Got a call this morning from a woman incarcerated at CIW, I’ve been talking to her since 2020 but it’s been a minute since I heard from her.

She let me know that she wrote a book, a screenplay, and wants to pursue a doc about prison.

What a force. Imagine if she were free.

You need to be on a path to *reduce* stress as you age, preferably starting pre-30

Because all those “weird” issues that I thought were related to age?

Most we’re gone by 40. (Physicians are incredibly ageist too and terrible at root cause…anything)…

When you’re really working, praying, manifesting, and staying focused there’s little time to entertain things that have nothing to do with you.

I can’t believe it’s been almost *NINE* years since I wrote this — my very first piece for ESPN. This story never gets old to tell. Salute to the great Lem Barney. R.I.P. Mel Farr and Marvin Gaye. R.I.P. Jay Lovinger who edited this and really put me on to so much game. 🙏🏽

Today marks 10 years since the start of the Flint Water Crisis.

A decade later, kids are still sick, the city is not done replacing lead pipes and families still haven’t seen a cent from settlement funds theguardian.com/us-news/2024/a…

Ya know, not for nothing I DID find my way back to being a writer.

I wrote about this in my book, but this album was transformational for me in MANY ways and this song in particular? Gave me the push I needed to return to my editorial roots after five years in nonprofit PR.

The graduating college class started with the pandemic and is ending with campus demonstrations—closing a four-year span defined by anxiety. 'We’ve never had a calm time when we can just focus on being kids.' on.wsj.com/3UhO7qr on.wsj.com/3UhO7qr

I know I’ve said it a million times but I’m such a fan of this younger generation. They’ve moved me to tears so many times in the last decade. They’ve had to fight for things kids shouldn’t even have to be thinking about.

Potentially bad news for the millions of TikTok fans across the country. Under what is now US law, TikTok is now forced to find a new owner within 9 months, or be banned from the United States entirely.

It’s always funny when people say women should get to be assholes like men and not be punished for it. Very similar to when someone Black does big crimes and people bring up a white counterpart. We should want to be better than those counterparts. There should be no comparison.

as someone who has a baby cousin about to graduate from UT Austin in a few weeks, this is extremely frightening to me.

it seems ironic that the Stanford administrator who sent this out is a professor of ethnic studies—a field of study that was established after student activists shut down a college campus for FIVE WHOLE MONTHS.
