I was sending reminders of our Zoom calls as a group text but some said they either didn’t get it or don’t like being put in a group. I hated the idea of sending one text to 20+ people because it’s tedious.

Fortunately, somebody already came up with a solution… and it works! 🫡

Tell me why I just get a call asking if I wanted to participate in this community basketball program.

Talking about coaching!

I played ball all my life but I never coached before. That’s a totally different hat but I’m more than happy to try.

I had never heard of it but after reading Sandra Laing’s wiki you realize how terrible her situation had to be.

"Armed federal agents in military fatigues busted down their doors overnight, pulling men, women and children from their apartments, some of them naked, residents and witnesses said."

Jones, 27, is among the residents left at 7500 S. South Shore Drive who are trying to piece together what remains after an early morning, high-powered federal immigration raid led to the arrests of dozens of their neighbors at their South Shore apartment building.

Armed federal agents in military fatigues busted down their doors overnight, pulling men, women and children from their apartments, some of them naked, residents and witnesses said. Agents approached or entered nearly every apartment in the five-story building, and U.S. citizens were among those detained for hours.

When he got home from work, Jones said he entered his unit to find all of his electronics and furniture missing, and all of his clothes and shoes thrown on the floor. Jones said he had no idea who took his belongings and hadn’t received answers from Chicago police.

“I’m pissed off,” Jones said. “I feel defeated because the authorities aren’t doing anything.”

On Wednesday, toys, shoes and food were still in piles in the building’s hallways. Property managers were seen throwing mattresses and broken doors into dumpsters.

Yeah, I did peep the ending too. Fwiw they got enough time if they still decide to go for it. I doubt it’ll happen. But honestly? I think the movie can stand on its own.

I finally saw The Harder They Fall. I just need to know why they do my young dawg (Beckwourth) like that?

Secondly, I find it interesting how everyone had an alias… like Nat Love aka Deadwood Dick. Even today we still carry on that tradition. 🎬📽️

Seriously, I watched some reviews for HIM… and people don’t like it. Tony Baker’s review reminded me that some folks don’t care for symbolism, but Lucas Blue’s review was cool considering I like hearing people break these kinds of films/stories down. You kind of have to to understand them. 📽️🎬
