Nice Surprise #GNX #KendrickLamar

A lot of this unfortunately has to do with storytelling and the kinds of stories we are taught to read, share and value.

Jay-Z lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice Hov beat that obvious shakedown attempt I hope he sues them for the stress it causes the fam

@charlee-buns.bsky.social how are you doing today Charlee?

EXCITING NEWS! I’m not the only author in the family. My 5 year old daughter’s first picture book, UNICORN & MONKEY is now available for Pre-order. Christina came up with the story all by herself while playing with her toys. I only illustrated the adventure. Ages 0-7 a.co/d/4FMuL72

Rest in Power, Lorraine O’Grady. So many of us working in Black creative traditions are her intellectual children. We have been lucky. It is a big and sad thing to lose her and Nikki Giovanni so close together.

Slow dancing to “Dodger Blue”.. Romance.

Interesting

Did I just stumble upon a gift to myself??????

One guy rebranded his hateful tweets about Black women into a whole writing career and when his old transphobic tweets about Serena Williams resurfaced, he deleted his whole account and never came back

Just because you can't do everything doesn't mean that you can't do something. Your 'something' matters to 'someone.'

So the McDonald employee who turned in Luigi Mangione was trying to get the $50,000 reward but it was denied because they didn’t call the tip line 😭 Then the McDonald has a 1 star rating because of a “rat” in the kitchen Nancy, I hope you learn your lesson. I wanted to see this play out

I think - EYE THINK, this is opinion - part of Jay being so hot he fired that statement off was because Buzbee refiled the lawsuit the week of his daughter's movie premiere, and he probably figures that was intentional (and it probably WAS intentional) and that pissed him off more than anything.

THE STORY IS FABRICATED. Not only was I alive and on the scene at the time, but the Getty photo wire proves it's a lie. Jay-Z was at an after-party in NJ. Diddy was at an after-party at Lotus in NYC, OVER AN HOUR AWAY WITH TRAFFIC. Tony Buzbee is also being sued for extortion & has been censured.

Nikki Giovanni was one of my first interviews in a much earlier (and far more brief) iteration of Naima-the-professional-writer. She was immensely kind, open, and generous with her time. She had such youthful energy but felt like a wise sage simultaneously. That was one of her gifts.

HBO/Max released a Nikki Giovani project ‘Going To Mars’ earlier this year. It won an Emmy. If you haven’t seen it, it’s still available on MAX.

She has been influential in my life even before I knew who she was. Rest in Power #NikkiGiovanni

This is true

So many thoughts ✍🏿

Looks like a breakdown of voting percentages in the form of a meme

Oh, lie again
