I had been denied Shitty Men in Media Access based on personal beef meaning they would leave me to known rapists because “everyone important knows” And no matter what anyone says it’s almost always along class/race/gender lines Which abusers tend to target

Judging folks for not knowing the thing "everyone knew" in your whisper network is a great way to tell the people whose safety you don't care about that you also feel morally superior to them.

My bad y’all not from Dallas so this is in reference to the David W. Carter High School Cowboys which are rivals to my Justin F. Kimball Knights not the Cowboy Carter album Beyoncé put out. I’m not a fan of the Carter Cowboys.

I cannot emphasize enough how good Sprint on Netflix is. From pure personalities, it's better than Drive to Survive. At one point, Sha'Carri beats Shericka Jackson on Shericka's birthday and then walks by and wishes her a happy birthday. Diabolical 😭

Whoever is the Democratic nominee, I hope that people are aware that there are going to be MAJOR protests at the Dem Convention in Chicago. People are going to be protesting US ongoing support of genocide and much more. I hope this doesn't lead to more social media freaking out.

Small things people don't know about DC because of how ignorant everybody else is on it. @chadstanton.bsky.social

For DC's whole history, we've been living as its Black population that the federal government intentionally antagonizes. We hate them because that's their relation to us. We're fighting for autonomous rule for them. We love living in our community in the belly of the beast of America though.

Not so easy building a multiracial democracy. Good thing Germany doesn't have a horrific recent history that this story would make even more alarming.

“The Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges, which was working with the U.S. on its sting operation, also listed the university as legitimate.” Abolish ICE. But also, abolish this commission.

“ICE started its undercover operation in 2015, creating a fake office on Northwestern Highway near 13 Mile with a website & an admissions process like a regular university. The University of Farmington was even listed on the website of ICE as a school approved by the U.S. government for students.”

Students at fake university in Michigan created by ICE can sue US, court ruleswww.freep.com An appeals court ruled in favor of students who said they were tricked by ICE into enrolling at a fake university in metro Detroit.
