Increase Your Lexicon: MISOGYNOIR (noun) Shoutout to Dr. Moya Bailey for this term that describes discrimination against Black women specifically. It's important, and sadly, all too relevant in many ways right now. #misogynoir #IncreaseYourlexicon #words #vocabulary #voiceover

Lula winning is great for the planet, great for Brazil, and great for people who aren't revanchist assholes everywhere in the world, but let's not forget that it's also going to make some of the worst people on Earth extremely sad and mad. We should enjoy that, as a little treat.

That stat is startling! But this is what I mean when I say that Americans only notice horrific things that happen to Black people, when they start happening to non-Black people🤷🏿‍♂️ Ferguson, MO has 14K Black people. It issued ~20K racist citations a year against them🤯, leading to ~30K arrest warrants.

Startling stat — a police officer in a small Texas town handed arrested and handed over immigrants to ICE at such volume that the total number is the equivalent of 10% of his town's population. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/25/m...

Court bulletin de nouvelles de ICI Musique sur les manifs d'hier en France: 50 Policiers blessés, des incendies, 75 interpellations. C'est tout. Y avait 500 000 personnes qui ont marché. Quel choix angles de merde du diffuseur public. Du journalisme de collaboration.

Public execution has always been a part of US society. Even now, regularized police killings and capital punishment make it so. My latest for @prismreports.org is about why, livestreamed or not, open state-sanctioned killing is already the norm. prismreports.org/2026/10/21/e...

prismreports.orgPublic execution is an everyday reality—streamed or notFor some, the Trump administration’s plan to livestream an execution was unacceptable because it wouldn’t happen behind closed doors

You know, #FreeLink makes sense if you're trying to appeal to the Establishment. But he is free and has been for a while on Blacksky. Why not free yourself and migrate off bsky.social?

Mi'kma'ki (and more specifically Nova Scotia), I miss you. 🌊 I’ve applied for a postdoc in Kjipuktuk, which has me considering whether I could really live there again. And despite the political turmoil on both the provincial and municipal levels, I’m still feeling the pull.

Yeah, housing is more expensive than here. There are fewer activities than here. The city is more car dependent than here. Last time I lived there, the anti-Blackness damn near broke me. And yet, all of that fades away when I sit on the top deck of the ferry crossing the harbour. ⛴️

I’m still in motion, and Mi’kma’ki might not be where I end up. But I know that my body is ready for a change, and east feels like as good a direction as any. So Kjipuktuk connections, hi! 👋🏾 I might be back in January, and if so, I'll probably need your help to make the city feel like home.

is being conservative the new “punk rock”? of course not you fuckin dip shit

Tried to take some suits for dry cleaning this AM. Person behind the counter tried giving me shit for not lint rolling a shirt? Said it would make the cleaning much more difficult somehow. Picked up my clothes and took them elsewhere. If you can't use a lint roller, I can't trust you with my stuff.

Alberta's referendum vote was never the point. The racist nine questions before it give the UCP their "mandate" to do whatever the fuck they can to hound and scapegoat immigrants and Ottawa anyway. And most people just...fucking didn't bother to keep voting on those? The UCP won this referendum.

I just burst out laughing in this diner because BBC News showed a tweet from Macron which began “No room for violence in our Republic.” Oh WORD?????? THEE French Republique????? That one??? My, my, my. Modern executioners carry erasers instead of axes.

I've been doing active listening for the Massimadi festival over the past few days. It's been such a blessing to see all of these amazing Black queer and trans films! If you're in Tiohtià:ke, you should definitely check out the rest of the festival.
