“...because she had a cash-only job as a twerk technician.”

“Swim with a shirt on ? Since when can you not do that? “

I know this is all about whyte people upset about black folks in supposedly whyte spaces, but what do those who aren’t honest with themselves tell themselves?

Still trying to wrap my head around the sheer evilness of this. They are snatching kids, even those too young to know their parent’s names, some so young their parents won’t recognize them after a few months, without any sort of plan of reuniting them. How in the holy fuck is that possible?

“Who spends an hour in a subway? Lol. Maybe it was air conditioned and the AC was broken in their van”

The fact that so many cops are dumb as dirt, is a good reason for us to want them *not* to respond too...

I missed that she gave a callous response. The response in the post is attributed to her rep, rather than to her.

“Because her taking it actively prevents trans people from using their own voices in a system where they already experience extraordinary marginalization and erasure. She’s an active participant in the oppression of trans folks by taking this role. How is that not clear?”

Sooooooooooo the key to light sentences for felonies* is to not be in need of any profit recognized from the commission of said felonies**?

“It’s literally in the manual about how abusers work. Psychologists have an acronym for it and everything.”

Sil-Lai’s allegations against Simmons have enough corroboration to see print. As frustrating as it is, the allegations against Calloway’s lack the same corroboration.

“Oh. I see the charges are just a formality, since the all-white jury of MAGAts they will inevitably assemble are going to let him off. Then he’ll be on Hannity a week later for a special segment on ‘thugs destroying america’. Assuming Tucker KKKarlson doesn’t get him first."

I love the way their press release somehow combines True Crime, Mob stories, Magic AND Science Fiction in a way that is somehow even more ludicrous than one might imagine.

This is fantasticamazingspectacular. I hadn’t heard her name before yesterday, but today she is one of my new heros.

OH.MY. GAWD. Bless you Mr Russell, sir. Bless you...

I’m still shaking my head at the white privilege on display here. Weed businesses are still illegal in the eyes of the Federal govt.
