She/her. Full of snark and fury. Prep’s my style not my outlook. I post what I like—keep scrolling if you don’t agree.

The Regime's goal is to grind everyone down. Plain & simple. Our goal is to refuse this by taking turns to fight where and how we can. When one group needs to bow out, then another group needs to step in and so on. We don't all have to do everything. We can all do something though. Stay in the fight

Straight-up racial profiling.

"During the encounter, Greeley said they told her she 'doesn’t look like' a Greeley."

www.yahoo.com/news/article...

Chicago Tribune: Greeley, who was born at Illinois Masonic hospital and is adopted, carries a copy of her passport just in case she runs into federal agents.

“I am Latina and I am a service worker,” Greeley said. “I fit the description of what they’re looking for now.”

During the encounter, Greeley said they told her she “doesn’t look like” a Greeley.

“They said this isn’t real, they kept telling me I’m lying, I’m a liar,” Greeley recalled. “I told them to look in the rest of my wallet, I have my credit cards, my insurance.”

When I posted a meme saying that we should support Tish James like we did Jimmy Kimmel, heaps of white people began attacking me. Not on Twitter, here on BlueSky. A whole bunch of guilt ridden, hit dogs came here to holler. The problem with America is that racism survives progressivism.

In 1511 my Taíno ancestors were taught that you rise 3 days after death as Jesus did, & while occupied by Spanish colonizers they caught and drowned one. They watched his body for 3 days and when he did not rise they rebelled knowing they were lied to.

Happy Indigenous People's day.

Same. I’m not saying you don’t have an ulcer, just that stress caused mine because when I left, I got better. Mine was diagnosed by the endo and Dr Google 😜

It’s unconfirmed—just enjoy the laugh if it turns out not to be true

My former boss gave me an ulcer. Can you remove the stress that is exacerbating it, then maybe you can do the coffee??
