Criminalizing homelessness is profitable for the prison industry, but very expensive - monetarily and socially - for the public. www.governing.com/urban/crimin...

I don't know who needs to hear this, but

Sitting at my desk catching up on work email and suddenly realize I'm not wearing pants

Shit, ol girl is really washed up huh

I have this thing where if there is software pre-loaded on my new device that I cannot use without a subscription, that is absolutely the last product on Earth I will ever pay for. I will boycott it to the end of the world, baby. So figure your shit out because I will die before I pay for Apple News

A highly cogent analysis.

This is a fact. The reason so many prominently visible Black people are light skin is *colorism*. Light skin privilege is real, I have benefitted from it and seen competent, brilliant dark skin colleagues scrutinized, doubted, and given less credit than they earned.

i think the real thing that makes someone a leftist is when you start to actually give a shit about movements and issues that don't affect you. anyone can stand up for things that affect them. but it takes actual principles to stand up for groups you're not a part of. most people dont do this.

This right here.

Sounds like he is describing his entry into the FA stage of FAFO

They hate Black people so much that driving him to his death once was not enough; they will posthumously lynch him again and again. bylinetimes.com/2026/10/21/j...

My stepson just called me "Mom" and every single time I'm like

Democrats and progressives, it is important to DEMAND that they do not receive clemency and are prosecuted for their crimes.

Please hear Hammam’s story💔: We are starving in Gaza as famine returns & the crossings remain closed. We have no home, no security, & barely any food. My mother has asthma & my brother suffers from epilepsy. All we ask for is a $100 bag of flour & his urgent medicine. chuffed.org/project/1844...

I hate Black Opium, but every time I see this knockoff I am tempted to buy it just for the name

I honestly do not think it is too much to ask for people to not be evil.

True

At this critical juncture for climate change, any government entity that is ordering any version of return to office is actively forcing more commuters onto the roads and contributing to an increase in emissions. This is criminally irresponsible and should be a disqualifier for leadership.

SpaceX got almost $6 BILLION in taxpayer-funded defense contracts last fiscal year. Meanwhile, SpaceX CEO, Elon Musk, has spent over $360 MILLION in our elections this cycle. This should be illegal — but it isn't. I'll be introducing a bill to close the loophole that allows it.

#OPHA

it's no accident she just oversaw the successful redistricting of Virginia. And she's Black. So you know we're always involved in "corruption." Going back to Reconstruction

My Chromebook just decided I don't need to be able to scroll anymore

Somebody at this conference is wearing BR 540. I love BR 540, but c’mon

What’s the leading cause of bankruptcy in the US, Matt?

Proposing “Mey/Mem” pronouns for the gender ambivalent

Now I’m looking around the OPHA conference trying to guess who’s an epidemiologist, and I think I can spot them. The whimsical sweaters are a giveaway.

This makes RTO policies make even less sense. Policies that increase commuter numbers contribute to carbon emissions, and are especially irresponsible at this critical juncture.

Same. Requiring work that could be remote to be done in-office is bad policy and it robs workers of time and money. A lot of the best people will go elsewhere unless compensation makes it worth it.

Not to pull a "No True Scotsman", but people who explicitly reject the teachings of Christ are not Christians, and therefore we should not refer to them as Christians. Evangelicals worship greed and self-interest, not Jesus.

I hate it when vendor websites give me "you appear to be browsing too fast" error messages and refuse to load the page. Oh, am I shopping TOO FAST for you? You don't want my fucking money? FOWTS! I'll buy it all somewhere else then.

Girl what?

Om jameel:My legs gave way,&I collapsed to my knees;our tent was bombed, leaving my kids displaced.I am now in the hospital, in urgent need of a $200 surgery to stop severe bleeding from my uterine wall.I am bleeding heavily&appealing to your hearts I want to hug my kids😭 chuffed.org/project/1839...
