Stop trying to make "Latinx" happen, it's not gonna happen
I would pay good money for some woke grievance studies major from Ithaca College to go into Jesse Colunga's lowrider shop in East Austin and explain that they're now all Latinxes
Properly understood, this is a modern day version of colonialism / cultural imperialism, plied by a priestly caste imposing proper language on the benighted natives over whom they assume reign. The Woke Man's Burden, if you will.

*knock knock*

"Congratulations sir! Your city has been chosen as grand prize winner of a genuine National Football League team!"

"Huh, I didn't enter any contest. Why?"

I can't believe these whiney wuss quitters at the Olympics. Why, back when I was nearly co-captain of the JV bowling team in '83, we wouldn't DREAM of asking Coach Kramergesic to take a breather just because of a severed spinal cord or beheading
BREAKING: Uncle Rico drives van to Simone Biles's house, demands refund, launches into tale of how he toughed it out in the '82 Class 2-B state quarterfinals

I vehemently dispute Welch's "good person" slander

I'm actually a nasty old antisocial hermit IRL, but IDing old cars helps me control the symptoms. There are surprising therapeutic benefits to tweeting about stuff that brings you joy rather than stuff that brings you anger. Some of you should try it sometime
I don't know if IDing some rando's grandpa's 1946 Hudson counts as "making the world a better place," but it makes me feel like Albert Schweitzer compared to the average account on this godforsaken garbage site
