LANGUAGE: It’s enslaved persons, not “slaves”. We are people who were ENslaved. When you say “enslaved”, you make clear that someone else did this to us. When you say “slave” you speak the language and mindset of the people who did this to us. This is important. It is not semantics. #history #language #enslavedpeople #Black #Mastodon #words

Critics say Elon Musk has been asleep at the wheel lately with Tesla, but he said not to worry because it's a completely safe, self-driving company.

Today the U.S. House passed (225-201) the $1.7 trillion omnibus budget spending bill for FY 2023 which began in October. Govt shutdown averted. Here is the 4,126 page omnibus spending bill. #politics #Mastodon https://bit.ly/3vaVT9t

@jaykuo woah great article and great insight into the background of jan6 investigations.

Cassidy Hutchinson's testimony continues to light the Jan. 6 investigation ablaze, this time over suborning perjury. Lawyers reading the transcripts have their mouths agape. Here's why.

We are told that we are divided.
We could be.
We could not be.
We are.
Or we are not.
Or we are not as divided as we are led to believe.

My question is: if we are indeed divided, who is doing the dividing?

BREAKING: Here is the 845-page final report on the January 6, 2021 terrorist attack, *just* released by the Jan 6 Cmte. https://bit.ly/3jjOfqt #JAN6 #January6thCommittee #Mastodon #politics

This report was brought to you by YOU. If you the voter had not voted for a Democratic House in 2018 and 2020 and Senate—this report wouldn’t exist. VOTE. https://bit.ly/3BVjYoh #JAN6 #January6thCommittee #politics #USA

After reading Cassidy Hutchinson's testimony, it's hard not to conclude that Mark Meadows is in deep legal doodoo. I know that's not a legal term, but it's apt.

The question is, with so much exposure, will Meadows flip on Trump? Perhaps he has already. We haven't heard much from him at all for some time now.

Please remember to block accounts that spout foolishness. Trolls must be muted, blocked and ignored.

Like Malcolm X, Nina Simone was a passionate activist and dedicated to the Black liberation struggle. She posed in this photo very intentionally as an homage to Malcolm. 🖤🙏🏿 #BlackFriday #BlackMastodon #Mastodon

I've been told that The Guardian has suffered a "serious IT incident" which is affecting access to all its offices.

Staff are being told to work from home, and not to use VPN to log in to any systems... :(

Wishing the Guardian IT team well, especially at this time of year.
