The way reality TV weaponizes “hygiene” critiques against Black women is such a specific cruelty it’s never about cleanliness, it’s coded class and race shame disguised as dating advice. “Snooping for Love” putting Patricia on blast wasn’t spontaneous; they cast her knowing they’d humiliate her.

Starting to worry a bit about the Aces. A’ja dropped 29 against the Fever and no one else cracked double digits? That’s a red flag. I love Loyd’s game but I’m not sure she or Smith were the right fits. A’ja can’t carry this team every night—she needs help. #WNBA #Aces

To my beautiful Black brothers and sisters—Today, we remember.We celebrate.We rest. We honor the ones who walked before us by living fully, freely, and without apology. Let joy be your protest. Let peace be your power.Happy Juneteenth.

I am so FREAKING proud of Coco, she’s such an amazingly fearless athlete and Black woman.

May your Sunday bring peace to your mind, strength to your body, and warmth to your soul. Black women, rest. You deserve it—today and always

America—where hate is always within budget, but survival comes at a premium.

Mick, you inserted yourself into a conversation that wasn’t about you, and now you’re unraveling. If guilt isn’t the issue, why the defensiveness? You weren’t called out, yet here you are—pressed, deflecting, making it personal.

Mick’s unraveling makes sense—he never thought his vote mattered. But that’s the odd part, isn’t it? Like this was all just a performance, meant to be seen, not felt. B/c if it didn’t make an impact, then what was the point? Just to talk about how broken things are, while letting it go to hell?

I wish journalists would stop framing political news as wins or losses for politicians or political parties. It’s an abrogation of our mission. Why do we keep doing this? Is the spending bill a win or loss for the American people? Who does it help? Who does it hurt? Is it sound policy? Fiscally?

I’m thrilled about relocating to Maryland with my partner. While no place is flawless, I was captivated by the beauty of Black in all its shades and the sense of belonging. The cost is a bit jarring, but I’m eager to live in a state that’s worth the investment.

Lauren and Orion’s dynamic on *Married at First Sight* has been painful to watch—it’s a masterclass in manipulation and emotional exhaustion. Orion’s behavior has consistently shifted blame, twisted conversations, and made Lauren question herself, all while maintaining an air of justification.

I’m thrilled about the WNBA season; the pregame matches have been fantastic. The Sky, Lynx, and Aces all seem rejuvenated. I’m eager to watch the Dreams and the Mystics in their season opener.

Police killings come with built-in cover-ups. *Incident* laid it bare—justification kicks in before accountability is even considered. But when a grieving Black father retaliates? Justice is swift, merciless, and unquestioned. [Deadline - *Incident* Documentary](deadline.com/2025/02/inci...

Referees don’t just officiate—they’ve got skin in the game, meaning vested interests. When Curry gets manhandled and key calls vanish, it’s not a fluke—it’s bias in action. #VestedInterest #DoubleStandards"

The cuts, the rhetoric, the erasure of equity—it’s not just DOGE. It’s the administration laying the groundwork for a modern Jim Crow. Watching them dismantle diversity while the Klan’s house rises—it’s oppression in real time. #ModernJimCrow #EscalatingOppression

To add to the chaos, I’ll spend the entire day trying to unravel the reason behind the sudden and inexplicable song stuck in my head. 😭😩

Marc, it’s way too early for this. Caitlin Clark doesn’t have to be in every conversation. A’ja Wilson is in her own league—give her the spotlight she’s earned without dragging unnecessary comparisons into it. #WNBA #AjaWilson #RespectGreatness"

Julian Brown is turning plastic waste into diesel fuel, showcasing his groundbreaking work in Chicago. It feels good to celebrate brilliance and innovation happening around us from time to time. www.fox5atlanta.com/news/metro-a... #Innovation #EnvironmentalJustice #BlackExcellence

It’s hard not to feel wistful for the boldness of athletes like Ali and Chamberlain—icons who spoke truth to power without hesitation. Today, money and scrutiny seem to hold others back. Isn’t it a little sad how rare that courage feels?

Now freed from the paywall: a list of resources to track all things Trump regime. I use them regularly in my writing and research, and I thought readers would find them useful, too! www.altrightdelete.news/p/all-the-tr...

Just started *Forspoken* and honestly? The hate this game gets is ridiculous. The mechanics are solid, the world is intriguing, and Frey is a protagonist worth rooting for. The backlash? Feels like a mix of racism and misogyny more than actual critique. Let people enjoy things.

The Sinners looks interesting and I really don’t know if that’s good or bad.

There’s a peculiar delight in witnessing the Hornets being thoroughly defeated, a satisfaction that fills my heart with glee, every single time.

From Douglasville (GA) to anywhere he dares to dream — Mantavius Presley proves that Black excellence knows no limits. 58 college acceptances, $1M in scholarships, and a future as bright as his ambition. This is what hard work, support, and opportunity look like. #BlackExcellence

A Lupe fiasco concert during the Memphis and Heat game was not on my bingo card but Im into it. Choro is on point and he sounds good.

I scored a library card for my birthday, and let me tell you, it was already a game-changer. But hold onto your hats, because the Libby app is like a rocket launcher for my brain! I’m practically bouncing off the walls like a sugar-fueled toddler in a library wonderland.

Today, the House GOP censured me for speaking out for the American people against @POTUS’s plan to cut Medicaid. I accept the consequences of my actions, but I refuse to stay silent in the face of injustice. #WeShallOvercome x.com/repalgreen/s...

Why is this woman eating dirt. 😩 Yellowjackets is interesting.

Here we go w/the BS!!! Before the last election deep in the 23rd hour, they wanted to change the state from divided electoral college votes to winner takes all. Now they want to X online voter reg, restrict absentee voting. Then others seem to think we have a nebraskaexaminer.com/2025/03/05/n...

The President of the United States has the emotional maturity of a teenage bully.

It's strikingly similar to the white supremacy campaigns in Reconstruction North Carolina, as described by Gregory Downs in Declarations of Independence (p.192), where Black employment in government jobs was framed as prima facie evidence of anti-white discrimination.

Okay Rose I see y’all, they really pushed the pace tonight. And to win against the undefeated Owls, whew. They are catching their stride. #Unrivaled

Indiana fell right in suit they couldn’t wait to create and pass a baseless “law” that will absolutely destroy lives and progress. While they rank in the very bottom of education and healthcare, they want to remind us how racist and incompetent they are. www.wfyi.org/news/article...

Draymond Green talks so much shit. The Warriors are not about win the championship this year.

I was cleaning off my car this morning, it was covered in snow. A few minutes later a car pulls up right beside me and I’m automatically on guard. She gets out and pulls out her snow brush and helps me clean my car off. she reminded me that kindness still exists even amongst strangers. 🥺

🚨Elon dismantling USAID is dangerous—it’s about power and increasing his wealth. Gutting USAID doesn’t just harm and kill the world’s most vulnerable—it also undermines America’s global influence, creating a power vacuum that authoritarian regimes like Russia and China are eager to exploit.

I LOVE BLACK WOMEN WITH MY WHOLE HEART AND SOUL

I thought it would be cute and quirky to try and learn SQL this year😩
