I fear a lot of people learned to take good care of library books as children and instead of internalizing "leave shared community items as you found them as much as possible, because other people will use them too" they internalized "printing and binding a book imbues it with sacred energy and if you dog-ear a mass-market paperback you're desecrating the entire concept of written language"

I haven’t been on this app in a while, but I know a Black man, Keith Porter, was murdered by ICE on New Year’s Eve (Rest in Power) in Cali. Just one of the countless Black people who’ve been murdered by ICE and other agents of the state.

I log back into this app and see the conversations around the white woman, Renee Good, who was just recently killed. And I can’t help but notice the stark difference in circulation of news and boosting of stories between both of them across this app…

Shit has BEEN happening to Black people across administrations and is currently happening to Black people under this administration, and is met by crickets. Yet when it starts touching white people, I see real anger start being felt from the gen pop followed by amplification and co-opting of Black terms and memorialization… I stg it takes everything in me to give af about yall.

**Edited: linking a gfm for Keith

***update: the gfm is unavailable. Will post an updated link as soon as I have one (removing the link until then for less confusion)

*** updated gfm link verified by Keith Porter Jr’s grandfather

star trek episodes about a "sentient AI" turning out to be stolen human brains put into computers by a mad scientist, by series

tos: the episode is based on the fact that the stolen brain is a Woman and she needs love too

tng: the mad scientist is a sort of an annoyingly dressed flashy guy who's annoying and we're all glad to see him exposed for this by data who makes a quip about being real sentient AI. picard has a moving speech abt how stealing brains is bad. deanna should have sensed the brain but she doesn't bc she's not in the episode

voy: they find the brain when it starts decomposing and realize that it has been powering the ship the entire time. they encounter trouble when they realize it won't work without a human brain. an engineer gets into an accident and falls onto an incurable coma and they decide it's what they would have wanted and put their brain in but the funeral is really sordid and nobody can look at each other the same after

ds9: julian bashir tries to solve the brain's problem by growing a headless body in a vial to give it to the brain to use. but the headless body escapes and trouble arises when quark refuses to give it back bc it became his best dabo consumer. this is plot B. plot A is the terrifying reality of war

ent: alien kidnaps archer to use as the brain donor but lets him go as the brain scan turns out to be negative

disco: it's in season one or two. all klingon ships run on stolen human brains and this isn't really remarked upon by anybody at all but the floating brains are good set dressing to a scene when ash tyler is breathing heavily and making tortured faces abt having a klingon in his bones
