"I didn't know she was black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn black and now she wants to be known as black," he said at the National Association of Black Journalists convention in Chicago on Wednesday.

I guess I never did an intro..

Hey, I'm Tim, a Scottish Fractal/3D artist with a love of the outdoors & photographing what I find there.

I just found my old periodic table shoes after being missing for about ten years and the disappointed look on my husband's face implies he's the one who hid them.

One week after we lost his little sister, we have lost our oldest boy, Darian. At fourteen years old, he had a good, long life.

He was the sweetest, kindest and best-behaved cat I have ever met. We never had to tell him off or get on to him. He was polite, asking for pets with a soft "I hope I'm not bothering you" kind of mew. He was an amazing brother to his siblings, and a loving baby to me and Angela. We were so lucky to have known him, and we're going to miss him so very, very much.

“It keeps you from doing your work. It keeps you explaining, over and over again, your reason for being.”

I'm British so have never heard of a "DEI hire". They make it sound like it's about hiring people that are not qualified, so I can only assume it stands for Don Jr, Eric, and Ivanka.

Americans will do anything to avoid learning the metric system

"a big turnout for Kamala will help Democrats in House, Senate, and state legislatures win their races. That will allow President Harris to pass meaningful legislation to help the American people—including legislation to reform the Supreme Court and enact nationwide protections for reproductive liberty. It doesn’t get any better than that!

We must turn enthusiasm into votes. We can do that!"

Questioning if Harris is "Black or Indian" is just pure racism.

Trump can be German, Scottish, American with a side of whatever he wants.

But you can't be Creole, Hawaiian, Caribbean, East African etc etc, you can only be Black. It's binary.

Purely racist.

Harris is multiracial and Trump is multiracist.

And another headline, this one from Huffington Post right now:

@mastodonmigration WaPo was definitely worse in my opinion, especially the one that tries to paint it as something Harris has to deal with. It’s something Trump did that will damage him in this election and that should be the coverage.

I am tired of saying it but the Washington Post should not be relied on for political news or information. A couple of good articles here and there aren’t enough.

Texaco sounds like what you'd call a Tex-Mex restaurant.

There are MILLIONS of Americans living abroad. We need to find them and get them voting. Only about 9% of #USExpats #vote, usually because they don’t know they can.

Help us to get the word out!

I can't Karaoke this song without crying.
I always break down and crumble.
I guess with age comes empathy and compassion.
If you're lucky. 🥰
