When Donald knew there was no real threat to his life, he preened for photographers, yelled “Fight, fight, fight!” and didn’t care if a fireman died. When Donald knew there was a real threat to his life, he hid in a catering truck and didn’t care if his staff died in the decoy plane.

Octavia E. Butler’s novel “Parable of the Talents” depicts a dystopian United States run by Christian Nationalists. Their slogan is “Make America Great Again.” Published in 1998, many years before Trump’s political career, but this poem in the book prophesied Trump. (Poem from @zymplex.bsky.social)

Hanging? We need to call this what it is: LYNCHING. Ten Black Americans in less than two years. Every one of these deaths deserves answers, transparency, and scrutiny. No one should look at these images and expect Black Americans to shrug this off, especially in light of our history.

Since penis removal seems unlikely, predators should be punished (and other rapists dissuaded) either by death or life imprisonment without parole. Seriously, who the hell wants violent criminals in their communities? Not doing so leaves half the population at risk. Kill rapists, not immigrants!

At just 16 years old, Bohlale Mphahlele invented a safety earring designed to help protect women and girls. Disguised as jewelry, it includes a camera, GPS tracking, and an emergency alert system that can discreetly send the wearer’s location to trusted contacts. #SheShed #ViVaHerAlliance

Trump voters tell us that they want to ban trans athletes because they so sincerely want to "protect girls and women." And yet they voted for a man who routinely insults, manhandles, and rapes girls and women. As usual, their actions are deafening compared to their words.
