Commentary. Analysis. Opinion.
I was about to share a TV segment about the #Algeria protests but it was all Men. Men. Men. Woman.
And the only reason a woman was on screen was because she was the anchor. Do better @dw_arabic
But the 👆🏽obvs applies to others. Still. Today.

I am from #Egypt, the #3 jailer of journalists in the world. On Monday a photojournalist was released after almost 6yrs in prison for photographing something the regime didn’t want seen. How is that different from this? 1st you “track” then you detain. nbcsandiego.com/news/local/Sou…
A US photojournalist was questioned because she is photographing something the US administration does not want seen.
ICYMI: the Department of Homeland Security announced this last year and when some of us called it fascist, some of you yelled at us that we didn’t know what “fascist” meant.

This is outrageous.
1. She was in custody. You can’t consent when you’re in police custody
2. How was that not always the law in NY or anywhere?

It’s a disgrace that this hasn’t always been the case:

“Legislation is currently working its way through the New York legislature to make it clear that people in law enforcement custody are not capable of consensual sex.” #NYPD #NYC
AND they tried to shut her up: “They came with nine cops to intimidate her and her mom, to discourage them from coming forward and reporting the rape and sex assault” nypost.com/2017/11/23/cop… h/t @ismat

Taraji is about to turn 50. I will be 52 this summer. I promised myself a half-sleeve when I turned 50 and I still owe it to myself. So for now, a new book coming out soon after my birthday will do. Go pre-order it! #7NecessarySins
Still must decide: right arm half-sleeve or left arm?
I’ve also got this via the incandescent June Jordan on my right got arm

#ANALYSIS Much has been said about young people running for various offices across the country - Ready Or Not?

While a host of them are simply making up the numbers, 3 have stood out remarkably and could win a seat each in the National Assembly. @BankyW @GRVlagos @RinsolaAbiola
We therefore will do a brief analysis of their chances tomorrow as they head to the polls.
@GRVlagos is a 35 year old Architect who ran for Ikeja local government chairmanship two years ago and lost. He is running for a seat in the Senate in the Largest senatorial district in Nigeria #Lagoswest on the platform of @OfficialPDPNig .

#Analysis: Ending #BirthrightCitizenship for the children of illegal immigrants and birth tourists has long been the crown jewel of pro-sovereignty immigration reformers. It's about interpreting the #14Amendment of the #Constitution correctly. Thread.
First, to quote the great Ann Coulter, it's laughable to think that any Founder, Framer or Amender of the Constitution intended for American citizenship to be the prize in a game of Red Rover with the Border Patrol. We're a nation of laws, after all.
Second, #14Amendment was one of three emancipation-related amendments to the #Constitution, designed to grant citizenship to former slaves and their children. The congressional record shows nobody believed 600,000 Americans died to give Congress the chance to open the borders.

If all of your analyses on gender are one reading from a queer theory 101 class; + your viewpoint epistemology as someone who has been trans for like... a year...

it's just wise to like, pause and consult others before spending time and money on saying your take to 251k people
Like, i can see *in* that video a better analysis that I and others have approached after years transition

but because she's trying to make it after *one year* with *little research* it's *so* poorly formulated, poorly expressed, poorly executed, and just comes off offensive
like, especially when your transition is in the public eye, your viewpoint epistemology is going to be wildly skewed in terms of what might be the case for like, other people

Here’s a thread about insecure little boys with big platforms who wet their sailor suits when a woman dares to express an opinion.
Economics is one of the last hyper-masculinised academic disciplines, and it’s overrun by crusty conservative men unable to see past their own vested interests.
When a woman with *gasp* an opinion, like @albericie, dares to speak against their “conventional economic wisdom” any pretence that they possess critical thinking abandons them and they start to channel their daddies telling mummy to shut up make dinner.

A Thread for Men: When your #woman is #emotional, #crying or #stressed out, do not hold it against her. One of the lies of #feminism is that men and women are the same, including that we should process #emotions the same way. Reject the lie. Listen and learn in the posts below.
#Women have much greater #hormonal fluctuations each month than #men do. Simply put, a woman's thought life and #emotions are more prone to high highs, and low lows. This isn't a "design flaw" but rather how #God made a #woman to be in touch with the needs of small #children.
Nothing is more short-sighted as a #man than viewing a #woman as an "overly emotional" or "flawed" version of a man's thought process or #emotions. A woman that does not let her emotions out will become very #passiveaggressive, #depressed or #angry. Your job is to be an #outlet.
