What change in the algorithms made Black Twitter disappear? I follow many people who suddenly aren't showing up even though I read a lot of my timeline. They can't all be on a break? @YesSirJames, @eclecticbrotha, @BravenakBlog @AngryBlackLady @marcushjohnson
No, I looked, they are all tweeting. What the hell?
Is it my twitter flood of GOP predators somehow changing who comes up on my timeline? They would be tweeting about Kavanaugh, too, he's hostile to voting rights.
I am aware of realtwitter.com and will try to remember to use it, since that's easier than remembering the search hack, but I don't want a hack to see black twitter users I follow. I should not have to hack anything to see folks I follow.
Also, apologies to the many other great folks I follow left unmentioned. I just gave examples from the top of my head.

This is Phineas Parkhurst Quimby. When you wonder what happened to American Evangelicals and false spiritual leaders like Jerry Falwell, Jr. you should look to this guy. His teachings inform their faith more than the Bible, though they may not know it. He founded "New Thought"
One of Quimby's principal ideas was "Our mental states are carried forward into manifestation and become our experience in daily living" You can read more of his crap here.

Quimby was a traveling hypnotist and a bit of a huckster, but who knows, maybe he believed this stuff. Mary Baker Eddy took some of his ideas and founded Christian Science. The big thing he inflicted on us was the Law of Attraction. You probably hear it in many forms. 3/

Starting this book.
1/ Anderson begins by noting the media's conclusion that African Americans did not show up for Clinton in 2016 because they just weren't that into her is wrong. Republicans systematically made it more difficult for people of color to vote.
2/ 1890: The Mississippi Plan was passed to ensure "voter integrity." Combining poll taxes, literacy tests, voter registration rules, understanding clauses, and good character tests, the goal was to restrict the vote without using race explicitly

Dear @TheAtlantic
Enough with these bad takes on why the Democrats need to privilege white working class men.

What's wrong with this article? Just about every damn thing.
1) The author wrote an essay on Election Night, 2016, expanded it into a book and in the two years since then has not revisited her ideas critically despite deeper and more informed data on who voted and why.
She came to her conclusions and she is sticking to them and who cares what research is published by the National Academy of Sciences, she had insight on Election Night. pnas.org/content/115/19…

#Khashoggi Case Thread: I am going to ‘pin’ this post to use it as an ‘Info Thread’ on the #Khashoggi Case. I am in #Turkey. I’ve been following the case closely and with access to sources & experts here. This is a very ‘sensitive’ criminal case due to ‘Diplomatic Booby Traps’!!!
The Evidence Obtained Outside Cameras will not show any evidence of ‘tempering’ but other than license plates of dozens of diplomatic cars (Many with tinted windows-large trunks) with related time stamp, drivers Info, model/year: Nothing.
#Turkish Intel-Investigative Bodies also have the list of all Diplomatic & Private Saudi & “other significant’ Planes in #Turkey for the period of ‘interest.’ Many of the Target airports have their own security cameras & related evidence.

At @OSULawDEPC for the @DrugPolicyOrg @acluohio conference From Punishment to Public Health. I am going to tweet a lot about drug policy in the next two days. I know many people want to focus right now on the critical moment the nation is going through, feel free to mute me.
First speaker, opening keynote, is @SamuelKRoberts: “the War on Drugs has been fairly effective at what it was designed to do, which is to rationalize increasing inequality in health, education, labor, and opportunity in the post-1973 American economy.”
"This [the War on Drugs] was never about the drugs." @SamuelKRoberts drives home the point that the War on Drugs was backlash to the civil rights movement, anti-War movement, and an assault on poor people and people of color.

Many people upset over this, which I get. LGBTQ+ needs more representation; a lot of people looked up to them as such. I also see the value in this stance: male-male friendships can and tend to be toxic and bullying. I love to see platonic male relationships portrayed healthily.
As a young boy I was taught by other kids that teasing and bullying my male friends was how we bonded. It was painful. I’m very happy that there are male characters like Bert and Ernie that can tell each other “I love you” and mean it in a non-romantic way.
I don’t mean to imply this stance is better, or anything like that. All I mean to say is that this perspective too has value, and is not wholly reductive in representative quality.

#Twitter: what is it good for? How do you get good at it? And what will we do when it's gone? Today in pulp I share a few insights I've gleaned from almost five years of running this account.

Its about to get all meta...
Most people's tweets are a stream of consciousness, and Twitter itself is a daily flow of 500 million of these across the surface of your phone. You are currently looking at the collective unconscious of the planet...
And like any examination of the unconscious you will see things on Twitter that fascinate you and things that disgust you. This is part of its attraction: the filters of discourse become permeable, allowing the unsayable to leak across.
