I think it might be important for people to know that, for decades, humanity has been and is capable of virtually annihilating itself and most life on Earth within minutes, but has never been closer to doing that (as far as we know) than the Cuban Missle Crisis. Nothing is over until it is over.

Viola Davis: "The definition of hell is on your last day on Earth, the person you became meets the person you could have become." Audience: "Woo."

Charlotta Spears Bass, longtime editor of the Black newspaper The California Eagle, was a journalist and activist who fought for the civil rights of African Americans in the early and mid-20th century. She's the first Black woman to run for vice president of the United States (1952).

Any more of "us" mess with Three Days Grace? Is it just me? 😅

"Fear will bind you, gripping to the present which must always past. Regret will bind you, longing for the past you cannot change. Love will bind you, yearning for a future you will not see. Unbound, may you depart in peace." BARS!!!

This is the most clutch post in all of creation!!!

I voted no for every Georgian who is losing thousands for healthcare, infrastructure, and schools.

My diversion resolution passed PSLA Committee today! On to the full Council meeting next Monday.

Effortlessly iconic 💅⚡🐈‍⬛

All of us agree on expanding Medicaid (though it took some longer than others). But that’s the floor, especially since the bipartisan coalition is there. The question is what comes next? Our campaign is the only one laying out that vision.

Drop a teacher!

McIVER: Do you consider yourself a religious man? LYONS: Yes mam McIVER: How do you think judgment day will work for you with so much blood on your hands? LYONS: I'm not going to entertain that question McIVER: Do you think you're going to hell, Mr Lyons?

All these Sesame Street characters being Black is fantastic 🤣

This conversation could literally be about this exact moment.

A special line art visual for the latest JUJUTSU KAISEN Season 3 episode.

"Do not seek beauty in battle. Do not seek virtue in death. Do not make the mistake of considering only your own life. If you wish to protect that which you must protect, slice the enemy you must defeat from behind."

I think it's time. #soon

Gotta love the companies that have you upload your resume and then manually fill in or edit the same exact info from the recently uploaded resume.

I introduced the first statewide data center moratorium in the country and corporations got mad before the bill language was even done. We should get all the facts before permanently changing the beautiful landscape of our state.

Here ya go. “Lift Every Voice and Sing” with Howard University’s Gospel Choir 🖤✊🏾 youtu.be/huXrTXnl2aY?...

Happy Black History Month everyone #blacksky

I got a chance to write about last week’s episode of Jujutsu Kaisen which, despite my issues with the show in general, delivered the kind of woman-led badassery that battle shonen so rarely give us. Incredible direction, sharp animation, and some hilarious use of slow mo (punch that twink!).

Anyway...

Our upcoming episode is titled, “A libertarian, a socialist, and a newspaper editor walk into a podcast.”

Critique by creating.

The DeKalb County Commission, at its Jan. 27 meeting, again deferred an ordinance regulating data centers. Another public hearing will be held on May 12.

“The shooting of Porter, who leaves behind daughters aged 10 and 20, was not caught on camera” How convenient for ICE

1/ Last year, 32 people died while in federal detention, making it the deadliest year for the agency in more than two decades. Two weeks ago, Renee Good was killed by ICE agents in Minneapolis. Today, Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse, was killed by federal officers in the same city.

Do y'all need him to say it before you're able to feel gratified in your analysis? Why does he need to constantly be platformed and empowered for saying what the same people have said about the same shit since the beginning of this nation? Liberate yourselves smh

“We cannot simply sit by and allow this to continue. We must use every tool that we have to fight back.”

Drop a lawyer.

"All eyes have been on this project, and this project is pretty much the linchpin to a lot of other things to take place... It’s almost like a unilateral decision that was made by a few individuals on a widely watched project." - Atlanta City Council member Byron Amos www.ajc.com/news/2026/01...

Thank you to all the community members who put pressure on Fulton County to do the right thing. $2 million is a drop in the bucket compared to what we should be doing to make sure housing is a treated as a human right in ATL! atlantaciviccircle.org/2026/01/21/f...

Atlanta DSA condemns the ICE occupation of Minneapolis and the unnecessary bloodshed and suffering they are inflicting on working people, and is endorsing a protest outside the ICE Field Office in Atlanta. Join us on Friday at 5:00 PM this Friday at the ICE Field Office in Atlanta ✊

I wish I could believe this was an inflection point, but the collective memory of the US seems incapable of holding that white supremacy is suicidal.

I went to Minneapolis last week. What I saw was horrifying and inspiring in equal measure. Gift link to my latest column: www.nytimes.com/2026/01/19/o...

Nobody: TurboTax 2 days before tax season:

Minnesota appears to be in gear for a mass uprising. Unions, community organizations, faith leaders, and small businesses there are calling for a statewide day of “no work (except for emergency services), no school, and no shopping” on January 23 @lfelizleon.bsky.social reports 🧵1/7
