“In race talk the move into mainstream America always means buying into the notion of American Blacks as the real aliens. Whatever the ethnicity or nationality of the immigrant, his nemesis is understood to be African American.” - Toni Morrison (On the Backs of Blacks)

This wound up on my Facebook feed. Mind you I hadn't discussed these murdered Black Women, but.....what a story!!! facebook.com/share/v/1Fuy5F…

She makes terrible choices. Full stop.

Black Panther, despite the valid criticisms towards it, had a dark skinned cast. It did not fail. The sequel didn’t fail even when a bunch of idiots whined about it being led by a woman. Iyanu didn’t fail. It’s doing great. Children of Blood and Bone deserves to be told as-

Never forget when the Democrats gifted the Post Civil War, Freedmen’s Bureau Bank to illegal aliens

the fact that she didn’t know that is actually insane i’m crying😭

More and more people are sharing either privately or online that they haven’t worked in months. I’m talking about real talented people with strong portfolios. It’s insane

The mother of missing 16 year old Aysia Banks: "I am gonna be full transparent and share everything surrounding the disappearance of my daughter , because CMPD is playing it like a runaway case and it’s being taking lightly. For those wanting answers … here are the answers. I know it’s a lot but I need you all to read and please share. I am speaking out to bring urgent attention to the disappearance of my daughter, Aysia, and to express my grave concern regarding the current handling of her case. CMPD is currently classifying this as a runaway; however, the circumstances surrounding her disappearance strongly suggest she is in danger and may have been groomed or manipulated. HERE ARE THE FACTs: • Last Seen: Tuesday night ( April 14th -early morning of April 15th) • I was working a night shift (7 p.m. – 7 a.m.). My 9-year-old son reported that Aysia left with a bag during the night. • When I arrived home, all of Aysia’s known electronics were left behind. Her phone enters automatic "Downtime" at 11 p.m., restricting her communication to parents only. Her other parent is currently out of the country. • Because she left her devices behind, I believe she was either using a secondary device I was unaware of to communicate with someone, or arrangements were made prior to 11 p.m. Aysia is 16 years old and has no history of running away or behavioral issues. She is a dedicated Honors Student and a member of the National Honors Society. She values her education and would never willingly miss school or abandon her younger brother in this manner. And none of her close friends has any answers or any clue about her disappearance. Between the hours of 1 a.m. and 5 a.m., a 16-year-old girl is extremely vulnerable. Whether she was lured away willingly or forced, she is a minor alone in the middle of the night. I believe she has been targeted and groomed. Something is wrong. My daughter is not a "troubled child” she is a child who is missing, and someone else is involved. I am asking for the community’s help and for law enforcement to treat this with the severity it deserves.

Put some magnets on the door? Go to YouTube to get the dents out?

When are we getting the Surviving Clive Davis doc? They gotta wait for him to pass b4 we get THAT level of scandal I reckon...

He probably cheated to get into Columbia University. Anyway....he's been rewarded now.

Dad's a misogynist, and raising two more.

A white doctor put a pair of scissors into the genitals of a black mother who had just given birth and intentionally cut an artificial 4th degree laceration, a birthing injury that tears the rectum and the vagina into a single hole, so that a white student doctor could practice.

NEW: Houston police officer Ashley Gonzalez relieved of duty after video shows her repeatedly using a racial slur A “close friend” on Instagram recorded former Houston Police Department officer Ashley Gonzalez repeatedly using racial slurs while describing black people. In the footage, she recounts using the same racial slur toward a person in custody during an arrest and later states she felt “at peace” after saying it. HPD has relieved Gonzalez of duty and is conducting an internal investigation into the matter.

Amazon just got caught running a secret price manipulation operation with Levi's, Home Depot, Walmart, and many more. Every time you "comparison shopped" online, you were looking at prices that were already rigged. Here's what happened: Amazon would monitor prices on Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Home Depot, and Chewy in real time. The second a competitor listed a product cheaper than Amazon, they'd contact the brand directly and tell them to "fix it." And the exact emails are now PUBLIC. Amazon sent Levi's links to two Walmart listings with the subject line "styles of concern." They basically said the prices on Walmart are too low and we have a problem. The next day, Levi's responded: "I talked to Walmart and they have partnered with us to take Easy Khaki Classic fit back up to ladder SPP price, $29.99 immediately." Levi's literally called Walmart and told them to raise the price. Because Amazon told Levi's to make the call. Walmart complied. Then Amazon matched the HIGHER price. Both retailers ended up charging more. The customer paid extra. Nobody competed. Same playbook with Hanes: Amazon sent them links showing Target and Walmart prices were lower. Hanes confirmed they "reached out to Target and Walmart to have the prices increased." Target increased the prices. Walmart increased the prices. Amazon kept their margins. But it gets even worse... Amazon told Allergan (the company that makes eye drops) that their product was "suppressed" on Amazon because it was cheaper on another site. Allergan responded: "Walmart got their price back up to $16.99." Amazon then unsuppressed the listing. They did this with pet treats on Chewy. Furniture on Home Depot. Products across dozens of categories spanning YEARS. The mechanism is simple but terrifying: If you're a brand and you sell cheaper on Walmart than on Amazon, Amazon suppresses your product, removes you from the Buy Box, buries you in search results, and effectively makes you invisible to 300 million customers. Brands can't afford that. So they call Walmart and Target and say "raise your prices or we'll lose our Amazon listings." Walmart and Target comply because they need the brand's products. Amazon captures 40 cents of every dollar spent online in America. That gives them the leverage to set prices across THE ENTIRE internet. Not just their own platform. So turns out, you were never comparison shopping. You were looking at a coordinated price floor set by Amazon through backroom phone calls between brands and their competitors. "Amazon is working to make your life more unaffordable." 3 separate antitrust trials are now scheduled for 2027. The FTC has its own case. 18 states plus the DOJ are piling on. This is literally happening during the WORST affordability crisis in a generation. Groceries up 25% since 2020. Housing unaffordable. Wages flat. And the largest ecommerce company on Earth has been secretly coordinating with brands to make sure you can't find a cheaper price ANYWHERE. "Competition" in retail is just a fantasy.

And now you know who's pocket she's in and can vote accordingly. Of course, that doesn't mean THOSE candidates aren't ALSO being controlled by the same.

I love this for her. It's something about owning the skin you are in with your indigenous inheritance . Your customs, dances,sounds, expressions, and bodies belong to you. Express them as often as you see fit.

Not enough people are talking about this. Hungary’s incoming PM has said that Viktor Orbán used Hungarian government funds to help finance CPAC, the flagship networking event for GOP candidates, members of Congress, and conservative media in this country. Under U.S. law, that is not just a Hungarian problem. Foreign governments are barred from spending money in American elections, and Americans are forbidden from soliciting or accepting it. If these allegations are true, this is a direct attack on the integrity of American democracy. We need a full investigation by Congress, the FEC, and the DOJ. The American people deserve to know exactly what flowed from Orbán’s government into this country’s political ecosystem, who was on the receiving end, and what it bought. ms.now/opinion/new-hu…

6 years of living in Texas and I've come to the conclusion that the no state income tax thing is basically a scam. The property taxes are so high that they negate any savings. We are still paying as many taxes in Texas as we would in California. You save on gas I guess.
