great white teeth;

On Wednesday night’s episode of The Nightly Show, host Larry Wilmore delivered a powerful indictment of police violence against black Americans. While the media had been quick to point out Alton Sterling’s criminal record, Wilmore brought up a famous white criminal to show what a true double standard it is.

Keep Lavish Diamond Reynolds, her child and the entire Castile-extended family in your prayers today. Lavish is said to have finally been released from police custody. Now she must begin to work to rebuild her and her child’s life, after witnessing and documenting Philando Castile’s execution by Minnesota police. We uplift their courage, and mourn for a loss no one should have to face. #farfromover

thank you Drake for using your platform to speak on Alton Sterling and the many injustices African Americans face in the US.

In 2011, researchers at the University of Chicago conducted a simple experiment to ascertain whether a rat would release another rat from a cage without being given a reward. The answer was yes. After several sessions, the rats learned intentionally and quickly to open the restrainer and release the caged rats. The rats also repeated the behaviour even when they were denied the reward of reunion. Even more astonishing, when the rats were presented with two cages, one containing a rat, the other chocolate, they chose to open both cages and “typically shared the chocolate”.
