I planned to share my report on the body cam footage early next week when I learned that a DC news station had obtained some of the footage as a result of my lawsuit and they were going to scoop me. After working on this for a year, I couldn't let that happen. Published 2 mins before they aired :)
It finally happened. My white husband is using my hair products.
That's like S+ rank in the IR achievement list.

Optical illusion of a woman bent over some papers. Her sunglasses are pushed up and she is wearing a hair band so the top of her head looks exactly like a Muppet face
Sorry I know the world is in a terrible fix but I've been laughing at this for ten minutes now
Good. I opened my back yard to some guerilla gardeners. I don’t want folks going hungry on my block.
They were out there all afternoon gasping about the quality of the worms and praising the ladybugs while asking them to please not eat the caterpillars and there is so much sun back here
I really don’t think they can put all this back in the bottle in the long run but in the short run, fuck!
Snatch your IDs, snatch your stories, steal your lives out from under you it’s disgusting. I am so sorry.
I wrote about the first national book banning bill, which effectively seeks to erase trans people. At the end I include a link to let your reps know that you oppose this bill and all it stands for. lithub.com/why-we-must-...
This is not new. None of this is.

Did they have an an ancient Latin scholar preposition removal coach?
Girl, I am going through it. So many people I know are going through it. Imagine being able to teach the subject at the college level intellectually but then get hit over the head in a way that is plain not deniable. Turns out this silence has a structure.
to (sometimes quietly, sometimes loudly) share their own experiences with divination, ancestral guidance, spiritual and psychic powers. I'm talking about everyone from philosophers to STEM scholars, theologians, undergrad and grad students, elders, doulas, diplomats, sociologists, organizers..

Call it end-times fascism, or Toscano's Late Fascism, there is a real crisis faced by capital but it is not merely a crisis of production and profit but an existential crisis, a crisis of climate, a crisis of futurity itself. Speculation reaches its end in the non existence of a speculative future
For all the talk of an Asian century, China and other Asian powers never prepared for scenarios where the US would flip from the primary security guarantor in the Middle East they relied on to the primary source of instability that would undermine their energy supply chains
