Sometimes op-eds should just be emails sent directly to who you’re actually mad at.

Happy Mother’s Day!

Forever and always, happy 510 day to my beloved hometown City of Oakland 💛💚💙🤍

Cruz is a pandemic baby so he’s a little behind on some of the community exploration milestones, however today he took his first BART ride and had a blast.

HACA is extending its April 2024 waitlist opening for ONE DAY ONLY on May 6, 2024, from 8 AM - 8 PM PST. Applications will be accepted for its Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program and HACA-owned Project in Emeryville for families with very low-income and extremely low-income.

Housing is both about mobility and stability. Being able to put down roots and stay somewhere also means being able to move when you want to and when you need to within that location you’ve called home.

When I yell on here about how the vast majority of PoC’s aren’t eligible for the income restricted low income housing you swear saves us from displacement, this is what I’m talking about. Rent burdened doesn’t equal eligible for low income/income restricted housing.

We been trying to tell you

What did I tell y’all about the issue with journalism these days? Attempting to make my health a “gotcha” moment is repulsive behavior.

I know some of y’all struggle with this, but the option to SAY NOTHING on a matter that doesn’t pertain to you is always available. It’s literally the FIRST option. I beg you, my siblings in Christ, choose that first option more moving forward.

I just want to offer this tweet from YESTERDAY up on the TL just in case anybody needs to use it in a QRT

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been threatened with “I’ll write that you didn’t respond!”. Ok? I didn’t and won’t ever. I’m not engaging with lying abusive bullies. Now what?

And they swear they’re the only ones telling the “real” story. No you don’t have an editor that forces you to verify your nonsense before you go to print like a real journalist.

In my experience, the people who prop up abusers, especially after there’s confirmed evidence of the abuse, almost always have abused others as well.
