Are you ever sitting on your couch with your pet and you move "too much" or "too quickly' and wake up said pet and they give you "the look" Well I was trying to get comfortable reading (The Autobiography of Malcolm X) and now Pepper is taking a bath so I guess we are friends again.

Another fun find in a used book. This time it was from a Pango order. Unfortunately only one leaf. 😂

The NFL is removing “End Racism” but keeping “Choose Love”? These things are completely interconnected. To choose love, you have to end racism.

My publisher sent me two copies of this very cool edition of DEATH OF THE AUTHOR. I’m keeping one and figuring out who gets my other one. 🤔

Note: I decided to leave the sound on. Cats wrasslin’, daughter is somewhere in the house guffawing at something, it is what it is, lol.😆

A gay guy, a Black man, and a woman walk into a flight deck— that’s not the beginning of a joke, but just a regular day at work! There was so much DEI on this plane that we could hardly get in the air. Luckily my limp wrists were able to wrestle the heavy jet back to the ground 💅🏼

I was watching a video clip of Senator Sanders talking to RFK Jr and when Bobby started talking my cat for the first time ever pawed my phone to make the video go away. I agree Pepper, we don't like RFK Jr. 🤣

For the latest Unshocked episode w/ @mehdirhasan.bsky.social we talked about - what else? - shock.

How Trump is using "shock and awe" as a governing strategy and how we fight back.

It was the 1960s, and the nation’s only Black TV reporter was stuck between a rock and a hard place. Should he give Malcolm X a platform when other Civil Rights leaders called for nonviolence? Or be “respectable” and stay quiet?

February is Black History Month in the US, Canada and Germany, and LGBT+ History Month in the UK.

I’m queer, trans and half Black. You bet I’m going to be insufferably loud this month, because:

BLACK PEOPLE ARE GREAT. QUEER PEOPLE ARE GREAT. BIPOC, TRANS, DISABLED PEOPLE ARE ✨ALL✨GREAT.

We all know bigots use DEI as code for Black people. But what seldom gets mentioned is that the group that benefited from DEI the most are white women.
