An original Nashville sit-in member, along with Diane Nash, James Bevel, and John Lewis. Trained in non-violence by James Lawson. At age 21, he signed a will before the Freedom Rides, knowing he could die.
May his soul be at peace, and may we all have such courage in the face of oppression.
America does not deserve our elders. Heaven does.
From time to time I see certain white pundits and reporters reveal that they have no understanding of any of the subtleties with which race and racism actually operate in this country. Just the most naive, simplistic, mechanical thinking. Deeply embarrassing.
can't the firefly cast just do an indie movie to hang out together
Infuriating but unsurprising.
Absolute clown car
I wonder how Massie would do in a primary against whoever the MAGA Republicans decide to run next election. I think he wipes the floor with Vance, Rubio, or Cruz.
(Offline. Not here. Watching that person figure out basic instructions in real time was crazy.)
Sometimes you have to give people grace and take the time to figure out if they're rude or just stupid. I almost aired somebody out for no reason.
Democrats may not be able to prevent Mullin's confirmation, but they can certainly turn his track record of offense and stupidity into two days of televised humiliation so spectacular that he is wounded in Trump's eyes from day 1. That is the job.
Wrestling as an enterprise is such a fun thing and imagine being a heel with a hook like RFK Jr. being your uncle. Chef's kiss. But THAT federation? In 2026?! No, thank you.
I wouldn't want any female member of my family with a federation that wouldn't protect her from rapists. www.bostonglobe.com/sports/2016/...
No deep reason. I just find the character unpleasant.
If I were in charge however, I would be calling them both. They'd each get a movie with a different crew. One blue. One gold.
Coogler: Storm, Wolverine, Nightcrawler
Wachowski: Rogue, Cyclops, Jubilee
Those are their starter Pokémon. They'd have to fight each other for everyone else. And NO EMMA.
Any director who picks up X-Men and is not an established white man is going to be micromanaged to death. And if they hold too much sway to be micromanaged, they will not be getting that call.
The directors who should have X-Men projects (Coogler, Wachowski) are the very directors who will never get them because they have too many successes racked up to be controllable.
God, I wish I still had the ability to believe in the goodness of human beings like this.
"I know he throws any and everyone under the bus the second it becomes expedient to do so, but for me... it will be different" - a seemingly neverending parade of pathetic hangers-on
Same thing for Bovino, tbh. White-supremacist welfare.
I'm so annoyed that America will still have to pay for a cushy do-nothing LARPing project for Noem because Trump is afraid she'll flip on him if he doesn't keep cutting her checks.
I truly do think all of the "Noem out, Mullin in" posts and stories are failing American democracy right now!
Trump is announcing his nominee.
That's it.
If the Senate majority wants to confirm him, they're a part of this—even after knowing what they know now.
And that matters come November.
The thing about fascists is that they have so much respect for each other.

Anyway, flowers to the reporter courageous enough to ask Mullen why Al Green silently holding a sign that said "Black people are not apes" enraged him so. That press conference is coming. bsky.app/profile/moll...
Kash Patel smiling while the US men's hockey team is in a celebratory huddle. Without him. Ooh, the Drake energy.
All that money to be the mascot on the outside.
Look at all the jet fuel Kash has been burning trying to get white people to love him.
I'm actually more fearful when he hires a racial minority or a woman because they are usually even more evil or incompetent than a white male appointee because it pleases Trump to try to shame us and because they have something to prove to the white men they idolize.
This is the dude who tried to snatch the "Black people are not apes" sign from Al Green, so things are about to get SUPER antiblack. Also, he is not very bright, so this appointment is a smuggler's dream.
And this isn't me being prissy. Because I will watch old Murphy and Pryor clips and be in TEARS. And they are offensive! AND funny! But you know who else has old funny clips? Bob Newhart. You know who is funny RIGHT NOW? Josh Johnson.
