Um... so today I was on @cbsmornings.bsky.social. 🤯 I talked to Jericka Duncan about why Black women matter to our economy. CBS called me a "Harvard Economist" (bruh). And Gayle King read my book, #TheDoubleTax. I'm in disbelief. Here's a clip from our segment. #blacksky #news #jobs

Early Twitter was nothing but chaos 24/7 but in all the best ways

The Twin Cities aren’t playing when they say Abolish ICE. Here’s another graphic for our Minnesota friends.

well at least he can acknowledge that we are on a sinking ship

I'm questioning the moral character of the 36% of the voting-eligible population who didn't give a shit to vote.

The reality is that 2024 was a fundamental test of the moral character of the nation and we failed spectacularly. We’re living with the consequences now. Maybe we improve. I hope so.

Mood all weekend

The cognitive dissonance of constantly reading that I need to spend some time mastering generative AI while not knowing a single person in my industry who uses it to do good work 🤙

But yeah. Let’s continue to wasteful use water gobbling appliances simultaneously per house hold or ask chatgpt how to spell a word or make a grocery list for you

Reasonable suspicion = not white

“It’s like half of y’all ain’t never seen Star Wars or a Disney movie. How do you not know which side to root on?”

On this day in 2009 Avatar became the highest-grossing film of all time.

Warnock: He's got a lot of nerve saying that I'm using faith to divide people. This is a man who literally had protesters gassed and beaten down so he could hold up a bible in front of a church.

The 6th #JamesBond film “ON HER MAJESTY’S SECRET SERVICE” directed by Peter R. Hunt and starring George Lazenby, Diana Rigg, Telly Savalas, and Gabriele Ferzetti premiered at the Odeon Leicester Square in London #OnThisDay in 1969 🎬 Eon Productions 🎞 United Artists

Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama. Us: Across your entire career? Reiner: In a 6 year period. Us: That sounds- Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.

“You’re probably busy getting ready for Thanksgiving with your family and I’m the last person you wanna hear from but just want to wish you a good Thanksgiving. I was always Thankful for you. Hope whoever you with know you don’t like your food touching like I did. Tell your mom hope she good too”

"It hit him right in the penis."

Billionaires are losing interest in generative AI. They must have found a younger technology.

Tim Robinson's new series The Chair Company on HBO is great. It has keen depiction of humiliation-driven paranoia, the alienation that comes with conspiracism, and the thin line between falling down internet rabbit holes and uncovering genuine corruption that drives conspiracy theory obsession.

Couldn't remember Jon Hamm's name or the name of his character. So I made a discovery

Vonnegut. Sci-Fi and social satire. Brilliant, funny, devastating.

Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe vaporized my understanding of the world and left a more expansive one in its place. 10th of December by George Saunders gave me the obvious but valuable truth that great literature isn't something that stopped happening
