Dear Black women, if lately it feels like they want our labor but not our leadership, remember this: you deserve to lead too. Too often the work is welcomed while the authority behind it is questioned. I know it and you know it. #JasmineCrockett #LetitiaJames#KamalaHarris#StaceyAbrams

A photo of Brit’s lap on Antigua. Her laptop is in the far left corner atop of a pillow, a sun hat is on her shins, and she is seated on an outdoor chaise. In the distance you can see the ocean with several boats through a fence.

One day, I’ll go on a trip and not do work. Today is not that day.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT POLITICS YOU ALREADY LEARNED WATCHING SPORTS Sports fans already know how to translate the language of power into the truth. They don’t, most of the time, but they can.

this has been knocking around my head for a while, but for real: Sports get people prepared for the bullshit of politics like few other things can channel-6.ghost.io/everything-y...

I’ve been so stressed lately, I’ve had heart palpitations and eye twitching.

I want to do a spa day and some heavy lifting more often but I had to cut my budget a few months ago so I don’t get those wellness treats on the regular anymore.

It’s harder to embed and control it without money.

I don’t even have the damn words

LMAO

I need someone to open my brain and examine why I can get more work done on a 4 hour flight than I can sometimes sitting in my office on campus for 8 hours.

This is incredible! #HistPubHealth

"As one public health official lamented, public health staff were frequently treated as the 'disquiet step-children' of local government, consigned to makeshift quarters that neither reflected nor supported their expanding mission."

TLDR, people can see through them.

"If they can't get the general population to buy into AI, they will rebrand it as a way to "lift up" minorities."

Literally all of this. TF is wrong with yall!!?!

Exactly. And shout out to editors specifically.

Oh yes. Every word.

I answered yet another survey on AI at work with this attitude in mind. There was not a lot of room for the "leave me the fuck alone" in the survey, I had to make it.

100% this. not only do I want to do my own writing and have @jamieriley.bsky.social edit me, I’m not going to contribute to the devastation of Black/brown/poor communities by billionaire parasites and their data centers

Same. Get the hell out of my computer and my head.

My sentiments exactly...

White House ballroom vote delayed amid deluge of angry public comments Over 100 people have registered to speak and more than 35,000 written comments have been sent in, the vast majority of which are negative.

Symbols matter.

If I get one more email about Claude or whomever the fuck.

1. I wanna read my own shit.

2. I wanna write my own shit.

3. I wanna pay an editor to talk me through my own shit.

4. I don’t want that AI bullshit. If you don’t use it, you lose it. And I want to hold my brain as long as possible.

This is always me!

I will pick a crazy ass route to avoid some people.

I don’t want to spend any extra time with some of you. Get away from me.

Now my faves? We lock in.

9 at this point.

Listening to your phone aloud in public should qualify you for the DSM-5. I fucking hate ya’ll asses.

“UCLA neuroscientist Maryanne Wolf has shown that deep reading, defined as sustained immersion in a text, builds the cognitive circuits required for critical analysis, empathy and perspective-taking in ways that skimming, scrolling and short-form video simply cannot.”

We identified 12 shootings by federal agents that led to the deaths or injuries of citizens & immigrants since Sept.

Nearly every time, the Trump admin blamed the injured and dead. Experts say this apparent lack of accountability demands that local authorities step up to investigate federal agents.

Lol

Rewatching Bake-Off and wanting to tell my British frenz that in Murica "flapjacks" is literally synonymous with "pancakes" and whatever this British version are looks like nothing I want to eat

They are torturing and killing people in our concentration camps, and I wish more people were actively bothered by that

In less than 24 hours I’ll be crying in the ocean! 😫🥰
