The thing with white people (generally) when it comes to bigotry and racism is that when shit gets real, they look to minimize their own consequences first.

Know why that is terrible? Because that, whether they know it or not, is an admission of complicity.

Pay what you owe.

First Trailer for ‘Primate’ Teases a Gnarly Creature Feature

What do you get when you take the thrills/horror of Cujo and replace it with a chimpanzee instead? You get a great looking film called Primate.

Note for folks who don't know: Portland is in Multnomah County, Oregon.

Clark County is in Washington State. They took her across state lines to be put in jail.

screencap says "KOIN 6 News contacted the Clark County Sheriff's Office for clarification on why this woman is even in Clark County (the arrest was in Portland) and why she's being held without bail. At this time, they have not responded.

Google Maps showing that to get from the PDX ICE Facility to Clark County detention it's 11.2 miles and a 46 minute drive.

Just so everyone is clear, the main issue in the Supreme Court voting rights case tomorrow is whether it's racist against white people to enforce the Voting Rights Act.

I'm dead serious. We live in incredibly stupid times.
