lol @ the state trooper who just pulled me over downtown and tried to tell me he could issue me a citation because he saw me give an unhoused man $3 at a red light. I asked what law I'd violated
"uhh well I'm just giving a warning this time"
yeah that's what I figured.
Companies replacing junior roles with AI, only to complain about the lack of senior talent in 4-5 years, is going to be the most predictable crisis in hiring history.
🕊️ Before Zionism, this is how Jerusalem actually was.
A Christian grandmother born in the city explains how Muslims, Jews, and Christians lived together as equals no second-class citizens, no checkpoints, no occupation.
Then 1948 came.
Zionist forces attacked Arab residential areas.
Her family was forced out.
Like ~98% of the Christian residents of West Jerusalem.
She ends with the line that hits hardest:
“Our homeland is gone…”
This is the history they work overtime to erase.
Watch every second.
Then ask yourself why this testimony is buried while the opposite narrative is amplified everywhere.
SZA denounces AI music after discovering 238 of her songs were used to train artificial intelligence:
“If you’re a musician and you support this degenerate sh*t? You’re disgusting and there’s NOTHING YOU COULD EVER SAY TO ME TO MAKE THIS OKAY”
Cuba is having its Deng moment. From the floor of the National Assembly:
"Socialism is not egalitarian poverty. It is the intelligent management of wealth to eliminate poverty.
Socialism is not the absence of a market. It is a market subordinated to socialist planning and the collective interest."
Ending to this arc was actually insane man lol imagine getting a video from yourself telling you not to do what you’re about to do or else you will ceased to exist
🕊️🌹♥️ Due to today being Juneteenth, I wanted to make a post about Eric Mays, a councilman, a hood humanitarian, and a soul that brought (and still brings) many smiles and laughs to people's faces today. When I think of Eric Mays, I think of Black History.
To many people, Eric Mays was someone who was hilarious, unapologetic, and stood on business no matter who was in front of him. To me, as somebody who spent a lot of time researching him, I learned that there was much more to the man than the viral clips. Beneath the jokes, arguments, and headlines was someone who genuinely cared about people.
He was known for standing out in the cold and snow to help the homeless, spoke openly about his love for the Bible, and carried with him the influence of his father, who was a pastor. He never seemed afraid to speak up for Black people, challenge racism, or defend what he believed was right, even when it made him unpopular. Like all human beings, he was flawed and misunderstood at times, but his passion for his community was undeniable.
As a proud son of Flint, he represented the city with heart, conviction, and authenticity. His impact reached far beyond city council meetings and internet memes. In his own way, he became a hero to many.
Forever missed. I pray he ascended peacefully and found rest. 🕊️🌹♥️
lmao actually one of the best relatable examples of walter rodney's theory of how the west siphons resources from periphery states to maintain their systemic positioning as 'better' than
