I legitimately am not invested in these white people’s continental philosophy project and I’m about to eat shit for the next year because of it. Like fuck all these people frfr. 😭

A’JA WILSON, 4x MVP AND 3x WNBA CHAMPION 🐐 LONG LIVE MY GOAT

Me: how your ol lady? BM: oh, ol girl? Me:

They closing the gap.

Anxiety thru the roof. All I’ve been thinking about is the constant escalation and the impending death.

Oh duh! So they can force us to use this shit in perpetuity. Right!

Mind you, Spotify already hit users over the head with its own proprietary AI. What exactly does *this* do differently? Like what’s the value add…………

Good tip for life, great tip for Jamaican restaurants.

Fuck it. Happy Friday ✨😂

I had a totally embarrassing slip on this call and I’m gonna be laughing about it all day. 😂

This reminds me: If you’re in LA, my friend is the ✨star✨ of Zachary Bones’ The Aaron Play, Oct. 16-Nov. 16. This adaptation is of Aaron the Moor in Titus Andronicus. #BlackTheater www.supportblacktheatre.org/event/the-aa...

The worst part about this is the fact that we can’t (or maybe just don’t/won’t) track how many people develop MH problems *because* of prison. — I wish we’d get *there*.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system. I am not fearful — I am fearless. We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

I'd like to thank the Center for Cultural Innovation - AmbitioUS! Their support of Blacksky Algorithms with a $30K grant will help us further our development of infrastructure for online communities (moderation, deliberation, and peer-to-peer payment tools). 🎉

mfs don’t be engaging with the TEXT of music enough for me, especially to be calling themselves well read. (And to me, this isn’t the point of music at all. Music is for everyone! ❤️✨) But yeah. Idc. Ima music snob/elitist. 😂

Saw yall talking about music so I need to do a haul for yall. Imma post a list of *actual musicians* who released music in the last year to put yall on. Maybe tonight. Stay tuned ✨

Oop. Mercury with the comeback. 👀

New — I was fortunate to speak in front of students and faculty at Grinnell College in Iowa tonight about the business of independent journalism, the current state of media under Trump 2.0, and billionaire control. I published my full speech because I thought it might resonate beyond campus:

Today was hard.

Fundamentally, no one believes the Dem base will truly get violent, and if they do, the cops will put them down, whereas everyone believes the GOP base will get violent, and when they do the cops won’t stand in their way. Foucault: “Politics is war by other means.”

If you’re able, please support Rudy and his team as they continue to build a separate community for us on #blacksky! They deserve all the support for how they’ve handled things from day 1 for our community.

This seems related to "it's not a genocide until everyone is dead"

That was one of the funniest set of events I’ve ever seen in a football game. 😭😭

. 99yd return. Lmfao.

Nice to see ESPN quote our New York Times story today. But the big story here is this sentence: "According to a report from Deloitte earlier this year, revenues are projected to top $1 billion this year." If true, WNBA players are getting 2% of revenue!!! www.espn.com/wnba/story/_...

Bill Belicheck is the highest paid public official in the state of North Carolina 🙂

These days I’m drinking on other people’s dime or “you got a bottle at the crib”-ing myself. Soon, I’ll be making moonshine in large batches.

Sharing. Because we need to know. Also because “John Brown Gun Club”.

Whoever thought to bring back #ReadingRainbow during a literacy crisis deserves a Nobel Peace Prize.

Can they win? Or will Jordan Love make them cry tonight?! I NEED Cowboys tears tonight to heal me.

I hate bras. I hate that it’s a social norm. I hate capitalism. I hate h*rny men.

Watching football and bra “shopping” in tears. I’m just a contradictory girl in a modern world.

Meanwhile…

This afternoon in TIME MAGAZINE, @mariannecooper.bsky.social and I discuss why 300,000 Black women leaving the workforce is bad for the economy, bad for society, and bad for you. In the piece, we argue that Black women are the canaries in the coalmine and why ignoring #TheDoubleTax harms us all.

america is such a young country.

Fundraising for my kids and had to get political on the notoriously apolitical dumpster fire twilight zone of LinkedIn. Let’s see how this goes. 😂

ATLANTA (AP) — Judge says he'll toss the racketeering case against 61 people tied to protests over a training center called “Cop City.”

Can’t stand a person that wants to meet before the meeting before the meeting. Leave me alone 😭

“Because of this technology … we have no freedom at all,” said Yang Guoliang’s elder daughter, Yang Caiying, now in exile in Japan. “At the moment, it’s us Chinese that are suffering the consequences, but sooner or later, Americans and others, too, will lose their freedoms.”
