December 15 2019 - The UFC’s biggest MAGA piece of shit (other than president Dana White) Colby Covington just had a title fight against Nigerian immigrant champion Kamaru Usman. During the fight Colby got his jaw broken, got knocked out in the last round and then proceeded to literally run away during the champ’s victory announcement. [video]/[video]/[video]
“This fight is greater than me just beating up a guy that’s talking a lot of shit. This fight means a lot to me, so when I get a chance to put my hands on this guy let’s just know it’s the wrath of every single immigrant that has stepped foot in this country.” - Kamaru Usman
hey guys! here’s some fun things i learned from this article about Dion Diamond:
he did these sit-ins by himself. like idk about you, but i always thought of sit-ins as organized by groups, what kind of bravery does it take, man
he didn’t tell anyone about it, like he was no glory-seeker about this. his parents didn’t even know until reporters started calling them up like “hey, did you know your son is in jail?
when someone called the cops he’d skedaddle out the back door although he was sent to prison multiple times
the last time he got arrested was in Baton Rouge, and the cops were so sick of him that they told inmates they’d put in a good word for anyone who gave Diamond a hard time. (the inmates didn’t take the bait.)

Hear me out guys. I know why you’re pissed. But that goodbye, before Steve took the stones back… Bucky knew. They talked about it. I can guarantee they talked about it.
And when Bucky is ready, I think he’ll go back too. Or maybe he’ll choose not to. But it was planned between them. Bucky knew.
Messi’s reaction to Camp Nou chanting “TONTO!” (idiot/fool) at Espanyol goalkeeper Pau Lopez* after his mistake, which led to Rafinha’s goal (4-0)
*Note: Besides voicing the desire of him and his collegues to be the “heroes for Madrid”, and intentions to do “anything to ensure Barcelona wouldn’t win the league” before the match, Pau Lopez also intentionally stomped on Messi’s ankle in the previous Catalan derby:
Just because I was born here, I’m treated with some humanity. The deportees on the planes we stop aren’t so lucky
For most of the Stansted 15, the chance of jail is slim – including for me – but it could still happen. And so, I’m sat here writing among piles of things I may need in prison. Atop stacks of boxers, there are hastily purchased sets of toiletries. Next to them, reams of paper, stamps and pencils, ready to be folded into a duffel bag for the trip to Chelmsford crown court one week from today.
I’ve spent the last few weeks rehearsing goodbyes. Thinking of something to say to my four-year-old niece when I see her later this week, knowing it might be the last time for a while. I’ve thought about the things I’m going to say to my pals, the looks I’m going to share with my fellow defendants, the desperate hug I’ll share with my mum in the doorway to the court as we’re called in, both of us reassuring the other that it’s going to be OK, both of us knowing that the other may be lying. I think about all these things and more, and realise just how lucky I am.
In 2017, the UK held 27,000 people in indefinite immigration detention; 15% of these were taken in during routine Home Office appointments. In other words, 4,050 people attended an appointment one day, expecting to walk in, sign something to confirm their compliance and walk back out to their families and lives, but instead were whipped away without warning to be held indefinitely in a detention centre. On top of this, there are those who are grabbed from the streets, from their places of work or from their homes in the darkness of the night.
[..] Each of the goodbyes that I’ll have, I know that deep down they won’t be the last. Simply by virtue of my birthplace, I’ve been afforded the humanity of a goodbye. More than that though, I know that after this is all over, I’ll come back to the safety and security of those who love me. Whether it’s minutes, hours, weeks, months or years after that sentencing hearing starts, eventually I’ll be back home, writing, dancing and living. For most people who bear the brunt of the hostile environment, that’s not true. The future that awaits them is uncertain. It’s laced with pain, with the potential of violence, torture and death.
The fact that we live in a country that allows such a disparity in the execution of rights and freedoms is a stain on our society. It’s why we stopped that plane in March 2017 and why we must all keep fighting today – because freedom and humanity cannot be discriminatory. If only the privileged few enjoy it, then none of us truly do.
