I have some health happenings that need tending to very soon, and I currently don’t have any cushion financially that makes me feel comfortable proceeding with that process. I don’t have the capacity for how dehumanizing mutual aid can be, so I am instead trying to figure things out.

But for most of the service providers I speak to, that’s our reality. So I share this not to pity market or beg, but to remind people of the value of our work, our lived experiences, and our expertise. Our passion, our insight, and our care.👇🏾

This isn’t the reality for all service providers, let alone all Black service providers. I’m sure some are doing fantastic, and I adore that for them and hope they continue with that level of abundance and booked and busy!!

Is now a bad time to say that outside of bursts of business for some because of Juneteenth or BHM, it’s hard for Black service providers to get booked? That we’re having people devalue our work and haggle our prices? That many of us are living contract to few and far between contract? 👇🏾

If you’re still wearing a mask, thank you. Please know you’re not alone. Many of us still mask, test and isolate when sick. Being the lone masker can be difficult, but your long term health is worth it. As a high risk, immunocompromised person… I see and appreciate you.

🧵Lauren Boebert had sex with three of her staffers. Two of them were women. Her sex partners were Clarisse Navarro, Jeffrey Small and Raven Finnegan. Navarro's husband Jace Ratzlaff: "I assumed this would eventually surface. I’ll have no further comment on this topic.”

Sam Altman, Elon Musk, and Dario Amodei calling for AI development to slow down—but not, you know, just doing that at the companies they control—while Donald Trump is president smells like an attempt at regulatory capture.

As a Black American, I have always felt that the primary was my real election. Because at the end of the day, America is going to America. So for a candidate to switch up AFTER the primary? To advocate for my harm after agreeing to help me? That is a transgression deserving of punishment.

So while authors and publishers are arguing about divvying up the settlement money, Anthropic have got away with mass theft. Whatever they pay out is simply a cost of business. The shit machine they built with that theft still exists despite a complete lack of consent and blatant law-breaking.
