    Toure Show x Sam Jay "I Feel Funny." is a great standup and an SNL writer. She’s hysterical—she’s behind the SNL sketch "Them Trumps."

    Boston is both progressive and regressive. It’s both the Red Sox, the last MLB team to sign a Black player, and the Celtics, the first NBA team to draft a Black player and the first to have a Black coach.

    "Essentially no obstruction" = obstruction.

    Trump just now: "no collusion, and, essentially, no obstruction." Essentially?

    I’m trying to watch Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile but I’m having a really hard time accepting Zac Efron as Ted Bundy.

    Between 1985 and 1994 Donald Trump lost $1.17 billion, more than any other American at the time, which means Donald Trump you are the biggest loser.

    I take Metformin for diabetes. I get it online because it's cheap w/insurance. I ran out and needed some ASAP. Price at Walgreens WITH insurance is $322. Without insurance, it's about 1200 for a month. I have access to research better prices but...THIS IS HOW POOR PEOPLE DIE.

    Seven hours of labor without medication or seeing a doctor. Every single person who ignored her cries for help is unfit to be responsible for the safety of Black women.

    As a white woman and a die-hard Sox fan, I am fully in support of those who stayed behind and have more respect for them than those willing to visit this joke in the White House

    That sounds good until you realize it doesn't mean anything. Can you give me an example of politics that does not tangibly intersect with the identities of both the politicians and the populace affected?

    Replying to @absurdistwords
    I dislike *all* identity politics and so loath the modern pomo left.

    Ooh. Better yet, can you show me a time in history when America was free of the "identity politics" now plaguing it? Name a year. Any year.

    Can anyone give me an example of non-identity politics? Or does it just mean "before we had to care about the opinion of anyone who wasn't a white man?"

    Breaking: SONG Leaders chain themselves to Durham County Jail entrance! We are stopping any more Black mothers and caregivers from being caged. Judge Evans and Judge Hudson refuse to eliminate bail so we will stop the caging ourselves.

    They should call it “I’ma Let You Finish."

    Wait, it looks like a Drake and Taylor Swift collab could be happening 👀

    Not one white player stood in solidarity with his team mates. Disgusting.

    Super disappointing that no white players stood in solidarity with Cora and the other players

    In 1945 the Red Sox gave Jackie Robinson and other Black players a tryout. Someone in the stands yelled, “Get those niggers off the field!” The Sox were the last team in baseball to sign a Black player and integrate the team. Today, all the white Red Sox players visit Trump.

    Don’t say "racially-charged” when you mean *racist*. When you don't call racism what it is, you help it hide.

    Trump’s racist divisiveness in one image: all of the white Red Sox players are going to the White House while all of the Black and brown players are not.

    The Boston Red Sox will visit the White House today, but manager Alex Cora and nearly a dozen players say they'll skip it. All of those bypassing the ceremony are players of color, while every white player on the team is expected to attend.
