PLZ get vaccinated y'all. There's a new CDC Director who has 0 medical training, and the worm infested RFK is gutting access to vaccines. We don't need anymore vaccine preventable deaths.
Get flu, COVID, & any other vax recommended for you & your kids based on age & medical history.

The way pregnant people, especially Black pregnant people, are treated is atrocious. How do you send someone home from a C section aka intense abdominal surgery with just Tylenol and ibuprofen?!?

One of the worst parts of the modern condition is having to listen to billionaires airing out the stupidest policy ideas, random musings, and other mental detritus. It’s unbearable.

I would like to see when the democratic party has pandered to Black people. They've pretty much told us we better get in line with them or else we're not grateful.

Notice the framing here chat, remember how the TL pointed out that Black reps often get labeled as “far left and radical” just by VIRTUE of being BLACK—-they’re even calling her a “squad member” now the same “leftists” are turning on her—-stay. Woke.

Black people:
ICE detain U.S. citizen for looking Somali—use illegal chokehold to tackle him to ground.
Man repeatedly begs agents to look at his digital passport ID—they refuse.
Drove him 7 miles away before releasing him alone into Minnesota snow storm—told him to "walk home" in freezing weather advisory.

God advice. Lots is out there, Black folks have cared about communicating it & still care. Don't expect handholding from us & for us to baby you, that's white privilege. You really can understand the words themselves. And stop being so afraid of real Black people offline that you can't interact.
A cool way to learn from Black people (not Blacks) is to read their books, articles, watch their content, etc. The labor is already done, and you can pay for it or boost it. It isn't "on them" to educate you, but you do have to go to them for it.

People lost their livelihoods for making anodyne comments in the wake of his death. Now teens are making memes about him and his death on TikTok. Google searches spiked and have now flatlined. Texas is trying to create a Hitler Youth league in his honor. We'll wait to see if Texans will fight back.

I say all this to say, if you are the only voice in your life speaking out against AI… keep speaking
the great thing about public opinion is that it *is* fluid, and it does shift
on my best days, I would like to believe that we aren’t too far over the cliff yet

America is the only country actively trying to kill its citizens while also asking them to feed as many words and images of themselves into a program before death so their avatars can be owned forever in a data center poisoning what was once their people's land.

The proper question is if a tech bro stole your dead grandmother’s voice and made her say shit she didn’t say because she’s like, still dead, would you pay for it?
