It is important to recognize that a homophobic bigot decided to take this manβs life. This talent is gone because of unjustified and irrational hatred.
Rest In Peace, Jonathan, and know your legacy is carried with love.
May the world change for the better, with peace for all.

the fact most reports are leaving out that he was killed protecting his husband during a homophobic hate crime where his dead dog's skull was placed in their mailbox as a threat is leaving some important details out i think

This admin making a big show of importing white people while illegally snatching up brown faces off the street and throwing them out of the country sends a pretty clear message.

A photo of ~100 members of the American Federal Government Employees union (AFGE) all wearing navy blue shirts with yellow letters saying "AFGE" standing on the steps of a court house. The caption reads "BREAKING NEWS: May 9th, 2025- U.S. District Judge Illston issues temporary restraining order (TRO) in American Federation of Government Employees, AFL-CIO v. Trump! All RIF and reorg plans on hold until next hearing on May 22nd, 2025.
Some good news!!! A coalition of labor unions (including CDC's local union-AFGE), nonprofits and local govs sued Trump over the dismantling of HHS. The judge just issued a restraining order on all further firings and restructuring until the next hearing on May 22.
Thank you AFGE!!! π πͺπππ

OCEAN'S 8 meets BLACK PANTHER
THE SOA
PITCH
13 yo Ida's first loyalty is to the Sisterhood of thieves she calls family.
But when a trial heist goes wrong she's faced with a choice:
betray her sisters to protect them or refuse and bring their death.

Top photo: A picture of the Black Panther in his dark blue panther suit and the country of Wakanda behind him.
Middle photo: A young girl called Carmen Sandiego. She's wearing a red winter coat, black gloves and pants. To the left side is the logo N.
Bottom photo: The cover of Ocean's Eight movie with Sandra Bullock.
From top left to bottom right:
A Black model wearing a metal jacket and shades. A cyber punk like city with neon colors and the silhouettes of seven people standing against it. A hacker's computer screen awaiting a passcode. An underground sci-fi train station with a slick train and neon lighting. The eye of a determined Black person. A screen covered in codes with a bracelet floating on it. A model wearing black biker gloves. The den of a hacker with multiple surveillance monitors on the wall. A Black girl wearing box braids pulled up in a slick bun.
Two Black girls stand in a silver lit corridor in front of a message board. One girl is in her night gown complete with a bonnet and smiling. The other is grinning uncomfortably and wearing a cat suit with light stripes. They are two main characters from the middle grade fiction The SOA written by Peace Zodanou and currently on sub to editors.

This country wants poor people to die. They want them to suffer from treatable conditions. They are gleeful about it. And thatβs why no one cares about an insurance CEO. This is their bed and they get to lie on it.

My occasional reminder that audiobook lovers can support their local bookstores with a monthly subscription to @librofm.bsky.social. And #TheStoryGraph is an AMAZING Black woman owned app for your reading stats.
You do not have to support Audible & Goodreads! #BookSky #BlackBookSky
