Black autistic Entreprenerd from Los Angeles; I run @soulfulstitchery.blacksky.app I don't follow back, but I follow Black https://soulfulstitchery.etsy.com https://medium.com/@mskjfrom1984 https://thesassysavant.wordpress.com #Blacksky #AddToBlacksky

Getting angry at stupid people also reminds me of the terrible education in the US. But I don't blame anyone for lack of education. I get angry about entitlement. These people are proud of being stupid, they feel entitled to be as stupid as they want. No one should have to put with that.

NYT + other Legacy news outlets here and in the UK are Complicit in driving this Tragedy: In the same manner that #ClaudineGay was pushed from her Leadership role @harvard.edu by WR AntiBlack Racists—then ENABLED by the Press—so too was vulnerable Prof Arday sunk 🤦🏽‍♀️🙏🏾 www.nytimes.com/2026/08/14/w...

Jason Arday, Cambridge Professor Accused of Plagiarism, Is Found Dead

Mr. Arday resigned last week after the university announced an investigation into allegations of plagiarism and fabrication.

Sickening: “A public firestorm over Mr. Arday’s career erupted after a blog post accused him of plagiarism …and embellishing his personal story. It was written by a scholar known for work suggesting that Black people were genetically predisposed to be less intelligent than white people.” 🤦🏽‍♀️🥺👇🏾

What your phone, updates, can do now was created years ago. If they give you everything that is possible when it's possible, how will they get you to keep spending? Corporations are like the GOP. They play the long game. Sadly, we play along. Ethics has no place in business. They teach us that too.

It always made me sad as a child to watch my dad and my grandparents work endlessly without doing anything for themselves. I always wondered what where they running from because they were never at home. It left for a very lonely childhood. I am breaking that cycle 🥹

It’s hilarious that folks who agree with Afropessimism are also the ones who care about community the most, fulfill mutual aid requests, and who organize for others’ needs. Meanwhile the Marxists are walking around trying to “collab” with non-Blacks who eventually turn out to be racists.

No I'm not telling whiteys what woke means to Black people because the whole reason we're in this disastrous catastrophe of the appropriation of the word woke to mean any old thing is because white people got into Black culture & stole woke & thought they'd try to figure out what it means.

Didn’t know I did know I got it stuck on me by extreme rightwing folks. Don’t know where it came from Do you have more background 🙏

As far as woke 1 & woke 2, that is all utter bullshit because woke is Black people's word from our community that they stole & appropriated to do all kinds of outlandish things with, & neither woke 1 nor woke 2 have anything to do with what woke has always meant & continues to mean to Black folks.

I'm going to keep saying this until it's rote practice: If you are in official connection with let alone in charge of an archive of data, if is your professional & moral responsibility to secure that archive, as a backup or otherwise, against just such an emergency, so we're not Hoping some kid did.

Incredible. When E—n M—k & his crew obliterated USAID in a weekend, they deleted a vast trove of publicly-funded knowledge: the Development Experience Clearinghouse. A Canadian high school student (!) happened to have downloaded the entire thing for a project. AidData has now posted it for all.

For those not in Los Angeles, the Green Line to us locals (C Line according to Metro) gets ratchet between Crenshaw and Lynwood Stations. Got on at Willowbrook and this girl with her momma and babies had my anxiety on high. Older one was running wild while little one was playing with the intercom

Maybe I should've gone to Food4Less here on the westside (Messed around and went to the Eastside). I'm hot, tired and overstimulated from riding this damn Green Line just for some groceries 😩🤦🏾‍♀️
