If only this worked. Hipsters in Williamsburg have been "gully" and grown immunity to this.

And frankly, after learning about the failed Vietnam war, it's a feat of journalistic muscle that the majority of the idea of the place is still dictated by the perspective of the State.

It's too easy for journalism to be co-opted by the needs of the State. So it's extremely valid to question what comes out of their mouths. They're accountable only to their company, not to the people.

Americans aren't given examples of the violence, that is. It's not the fault of the people, it never is. People don't erect borders, states do.

I haven't left America. My parents effectively distilled fear of leaving not because of the trauma of home but of that developed coming here. And having to learn from each person that comes as I see them slowly become smaller forms of themselves the longer they're here makes me sad.

Always in my feelings when it comes to borders. Americans do not understand how violent they are and to speak of just "fleeing" reminds me of that every single time.

First of all, a celebrity liked an ultra rare Winifred thirst tweet. I had no chill at all for a year. HUGE! Plus, nearly 400 people from social media have helped me raise 78% of the money I need to get through midwifery school which WILL impact many lives. If OP feels irrelevant, just say THAT

When folks talk about the US devolving into lawlessness if the Democrats match Republican strategies, I don't know how to take that seriously. If you're law-abiding and someone else isn't, that won't stop them from criminally victimizing you. Lawful behavior is no safeguard from lawless behavior.

For me Black culture is actually resistance, so when I engage other Black people culturally, I do consider that I'm acting politically. If the only thing I did for the struggle in a day was riff with other Black people in dialect & share practices with another hodoodist, I was still resisting.

Taylor vocally came out against Marsha Blackburn during that evil lady’s last senate race and Blackburn still won. I think we need to give up the (understandable) fantasy that pop stars can swoop in and save the day. This is very much just my opinion, I know. But I’m right.

Well, sure. But also, my bet is that the behind the scenes effort to court, maintain and accommodate big stars drains time, energy and resources that could support more effect grassroots organizing.

It's pretty wack, & white America is honestly not on a trajectory to learn this at all, but you just can't try to understand Trump as a violent person without understanding him as a violent racist bigot. So Black people have been the targets of violent extremism from his base his whole time.

Nothing is stopping every single Democratic elected official and apparatchik from taking the airwaves every single day to articulately and decisively repeat a set of cogent talking points about Trump (ie 45). Nothing. Dem PACs could be slamming him with ads now. Stop whining and do that.

My friends did a Sunraiser, which while a nod to their artist moniker, was also uplifting: “What’s a SUNRAISER? It’s simple. The capital we raise will rebuild our shop. Then we’ll pay it forward by volunteering our labor to a local non-profit. Sunraising creates a cycle of gratitude and support.”

Fun fact about RFK Jr.: Under his planned policy of stopping all infectious-disease research, you'll never know why your own children have died in agony of measles, polio, and other diseases that were nearly wiped out a decade ago. But you can take comfort in "wellness" TikToks by Nicole Shanahan.

This is a huge red flag on Gaiman. He published a volume explicitly addressing sexual abuse, explicitly knowing that this material can be triggering for survivors, explicitly not caring about how to do it ethically. Being elderly & rich & dating your nanny in her 20s was invalidating, this seals it.
