I want to support good journalists and good writers but there is simply no way to subscribe to every article or newspaper or magazine or newsletter, and it sucks for everyone because writers want readers for their stuff and readers want to read, but normal people can’t afford to.

Because if they do DNA tests there's going to be a whole bunch of men with families who'll have to explain why there's babies being born to teenagers in for-profit concentration camps, and why the government is trafficking the girls to anti-abortion states and islands.

The girls in the ICE detention centers are pregnant. They weren’t pregnant when they went in. We need DNA samples of every single ICE agent to match who is raping these girls. Why is this not happening?

I need people to understand that about 60% of homeless people are employed but just don’t make enough to afford housing and that’s the real issue

Every single death within ICE custody must be understood by the public as murder.

ICE detained a dialysis patient the morning of her treatment. She died 36 hours later in a detention infirmary. They logged it as "natural causes." When policy kills, call it what it is.

It's an anti-masker tactic to claim that if you don't wear a mask 100% of the time, it isn't worth it. Untrue. Every single time you wear a mask, you reduce the chances for viruses to spread. Wearing a mask always improves public health, even if you only do it occasionally.
Vivian@suchnerve
“I don’t want to wear a mask all the time” Alright. Would you please wear it sometimes? Sometimes > never. Like just keep one in your bag, and put it on when you’re in an extra crowded place maybe?

Happy Birthday to Janet Collins, she was among the pioneers of black ballet dancing, one of the few classically trained Black dancers of her generation.
When she performed in Aida, Carmen, she would be the first Black ballerina to perform at the Metropolitan Opera. 🩰

I saw the news about them dismantling the FDIC and immediately just started hyperventilating and sobbing. Ive worked hard all my life to crawl back from homelessness & poverty. To pay off my student loans. To save. Be responsible.
They’re gonna steal our money. They’re anticipating a bank run.

“When the missionaries came to Africa they had the Bible and we had the land. They said "Let us pray." We closed our eyes. When we opened them we had the Bible and they had the land.” - Desmond Tutu

Why is it that African mythology is viewed as witchcraft but Greek mythology isn't? 🤔

Same way we call white people living abroad in the Global South “expats” and non-whites abroad in the Global North “immigrants.”

Why do people say America has “allies” and Iran has “proxies”?

A woman with Long Covid won almost one million dollars in a lawsuit against her employer who refused to allow her work from home accommodations.
May this set a precedent.
Remote work should be accessible to all who need it.
It’s a game changer for people with disabilities.

In no world where billionaires exist should a scientist have to ask the general public to crowdfund the potential breakthrough cure for pancreatic cancer. And that’s why billionaires should not exist.

I mean Jeff Bezos didn’t buy the Washington Post to turn a profit. He did it to dismantle one of the country’s strongest journalistic institutions’ ability to report on the wealthy and powerful. Any future profitability was always at best a distant secondary concern.
Sam Stein@samstein
It is totally dumbfounding that Bezos and co. managed to botch up a news company in THIS news climate.

I don't think people realize how young Medgar, Malcolm, and Martin were. Not one of them saw 40.
