read Black literature in this moment. Read Black lit for the rest of your life. Read and support the work of Black essayists, novelists, poets, today and forever and always. Do NOT make your support conditional on whether or not racism is in the headlines

To end unrest, we must end the conditions that caused it.

Really hope it's clear to people by now that a main tactic of the police is to show up to peaceful protests with riot gear and then tear gas everyone the moment a water bottle hits the sky so that they can spend the rest of the night abusing random citizens.

Scott Morrison telling Australians not to ‘import’ a movement from the US proves how tone deaf he is. Our country is built on genocide and violence, just like the US. You can’t import something when it’s been here the whole time

We deserve an explanation from @marty_walsh and Police Commissioner Gross on why BPD - usually so well involved, well behaved, and respected - decided to block off MBTA entrances for peaceful protestors. What was the reason, Mayor Walsh? Boston was entirely peaceful until
