Having a border Collie in this heat is like being roommates with a marathon runner who insists they'll be fine to run 26km while wearing a full length fur coat.

My rule: when you're responsible for several of the best films in cinema history (plus slew of other great ones), you get Birthday post. BOTD: Sidney Lumet, genius filmmaker 6/25/1924 Oscar nods: 58 12 Angry Men 🎬 75 Dog Day Afternoon 🎬 76 Network 🎬 81 Prince of the City 📖 82 Verdict 🎬 #filmsky 📽

Buster Keaton didn't stand still while a two-ton housefront collapsed on top of him with a window cut out to barely clear his shoulders on each side so you could tell me that AI is "inevitable."

haha you're the same age as people you used to think were old as fuck

I’m Batman

it‘s also a project trump undertook to try to shit on obama and he shit his own pants instead.

It's funny that the absolute disaster that is the reflection pool has been such a media frenzy, when so many worse things have happened so much more incompetently this whole time with so little reporting lol

OPINION: "Carl Sagan observes that all of human history—with all its triumphs and failures—is summed up in a tiny speck against infinity. And at the Grand Canyon, I felt much the same way," Assistant Editor Kevin Edward writes.

I just don't have much patience for the "Obama Must Save Us" routine. He's not obligated to say anything and nothing he says will ever be enough for the people demanding it.

The crazy thing is that for most of my life I would go ten, fifteen, sometimes even thirty minutes at a time without thinking about the Reflecting Pool.

I think there is some "there" here...

But the thing that needs to be said ... needs to be said Obama is not the virtue mule of democratic life you don't get to have a coke bender on fascism Then run back to Black folks when the eroticisim of white supremacy simply does not work out

Stevie been a wonder all my life. And look at those fros! 🙌🏽

“Do you ever wonder about the scale of cosmic existence and your place in an infinite universe? Oh, and treatos?”

😹 come on now who is writing this season

Let me stop all y'all right there. SUN TEA. Hello? This hot ass weather is just begging you to use THE SUN. 5 tea bags in a 2 liter glass bottle of water, stick in the sun for a couple of hours, add your sugar (I prefer cane syrup) stir, refridgerate for awhile or pour over ice. DRINK. Ok? Bye.

Frenchies trying to kill me

Happy Father's day to all the good papas and to Willie J

Michelle and I had fun surprising the first group of visitors to the Obama Presidential Center on Juneteenth. Come check it out!

"Give Me The Night"-George Benson 🗣️'Cause there's music in the air and lots of lovin' everywhere.... #BlackMusicMonthChallenge

Day 3 of singing this as a response to pretty much everything. Happy Saturday.

We made it to another #PandemicFriday I gots nothing go be FREE enjoy the day and your life. As always EAT GOOD | DRINK GOOD & REST #TGIF

I’m not arguing my Blackness with people. I grew up with a tv on top of a tv. I know who I am.

reminder: the first thing they did when they got the news on juneteenth was to try and find family and loved ones. celebrate juneteenth by loving on your people while you have them, and maybe have a red drink while you're at it.

Happy Juneteenth to my Black friends and happy "be quiet and reflect on how and what we can do better in the fight against white supremacy/racism" day to my white friends.

A mood is ON up in here

"Being a decent human being is a choice."- Michelle Obama

Michelle Obama shades Trump: How absurd it is to even imagine that you might have buckled under the pressure even once. Lashed out in frustration. Lost your temper. How absurd it is to imagine that you might have done anything but make our family and this entire country proud.

Breaking News: the algae has agreed to accept $300 billion to consider vacating the reflecting pool

Nas posted. I cried again. Missed him.

Sharing this poem again because I think the world needs these words now more than ever.

Mental health check in...

The older I get the more I realize how much a person is truly left behind in certain ways when they don’t have good parents. Also how many people, for most of my life, have measured “good parenting” by whether or not the kid survived childhood. Never mind what condition this new adult was left in.

post the best picture you have ever taken of your pet (if you feel like it):

So you telling me its only Tuesday?

This dog just got a little brother two weeks ago, and he's already exhausted. 12/10 for both (u/ThinkingBud)

BREAKING NEWS: JOURNALIST FOUND SOMETHING OUT LAST YEAR, IS JUST NOW TELLING US. SOURCES REPORTING IT COINCIDENTALY COINCIDES WITH BOOK RELEASE

This weekend there was a really stark difference between the "two Americas" as they're framed via conservatism; Trump's version, empty glitz and grift and violence co-opted and repackaged for white consumption, vs an authentic and celebratory multiculturalism we saw in NY. I know which I prefer.
