Where were these celebrities when Republicans: • blocked the George Floyd Act • blocked the John Lewis Act • ended affirmative action • halted Black farmers' relief • restricted the Fearless Fund • outlawed minority business grants • erased Black congressional districts?

The fact that people let Longlegs—looking how he looked—just walk around town, shop at the store and take the bus and nobody just shot him dead as a precaution let’s me know folks are very unserious about their safety lol

One day we are going to talk about how girls like and whole look like Ice Spice purposely seek out fake friendships with dark skinned Black girls as an ego boost.

the funniest part of this cover is that when @newyorker actually had an employee who pointed out the lack of diversity & representation on its own staff—with no Black editor for articles hired in ~15 yrs—instead of thanking her they put her on a retaliatory PIP & fired her…

MeidasTouch I asked Chatgpt if they would hire someone who gave this answer. 😂😂 “Based on this answer, I would have concerns about hiring this person. The response is notably disorganized and lacks clarity, making it difficult to understand their proposed approach to lowering child care
