Hi family and friends. After being hospitalized for sepsis and osteomyelitis in my spine in December 2025, recovery has been long and difficult, and the financial burdens are becoming overwhelming. I am asking for help to make my recovery successful. gofundme.com/f/help-nilo-re…

WE ARE UNDER-REACTING‼️ If you needed any more proof that the Voting Rights Act is still necessary, just look at what’s happening right now: red states rushing to wipe out Black representation the second SCOTUS gutted it. What went down this week is going to have devastating consequences. Here’s the uncomfortable truth: a lot of white Americans are not having the conversations they need to be having with each other. In Black communities, these conversations are constant. They are not optional. They are passed down. They’re how we survive. If you want to help, start by listening to Black voices on this issue and amplifying them. And especially if you’re white, use your voice too. Join us. Call it what it is: racism. 🧵

Actually, different salaries should only affect how luxurious your life is, not your food quality or ability to afford rent. If you work 40 hours at any job, your income should be enough to live in the town you work in. Thinking otherwise is an abysmal indicator of your humanity.

A Kansas City woman was denied medical care while suffering back-to-back seizures after her husband filed a complaint against Overland Park Regional Hospital One week agoa man named Quae filed a complaint on behalf of his wife, Nisha, at the hospital due to her experiencing seizures. Hours after her discharge, she was found blocks away in a puddle of water on the side of the road, having another seizure. A Good Samaritan discovered her and provided assistance until emergency medical services arrived. Hours later, Quae learned about the incident and reported the hospital. Later that day, his wife had another seizure and was discharged after they discovered that the husband had filed a report against the hospital. Hospital staff called security on the husband after he confronted them for refusing to care for her while she was having seizures. Security personnel escorted the husband and his wife from the room while having seizures. That is when the husband contacted the Overland Park Police Department. Upon their arrival, they witnessed the incident as Quae was providing aid to his wife. Police informed them that they had to take action, prompting the emergency room staff to intervene.

🚨META’S SMART GLASSES ARE RECORDING YOU IN YOUR MOST INTIMATE MOMENTS.. AND SENDING ALL OF IT TO WORKERS IN KENYA WHO WATCH EVERY SECOND.. THEN META FIRED 1,108 OF THEM FOR TALKING ABOUT IT.. Swedish journalists discovered that footage from Meta’s Ray-Ban smart glasses is being sent to a facility in Nairobi, Kenya.. Where workers manually watch and label everything the glasses capture.. Not AI watching.. Humans watching.. Over 30 workers confirmed what they see every day.. People in intimate situations.. People on the toilet.. People undressing.. Credit card numbers.. Banking passwords.. Private messages on phone screens.. All completely visible.. One worker said.. “I don’t think they know, because if they knew they wouldn’t be recording”.. Meta marketed these glasses as “built for your privacy”.. “You’re in control of your data and content”.. The AI features cannot function without sending your footage to Meta’s servers.. There is no local option.. If you use the AI.. Your private life leaves your device.. Swedish journalists visited 10 retail stores.. Every single sales rep incorrectly told customers all data stays on the phone.. Not one knew the footage goes to Kenya.. Meta claims face-blurring protects identities.. Workers say it barely works.. Faces fully visible in low light, fast movement, complex backgrounds.. People in your bedroom.. Fully visible.. To strangers making $1.50 an hour.. Workers said the facility was “saturated with content that could trigger enormous scandals if leaked”.. So the company put them under constant camera surveillance and banned personal devices.. Workers surveilled to prevent them from leaking the surveillance footage they were watching.. Then the investigation went public.. Meta terminated the entire contract.. Claimed Sama “didn’t meet our standards”.. Sama fired back.. “At no point were we notified of any failure to meet those standards”.. 1,108 Kenyan workers.. Fired.. Six days notice.. Labor activists called it retaliation.. “The workers who trained the AI saw everything.. Owned nothing.. And lost their jobs the moment they spoke about it”.. 55% of these workers report clinical distress.. 52% meet thresholds for major depression.. They earn $1.50 an hour.. Meta made $56.3 billion last quarter.. The head of the Data Labelers Association said it best.. “It is African Intelligence powering European intelligence.. Which they are now calling Artificial Intelligence”.. Meta has sold 7 million of these glasses.. Targeting 10 million by year end.. A class-action lawsuit has been filed.. Kenya’s courts ruled Meta can be sued directly.. 200 former workers are pursuing a $1.6 billion claim.. 7 million cameras on 7 million faces.. Sending everything to the cheapest labor market they can find.. And they called it “built for your privacy.”

They have done this to Black ppl since the inception of this country. There were thousand of Blacks elected to office in the past, only to be intimidated to leave, office removed, or even killed. A Black person plays by the rules and wins, and white ppl change the rules.
