Love that The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder is back. Seeing Dijonay gather the sorority girls, lol. They should start aging the kids up tho. Let Penny and her pplz be 16 and get thru HS. 1 yr added, 1 season at a time. #Blacksky

...or maybe they're playing too many games with too small of rosters?
WNBA players have suffered 141 injuries since opening day in May, according to kinesiologist Dr. Lucas Seehafer.
This is not a woman’s league problem. It’s an officiating problem.
When refs allow unusually rough play it doesn’t just cause direct injuries but indirect ones.

Column | WNBA officiating is no longer an annoyance. It’s a threat to the game.
Referees’ failure to rein in physical play hurts players, hurts the league and hurts fans.

Ironheart really deserved 1-2 more episodes to flesh out characters and relationships. If Disney/Marvel let them have a season 2, the series should have 8 episodes.

Every Black person ain't for liberation.
Some are just bootlickers.
Some are cowards.
Some don't even like other Blk ppl.
It's always been that way so don't be shocked.
But, be really thoughtful about the Blk folks you look to for political/cultural analysis of these times and paths fwd. #Blacksky

Did anyone think it would stop at allowing Israel to shoot + kill Palestinian and other Arab and Muslim journalists?? To kidnap and terrorize them+ their families? The chickens always come home and police will always revert to their original purpose.
Did the LAPD deliberately shoot the reporter with rubber bullets?

I know one thing. If I were a young blonde, white woman, and a police officer shot me ON CAMERA, my settlement would be large enough to have its own itemized line on LA's yearly budget.

the fact that people were told “today you are going to an elementary school to lie to teachers and kidnap kids” and didn’t immediately tell their bosses to go fuck themselves is all you need to know about why ICE should be dismantled
BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”
They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

That would be the better story than the dystopian drivel we're regularly shown by most media and entertainment companies.
Nostalgia in politics can work for more than one thing, it doesn't only have to be a guy saying "Don't you miss being racist" it could be a different guy saying "Remember when people had pensions"
