Good Night White Pride! An Interview With Harlon Jones

From Antifa International  Many people are familiar with the Good Night White Pride logo - a silhouette image of an anti-racist kicking a neo-nazi in the head.  But few people know that the image comes from a photo taken at a 1998 counterprotest of a KKK rally in Ann Arbor, Michigan.  Last year, we ran an...

Journalists, I am begging you:

Organize.

Tap your networks, figure out what collective action you are going to take against Musk, and then do it.

He may not realize it, but his platform lives & dies by your participation.

You may be under attack, but you have the cards.

Where are all you sexy people at? I want to connect with #sexworkers, #sex #educators, #sexologists, sex theorists, people into #kink, #spanking and #BDSM, #erotica writers, sex #bloggers and #porn makers. I miss the #adult community on the birdsite and am determined to find or create a new one here. Please boost this post to help me find mah people!

I've been on the Internet literally since before there was an Internet per se (that is, on the original DOD ARPANET that became the Internet). I've been thinking about Musk's actions over the last few days. I cannot think of any instance of any Internet-related firm ever attempting a broad *** censorship of their users' *** ability to post freely available, legal information, including discussion and links to such information, except ... that in so doing, Musk joins the ranks of Russia, China, North Korea, Iran, and other countries that criminalize all manner of information as part of their repressive regimes.

Musk has now bound himself to them and their philosophies, and any advertisers, firms, or other organizations doing business with him in any way, regarding any of his companies, will be doing the same by association going forward.

As it's #BlackFriday, and there are so many people joining today, I'd like to celebrate the beautiful record of #BlackExcellence that is Summer of Soul... (Or, When the Revolution Could Not Be Televised).

Breaking Politico:

The Jan. 6 Committee is preparing to vote on urging the Justice Department to pursue at least three criminal charges against Trump — including insurrection. Among the charges that subcommittee proposes for Trump: 18 U.S.C. 2383, insurrection; 18 U.S.C. 1512(c), obstruction of an official proceeding; and 18 U.S.C. 371, conspiracy to defraud the United States government. https://www.politico.com/news/2022/12/16/jan-6-committee-trump-criminal-referral-00074411

Jan. 6 panel to vote on urging DOJ to prosecute Trump on at least 3 criminal charges

The report that the select panel is expected to consider Monday afternoon reflects some recommendations from a subcommittee that evaluated potential referrals.

While out on a run, dude passes me in his car—doing about 35mph, window rolled down, white cuffed arm out the window. Dude was wearing so much cologne, I could smell it for 1/4 mile.

Black History Freedom & Love https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ry73zLkF6ZY

Watch this amazing segment from the otherwise paywalled Masterclass—and stay with it, past the harsh reality to reach the Black love. Let that amazing wellspring of strength and joy nourish us all as we fight white supremacy.

I highly recommend the entire series; it's essential viewing for anyone white in the United States.

@zaythelegend Hi! I’m an attorney out of the Midwest US. My interest outside of law include gardening for wildlife and watching bad movies. This weekend I plan on making some balms for my grandmother using some ingredients from this year’s garden :)
