The LIGHTS?!?!? IN THE DRESS?!?!
The only good part of this nonsense conversation is I’m learning I could really up my whimsy for real. The genius outfits, accessories, and activities I’ve seen women post of themselves these last few days *CHEF’S KISS*

you can wear pink and a tiara even at your wedding and it’s pretty ✨

@rachallison1 “It’s up to women to restrict our access to sex” Not according to the Jesus he just tried to weaponize against women. In fact Jesus said the opposite. Until I start to see some gouged eyes, I’m not taking any pseudo-Christianity men can’t control themselves bs

Match Day is a milestone.
If you want to argue about residency workforce policy, fine.
But using celebratory photos of newly matched residents to make derogatory political points is unprofessional.
These are individual trainees, not political props.

OK I'll bite: what's so wrong with having foreign medical students???? What if their application and interview are so fucking good they are better than the rest of the applicants???? We want the best, why is it hard to believe that THEY are the best for that program??????????
Mary Talley Bowden MD@MaryBowdenMD
Over 1500 medical students applied for anesthesiology residency at Harvard. 5 of the 18 coveted spots (28%) were filled by foreign medical students.

@ajzeigler When I volunteer read with K-2nd kids where English isn’t their first lamguage I make sure they can see me point to each word as I say it for this reason. I get they can’t read it themselves yet but at least they’re associating sounds to letters
English
I tire of this debate, but as a teacher: It matters for young people. They need to see the words, the construction of sentences. Most of my students who cannot spell tell me they always listen to audio if they "read" at all.
Shane Donovan@SDDonovan
Hot take! Audiobooks do NOT count as "reading" the same way picking up a book does.

I do not fuck with this at all. Some of the most morally corrupt people on this planet are the ones who haven't missed a meal. This is some fascist bitch shit to say. Not gonna hold you.

Nobody talks about this enough: being broke makes you a worse person. more jealous. more reactive. more desperate. Poverty doesn't just shrink your wallet, it shrinks your character.

@DebbieWongTong @YallQunt Sorry if you missed the memo about my people’s sense of justice and standing up for what is right. That’s a core part of being African American that a fake account on the internet like you wouldn’t understand 🤷🏾♀️

Sweetie we’re downing EVERYONE working for ICE…we’re just downing black women and men more because we’re holding our people accountable for their c00nery….
Rose TheArtist@rosethaaartist
Y’all downing black women and black men working for ICE is pissing me off.
English
@DebbieWongTong @YallQunt But if these groups are really as hateful as you say, how could we hold them accountable? They won’t listen to us. All we can do is say our side. Only their own can truly hold accountable
English
@DebbieWongTong @YallQunt What’s the same level of accountability? Surely it’s not joining militarized units and terrorizing them in response?
But if it’s just talking, search the internet. African Americans stay talking about international anti-blackness, Latine anti-blackness, immigrant anti-blackness

The material benefit is that you can release a falsely accused person and try to make amends but you cannot bring a falsely killed person back to life.
Diane Yap@RealDianeYap
When considering life in prison vs execution, the question is "What material benefit is there to society in keeping this person alive, and does that outweigh the cost of keeping them in prison?" If we can't justify a taxpayer burden of ~$60k/year, execution is the answer.

irish never experienced the same amount of mistreatment and dehumanization black people went through but the "irish weren't considered white" is still an important part of the story as remmick litteraly changed his accent & language once he realized bert and joan were kkk members

you guys gotta let this "irish people weren't considered white" thing go, it is leading u into saying too much silly nonsense

@__Sherisse__ I can’t prove it but it feels connected to the Pearl clutching we say when Will Smith slapped Chris Rock. Except now it’s actually black people getting offended. Still the majority black opinion seems to be “it is what it is, why y’all tripping”

@kennardmatt And also I’ve met plenty of Muslims who believe Jesus is the Son of God/God in human form. Sure they still maintain other religious beliefs that divide from Christianity but even the blunt Jesus as divine or not line is inaccurate for splitting the two religions
English
The mad thing is Judaism, Christianity and Islam are effectively different denominations of the same religion
They all believe Abraham (Ibrahim for Muslims) was first to make convenant with God. Jews believe the convenant passed through his son Isaac and then Jacob. Christians agree. Muslims believe the convenant line passed through his other son Ishmael (Ismail)
Christians believe Jesus Christ was the promised Messiah - and part of God (Holy Trinity). Muslims believe Jesus was a prophet but not divine. Jews don’t recognise him as either
(I’m an atheist, so don’t believe any of it)

Muslims do not believe that Jesus is God. It’s that simple. Don’t overcomplicate it.

Sikhs in the USA have found themselves the victims of hate crimes and discrimination because they were thought to be Muslim by bigots.
Even then, many of them refused to say "I'm NOT a Muslim.": "It's just not an option for us to throw another community under the bus."

@AAAHHHbby Honestly I can’t get behind people who rage this much at games either. You button mash too hard and wear down your controller? Ok. You jump up too fast and knock over something? Happens to the best of us. You punch your screen and throw it to the ground and start stomping it?🚩🙅♀️

@RachaelEWrites And you’re being nice just pointing at the government. It’s sad to say but a lot of people are brainwashed by generations of racism into believing preventing certain people from having benefits is worth losing access to those same benefits themselves
English
Folks asking why don't we have this in the USA. RACISM YOU IDIOTS. IT'S FUCKING RACISM. can't have Black and Brown kids eating free/healthy, cuz our government want them so desperate & hungry that they turn to drugs and crimes, so they can then be put into the prison systems.
