I can do hard things. I can do hard things. I can do hard things. I can do hard things. I can do hard things. Everything I need is in me. Everything I need is in me. Everything I need is in me. Everything I need is in me. Everything I need is in me.

Not even two full days into 2026 and the year is already bringing about major change. Wow. I can tell that I’m about to be skyrocketed into my next era.

When it comes to the question, “Do you want to be right or be in relationship,” it is completely fine if after trying for relationship multiple times and seeing no substantial effort, you choose wanting to be right instead.

Jill Scott has announced her sixth album 'To Whom This May Concern.' The lead single, "Beautiful People," is out now.

White folk will sue anything 🐻

AI can't apologize because AI does not have emotions therefore it cannot regret anything. It's important not to humanize AI and to recognize the humans behind the AI are the ones who are writing code and programs to allow AI to generate these types of explicit images.

Word of the year: AUDACITY

My fears are scared of me.

Chloë Bailey 😮‍💨😍😍

Please read more this year y’all. FULL books. Non-fiction and novels! Please please.

Mamdani arrives to his mayoral inauguration at City Hall in a motorcade of NYC taxi cabs—workers he went on hunger strike with in 2021.

Mary Sheffield was sworn in as Detroit’s 76th mayor, becoming the first woman to hold the office in the city's 324-year history

I won’t be leaving this bed today. God Bless.

Giving myself ‘til 6 PM to not be chaotic.

“Can’t believe NYC elected a Muslim as mayor.” In truth—a Black American Christian woman swearing in a Ugandan American Muslim of South Asian ethnicity as his Syrian American wife holds the Qurans he swears in on, all while standing on the steps of a subway station—is the most NYC thing imaginable.

One of my favorite pastimes.

This final season of ‘Bel-Air’ is so silly (derogatory).

Very champagne drunk right now. Love that.

Ngl, I had one of the best NYE —> NYD ever. So much fun.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO WHAT WILL BE THE BEST YEAR OF MY LIFE!!!!!!!!

Firm handshakes and sturdy daps >>>>>

10 years ago today, we lost the amazing Natalie Cole 🕊 🗣This will be... an everlasting love (February 6, 1950 – December 31, 2015) 💙

Wanted to get fun w/ the socks. Happy NYE.

Take yourself on more solo dates in 2026

In 2026, tell people EXACTLY how they’re being weird. Don’t hold back.

2026 is dedicated to prosperity, friendship, and health.

outgrowing friendships sucks as much as friendship breakups.

Please leave AI in 2025. I’m tired of losing respect for y’all dumbasses.

Don Lemon on TikTok sayin he started that drinkin on NYE on CNN shit And he said it just like that. 😂😂😂😂 (He’s not wrong)

2026 will be the most rewarding year of my life in all the best ways: love, friendship, finances, success, growth, passion, purpose, enjoyment, excitement. I can’t wait to live in the happening of it all.

Picture threads, abeg.

The way I relate to this so much. I was scrawny and I just felt so disproportionate. My freshman year friends would tell you how I never wore shorts because I was so insecure about my legs and hardly ever took my shirt off in front of others. Now, you can’t get me to keep those things on. To us! 🥂

(Giving my turn up friends the best of me tonight, though. 🤭)

Needed to be honest with myself and the truth is, I didn’t /really/ want to be outside like that tomorrow. Well, God must’ve been listening because a beloved friend just invited me to their crib for a small NYE gathering of good vibes: games, reflection, intention-setting, prayer, and bubbly. 😊

I really wish I had one in Chicago. Mariano’s don’t cut it.

No question. Sickening.

Isiah Whitlock Jr, best known for his role as Clay Davis on “The Wire,” has died. He was 71

Only you can walk the life you were created to live.

The way his smarmy politician mask just drops when he realizes that charm has no effect on Daniels... just masterful acting.

Clay Davis is only as iconic as he is because of Isiah Whitlock's performance. Clay is one of the slimiest characters on The Wire, but he's so damn charismatic that you can't help but be enthralled by his performance. You know he's running a con, but you want to see how it plays out.

1 hour for domestic flights. 2 for international.

There’s a topic on the feed rn that I can’t take seriously.

I like to get to the airport extra early so i can check that my gate exists. Go sit at the bar. Enjoy a nice meal have some wine or hard liquor. Make friends with strangers @ the bar. walk around. shop see what the stores have. maybe sneak into a lounge & read. An experience.

Ryan Coogler & Spike Lee will appear together on Variety’s ‘Directors on Directors.’ 🔔: The interview will be on Variety’s YouTube channel, January 7th.

Nothing kills a crush faster than seeing someone using A.I.

We acknowledge that no one has the bandwidth for this, but if it helps: - It’s ‘voilà,’ not ‘wallah!’ - It’s ‘a lot,’ not ‘alot.’ - It’s ‘further ado,’ not ‘farther adieu.’ - It’s ‘flesh out,’ not ‘flush out.’ - It’s ‘sneak peek,’ not ‘sneak peak.’ No worries if not!!!

Richard Smallwood, a gospel giant and songwriter known for classics like “Center of My Joy” and “Total Praise,” has died. He was 77
