just sang "I'm not a trad wife I just cook a lot" in a Big Pun voice while pickling onions if you want to narrow in on my exact demographic
Amazed lifestyle people haven’t incorporated climate change into their fall coverage. “The perfect fall bikini” “seven skimpy Halloween costumes for when it’s 90 in the shade” “cool salads for another hot Thanksgiving”
Just passed the season’s first spirit Halloween, can’t wait to stop by to buy the most terrifying costume of 2026: bagged salad mix
dying from lack of attention disease. it's fatal. sorry.
We’re also funding death squads but what’s really offensive is that somewhere out there a poor person might be able to eat
Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.
It’s always nice to see Eric Adams get welcomed with warm words like “you belong in prison”

Apparently DEI was the only thing standing between us and death lettuce
Michigan reports two deaths in ongoing cyclosporiasis outbreak reut.rs/4w4bd4E
Lockdown people are so funny. They pull out their hair at the fact that schools were closed for five minutes, and then you ask them if they actually want to educate poor and minority children and they’re like of course not
I love when a restaurant plays such good music that you’re like I live here now
Next version of the Odyssey I want to see: written, directed and starring Danny McBride
I miss when actual arts criticism existed and people were paid to do it so people didn’t have to spend two days on a lady who was like duh, black actors are kind of all the same
this is nonsense! and kinda insulting!
"When I’m walking or running...I feel like I’m held back by the arbitrary limits of my body...I don’t get that mind-to-body connection that I get on a bike. It’s almost like having a new body to glide through the road with. Freedom.” My latest: www.theguardian.com/culture/2026...
Black motorcycle clubs come alive in the summer: ‘The best way to build community is on two wheels’
Building on decades-long traditions, Black bikers host rides, picnics and other gatherings nearly every summer weekend to celebrate community and freedom

*bane voice* “they’re going to expect one of us in the wreckage, brother”
Evangelist Whitney Lynn says she preaches on planes because she loves “a captive audience.” She's not alone. It's becoming a trend. If spreading your message requires listeners who can't escape, maybe it's not as compelling as you think. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/christian-...
I am wide open to sub-optimal Hollywood adaptations of anything I’ve written
The middle class, 1970: steady job, nice paycheck, health insurance, retirement The middle class, 2026: no regular paycheck, no health insurance, wtf is retirement, thank god I get to make 80 hours of video a week that the algorithm might sink
Is this why people think BS followers equates to cash.
In a hotel room, watching tv, thinking of taking up a sword to fight the war against the existence of motion smoothing
I enjoy following Very Clever @kashana.blacksky.app. The Payback (kashanacauley.com) did not disappoint. The grind of living in debt, facing a brutal loan industry with new-age-obsessed, fashion-challenged, overly smug enforcers makes one ready for revenge. Clever and thought-provoking throughout.

He, Jimmy Hoffa, and Elvis are all doing better every day
Sen. Mitch McConnell “continues to improve in rehab” as he remains absent six weeks after a fall, according to a new report
We admire great works of art, architecture, and engineering. Why not cancer?

“I have no idea how to get around chat gpt’s refusal to let me rip off other authors other than to actually write prose myself”
Nope. No, you haven’t.
This is why I hate convos about the "creator economy" and entertainment; all the "just make it and put it on YouTube!" bs. Destroying the avenues that pay people a living wage while cycling through an endless stream of desperate kids isn't "democratization;" it's just devaluing labor.
Wild watching a man who promotes hustle still try to promote hustle in the work twice as hard to get zero because they’re done with you era.
Also, the materiality cannot be overstated. Black people are struggling financially. And not in the broke kind of way but in the existential “they are trying to send us back to plantation kind of way”. The hustle has been thoroughly knocked, my man.
I have awful news. Youman Wilder, the Harlem baseball coach who courageously protected his kids from an ICE raid and said he was "willing to die" for them, very tragically, passed away this week Wilder's sister started a fundraiser set up to help with his burial: www.gofundme.com/f/honoring-y...
