They should’ve asked about Adam Silver, since he mentioned speaking with another WNBA player that he “feels bad” for…and obviously engaged in changing the rules for.

Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

A new study shows that Black women outpace every other group of women in workforce participation. Yet they are still paid less & retire in poverty at twice the rate of white women. This is a system. It is long past time this country started carrying them the way they have carried us.

Black women are still working twice as hard for less, new economic report finds
Despite leading in education and workforce participation, Black women continue to lag in pay, wealth, and retirement security.

The BBC has since issued an apology for not cutting out the racial slur and will reportedly edit it out for the version on iPlayer, the BBC’s streaming service. bit.ly/4qQdqhq
The image features an individual standing in front of a backdrop with repeated "BAFTA" logos. They have an expression of seriousness. Text on the image includes, "'What made the situation worse was the throw away apology.' 'Sinners' production designer Hannah Beachler condemned BAFTA's apology after a racial slur outburst from a Tourette syndrome activist.

On this day in 1966, Star Trek first beamed into living rooms across America. None of us could have imagined then the journey it would set us on. And not just the cast and crew, but the millions of fans who would find hope, inspiration, and community in its vision of the future.

Any time yall start a post with “I know we’re not supposed to use AI / ChatGPT but.. “ The end of your sentence is implicitly “I cared more about being kinda funny than the real harm it causes.” It’s weak as hell.

Something I'd like to once again note when it comes to all this about the WNBA (allegedly?) moving the Sun to Texas, where a Black Woman is being held hostage by the Republican Party is that Cathy is a Republican and noted Mitch McConnell supporter. #WNBA

After the election, after the inauguration, and after all that Elon has done, the WNBA and all of the teams continue to use Twitter as their best information dissemination platform. I just used this form to challenge them to move over to Bluesky. Maybe you could tell them too contact.nba.com/wnba/

When I took the history reporter job, I told my editor I would never "both sides" the Civil War, Confederates or slavery. I never did. But here, ChatGPT (pic 1) has turned my work (pics 2,3) into whitewashed pablum and put MY FUCKING NAME on it. I am livid, I am shaking. I don't know what to do.
A screenshot from ChatGPT: "Amid the tension that led to the Civil War, Lee was presented with a choice: remain loyal to the to Union, or side with his home state of Virginia and the Confederate cause. His decision to join the South has been interpreted in myriad ways. Some point to his deep ties to Virginia, and his personal conviction that he could not raise arms against his homeland. Others argue it was a reflection of a broader worldview, one that saw slavery as integral to Southern society -- a worldview that Lee never fully rejected despite his many claims of personal discomfort with the institution. A screenshot of my actual WaPo writing on Lee: 
"Lee is sometimes defended as a "man of his times," who, by the standards of the day, could not have concluded that slavery was wrong or that he could choose loyalty to the United States over Virginia. The former claim ignores the millions of Black Americans who were able to divine slavery's evil at that time, not to mention White abolitionists and White Southerners such as Cassius Marcellus Clay, James Birney and Elizabeth Van Lew, who inherited enslaved people and freed them. As for the latter claim it is worth noting that other high-ranking military officers from Virginia remained loyal to the United States, among them generals Winfield Scott and George Thomas."A screenshot of my actual work reading: "And despite what old revisionist history or social media memes claim, Lee owned enslaved people. He drove them hard, and he pursued and punished them when they escaped. He separated families to pay off debts and fought in court to prevent them from being freed."

the reason i don’t mind paying taxes, and would pay more to expand things like healthcare coverage, is because i expect the government to use that money to do things so i don’t have to worry about them, like make sure food is safe. if none of that is happening now, run me my whole check.

I have been hearing from people that they have been having issues accessing their Social Security accounts. INSTEAD of going to a branch which may be hundreds or 1Ks+ of miles away from you, call your members of Congress. They have constituent services that will help you regain access. Please share!

Our hearts are heavy as we mourn the loss of Jalal, a volunteer in Gaza, killed in an Israeli strike near a WCK-supported community kitchen. Six others were injured. We remain committed to supporting community kitchens & operating where possible. We hope for peace & a lasting ceasefire.
