Wow. You can really tell she has a hell of a lot of experience trying to patiently explain things to humans with the intellectual capacity of a child.

Effin. A. Love this. I'd have to go WAY back (few months-ish so, forever) but there was video of this tactic of looking up/calling out cops on the spot being used before and... Oh yeah I forgot I made a video edit someone requested!
Great way to throw them off.
ccny campus magazine livestream is genuinely incredible, they’re reading out police badge numbers + names and getting people in the chat to search complaints filed against them, then reading the complaints back out loud to the cops 😭

Besides knocking on doors in Flint to get immediate needs met, petitioning my state government to fix what they broke, organizing thousands of others across the state to do the same, umpteen protests (see my avatar), and providing moral support for my friends there?
Step off.

"I look back on this time and I do feel shame. Not for being poor, but for allowing the judgement of others to dehumanize both me and my mom."
Time for me to reread this apparently.
Suggest you read it too
Patrick Lyoya. His name is
#PatrickLyoya
. He was 26 years old. He and his family were refugees, fleeing Democratic Republic of Congo violence 7 years ago. He was a father of two. He was a Michigander. He should not have been murdered by a Grand Rapids cop.

Video shows police officer straddling Black man's back, fatally shooting him on the ground in Grand Rapids, Michigan, amid a struggle over the officer's Taser.

Well that's just nonsense.
It's a fashion magazine shoot.
From a photographer with a history of not shooting dark skin tones well and, well, whatever the hell this is.

I love how most (not all but most) folks thinking this is fake are men.
As a woman who has argued for physics against dumbass philosophy based on completely incorrect ideas* from a man insisting I'm mistaken, trust me, it rings pretty dang true.

Still I don't think I've done enough, but hey, at least I didn't make huge promises and fail to deliver a damn thing to people who are going through f-king enough already THANK YOU.
Put your money where your mouth is and actually support Flint kids: ⬇️

Michigan folks if you're not paying attention to Midland right now, my God, please do.
If you're in Midland get the f--k out.
If you have friends or family in Midland make sure they're getting the f--k out.

It's on label for narcolepsy and requires monthly prescriptions for that and adhd.
It's medicine. People need.
Not "tweaking". Medicine. To function.
@ScottHech
Raise your hand if you've ever called the cops about DV you witnessed happening (or God forbid experienced and I'm sorry) and f--k all was done.
Multiple times.
I am so sorry for her and everyone who knew and cared about her. And angry. Because. Again.

You have two options:
1. Post a screenshot that you donated to the Flint fundraiser above, since I know that'll actually directly help.
2. Show me tangible proof/citation that he did anything remotely approaching what he initially promised.
Until then, I've got no use for you.
We KNEW this was going to happen.
Somewhere.
Eventually.
Statistically.
$800 million gap in water and sewage infrastructure needs. Annually. 10% of dams in poor or unsatisfactory condition. Climate change causing more intense weather events.
We knew.
I'm so sorry Midland.
@Imani_Barbarin
Genuinely... Just genuine. The thought and care in crafting that is very apparent and the logic and flow and conclusion especially spot on.
That was with the read. Respect.

Don't forget you're probably waiting on getting your deposit back from your old place, too.
Glad you're representing renters and working folks proper right off the bat. Fight the good fight.

Jesus managed to be with and trust Mary Magdalene. In fact she was the first one he appeared to after he rose from the dead.
So pray tell where in the Bible is this crap?
Today a woman with developmental disabilities came into the library, and said she was lost. She didn't know her address, but her phone number was in her pocket on a piece of paper with Elmo on it. She kept saying, "The library is a safe place."

Our schoolbus once got stuck behind a loooong train next to a Frito Lay truck. So of course we were out the windows trying our luck. The driver checked the length of the train and then actually handed us over a whole box.
Best bus trip after breaking down next to the firehouse.

4491 by the count I'm looking at. Just American uniform, 4809 total coalition. Cause many countries didn't join us. Because it was a war based on obvious f--king lies and all.
Also at least 150,000 Iraqi civilians. At least.

Homeless folks have a smaller eco footprint than near anyone. Probably negative in my state cause 10 cent deposit bottles. If you've got better, by all means. Quick and cheap workaround to circumvent something designed+manufactured to suck, I'm gonna give a pass.
Wage theft is the biggest stealing crime in the USA but we aren’t fully funding the National Labor Relations Board!! The NLRB exists to protect the rights of workers when we work together on issues like wage theft.
If we starve the NLRB, bosses can keep starving the workers 😤

Spanish is the most common language spoken in Michigan other than English. (Arabic is 3rd). Maybe MDOC can hire some multilingual guards. And stop infringing on prisoner rights. Both those things.
We understand such concerns, and we have already addressed inaccuracies in some '...of Auschwitz' books published.
However, "The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas" should be avoided by anyone who studies or teaches factual history of the

Already followed these folks but I'm going to follow anyone who drops a booking because of him - especially lower profile folks taking a bigger hit. Just saying.
one thing i didn't realize when i first got cats was that, for them, "playing" is basically a form of performance art, where i am expected to put on an oscar-caliber acting display to make a grumpy furry fellow excited to play with his own toys
Ok poorly worded but don’t worry. I am still a cat I was just using past tense because I was a cat at the time (but continue to be a cat). If you need proof it’s on my wikipedia page titled Jorts (cat)

As someone who is vaxxed but lives in a college area, thank you for considering the surrounding community. And beyond. I'd really REALLY rather not gamble with passing covid to my also vaxxed but very vulnerable parents, friends, or my friend's unvaxxed kids I watch once a week.

And those who can't afford to live in DC on a $0 salary just don't get the opportunities then, I guess. I know friends who have worked full time jobs on top of unpaid internships out of necessity. It's insanity, and their unpaid internships weren't in Congress.
