I crocheted when I was a kid. Mom did and knew it kept me occupied and out of trouble. Remember those afghans of squares? I made several. The every-color thread was cheap and that was my go-to. None survive. x

It's undeniable. @elienyc is dead right. The TN legislature dislpalyed exactly every concept behind structural, institutionalized racism and defined in Critical Race Theory and put it on public on national TV. It's pure hate, white male grievance, and unmitigated power grabbing.

4 years ago, I deleted my Facebook account.

At first, I thought, “How can I do this? All the important people in my life won’t know what’s going on with me.”

That fear was unfounded.

As it turns out, all the important people still know what’s going on. You see, once they find out I’m not on Facebook, they get a hold of me through some other means. Typically, that means phone, email, or text message.

And a few have joined the Fediverse.

Ginni Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, was directly involved in efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

Just thought I should remind everyone of that today.

2/ Via Victor Shi:

No matter happens, Justin Pearson is one of the most talented, powerful orators I’ve ever heard. Remember his name because I guarantee you this won’t be the last you see of him. There is a reason why Republicans want to expel him. He’s one of our party’s best.

Please, spare me any talk of "civility" in the future. It was redundant ten years ago, and it certainly is now. I don't debate my humanity, and fascism is not an opinion.

The fascist Tennessee Republican House Reps just EXPELLED Rep Justin Pearson, but they spelled his name Justin Jones, before it was corrected. That's a shocking tell. Reps Jones & Pearson are fierce justice & gun sense advocates.
