She undefeated in court. **** Cardi B was cleared of assault by a Los Angeles jury after a security guard sued her for $24 million in a fingernail attack. www.bbc.com/news/article...
Consciousness is WAAAY overrated.
Pritzker is meeting the moment. We know who is not.

This is because workers are "associated with diversity" by virtue of not being white guys, and to be anti-DEI is to be pro-segregation
…and here we go. 🙄🙄🙄🙄
“Go to the nearest Hell…” A MINISTRY!
The cigarette industry gonna have record profits that day. Whole country with a cancer stick between their fingers, GLOWING.
FIGHT BACK YOU BUMS
Whew we are in the nut house 🏡
I wonder if he’s gonna ask her to cosplay as Ahsoka Tano during the honeymoon.
This!
😭😭😭
showing this to my journalism students
HEY!!!!! MISSED YOU!
I say all the time, I’ve never known how many followers I have. I post on socials for the probably 100 people who interact with me on a regular basis. I also mute or lock my own posts once they get traction. Numbers mean nothing to me.
The fact that she was a top 5 strongest mutant on the planet and was benevolent lol.
Not. Good
One of my favorites by him. “Spend the Night” is my absolute favorite. Homey WENT OFF!
Rahsaan Patterson! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
YES!!!!!

Please please please just exit the damn Nazi bar already, folx! 🙏🏽
Neither did I.
Can we bring back booing people for the rest of 2025 please?? Mediocre trash people deserve it. Make a commitment today to boo more people everyday.
I’ve already seen this image spread to meme accounts on Instagram claiming it’s “enhanced.” AI cannot “enhance” a blurry photo. It can only guess at what shadows are — and inevitably get them wrong. That’s why he looks so strange. I need y’all to lock in on what’s real and what isn’t before sharing
Sci-Fantasy is when you hunch Aliens. Horror Fantasy is when you hunch monsters.
Getting excited. Putting together my list of movies for Horrorthon Year 2. Let’s see what will make wifey cringe this year. 😎😎😎😎
hormonal birth control sure does have effects on my political behavior it keeps me from doing murders which means I'm still allowed to vote
Happy 55th Anniversary to this album.... It gave us the classic song "Move On Up"🙌🏾 #Curtis

