I have talked before on this platform about my struggles with mental illness
Sorry, were you hoping for a dramatic follow-up?
It's ok because I'm not a real person, once you get 20k followers they take your soul away
All of you are doing the right thing. You are making the world a better place

This story reminds me of an incident in which we had to fill out an army-wide survey about sexual harassment

The first time, we filled it out honestly

About a week later all the women in the unit got called during lunch break for an assembly

google.com/amp/s/www.vox.…
The Sergeant Major screamed at us as we sat there, hungry, for about 30 minutes. It seems we'd filled the forms out wrong. Many of us were clearly lying to make the unit look bad

Then he gave us the survey to fill out again

Seems there was no sexual harassment problem after all
And that's how the 508th STB, 4BCT, 82nd Airborne Division solved their sexual harassment problem overnight

Same shit everywhere

Never trust an in-house survey

The weird racism of menthol cigarette bans, tear gas is bad for you, the Portland Police Bureau's budget is even worse, and a deep dive into Biden's jingoistic speech

Check out the latest newsletter:

getrevue.co/profile/lauraj… Joe Biden giving a speech a...
I'm especially proud of the Joe Biden analysis, which goes pretty deep into things

The speech was not leftist so let's get that out of the way

A lot of his outlined policy changes would materially help people. Baby steps in the right direction are still steps
Biden also outlined his strategy for dealing with Republicans which can be summed up as "compromise with me today or we’ll ram it down your fucking throats tomorrow, you assholes, you obstructionist jerks"

It's a good way to sell noncompromise as reasonable to the general public

As you may have noticed, I am no longer covering on-the-ground lefty events in Portland

The Portland left has made it clear that press is unwelcome generally

Also, I have been fashjacketed and do not feel safe, especially after what happened to @PDocumentarians
I'm perfectly willing to risk my personal safety against the police or the far right, as my record shows

I'm not willing to risk it by attending left-wing protests where my presence is now seen as exploitative or menacing

This should be good news for all who see it that way
If you follow this account for the live-tweets, you'll have to wait until I move to NYC for any chance of that happening again (65 days)

If you follow it for the writing and/or analysis and/or videos and/or weirdness, good news: all that shit's here to stay forever

This is a take that's going to upset people but it's a conversation we need to have so here goes:
Not-Black people should always, ALWAYS be quiet and listen to Black voices when it comes to the experience of being Black, lived oppression, the kinds of solutions that can move us forward into a more equitable world, what Black communities need to thrive, etc.
The fact that only Black people know what it is to be Black in America, and that we should listen without speaking on that subject, does NOT mean Black people are omniscient in every area of activism or life and should never be questioned

Thinking otherwise is a form of racism
