He/Him. Free Palestine. Fuck Trump. Fuck the DNC. Be kind to those who deserve kindness. Send ICE to the Shadow Realm.

A gracious concession: “I want to congratulate Abdul El-Sayed on winning the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate. He is a doctor, a community health official, a Rhodes Scholar, and a dedicated Michigander. I am proud to offer my support as he takes on Mike Rogers in the general election…

Friendly reminder to all you folks out there: Black folks need food, clean water, healthcare, good paying jobs, are members of the lgbtq community and practice religions other than Christianity. So take anyone who says "progressives don't speak to black people's issues" with a grain of salt.

Me: look at this cool book mug I bought for my wife. Friend: Oh that's so cool you should go over there and show it to Mychal. Me: Mychal? Friend: *nonchalantly points over to Mychal Threets just hanging out* Me: 🤯

Me holding a mug that says "I like Big books and I cannot Lie" next to the amazing human being that is Mychal Threets.

Still funny to me that certain people have been calling the MCU shit for the past 5 years, haven’t really kept up with the recent stuff, and are now surprised that they are consolidating now. It can’t be about “quality” because so many people tolerated the inconsistency of Phases 1 & 2.

False. Food deserts exist because store owners don't open stores there. When they did, they were closed because people found cheaper food elsewhere, usually because big box stores priced them out. It's always about affordability. No one is traveling miles for food for fun.

A grocery store doesn't exist there because people wouldn't buy enough food from it to keep it in business. The people in the area don't have some combination of the time, energy, conscientiousness, tools, or skills to make home cooked meals, so they don't have much use for a grocery.

3 men in a black suv pulled a woman over in rural a oregon. Had all the tactical gear face masks bp vests with police badges etc. Screamed at her to get out of the car. forced her into the back and raped her for 20 minutes. no connection to ICE or LE. Yet we are told to just comply amazon or ice?

its really ramped up in the last week with a lot of influencers parroting the same “she’s growing on me!” language, its been very blatant but probably impacting the election for those less tuned in

A dark money campaign is offering influencers $1,500 per post to attack Abdul El-Sayed and support Haley Stevens. Same exact dollar figure that was paid to attack @katmabu.bsky.social (Nobody ever found out who was paying for that campaign.) Gross, lazy and above all cynical shit.

A quick word on Taco Bell: That's where we found the suspected lettuce, and it's not bc Taco Bell is gross. It's bc Taco Bell is REALLY GOOD at tracing product! Keeping track of exactly where they got their ingredients, & exactly what restaurants each shipment of ingredients went to!

NEW: Aurora Police say an ICE detention center employee shot a protester last night. She is expected to survive. 42-year-old Brandon Booth, who works for the ICE contractor GEO Group, is being held on suspicion of attempted second degree murder and other charges.

Xfinity is using Moon over Gotham, one of my favorite songs by my favorite jazz pianist Keiko Matsui as hold music. This by all rights should make this a better experience but im actually infuriated that her music is being used by this soul-less fuck nugget of a company

Oyer: "2 days after Blanche was confirmed as deputy AG, he fired me from my position as DOJ's career pardon attorney. I declined to rubber stamp a favor for a friend of the president, and it cost me my job. Mr Blanche's office had asked me to restore the gun rights of a convicted domestic abuser..."
