Yep. My friends abroad asked me what was wrong with us when Trump was elected again. My answer was entrenched racism and sexism; too much normalization of criminality and crassness via social media, too much civic ignorance and illiteracy and too many unserious people.

Haitian rum and Cuban cigarillos…thinking of my brothers and sisters in the African diaspora and how the hell that the U.S. is putting them through didn’t have to happen…

I’ve recorded about 20 seconds of one or two selected songs to post on the gram or FB, but that’s it. It’s dumb to do otherwise, as no one is going to watch a poor quality, cell phone video any longer than that. A few seconds is enough time to seal the memory of having attended.

Agree. It’s inconsiderate and dumb. It’s dumb to spend good money to see a live concert, only to wind up on your phone the whole time. It’s double-dumb to record it to watch later as the point of going to a live performance is to see it live.🤷🏽‍♀️

Definitely political. Mixed with some insecurity. People who know they’re unqualified for their role usually try to prove themselves by fixing what’s not broken. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Yep…them upholding the constitutionality of the VRA is just symbolic BS with Section 2 gutted. But hey, people couldn’t vote for Clinton in 2016 because she said super predator in 1996 so here we are.🤷🏽‍♀️

Yep…media should be asking that question. People migrate from the global South due to centuries of their resources being looted by the West and their governments being unstable after being ruled by despots propped up by the West.

Absolutely! For struggling people working multiple jobs, this is an absolute godsend. All they have to do is open a can of veggies or make some mashed potatoes to go along with it, and they have a healthy meal without having to cook from scratch.

Yep. One of the J6 witnesses, aide Cassidy Hutchinson, said Trump told security to take the weapon detectors away because the rioters weren’t there to hurt him, and that it took forever for him to finally tell them to go home even as he witnessed the destruction.

Tonyaa Weathersbee @tonyaaj.bsky.social · 26/03/2026
It’s disgusting. What’s more disgusting is people like this Trumper have never bothered to study the real impacts of the U.S. embargo on Cuba and believe stuff like this will lead to “freedom” for the Cuban people.

He knows he’s unqualified. And he takes it out on women and POC by banning books about them and demoting them. He has nothing to offer but racism, sexism, homophobia and xenophobia. Kind of like his boss.

Tonyaa Weathersbee @tonyaaj.bsky.social · 18/03/2026
Yep. That’s the problem here. All his nominees lie to get confirmed and do the opposite.
