PA House Democrats pass bill banning whites-only housing without GOP support

After Pennsylvania House Republicans vote against a bill banning whites-only housing and adding protections for members of the LGBTQ community, MS NOW's Ali Velshi asks Democratic Speaker of the Pennsylvania House Joanna McClinton to help him understand why Republicans "couldn't muster the ability to vote that down." Speaker McClinton says that Republicans are "doing the worst things out loud in front of the entire world to watch" as they strip away civil rights.

Dearest #RubyBridges: Thank you. >>> 65 years ago today, 4 federal marshals escorted 6-year-old Ruby Bridges to her 1st day of school (1st grade), as the 1st Black student to attend previously all-white William Frantz Elementary School in New Orleans, Louisiana. And today, there are legislators and school districts seeking to ban teaching on Ruby Bridges under the guise of banning “wokeness.” We have to stand so that they don’t whitewash U.S. and world history.

Willie – The Gentle Explorer

Willie is a sweet, slightly shy boy who may take a little time to warm up, but once he feels safe, his playful side shines through. He loves chasing toys and curling up in cozy spots. Willie gets along well with other cats and doesn’t mind dogs either. With just a bit of patience, you’ll discover his soft heart and fun-loving nature. He’s the perfect little companion for someone who appreciates a gentle soul. Adoption fee includes neuter when he's old enough at our vet, up to date vaccines, and microchip.

Am I the only one who thinks the tumblr April fools thing this year is a bit distasteful considering the recent banning of trans, queer, bipoc, and other marginalized folk for just existing?

numbers conservatives should ban:

odd numbers. they're odd, and doesn't "odd" mean "queer"?

in particular, 1 (a hanger-on of multiplication that doesn't do a damn thing), and the abhorrent "sexy primes" (primes that differ from one another by six, e.g., 5 and 11; such numbers are unsuited for developing eyes, ears, and brains).

zero -- doesn't do anything in addition and is generally a mathematical welfare queen. also, can we, like, talk about what happens when you divide by it?

two -- it's even and a prime? what, that's like being a man and a woman or whatever the latest queer nonsense is! back in my day, we just persecuted out queer people, which was self-evidently better.

fibonacci numbers -- they keep showing up! it's a conspiracy by (((them)))!

also, fractions that contain odd numbers in the numerator or denominator, since odd numbers are queer. decimals don't make it any better.

mixed fractions, because they look different.

irrational numbers, because they just. keep. going.

imaginary numbers, because they won't integrate with the normal numbers nicely. c'mon, assimilate!

negative numbers, because everyone needs to be happy about this state of affairs all the time.

addition, for mocking christianity by using a cross (+).

anything containing the digit 4 in any way, shape, or form, because it also mocks christianity by containing a cross.

anything containing the digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9, for being undocumented immigrants. roman numerals are okay though because they're white people numerals. cistercian numerals, being Christian, are even better.

factorials and exponents, for being parasitic by growing too fast and trying to take over other numbers.

the usage of "." in any way, shape or form, because it's called a period and children's minds shouldn't be exposed to menstruation yet

XII and any multiples of it or numbers containing it any way, shape, or form, as well as supporters of it, because we said so [CENSORED FOR REFERENCE TO MENSTRUATION] Objectors will be deported to ecuador [CENSORED FOR REFERENCE TO MENSTRUATION] If you believe someone you know is an XII-sympathizer, please call us at 202-456-1414 and we will "investigate" them and deport them if found to be so

I went to check myself if what they're saying is true and it is. The women's reproductive government site is shut down and Instagram will now censor anything that is left. There was also an inquiry for me to follow Vance and Melania which didn't exist prior as I do not follow politicians or celebrities on Instagram. This is a problem. This feels very similar to 1984.
