Important to keep an eye on here in TX as the GOP does everything in their power to nullify blue voters, cities, and districts.

10 Threaded Spouts
She can't say what every black women are thinking - racism creates doubts about her competence. We're supposed to pretend the racism doesn't bother us and never give it air or light, lest "colorblind" white people accuse you of "playing the race card." If she did, she and Joe are OUT. 🧵

Ten times America has failed Black women

The criminal shit is telling us exactly what he’s going to do if he wins the election. If Trump ever gains the Presidency again, our democracy will cease to exist. I repeat, our key job is to protect democracy.

Tubbyville and all of MAGA/GQP have a warped sense of masculinity. His idiotic response about the military and poetry shows his ignorance.

"Ho’s article is compelling and depressing. And I think it also subtly highlights how the Times has used anti-trans coverage not just to hurt trans people, but also to silence and discipline its own labor force—and especially younger and marginalized workers."

Okay, I decided a thing. From now instead of saying “red states,” I’m going to say “republican-oppressed states.” The hyphen may be dropped, but the word choice will remain, because it’s the truth. I hope others here will join me in this effort to change the narrative. #PleaseEcho

It’s not just creative folks that are making Spoutible their new home, but small businesses and organizations too.
Today, I’m highlighting just one such business in my series of lesser-known accounts that are worthy of earning some Spoutible love.

Josef Konrad @JosefKonradSmall businesses and orgs are slowly making their way here, which I believe shows faith in what @cbouzy is building.
