I picked the worst possible time to try to buy smartwatches for my kids. I put them in the cart last night but got busy and didn’t finish the checkout process. Now, the whole Apple site is down for some pre-order and I can’t get back to it. I don’t want your new thing, Apple! I want old things!

Even when life takes us in different directions, even when we can no longer be in each other’s lives, my love doesn’t just disappear. Because love is unconditional, but access to me is not.

I want to see the people I love thrive—I want to see them in prosperity, in success, and in happiness. Love, for me, has always been unconditional.

I’ve been reflecting a lot lately on love, loss, and the lessons that come with them. The deep pains that have come with these lessons have given me a solemn clarity.

I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve been called a deadbeat dad, or lectured by the social media trolls & bigots about how all Black men abandon their families. The truth is, I’ve been married to the same queen for nearly 30 years, and together we raised two brilliant children.

I had plans today that I was really looking forward to, but things changed unexpectedly. As I was trying to work it out, someone needed my help, and I found myself shifting from frustration to gratitude for my wrecked plans. Weird how that happens.

The first thing Virginia Spanberger did after being sworn in as Governor of Virginia was repeal Youngkin’s executive order requiring state and local law enforcement to cooperate with ICE. This is the kind of leadership Democratic governors nationwide should be emulating.

Even if it were true, he shot a woman in the face three times and then called her a “fucking bitch.” He murdered a woman on video and put himself in harms way. In my opinion, if he bled internally it was not enough.

Don't bother arguing about whether ICE is a police force or a military force. It's neither. It behaves as a disorganized, violent mob, cursing, shouting contradictory orders, and attacking unarmed citizens on a whim. It is deployed to create fear and chaos, not to enforce laws or establish order.

Today, as headlines swirl about the unprecedented U.S. military operation in Venezuela, and as our leaders debate constitutional authority, it is more important than ever to remember what unites us. At least in writing, both parties—Democrat and Republican—agree on foundational values:

Forbes says there are 2,000+ billionaires richer than the women most folks complain about. If you’re only critiquing* the women—especially the ones toward the bottom of the list—you’re part of the problem. *This often includes straight up degradation and shaming, which isn’t helpful critique.

America is bailing out Argentina, while Argentine farmers sell soybeans to China instead of American farmers, thereby bankrupting them, which is why America also have to bail out American farmers. If this is considered winning, I fear what losing looks like.

Political violence is always immoral and always counterproductive for a healthy democracy. It solves nothing. It only leads to further violence and ultimately enables scapegoating of vulnerable communities. Committing acts of violence against those who disagree with us helps no one.
