Or how about when people ask “What would MLK say about riots?”

Are police really, really not aware of how this stuff looks? They know they are being videotaped, they know they are not well-thought of right now, and yet they keep doing it. It is like a fucking compulsion. You would think the Department would hire a PR person to come give an hour talk on “How Not to Get Video Taped…

Support request: I have mentioned in some posts that I am a lawyer and in others that I represent some women inmates in our state’s women’s prison. These women were abused by a guard while the guard who was his partner acted as a look out. The abuse ranged from relatively minor (in a legal sense — name calling) to the…

I just spent the better part of 6 hrs cleaning up, sorting, and disposing of nearly 10yrs worth of magazines, old bills, receipts up the wazoo, etc. Bear in mind this is shit that has moved with me twice. As in 2 times I had the chance to cull the mound and 2 times I let the movers pack it.

I got all of the requirements, paperwork wise, settled for my acceptance into nursing school. I start on the 18th and I am so excited/terrified.

Officially participated in my first booty call type situation (went in with my eyes open and all). Feeling a pretty equal mixture of pride and self-loathing. I will accept Internet high fives and assurances that everything is going to be alright.

So relevant today. RIP.

Elie Wiesel is a personal hero of mine.

“I never intended to to be a philosopher, or a theologian,” he wrote. “The only role I sought was that of witness.”

Went to the dentist to get my teeth cleaned for the first time in four years on Monday and had zero cavities! Plus the dentil hygienist heaped high praise upon my gums, which are apparently quite perfect. So, that was cool (especially since I really couldn’t have afforded to fix anything that was wrong...)

Look at all this stuff I got done yesterday evening! LOOK AT IT! Unfortunately I have a messy-ass family and half of it needs to be done again, but I can't because I'm very busy patting myself on the back.

Applied for QA at work. Had my boss write me a list of accomplishments(I don’t pay attention, I’m not usually much for ego)

It took me over a decade, and borrowing from three different libraries, but I finally finished reading Umberto Ecco’s The Mysterious Flame of Queen Loana. Feelin’ accomplished! I normally am a really fast reader.

Hello Jezzies! Happy Saturday! How is everyone ? I am hiding in my house this weekend because I am cheap and broke and my couch is comfy. Also I have been feeling anti-people lately so I am indulging the desire to be alone.

So you mean she does what every other male musician does?

Hey, Tay Tay. Welcome to the Tribe. See you at Rosh Ha Shona services?

twitter is giving me life with all this mess going on

That seriously disgusted me, but I was glad they wrote it. Just highlights how ridiculous it is for those gaurds to be looking down their noses at the prisoners. Knowing that Poussey was in there for weed, when this monster can walk around and not even care about what he’s done? And I don’t doubt for a second that…

I don’t think Poussey was killed purely from a black lives matter standpoint, but because she was the perfect victim. All races of the women were abused maliciously and intentionally- Red was undergoing sleep deprivation, Maritza was forced to eat a live rat, Suzanne and the Nazi were nearly forced to fight before…

I’m still pretty sad about Poussey 😞 Damnit, Netflix.
