If you're scrambling to find a last minute Christmas present for me (because giving gifts to internet strangers is a totally normal thing that everyone does) please check out my Patreon. I use these funds to write more of the facts that you maybe know and hopefully love.

But if you'd rather use the $12 to buy yourself a burrito in 2023, please do that. I mean it. Say what you will about me, but I am a man who respects a good burrito. Enjoy every bite. You've earned it.

Looking for a β€œBody by Jake” shirt except it’s one size too small and says β€œBody by Cake”

We do this silly little tradition on the Eve of an Eve, we call it an Evil, on this day we get to make one selfish wish just for ourselves. I would love to hear your selfish wishes if you feel like sharing.

Mine:

I really hope I can go on a week long beach vacation this coming year!

Happy Christmas Evil!

I don’t know with certainty what my own definition of happiness is, but I’m 100% sure I know what the dog’s is.

After reading Cassidy Hutchinson's testimony, it's hard not to conclude that Mark Meadows is in deep legal doodoo. I know that's not a legal term, but it's apt.

The question is, with so much exposure, will Meadows flip on Trump? Perhaps he has already. We haven't heard much from him at all for some time now.

"It's not a war on Christmas," I growl, pausing to spit tobacco and lock my rifle scope on an elf, "if those little fucks shot first."

This is how the birth of the #NHS was announced in 1948.

The Tories had tried & failed to stop the introduction of free, universal public healthcare.

They've spent the last 12 years undermining & hollowing out the NHS through underfunding & creeping privatisation.

Black Twitter's expected demise would make it harder to publicize police brutality and discuss racism

How do we use #Mastodon to solve this? How can we organize information feeds so that we can bridge between here and where the "official" account are and should be pressured?

If there was another #Ferguson today, how would elected representatives be pressured from here?

How do we make #fediverse viral to mainstream TV?

In homes and schools around Bosnia, youngsters this December have been preparing gift boxes they hope will put a smile on the faces of their peers living through war in Ukraine β€” just as such gifts did for many of their parents a generation ago. apnews.com/article/sarajevo-ch

The RNC knew that then-President Trump’s claims about the election were false but continued to raise money off them anyway, the Jan. 6 report says. nbcnews.to/3jfoxU0

Bayard Rustin (1912-1987) worked closely with Martin Luther King Jr. for decades as a planner of the Montgomery bus boycott and as the primary architect of the 1963 March on Washington. A confidant and adviser, he introduced MLK to Gandhi’s principles of nonviolent resistance. His role in the civil rights movement was largely relegated to the background, however, because he was gay. In the 1980s, he became a public advocate for gay and other human rights. #BlackFriday #LGBTQ

So, I'm finding out the hard way that if you start a new Mastodon server, nobody can find you.

This is a shameless request for some boosts so some of the bigger instances see me.

How about this Christmas you try to worry less about getting what you want, and more about wanting what you already have?

To Recap:
β€’72% of GA WW voted for Kemp over Abramsβ€”a Black woman
β€’57% of NC WW voted for Budd over Beasleyβ€”a Black woman
β€’57% of FL WW voted for Rubio over Demingsβ€”a Black woman

But right now as Black women on TikTok follow other BW for solidarityβ€”WW are outraged b/c apparently that's unfair to WWπŸ€¦πŸ½β€β™‚οΈ

Imagine denying incredible BW access to the halls of power, but feeling discriminated against because you're not centered in a conversation on a social media app. smh we have work to do y'all.

My dog came back in from the evening’s bio breaks in record time tonight. I’m sure that had nothing to do with it being 16 degrees outside.
