He did all his songs on my training playlist. I feel like working out now, heart rate all elevated💪🏾💪🏾

THIS is incredible!!!! Kendrick 🙌🏾

The Wegmans Olive bar is unmatched 🙌🏾

Ok so New Year's Rocking Eve is soothing my millennial soul rn

I thought you should know that in 2024 New Jersey, Minnesota, Illinois, California, and Maryland have all enacted legislation that bans book bans & censorship in both, school and public libraries, and protects librarians.

"communist street marchers" is what the 1965 alabama legislature called people singing "we shall overcome." (via: archive.org/stream/alaba...)

Wow that Michael Vick post is bringing the liberal racists out in DROVES. He went to jail and has dedicated thousands of hours and millions of his own dollars working with the ASPCA to make amends for his crimes. Certain people don't believe in rehabilitation, let alone decarceration.

I can’t tell you all how badly I need a decent win. Things are rough.

Honestly, with it being a summer Olympics year, I really thought Sydney McLaughlin Verone or another Olympic athlete would be selected

PRINCETON, N.J. (AP) — New Jersey Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy signed a law Monday to prohibit public and school libraries from banning books in the state and to enshrine protections against civil and criminal charges for librarians who comply with the law.

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind 2 Timothy 1:7 (nkjv) Learned this at 8 with the song and never looked back.

I keep trying to write something eloquent and just being tired. History matters. Philosophy matters. Languages and literature matter. Indigenous studies matter. Arts and humanities and social sciences matter. All of them. Signed, a physicist

At the top of the year I made a bingo card of things I wanted to do/accomplish. Realized I hit bingo today! Can’t wait to see what else happens this last quarter ☺️

I don't trust people who steal their parent's joy. Karma will get your ass.

Public library energy is the best energy. Like here is all the knowledge we could find, it's been meticulously organized and vetted and it will cost you nothing today, welcome to the absolute pinnacle of human civic evolution, feel free to pull up any bean bag chair you like

I hope I can articulate this properly and without offense: Does this ridiculous hysteria about trans women being in bathrooms also seems to kinda reveal that people think men are just inherently dangerous around women?

i either read for 8 hours straight or don’t touch a book for 8 months there is no in between

They should've never received the bailout(s). Could you imagine how new industry disruptors could have progressed air travel in the last decade while the majors regrouped in 2008?

Remember that libraries are proof that not every goddamned thing needs to be “for profit.”

Our food not being safe is so exhausting

Being on bluesky without fighting through a sea of bots and ads made me realize I don’t dislike social media, I disliked not being able to be social on social media

Such a great era for r&b....

My 10yo just sent me this YouTube short and I feel like I'm doing something right bc how does he even know youtube.com/shorts/dPSbG...

Polio has been detected in wastewater in NY for some time - so it’s out there and probably elsewhere too. For those of us on the older side who were vaccinated against polio decades ago, the CDC recommends a booster. Check with your healthcare provider to see if you should get one.

I needed the chiefs to lose but kinda feels like they're gonna use it to go super saiyan until they get the Superbowl dub

BlueSky is filling a void that 35+ up been looking for. Social media should be a cool distraction. Not stressful and annoying. Folks wanna laugh and have healthy banter and wit and sarcasm. A feeling of community. Not all these bots and ads and weird ass algorithms and engagement farming

you CAN delete your threads account without impacting your Instagram account. It's confusing because it's the same username but threads can be deactivated and deleted independently of ig

The most important thing in writing is to finish. A finished thing can be fixed. A finished thing can be published. A finished thing can be made into a movie. An unfinished thing is just a dream. And dreams fade if you don't hold on tight enough. So finish the thing.

Twitter was good while it was good. Feels great to be deactivated.
