If you don’t watch cycling I want to share the joy of Eritrean Biniam Girmay, who is the first Black person to win a stage in the Tour de France and now won his second! In the first week! And he’s in green, which means he’s winning the most sprints (and beating Jasper Phillipsen, which is great.)

This was my favorite day, when we shut down the street with Mexica dancers to bless the altar.

We stayed out there all night and got up the next day and organized some artist friends to paint this mural the next day. This became a space for mourning and anger, we built an altar for people murdered by police, and held events there. It changed how I think about what protest can be.

My husband asked me to make him a Fourth of July cake, which was pretty anti-Indigenous if you ask me.

I normally don’t critique someone’s appearance, but the author of that piece is one scurvy ass looking mother fucker Like, fine, don’t vote, maybe eat some citrus fruits and wash your hair

I just realized that after two years of waiting, my #KidLit book comes out NEXT MONTH. This Land is my answer to "This Land Is Our Land," a way for you to talk to kids you love about land theft and the displacement of Indigenous people from the lands we've called home since time immemorial.

This is why I bought this jacket.
Seeing more liberal & leftist political pundits than ever, out here laying blame all over the goddamned place for where we find ourselves in this moment. If people are looking to place blame & go back far enough along the US political crumb trail, it ALWAYS leads to Ronald Reagan

We're already here, Chet? Really?

Good morning, Waffles says they don’t pay you enough to care that much.

Waffles wants to remind you that your value isn’t rooted in your productivity and that rest is inherently political.

Looking at outfits for the future wedding of two Desi friends and I think I might buy like…12. I feel like I need to make up for a lifetime of not wearing color.

Also I might have to buy some of these for ceremony. Looking like the world’s coolest ribbon skirt.

They’re calling this a bi pride sticker but it makes me wish I was heterosexual.
