2 types of people, those who can hear this image, and those who can't.

I told my therapist I want to go someplace where there’s very few people and the only sound I can hear are albino sheep wailing and crying for attention.

She suggested I go to CPAC.

It’s Saturday in Japan. Have a great day everyone on fediverse.

Alright, I am ready for spring! We are still getting snow where I live and I am ready to move on from winter. So here is a little spring inspiration. The Palouse is amazing with various shades and patterns of green in the rolling hills. This shot is just after a storm rolled through.

"You can watch hour after hour of Adams’s livestreams, as I have, and you won’t find that nugget of forbidden truth. His reasoning is as sloppy as his research. In every way, he’s just wrong." thebulwark.com/the-foolishness

Indigenous light and magic — The Ojibwe and Cree Nations believe the northern lights are the spirits of dearly departed loved ones — dancing their way home to the stars.

Fuck CPAC. The crowds at the Gathering of Nations in Albuquerque, New Mexico are much larger. — And they represent America better too. Agree?

Thought for a #Friday evening! Unfortunately, I do not know the source to credit, but for me it sure does sum up a few thoughts about this week. 🤨

I’m not registering with the government in order to call Ron DeSantis Mr. Potato Head and I can do it wherever I want.

13/13 Seeking to dismantle systematic racism that perpetuates white supremacy is not an attack on white people or white heritage. It is a reconciliation with truth.

We all need more white people to understand the difference, and speak out against white supremacy as the enemy that it is to all people.

Thanks for coming along with me thus far. Please rest assured that I've got sources for all quotes (maybe I should have just included them, but I didn't just to avoid breaking up flow).

Thoughts?

12/ Thus far, the majority of my perspective is informed primarily out of my experience as a Black man.

White Supremacy, though, is not all about racism against Black people.

As an engine in colonialism, Indigenous peoples all over the planet have suffered under it.

Its warped values hurt all it oppresses, including white people who see through its lies.

To stop it, we need white allies. To increase the number of white allies, we've got to get past the strawman defense of "white heritage."

10/ If acquiescing to their superiority keeps the peace, they're fine with it. That's what Jim Crow was/is all about.

Challenging that brings us to my last point on this angle - #WhiteSupremacy hurts everyone, including white people.

I've already observed how finding self-worth only by denigrating the worth of others is sad, but that exactly what #WhiteSupremacy thinks of white people - "on our own, on a level playing field, we're not good enough."

8/ And this is 2nd biggest problem. #WhiteSupremacy is not passive.

Whenever someone asks "Why can't Black people stay out of trouble and do better?" think about what happened in Tulsa, OK.

Black folks minding their own business, tending to their community with employment, schools, churches, banks...and White Supremacists roll up and burn it all down.

Pick a massacre from the attached and research it. You'll quickly begin to see patterns that exist to this day.
