Watching Stevie sing 🎶 “All I do is think about you” at the Obama Center Opening, then the camera cutting to Malia singing the lyrics to her Mama is *one* of the moments making my day.

I am so excited by Kameirah’s winning doodle. She is the 2025-2026Google National Winner! 💫🎉 she says it represents “her superpower—her hair and it's deep connection to family and culture.” congrats to Kameirah!
Y’all know this is not normal right? And his behavior is not meaningless. When we watch behavior like this repeatedly we eventually ignore it & move to something “more important.” And is there an agreement w/the other press corps to not say a word?
The Tennessee Holler @thetnholler.bsky.social · 2mo agoWATCH: @andersoncooper shows video of a Trump throwing a tantrum and being a misogynistic pig towards @kaitlancollins — and other female reporters (As the rest of the press stands there and says nothing)
Nancy Mace relates an anecdote from a “friend” who says she received an “I Voted” sticker in Spanish. She then equates this to “illegals” who don’t speak English being able to vote in SC. #SCpolitics #ridiculousness
3 SC Republican candidates backed out of the SCETV debate! Mace, Norman & Kimbrell are the only ones who showed up. Evette, Wilson & Reddy chose not to participate. There’s lots of nastiness being passed between the candidates. Lots.
I have been listening to sleep music every night for a few months. My Spotify playlists are now messed up. Suggestions? ( Generationally, I am a Boomer w/eclectic tastes —Jill Scott to Joy Oladokun to Tiera Kennedy, Ruby Ibarra...)

I confess that I am having a hard time watching the Cavs/Knicks game. I am a former Clevelander & my brother who moved to SC with me was a 50+ year season’s ticket holder. We ‘re glad they made it this far.

Anil Dash@anildash.com · 3mo agoIs anybody doing any good writing aimed at people born in this century, designed to explain what norms were like (or what we tried to have them be like) before the recent ascendancy of the authoritarians? I keep having to explain this, and would like to be able to point to clear descriptions.

I have decided to go all in on WNBA this season. I need something to go deep on besides the demise of what we have affectionately called freedom. Also, rooting for amazing women athletes?! Hell yes! I am also going to follow all things Allyson Felix as she readies herself for maybe another Olympics.
I had a mindfuck/epiphany moment this morning - I really need to do a disabled at midlife series. Today's moment - I've never considered the able-bodiedness of my friends changing. We're just entering midlife, & I'm realizing - I may not be the only physically disabled friend
