We are celebrating our 21st Valentine's Day together. I had to stop and think about that because it does not feel like it's been that long. We aren't even in our 40's yet, which is wild to say, but we have been together so long and somehow it does not feel like it.
Right now, I’m paying $768 a month for a one-bedroom apartment in a co-op, but back when I moved in 16 years ago, it was just $515.
I LEARNED THE ANSWER TO THIS
Chris's Steakhouse was a New Orleans landmark
Chris Matulich periodically got bored, sold it, waited for the new owner to fail, and bought it back cheap
The sale conditions: Can't move it, can't change the name
He did this six times
Then he sold it to Ruth Fertel
“Did that MF pay extra to yell?!”
my god there has never been a more accurate use of this
Baltimore Co is an outlier even among suburbs, notorious for institutionalized racism. What other county (biggest in its major metro area) has no public pools or housing authority & zones to reserve 90% of its land area for wealthiest 10% of population, almost all white? In a county only 50% white.
Anytime someone white runs this bullshit where they're trying to imply that the Irish had it as bad as Black people in america. Tell them to look up two things
Virginia slave codes of 1662
and
Virginia slave codes of 1705
No predictive model could foresee this degree of national self-sabotage - an act of willful decline that transcends political theory.
This how I know black folk and white folk live in different realities. Because I coulda told you in my teens that some people in this country have so much hate in their hearts that they’d burn this country to the ground just to be rulers over ashes, if it meant people they don’t like get hurt more.
Tech companies only have five ideas: robot slave (actually just human slaves), hallucinatory counter-reality, untaxable money, The Everything App, and Clippy
And this right after many Americans have to start using it for groceries.
People won't be able to rent homes BECAUSE they can't afford food. Not the other way around. Ugh
April and Thursday going on another one
Russia is busy with Ukraine, we should all be watching how China responds to this. My guess or more so my hope, China will not get involved. North Korea going North Korea, we not worried about them.
Elon saying he’s going to reprogram his chatbot’s view of history is a perfect example of why these kinds of AI products aren’t the neutral “tools” people always defend them as. They’re little political projects reflecting the ideologies of their creators
NASA has gotten to space without SpaceX and can and SHOULD do it again. Let's not overstate the range of possibilities.
White Americans have no cultural identity outside of white supremacy & the unity that privilege affords. It’s why they see cultural expressions as “other” OR a threat to national unity. To even be CONSIDERED white, immigrants had to assimilate into that ideology too

Ordered pesos before my trip to make tipping easier for staff. Then saw $20 MXN = $1.10 USD. That hit hard. People work for that. I paid a florist $13K MXN ($700) without blinking. I'm not rich, but the disparity stings. What felt “right” now feels complicit, I’ll just carry it.
Crying O’s, yes. Wildest was my wife blacking out after back-back orgasms, waking to climax, then passing out again. Repeated 2 more times, before I stopped/panicked but she said next time keep going. 😮💨
WE’RE BACK!
“Noah's Arc fans rejoice! After years of teasing, a brand-new movie based on the iconic 2005 Logo series is headed to Paramount+ – and just in time for Pride season.”

I don’t think it’s a coincidence the conversation around young men is so similar to racism. Someone says “we need to end racism” and so often the response from a white person is “did you just call me racist????”
People with more power are so scared about losing what they know they don’t deserve.
there was a whole media boomlet around this time over “angry white men!”
The US used to have free to low tuition until schools couldn't discriminate based on race
Aren't you the dude who requested shit-stained panties on here?
If your kid dies it's not the milk's fault it means your kid was weak. We saw that with the Mennonite dude whose daughter died from measles. He still thinks he did the right thing not vaccinating her
The issue is they don't think pasteurized milk is clean. Rfk jr. Thinks raw milk is superior. The thing is their version of whiteness means they're inherently clean and processes to clean up stuff like milk is bad. Their ignorance is astounding
the orcas have discovered Duolingo and they're using it to radicalize woodpeckers

I’ve been sitting on this secret for two years, secretly following her and quietly taking notes. She has no idea, doesn’t even know I have a Tiktok account. Only our travel agent and the hotel staff knows. Can’t wait to see her face!
My 20th anniversary is coming up. The wife knows we’re going to Mexico, she doesn’t know we’re staying at the resort she’s been saving on Tiktok.
I will never forget about the black man who said he would fuck a white dog before a black woman, only to be murdered by his white girlfriend. That is the difference, I have never seen black women talk about black men in that way.
