TODAY: University of North Carolina Chapel Hill students were in an active shooter lockdown during the first week of classes.
This is the reality of being a young person in America. THIS is America.
Unacceptable. City of Mesa is displaying censorship and overreach. The art work had a theme of social and political causes. Just another example of how right when we are making progress, we take a giant step back. Disappointed in our leadership. @CITYOFMESA @MesaArtsCenter
ART EXHIBITION POSTPONED:
the City of Mesa has postponed an upcoming art exhibition after city leaders felt a piece of art by @OBEYGIANT depicting police brutality would offend their police officers, and families.

TOMORROW is #August1stTweetOutDay. Join me, @MzSgtPepper & the WHOLE WORLD in NOT tweeting for 24 hrs. I won't dignify accusations that this is a political statement when it is, in fact, simply an experimental STUNT because I'm bored & wanna see what happens. #TweetlessTuesday
My parents eating schedule in Mexico is whaco. They do breakfast at 8AM, and dinner at 2PM, and that’s it. We did this eating schedule in Mexico growing up but we always had a little something in the evening. My folks don’t do late dinner and I’m starving at 5 lol

This thread highlights two significant issues: 1) the normalization of the absence/invisibility/erasure of Latinos in major news sources & 2) the many Latino stories that should be on big (& small) screens.

Just saw OPPENHEIMER, an in-depth character exploration of the people who built the atomic bomb, a weapon of mass destruction that killed a quarter million Japanese civilians. Film is 3 hours long and features zero Japanese people. – at Pomona, CA
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The film ´´Oppenheimer ´´ is a biographical drama based entirely on the life of the physicist Robert Oppenheimer. There are no records of him ever meeting a Japanese person so it would not make sense to create such scene as the project is a biopic, not a work of fiction