They aren’t making good use of their baddies, huh?
They’re taking credit for Cracker Barrel’s food being trash. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
PG COUNTY, MERRLAN!!!!
A hellscape, how can anyone hope to get out alive.
Oooooo. This looks right up my alley!
This is very sharp, and part of the reason why I’ve been saying these deployments are unsustainable. Playing wack-a-mole and engaging in wars of attrition in every major city in the country is going to EXHAUST the National Guard. They already don’t want to be there.
There ARE rapists and pedos even here on Bluesky. He’s talking about homeless children who were groomed by evil people
…and everyone’s going to say they never thought he was capable of any of it. Y’all……..There were signs. BIG ones.
So, I’m supposed to pretend this isn’t a murder house? Because what I see…very clearly…is a murder house. That man added all that cutesy shit, but there’s a door to a torture chamber in there somewhere. H.H. Holmes-assed house.
Chuck done finally had enough of Lucy's shit. RKO OUTTA NOWHERE!!!
Yeah. That’s really a sit around and drink beer activity.
Fantasy is when you hunch elves; science fiction is when you hunch robots.
Had blue crabs tonight at my parents’ house. I love it here. 😎😎😎😎
“Tomorrow Never Knows” hits HARD!
That has really become one of my favorite social media memes. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
First kid is absolutely going to have bodies in the basement and yeah crash out little ones because stop pushing kids faces in cake. 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This part.
Yet again the internet takes cheeky jokes about weekend at Bernie’s and have blown it up into conspiracy theory. Be careful how dedicated you get to “finding proof” you’re starting to sound like the people who stormed the capital. PS “the Illuminati” is antisemitic conspiracy theory. Please stop.
Autumn beers are amazing!
Don’t let her shame you!!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭
Bruh. The way I turn into a middle-aged white woman from a Hallmark movie THE MINUTE a single leaf changes color. Me when the temp hits 70 degrees…
🙌🏾
Thanks? 😔😔😔😔
Imma take my chances cause the ancestors know my heart
A JOURNEY!!!!
“That’s the nature of a fight, isn’t it? Lifetimes amassed and spent within each second—every moment a moment to react, reflect—and each and every moment that ugly mofo takes a swipe at you, rips away at you, spewing blood and bile, an eternity in itself.” Read the rest here:
Parents like this suck, obviously, but it's the kids who I really feel bad for. When they grow up, they're they're either going to be cultusts like mom or going to viscerally feel how far behind they are intellectually and psychologically. Damage like that is a deep well to claw out of.
Meanwhile, I have a 17 y.o. niece who has a 4.6 GPA, scored in the high 1500s on the SAT, plays sports and the violin, and has traveled. I also have an 8 y.o. niece who is doing algebraic equations and programming robots for fun, plays keyboard and sings. Both will be viewed as “DEI recruits.” 🙄
This is really going to hurt multicultural brands. All beauty has low margins but the black market, in particular, is served by very small brands or undercapitalized ones. They also rely on the comparatively wealthy black female consumer to make it work.
Beauty retailers starting to communicate to customers what we all knew was coming
NEW STORY DAY ✨✨✨ “What To Do When A Demon Is Talking Shit At You” is now live and waiting. Thanks very much to @innerworlds.bsky.social for giving this gory, throw down, gross out piece a home!!! 🖤🖤🖤
Nah. You gotta watch!
What these nostalgic displays purposely obscure are the reality of AIDS and the constant fear of Global Thermonuclear War.
This is pretty much the clearest summation of American masculinity I’ve come across.
We’re good people. ♐️
Trash 🗑️ Duty
I get mad AF thinking about how gas used to be under $1.50 a gallon.
1. Trans women are women. Stop saying that trans women are "Men pretending to be women." 2. Sexual predator men don't pretend to be women to molest girls. That would be way too much work and effort. Sexual predator men pretend to be youth pastors to molest girls. 3. Trans men are not a "gotcha."
PUT THE YUMMY POWDER IN YOUR SMOOTHIES!!!
I’m going to miss the New Carrolton Shoppers, but there are four Latin/Asian grocery stores in that area, one being in the strip mall behind it, and another one across 450. So, at least the area’s not becoming a food desert.
THIS IS A JOURNEY!!!!!
Yes! And I think this is a publishing problem rather than an individual one. I deal with this a lot when doing RA. Readers tell me they don't like speculative fiction then the book they want readalikes for are...speculative masking as literary.
I have this gut feeling that the tides are shifting to new visions. I also think being a slave to hard science has been a problem. I’m a new wave guy; I don’t need the intense focus on “realistic science.” SF is about humanity, not science. I think pushback is happening, if you choose to see it.
Great minds! I absolutely agree with you. I mean, I’m enjoying Alien: Earth. That franchise went from “the future” to “an alternative historical future.” Projecting a future that’s fifty to a hundred years off is a staple of the genre, for better or worse.
I suspect that necessity will force A LOT of new far-future epics, hopefully with a more realist/utopian bent. This is the time, again, to imagine different worlds and different ways of being.
I also think Mamatas makes a good point that I’ve been thinking about a lot over the past few years: Near-future sci-fi, particularly dystopian near-future sci-fi, has become more acceptable and is seen as more “literary” in today’s world.
This is a good thread. My knee-jerk reaction to the original thread about Science Fiction dying is to again ask “who are you reading?,” because I have at least four solid space opera novels published within the past couple years on my stack right now…all by PoC/Queer writers.
RADDATZ: One of the things they are trying to do in DC with the National Guard is have them back up local law enforcement WES MOORE: They are picking up trash
Beyond the obvious and accurate commentary about this being an overreach by a white supremacist, notice how them folks don’t give a damn about Secret Service being in their shit. Again, DC is literally swarming with Federal law enforcement on a normal day. Residents aren’t scared, just annoyed.
Of course he is. “Western civilization” is incapable of shame…and it’s boiling the planet.
If there is any justice in this universe, that man with suffer in ways big and small. He LITERALLY took candy from a baby…and is proud of it.
When I first saw this, I allowed myself to believe that this was the boy’s father taking the cap for safekeeping because the alternative was far too macabre for me to absorb.
Maybe it’s bc everything is else is so terrible but just watching strangers come together to celebrate the city they love organized by a potential leader who just wants to celebrate that love and help the people who live there I am 😭😭😭😭😭
I’m serious. This REALLY infuriates me. @nbcnews.com @cbsnews.com @cnn.com Do your job. You failed to lift this up in 2024. If farmers are hurting, explain why and who is to blame. And remind Americans that we paid BILLIONS for Trump’s first tariff blunder. It’s so irresponsible to ignore this.
So pretty.
The Nazis looted and burned cutting edge research on gays, lesbians, and trans persons in the service of culling the “genetically unfit.” Nothing in this era’s playbook is new.
