From ancient to abstract, this one sure got around.

Japanese one made no sense to me until I finally saw the “sale sale/sasa lele” version. セール　セール。 But then it’s a meme so it has to be misspelled?  🤷‍♂️

Poet Taylor Steele captures the problem with appropriating Black slang.

In her poem “AAVE” (which stands for African-American Vernacular English) Taylor Steele explains why appropriation of Black slang is the worst.  African-American culture is being popularized on a daily basis and while Black people are judged and mistreated for using something they came up with ages ago, White people come off as cool and original when they use it.

OH LORD...”Trump aides investigated over claims they stole G7 goodie bags”

@eaudrey35​ is there no low for them? 

US State Department is probing allegations that Trump-appointed aides stole expensive gifts

The US Department of State is investigating allegations that Donald Trump-appointed aides stole goodie bags meant for foreign dignitaries attending the 2020 G7 summit which was later cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

A New York Times investigation revealed that expensive gifts, intended for foreign leaders who were supposed to attend the summit at Camp

The missing bags included “leather portfolios, pewter trays and marble trinket boxes emblazoned with the presidential seal” or signatures of former President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump, The Times said.

A spokesperson for the Office of the Inspector General declined to comment when Insider asked to confirm the existence of the probe.

In all, Politico reported in August that the department took inventory of the gift vault after the transition and found that at least 20 “types” of missing items from the vault, with the exact number unknown. The number of missing items stands in contrast to the Bush and Obama administrations, after which there were no items missing from the vault or unaccounted for, The Times said.

The department’s other investigations into still missing items include an inquiry into a $5,800 bottle of Japanese whisky intended for Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, which Pompeo said he never received, and a 22-karat gold coin from Vietnam meant for former national security advisor John Bolton, The Times said.

Queenie (2019)

Queenie Jenkins is a 25-year-old Jamaican British woman living in London, straddling two cultures and slotting neatly into neither. She works at a national newspaper, where she’s constantly forced to compare herself to her white middle class peers. After a messy break up from her long-term white boyfriend, Queenie seeks comfort in all the wrong places…including several hazardous men who do a good job of occupying brain space and a bad job of affirming self-worth.

As Queenie careens from one questionable decision to another, she finds herself wondering, “What are you doing? Why are you doing it? Who do you want to be?”—all of the questions today’s woman must face in a world trying to answer them for her.

With “fresh and honest” (Jojo Moyes) prose, Queenie is a remarkably relatable exploration of what it means to be a modern woman searching for meaning in today’s world.Age Range: Adult
