Made a playlist just to put Girl Get Up after Rise and Shine.

Alright let me go run my errands. ✌🏾

Really needed this day off. I’m worn out and overcommitted right now.

And I remember when people were saying something about “cleaning theater“. 🙄

Also, they need to take all the coffee machines out the hotel rooms.

I remember that poem. “When I was born I was Black…when I die I’ll be Black.”

Not going to redo that post but I sincerely hope people aren’t buying Temu meat. Lord let it be clickbait please.

It’s stuff like this and times like these that I wish I had a very specific superpower.

Don’t want anyone who thinks Daenarys went too far in charge

I’m not coming together with these people. They are evil personified—nothing to gain from it.

And a sad fact is that those universities & the like aren’t going to turn around and reinstitute those policies and funding.

Thousands of institutions abandoned programs, ended or rewrote scholarships, closed down clubs and publications, all in pre-emptive compliance.

And you know why?

Mostly because they wanted to do it if they thought they could blame someone else for it.

Right On Time

A song I can get lost in open.spotify.com/track/1hmfrH...

People are complex humans. Its okay to celebrate Jesse and his accomplishments and still acknowledge his shortcomings. But today. I, EYE, Me, Moi, celebrate his legacy to the Black community.

Updates: Jesse Jackson, Civil Rights Leader, Dies at 84

Jesse Jackson, whose impassioned oratory and vision of a “rainbow coalition” of the poor and forgotten made him the nation's most influential Black figure in the years between the civil rights crusades of Martin Luther King Jr. and the election of Barack Obama, died on Tuesday at 84. Follow live.

Gotta catch Tiny Desk later. Back to work.

As We Lay and Secret Lovers are my two favorite cheating songs.

They threw the book at A. Thompson. 5 consecutive life sentences & no parole.

All the super cold dry air over the last two weeks triggered my son’s asthma. It hasn’t been this cold for a minute so I didn’t think about it until I heard that first cough.

“Subtract the fake from the real, see how you feel”

So far, I really like this new Jill Scott album.

I think we knew the stuff in those files was going to be bad but it’s much worse. Monsters in the daylight.

I’ve been playing this Township game but I don’t plan on putting in a building for 12. Every now and then I’ll get a little town message that says if it’s built, the workers get hired with no interview. 😳

This is so unhinged and unbelievable that I had trouble wrapping my mind around what they did.
