I remember waiting over an hour to catch D’Angelo at AfroPunk, right before he dropped Black Messiah. He just walked onto the stage with Questlove, with no introduction, and just started playing some music. One of my most memorable concert experiences ever.
Sad to hear that we lost D’Angelo.

Superman is…pretty good. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed it. For anyone who questions his relevancy in the 21st century, this movie is your answer.

If the Knicks are to progress into a championship team, firing coach Thibs is the first step. I appreciate all that he has done to rebuild the roster. But we need someone to elevate NY to the next level.

Some unfortunate lapses with the Knicks defense and judgement calls. The Pacers are not the better team. It’s somewhat even between the two.

Sinners is the type of movie you can only make if you have an authentic connection to, and respect for, the Black experience. And that’s oftentimes missing in the modern Black cinema landscape.

I honestly don’t understand white people dancing. I’m always trying to figure out if they are having a seizure, or perhaps choking on something.

Consumer-facing "A.i." is not only a trash product and theft and bad for human society and the individual human soul, it strongly appears to be another damn scam that's gonna screw up a lot of people's financial lives.
Some astonishing numbers in here:
-OpenAI loses $2 for every $1 it makes
-OpenAI projects annual losses of $14 billion by 2026
-To break even OpenAI needs to increase revenue 25x in just 5 years
-33% of VC portfolios are committed to AI
-5 AI-heavy stocks account for 29% of the S&P 500's value

I want people to understand this.
For many of them, democracy ended when Obama was elected twice and Black Lives Matter rose to prominence.
This is them “fixing” a system that felt broken and newly unsafe to them.

What we all seemingly failed to understand is just how many of our "countrymen" were perfectly willing to resort to treason to end democracy. And all in service of a convicted felon and lifelong conman who wasn't even very good at it.
