On IG, Trump people are accusing Town & Country magazine of being the liberal media. Town. And. Country. 😭
They’ve been deleting these all day but goes for pages. Shut out of Twitter, many of the white nationalist blue lives internet crowd are just swarming any media they can find.
IG has been popping but so have innocuous Facebook pages like a hiking club I am in and all the lifestyle media pages. Everyday white identity politics ain’t having.
G&G can’t find any bland sloganeering to comment on so they’re skipping the whole inauguration altogether

This Tim McGraw and FGL colorblind song is the absolute worst of country.
You can tell how bad the song it was by how much some people loved it.
And seriously people, I get it. You know songs. But I said it is the worst of country — as in the genre.

I’m watching people on Newshour slow talk me about how Trump will be eschewed by financiers and the wealthy. I find a reason to use “Rolodex” again. A presidential Rolodex owned by a fool is worth a lot to many people.
That was literally the whole point. It’s the point for all of them, fwiw. But only a few of them will monetize it to the extent that this fool will do.
The best worst case scenario will be just suing him forever but no one has that kind of fortitude. He will be back on the party scene with the rest of them within a year.

Anybody else watching the PBS American Masters about Black women actresses?
“Julia” used to make my mother cry damn near every episode.
Bruh, “Sounder”. So we gonna run a movie and tv show marathon of some of this work? Just program a whole @netflix queue for me.

So, this is a...text. #HeauxTales open.spotify.com/album/5g9YhHW8…
The post-instagram, hot girl, plastic dolls, late stage/neo neo-liberal capitalism Black feminist tensions in an R&B register might be a first? First major anyway. I am admittedly old and cannot say for sure.
I literally do not know how Black women and femmes are surviving it. I worry.

I remember trying to pay my RAs more than $12 an hour and VCU HR pushing back hard. Said it would set a bad standard. From above and below.
I thought I remembered this #onhere:
My point is that our academic labor “market” is heavily subsidized and we act like it isn’t to feel more moral than our actions.
