drake, amazingly, still finding brand new ways to lose to kendrick lamar

Drake’s lawsuit against UMG over Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Not Like Us" has been dismissed

"The Court concludes that the allegedly defamatory statements in ‘Not Like Us’ are nonactionable opinion, the motion to dismiss is granted”

They also noted that the song had a ‘catchy beat and propulsive baseline’

JD Vance is doing the Reichstag Fire the right way.

There’s loads of great rap music. You’re just focusing on the mainstream. Mainstream music is designed to appeal to the lowest denominator. This year has been an amazing year for rap, you’ve just not been looking.

How far?

Lmao

rare to have a social network where the CEO isn't the main character and we'd like to keep it that way

but for the record, @jay.bsky.team is the CEO of bluesky, jack dorsey is no longer on the board and he owns 0% of the company

“a large group of funny, talented trans posters were the earliest adopters of Bluesky and were able to forge the platform into what it is today: funny, frequently horny, and with very strong moderation tools. If you like Bluesky’s vibe right now, thank a trans person,” journalist Katelyn Burns said

Jack Dorsey quits Bluesky board and urges users to stay on Elon Musk’s X Twitter co-founder’s decision to leave rival social network he helped start was apparently unexpected

Jack Dorsey is no longer on the board of this platform. Bluesky is billionaire free.

A number of artists and creators have made their home on Bluesky, and we hear their concerns with other platforms training on their data. We do not use any of your content to train generative AI, and have no intention of doing so.

Seeing old Twitter friends join Bluesky

I just talked about how great Bluesky is on MSNBC

Oh no, this echo chamber I'm stuck in is full of amazing art, generous, kind people, and joy.

What ever shall I do?

The cover of the Nigerian edition of SHE WHO KNOWS features the character of Najeeba (and her kponyungo mask) standing before a desert landscape.

Here is the cover of the Nigerian edition of my novella SHE WHO KNOWS: Firespitter (published under Ouida Books' Phoenix imprint).

It was drawn by the wonderful Abdulkareem Baba Aminu. I will be in Lagos, Nigeria for its release at this year's Ake Arts & Book Festival.

Black Twitter floated into the Blue Sky and said

You might as well have Mr Beast dunk on Michael Jordan next. Since we just doin whatever at this point

Post from Latino pollster Mike Madrid: “Doing some research for an upcoming article on the last “mass deportation” of Mexicans during the 1930’s. Over half of those deported were US citizens.”

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens.

Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”
