“The decision was made to exclude me from the filmed production of Swan Lake because I was told my brown skin would disrupt the aesthetic.” ~ Misty Copeland When folks gripe about DEI, remind them who benefited from shutting out dancers like Copeland. That pattern runs through our whole history.

Please share your Thanksgiving traditions especially if (like me!) you grew up in an immigrant family and have created your own version of this holiday. We make: Turkey mole, pickled onions, jalapeño cornbread, cranberry salsa, roasted corn, and sage salsa verde (thank you Samin Nosrat!).

The CDC website has been lobotomized. Where it once presented the decades of evidence debunking the false claims of a link between vaccines and autism, that has now been replaced with junk science.

MVPs, championships, the Olympics and an athlete known around the world? And he’s wholesome with a sense of humor and he’s not wooden in commercials? All time fumble.

Still thinking about how this shot went in 🤯

Steph Curry in the two San Antonio wins: 46 points and 49 points. Capped it tonight with these two free throws in the closing seconds. He mockingly fired the crowd up between after Wemby did the same before he got to the line.

I said goodbye to my little girl Penny on Sunday. I shared a lot of her online over the years and so I’d like to share a few thoughts about her now that she is gone.
