Volodymyr Sirin, a civilian, talented woodcarver from Izyum.

The Russians cut off one of his arms and a leg, set him on fire, shot in face, left in forest.

Black Lives Matter.

We should not know about Keenan Anderson. He should be alive, and teaching today.

His death was a brutal form of lynching. If you’ve seen the body cam footage, you know the absolutely hideous and unacceptable violence he endured.

I find the lack of coverage from mainstream media to be repulsive.

A society that allows these incidents of murder is not a civilized society.

Apparently, there is a new #TwitterExodus wave.

In case you see this, new friend:

3. Write hashtags with a capital letter for each word #LikeThis
4. Consider using the content warning feature more often than you would on other sites.
5. Don't be a dick.

Hi everyone!

This year is off to a bad start. I bought a picture book called 2,023 Cats and there are only 12 pages in it.

SciFi Twerking

As Carl lay there thinking about all of the life choices that led him to this point, his biggest regret was trusting that stupid cowboy and his space man friend.

While the world wakes up from the sun's rays. Ukraine wakes up to the sounds of air raids and explosions. As always, russia is at war with the civilian population. Someone was left homeless again today😔

To all the white evangelicals; Jesus was a Jewish person of color. Snap out of your delusion.

@CiaoBruno @ScottSoCal @Tbsa Right Wingers would call him a shitlib while using his words to fundraise.

Tragic.

Taxing billionaires isn't the answer to everything.

But it's a bloody good start.

It's just outrageous we have to be 'presentable' on a Friday WFH.

I still have pillow lines on my face. No one needs to see this.

KQED News just confirmed with Cal DSS that if you're on food stamps and you lost food due to storm damage or power outages, you can get replacement funds on your EBT card. Sacramento Food Bank was the first to talk about this, and KQED called DSS to confirm.

Call your case manager within 10 days of the loss.

It’s Friday! Please share something good that happened to you this week.

If you don't know this story, you should read up on it.

Meek Mill’s case is a prime example of a racially biased judicial system. That the "judicial" system can be wielded like a weapon and that the system is wielded against non-white people is something we as a nation need to expose and deal with. It's not okay. It's not right, and it shouldn't be excused or justified by anyone.

This was part of a series of pardons issued by outgoing Pennsylvania governor Tom Wolf. It matters.

If one person punches another person in the face and says it's OK because punching is their shared culture, ask the person who's been punched if they agree.

The Taliban thugocracy has responded to the Afghanistan chapter of our new World Report by saying universal human rights are not wanted in Afghanistan.

I’d be willing to bet at least half the population thinks otherwise – the half called women and girls, whom the Taliban treat as sub-human animals.
