@YamunaMoon @evenstvr How has this not been added already?

@evenstvr Like every single male character from LOST on any given episode.

what’s a male acting performance where he’s having the worst day of his life but looks so hot doing it

.@GovEvers tells @AP he won't appoint district attorneys who would enforce abortion ban and he would use clemency powers to vacate prison sentences of anyone convicted under the law Evers also says he hopes @WisDOJ files a lawsuit to at least put the ban on hold

Early reports state that Daunte Wright, MN motorist killed by police, was pulled over for his dangling air freshener. I've been covering this odd genre of traffic stop, which has exploded in prevalence & is derided as a pretext stop, for years: chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-20…

Hey @NYTOpinion you missed one: Raise Wages. “but we also need home visiting programs, high-quality preschool, lead reduction, addiction treatment...”. nytimes.com/2021/02/03/opi…

Racism is a real and visible and present-day system. It is not past history, theory, abstract, a subject to move on from.

@NPR Helpful context here would be the percentage of nonprofits “serving” communities of color, that are run by white people. For these officials, this would have literally LOOKED like business-as-usual.

A 22-year-old with no health care background boasted that his Philadelphia start-up could vaccinate between 500,000 and 1.5 million people — and make a lot of money doing it. City officials gave them vaccines. Then things went wrong. trib.al/mriDr4L

@_RealShante @NPR And that thing where every white kid with a degree thinks they should just start a nonprofit to go help someone, rather than maybe go do data entry for whoever is already doing work in that community.

@NPR To have the confidence and arrogance of an inexperienced white man is knowing that you don’t have to know what you’re doing to receive large funding and put others lives at stake.

@allie_tech @mlanger @NPR Ding ding ding

@mlanger @NPR No. This is what happens when white guy audacity and privilege get’s out of a hand. A black woman could come to city officials with actual, research, actual expertise, traction AND a flashy powerpoint and still not get anywhere. And SAVE your “race card” bullshit pls.

@DrSprankle Or Tom Ellis would do, as well.

Replace all confederate statues and monuments with nude Lucifer.

Instacart workers are on the front lines of the pandemic. It’s clear they need a union and Instacart’s actions are outrageous and illegal.   I’m eager to take on bad actors like Instacart and Uber in Congress & with a reinvigorated @NLRB.   theverge.com/2021/1/21/2224…

Mark Leggiero is the one lone Trump supporter out in front of the NYS Capitol. He says he expected a few thousand ppl here and is disappointed. He said he drove 45 minutes for a peaceful protest

Amanda Gorman’s full poem on #InaugurationDay

@MadDanWrites Bearing witness. Silently. Whew, it’s a change.

Yolanda Adams. "Hallelujah." First and Second Couples bearing witness, silently, to a year of loss and a season of hope before the illuminated Reflecting Pool. youtu.be/iohM2wnouDo

people don't like the idea of servers, janitors, etc. making higher than a certain amount because then they wouldn't feel superior to them

@JohnnyDavi5 @pelfan23 @iBiteiStrike Came here to say this.

@pelfan23 @iBiteiStrike This is some classist nonsense. I got a B.S. and a M.S. in structural engineering and make decent money but "high school student" welders, pipe fitters, oil workers, plumbers, electricians... often make more than me. And they deserve it! They work harder and are as skilled.

Incredible thread, from Nov. 2020: Before y'all go running with the narrative that John Sullivan belongs to the Left, he doesn't. He was ID'd as an infiltrator and an opportunist way back then. He only believes in CHAOS. THREAD BELOW:👇

NPR EXCLUSIVE: FBI & DHS did *NOT* do a formal threat assessment before the US Capitol riot. They did one ahead of Portland protests after George Floyd murder & before BLM protests in June. Despite red flags on social media - they did no assessment before Trump rally.@NPRDina

@koury_jerry @mehdirhasan Sadly, it is, isn’t it?

@mehdirhasan does the yahoo think it’s less a crime to beat and pummel someone belonging to “antifa” than a police officer…how stupid are these terrorists?

🤦🏽‍♂️😡
