You guys, the White House accidentally ordered 10x the amount of Porta-Potties that they needed. The lawn is just acres of Porta-Potties. It’s all fenced off and you can’t see, but I took this photo through a hole in the fence netting.

I'm not a sociologist but I've got almost 50 years of personal and observed experience and let auntie tell you something: a woman's best traits, a woman who deals romantically with men, that is, do not belong to her

I'll never get used to the people who sincerely, sincerely think Black people are supposed to be an inexhaustible fount of grace that never needs to be replenished. That's an impossible condition. It's impossible. You're asking for and expecting the impossible.

Some of us didn't hop online in the 90s or the 2000s to get rich and famous, man. Some of us hopped online in the 90s and 2000s 'cause it was FUN to chat with people all over the world... for free! Baby, we grew up when it cost a zillion dollars to call long distance! We had pen pals at school!

When disabled people are killed by family members or caregivers, true crime often reframes the violence as “mercy” or caregiver stress, shifting sympathy away from the victim. Disability justice advocate @vilissathompson.bsky.social explains this narrative on B*tch, Listen. 🎧 New • Jan. 29, 2026

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

I need people to wrap their minds around the fact that here in Minneapolis, ICE broke the window of a vehicle yesterday, pepper sprayed the occupants, and arrested them, and shot another observer in the face today, and OBSERVERS ARE STILL GOING OUT TO PROTECT THEIR NEIGHBORS AT MASSIVE PERSONAL RISK

I know that primarying Dems is the call to action for the moment, but why can’t we recall them too when they vote against their constituents wishes or ignore public outcry? Their manipulation in ending the shutdown for a pinky promise shows them working around primaries.

Got an email from Ancestry that my plan is renewing soon and I think any reparations plan MUST include access to free, professional genealogy. I shouldn't have to give so much money and effort to do this work because of this country's deliberate erasure of my ancestors' humanity

Someone shared a TT of a woman encouraging everyone to boycott the holidays re: the government shutdown and the idea is really attractive to me, but based on the conversations I've been having with people in my life, I don't know if the country as a whole is ready for even that small of a sacrifice

Starting November 1st, SNAP benefits are being cut, leaving millions of people with limited or no access to food. If you are able to help, help. Food banks also take cash donations, which allow them to fill the banks with what they know is most needed. We are truly all we have.
Screenshot of my post from threads:

portia.noir • › Mutual Aid 2h
If you are in a position to do so, now is a fantastic time to donate some non perishables to your local food bank.
It's also a good time to check in with people around you to see if their needs are being met, and how you can help make sure that continues.

Boycott thoughts that nobody asked for, but I’m sharing anyway. The boycott is a start. It’s also a good time to really examine what’s needed for future movements.
Screenshot saying: Final boycott thoughts: we need to let go of the sense of urgency that has us wanting to "stick it to man" right away, and focus on what we can do long term.
That means knowing who's around you and who will need support during boycotts. Not everyone can boycott the same way, and with planning, intention, and execution, there can be support for those folks.
We also need to be wary of people looking to capitalize off of something that is supposed to be anti-capitalism. Ask where your money is going. Ask what it's for. Make sure it's being used to advance a movement, not simply line some pockets.

We've seen snippets of racism but it was loud AF in the last episode. The mirror scene in particular (when taken in context with the "model minority"(MM) myth & much of what happens in WS systems to keep ppl in line) was infuriating. #Severance

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options. Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

Post by professor_crunk that says It's not ending DEl, or focusing on merit. It's
re-segregation. RE-SEGREGATION. That is what it is, and that is what we should call it. DEI puts us on defense. Re-segregation puts them on defense. Defend why you want to separate society by color again. Defend why you think having Black people causes plane crashes. Defend why you think white people deserve vaccines earlier and more often than Black people. Let's be explicit. Thanks to my historian baes for calling for this more precise language.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO
