I'm going by Merriam-Webster! 😏 It is NOT gender-neutral. And while it is an antiquated term altogether, I don't think anyone will accept the old latin version! LOL. Thanks for trying though! 😉

According to @itsafronomics.blacksky.app, in the U.S. the average woman spends $3,756 per year on beauty maintenance, while men spend $2,928. The question: Is he BALD or is he BROKE? *DISCUSS* 🤭

In the United States, one study found that the average woman spends $3,756 per year on beauty men maintenance, while men spend $2,928. Expenditures on everything from hand creams to gym memberships cost the average American woman $300 per month and $225,360 over her lifetime (about $50,000 more than men).

I realize this could be an entirely legitimate app, but it struck me as odd when I saw it with its whole "100+ downloads". LOL. I checked and Google erroneously says this is the official Blacksky app, but then asks about "space-based satellite imagery services"! 😳

A screenshot of an AI Overview from a Google search of "does blacksky have a mobile app"? The results say: Yes, Blacksky has an Android app available. To clarify, Blacksky is a decentralized social media platform and community. You can find and download their community-driven client on the Google Play Store. Are you looking for the Blacksky social app or are you interested in their space-based satellite imagery services? Let me know so I can get you exactly what you need. AI can make mistakes, so double-check responses.

About a year ago, I kept posting about the 300,000+ Black women who have lost their jobs under this administration. This Platner situation is especially frustrating because TOO MANY QUALIFIED SISTERS ARE OUT OF WORK FOR Y'ALL TO STAY COMMITTED TO STUPID MEDIOCRE white men! SMH.

Black women lost 319,000 jobs between February and July of 2025, the only major female demographic to experience significant job losses during this five-month period.

White men saw the largest job
increase 一 365,000 一 among
groups.

This young man made a joke about being willing to have sex with patients in his charge. He blocked me, so here's some context for the associated commentary you may see on your skyline. Most of the people replying to the thread seem to have found it funny. Take note of the ones who liked it.

I saw THIS and got to thinking about Tyler Perry's legacy. I think, and I may never live to see it, that when he dies, just about EVERYTHING he's done will die with him. Same with Oprah. Something about their work doesn't have 'longevity' once they're not here to promote it. 🤷🏾‍♀️

A comic strip depicting the following: 1) An angry purple man is rolling up his sleeve and about to punch an orange man wearing a green shirt with a Nazi swastika on it, as a yellow man watches the exchange in the distance. The purple man says "GET READY FOR AN ASS-KICKING YOU NAZI BITCH". 2) The yellow man intervenes and says "UM,EXCUSE ME. LET'S RESOLVE THIS WITH
KINDNESS SHALL WE? WHAT WOULD JESUS DO?". 3) The final scene is Jesus looking onto the exchange from a cloud, eating popcorn and screaming: "KNOCK THAT MOTHERFUCKER OUTTT!".

CONTEXT: A man with 100,000+ followers and an agenda is riling folks up over gentrification.

A seemingly disingenuous self-professed 'Minnesota guy' asks a condescending question about gentrification on Bluesky on June 27, 2026.

A screenshot of Bluesky posts about Will Stancil from Ashley Fairbanks:
ashley fairbanks: @ziibiing.com . 46m
will stancil does not have the same goals
as me, he is a centrist who has actively
worked to make the lives of people of
color and poor people worse

ashley fairbanks @ziibiing.com 44m
this isn't rooted in his stupid online trolling
but his actual real life work

Icemopper @icemopper.bsky.social 30m
Damn that sucks, tell me a lot more about
how his actual real life work is actively
making things worse for people of color
For context, I'm in a very different BlueSky
bubble most likely! I don't have 100% of
the information you do!

A screenshot of Bluesky posts about Will Stancil from Ashley Fairbanks:
ashley fairbanks @ziibiing.com 9m
the place he works, The Institute on
Metropolitan Research at the u of MN
studies segregation and offers policy
suggestions that often go against the lived
experiences of BIPOC in community
they advocate for breaking up segregated
communities and doing things like
relocating BIPOC to suburbs

ashley fairbanks @ziibiing.com . 6m
people of color and Indigenous people will
tell you that while this may improve
statistics on paper for each community
the BIPOC are still being left behind
because underlying causes are still not
being addressed
once displaced, people's political power is
further diluted

A screenshot of Bluesky posts about Will Stancil from Ashley Fairbanks:

ashley fairbanks
@zbiing.com : 6m
accessing resources, culture, jobs, transit
becomes harder. people are forced into
communities where it is harder to keep
their culture alive and they feel forced to
assimilate into whiteness

ashley fairbanks @ziibiing.com 6m
of course, people like Will and his boss Myron Orfield have been told this
thousands of times, but they continue to
advocate for these policies and use the cover of academia to push what is
essentially white assimilation

ashley fairbanks @ziibiing.com 4m
this work has had substantial real life
impacts in terms of where and how
housing is built, and whether it is built at all
it also gives a green light to gentrification
because they think white proximity is
somehow magically healing for BIPOC
communities.
