As others have said, I’m guessing that they’ll reinstate his account 2 years down the road should he decide to run again in order to get ad money and justify it by claiming it’s “in the public interest,” and, if he doesn’t run, they might ban him permanently.

Liz Cheney paid a higher price for Trump’s crimes than Trump did.

It really saddens me that a former President ordered a mob of fanatics to storm the US Capitol where the votes were being tallied, people died, and the harshest punishment he’s getting is “No Facebook for two years”.

So many Travises at once. 

+1 for “dry snitching”.

It’s not *quite* accusing someone of Nazi sympathies because they once owned a VW Beetle made in the ‘70s, but it’s only a step or two removed from it.

We curly-headed ladies - esp those of us with coarse hair - had to sit that one out. Sadly, Mariah couldn’t do it even with fantastic hair people on her payroll. I complained to a friend at the time how much I wanted that hairstyle and she said, “so get it!” and I said, “I did.”

It also says that this was a racist thing until the early 90’s (and then wasn’t?). So given that she’s 41 now, unless she was tuned into kkk goings on in her pre-teen years and was crowned kkk princess of St Louis while a freshman at Princeton at the age of 13 (possible) it doesn’t seem like there’s much here to link…

There’s really not much of anything here. The headline and the beginning of the story made it sound like Erin from The Office was burning crosses and shit. Nope, she attended some corny debutante ball thing that has a racist past. Most of the US has a racist past.

Am I missing something? I see no connection other than the origins of the festival or party or whatever that would tie her to KKK leanings. If dumbass Black people wanted to join that bullshit, that’s of course their choice but I don’t see where she was personally connected to the KKK or even racism. I also think it’s…

Mine too, but then again, I’m just a normal human and not a goddess, so there’s that ;-).

I am addicted to my neighborhood Buy Nothing group. I recently scored an antique gossip bench - for free! I’ve been looking for one forever and I’m super psyched about this. I’ve also gotten a giant box of keurig cups and a giant box of splenda. I posted some ISO’s and last year I scored enough pairs of shorts for my…

Whatintheefuck?!?!??!?!?!?!?!

Hahahaaaaaa she’s the Columbus of ska music! Amazing. In her mind ska only started when while people got into it.

I’ve been around here long enough that this isn’t the first pass at this story I’ve read ... but this is the best effort to date.

“We JuSt HaD sO mUcH mOrE fReEdOm entitlement.”

Yes. This map is slightly dated (NY, for instance added a prohibition in 2019), but here’s the states that as of recently did not have laws preventing officers from engaging in such practices.

This definitely goes against the bullshit “bad apple” defense for cops.  It’s not just a few bad apples; it’s the whole fucking system.  Rotten from the inside out. 

It bears repeating that while the 2003 Prison Rape Elimination Act criminalizes any sexual relationship between officials and inmates because inmates cannot legally give staff consent, FindLaw was reporting as recently as the end of 2019 that 32 states were still allowing police to have supposedly consensual sex with…

There is a cop like this in every town in the South. I can tell you an incident in which I reported my former partner, a white man in his 50's, for requesting oral sex from an offender in order to get a longer curfew. I can tell you of an incident in which an officer granted early parole releases for those that would…
