This TikTok is concise but useful. “If you’re about to be hanged and you start cracking jokes, that’s gallows humor. But if you’re in the audience and you start cracking jokes, you’re just a part of the execution.”

Two different shooters have been able to get within 500 yards of a former president and current presidential nominee within the span of a few months. The secret service is clearly just as incompetent as these so-called assassins. I’m VERY scared for the black woman running for president.

I don’t think Rich Lowry saying the n-word is traumatic, to be clear. That word in his mealy, chapped mouth doesn’t wound me. It alerts and orients me. If I had any doubts about where we were, he vocalized a X on the map for “here be white dragons.”

It can’t be said enough: Cassandra Ventura was incredibly brave to come forward and file her lawsuit. She sought to redress personal harms specifically but ALSO, it’s very clear that exposing Combs will ultimately help many, many people who were also ensnared in his operation.

“why some people be mad at me sometimes” by Lucille Clifton they ask me to remember but they want me to remember their memories and i keep on remembering mine.

“Thousands of Ethiopian women are said to be receiving shots of Depo-Provera every three months in Israeli clinics. The contraceptive stops menstruation and has been linked to fertility problems and osteoporosis.” Again, an anti-black practice with a LONG history in the United States.
