First of all, there are black people who are disabled. Let’s not exclude them from “our success.”

Do you have spasmodic dysphonia? Because if you don’t, then of course it makes sense that you wouldn’t take them offensively.

What the fuck? You can catch an error thirteen whole goddamn years later and go try to throw him back in prison? And why the hell did the cops need to throw him against the refrigerator and check to see if anyone was in the back for a counterfeiting money charge?!

Because if they admit it, they have to admit that some of the things that they have are unearned and undeserved, and it’s difficult for people to admit that.

Oh, you don’t hurl racial slurs around and greet humans when you pass them by? Look at you, a little champion of racial justice. Do you want cookies for clearing the bar of being a basic fucking human being?

It is building money - Dre has a school named after him and Jimmy Iovine.

Tayari Jones, a native of Atlanta and graduate of Spelman, wrote a novel set during the Atlanta child murders, called Leaving Atlanta. I wasn’t in Atlanta at the time, but from my perspective she did a pretty good job at capturing the fear and trepidation that many families with children felt at the time.

Makes sense to me. There’s a professional maturity that Stacey Abrams has that Beto O’Rourke doesn’t seem to.

Also who the fuck is going to work the farms?

“When it comes to specialized high schools, I think folks really need to do some self-reflection about why they are so invested in a single-test for admission, even when knowing that tool excluded nearly all black kids from a public school in a system that is a quarter black,”

I don’t think they do, because I think…

Ehhh. Only 32% of Stuyvesant’s students are eligible for free lunch, and only an additional 10% are eligible for reduced lunch. That sounds like a lot, but this is a school system in which 75% of the students are economically disadvantaged and eligible for free or reduced lunch. Yes, there are lot of Asian immigrants…

Good!

I’m pretty sure what devourbooks means is that video games started out indie...when video games started they weren’t million-dollar productions but labors of love by one person or a small group. It took decades before companies figured out how to monetize them the way they do now. Even the battle royale genre started…

Frankly, I give MSNBC side-eye for this. Not that there are that many black conservative political commentators, but you put Dr. Michael Eric Dyson, PhD from Princeton, full professor of sociology at Georgetown, author of 20+ books, against a dumbass chick who dropped out of college halfway through? I mean, not that…

But that is what the study says. It’s the fourth paragraph of the article.

There are also other taxes besides property taxes, like sales tax. What dumbasses.

I mean, it’s more complex than that.

She did major in international relations and economics at BU. Which is why I always laugh, in a baffled way, when people criticize her economic proposals. No, she’s not a scholarly economist, but she clearly knows more on the issue than most do.

YES. Nancy and Ronald Reagan’s policies gagged critics and possibly made the horrifying beginning of the AIDS crisis drag on longer than it should, since they refused to pay any attention or allocate any additional monies to the fight since it was mostly gay and black folks dying.

Because Republicans also make it difficult for women to access birth control and abortions, so women often have no choice.
