Last night was an emotional rollercoaster but we got through it. There was crying. I didn’t cry but I barely held it together. They even showed my old episode of “A Beautiful Resistance” from 2020. Talk about a throwback. I was instantly transported back to my mindset living under COVID lockdown

I first started reading “Calvin & Hobbes” in the Boston Globe while I was a 5th grader at the Josiah Quincy School. I started collecting trade paper backs as a teenager. I have these left & divided up the others—i.e. “Yukon Ho!”—between my nephew & niece who my younger brother & I introduced them to

I was District 7 Spelling Bee Champion in the Boston Public Schools as a 1st, 2nd & 3rd grader between the 1981-82 and 1983-84 school years. After winning multiple spelling bees—the District 7 Final was in the Quincy auditorium—the Citywide Spelling Bee for your grade was in City Hall. I lost all 3.

SMU for real created an activation outside of a Boston mall last night to coincide with playing Boston College this afternoon? Do they do that everywhere, I wonder? The city isn’t that invested in Boston College or their athletics anymore even though it’s in the ACC.

A documentary I was in about the 2021 Boston mayoral race “A Boston (R)Evolution” is running on GBH right now. I was just talking about how few people have seen it just 6 hours ago…

I’ll be on Java With Jimmy with Malia Lazu discussing the state of Black politics in Boston between 12:30 and 1:30 via GBH. At least it’s not back to back meetings like the rest of my week has been.

There is a MASSIVE puddle outside of Dumpling Palace on Mass. Ave near Berklee College Of Music that I totally didn’t see in time to avoid it. Looks like when I get back home I’m gonna have to change to my 3rd pair of socks tonight…

I get paid to know about it, teach about it, write about it AND talk about it. Sometimes it's a lecture, or a panel, or an interview either in podcast form or in a documentary or a docuseries. You don't need to know about all that, just trust me when I tell you. It happens.
