Holy shit. This is Angelo Elia, a legislative correspondent for Congressman Dave Taylor.

According to @rooster.info, during a Zoom meeting today, he had an American nazi flag displayed in the background.

So many ppl spent the entire 2010s online trying to find ways to exclude Blackness from their interpretation and analysis of history; the cost of doing so is a level of intellectual and political unpreparedness that cannot meet the current moment in a way that’d be laughable if it wasn’t dangerous.

The first worst time I ever saw for Latinos in the US is now. The second worst time was post-911. There were actual border vigilantes on horses hunting people down and pistol whipping, raping and even murdering. The next tweet talks about intersectionality- folks need to read up about that.

So a couple people have now hinted at the idea that Black people didn’t have it so bad post-9/11 because Muslims had it bad. This ignores that there were and are a lot of Black Muslims. This also ignores that more than one group of people can be targeted for state violence. It’s never just one group

The data corroborates the vibe. A 2013 University of Chicago study of 4,000 married couples in the US found that as soon as a woman out-earns her husband, both are 6% less likely to report a "very happy" marriage. They're also 8% more likely to report marital troubles and 6 percent more likely to discuss separating. A Swedish study from 2016 found that a married woman is twice as likely as a man to be divorced three years after being promoted to CEO. A similar pattern follows in the public sector: Women who are elected to positions like mayor or parliamentarian double the chances of their marriages falling apart.

Yeah, as one who watched a white HS classmate come to school in blackface and receive absolutely no discipline from school administration (this was in 2005), I have many thoughts about this whole "Racism wasn't as big a deal in the 00's" talk.

Jack Tripper @chadstanton.blacksky.app · 6h

I don’t know how to approach “Republicans weren’t racist in the early aughts” as someone who went to Texas during the early aughts and had to debate whether or not Black students were “stealing” people’s spots in class.

NEW — I dug into the story of ICE abducting a 13-year-old boy in Massachusetts and moving him 500 miles across state lines without notifying his mother, local cop's complicity, and how the federal government's justification for such cruelty is already falling apart:

ICE took a 13-year-old they said had a gun. Local cops say he didn’t.

Now he's detained 500 miles away from his Massachusetts home.

This is not a call for pity but more to put into perspective how 2025 has been impacting a lot of artists:

Between losses of sales, wholesale, tariffs, and fewer corporate clients, I have lost 50% of my gross income this year as a full-time graphic designer and artist.

So Jurassic Park is about a group of rich people who don't understand that biology is far more complicated than "there are only two genders" and how this ignorance toward gender fluidity in nature causes these rich people to lose their money and die.

Many white Americans believe racism in America ended the day Martin Luther King was shot. They were raised to think"Blacks are just lazy" It's impossible for them to listen to Black People. It's up to those who call themselves our "allies" to do the work explaining it. They will only listen to you.
