Today, @washingtonpost.com is hosting a Global Women’s Summit.
Meanwhile, the @postguild.bsky.social is protesting and raising awareness about the fact that the Washington Post illegally fired me, its only Black woman opinion columnist, for doing my job.
Salute to the Guild.
Shame on the Post.

Mood.
I was asked in 2019 What I would say to Mohammed Bin Salman.
I said it then and I’ll say it again— I hope the spirit of Jamal Khashoggi haunts MBS for the rest of his life.

Found this 2019 clip from 100 days after Jamal Khashoggi was killed.
I was asked by @glamour.com’s Sam Barry what I would say to Mohammed Bin Salman if I had the chance to face him again (I have met him twice).
Here was my answer.

This morning’s swordplay.
The joy of learning something new (and on your own) is permission to just focus on how something sounds and feels.
I’m a sensory person. I find the sound of wind, metal quite satisfying, and meditative in the morning. #jian #straightsword

These days, sometimes I just have the urge to sit in a corner on the floor, like putting myself in personal time out, lol.
Butas long as I have pens and my sword, some good friends and family — and ARTEMIS…
I’ll be okay.
Thanks everyone. Artemis and I ❤️ yall.

We need a muscular progressivist visions. We need to be strong to build the world we want.

As a Halloween baby, he hates costumes. His sitter tried to get him to cooperate.
After many attempts, the pineapple hat was a no-go.
