Women are everything. Everything they have to do is infinitely harder for them than us men. I realized today the only time that it may be harder for us is when we are standing up using the bathroom while on a flight with an insane amount of turbulence.

Being married to a first-generation Indian, we often reflect on the model minority myth and how people of her descent are conditioned by it before they even arrive. This is just scratching the surface, but it’s a good read nonetheless. slate.com/technology/2...

Unfortunately, MAGA Indian Americans Should Have Seen This Coming

The racist posts from Musk’s DOGE staffer show a widening gap in the GOP between its base and its wealthy technocratic elite.

Did I already miss the $$$4U chatter on #blacksky? I’m not seeing a peep about it.

My wife just got an email from Elon Musk urging her to take a buyout and quit her job doing research at the VA. To be clear: ELON FUCKING MUSK sent an email to a Dementia researcher with the US Government asking her to quit. Bruh.

Well well well, looks like Black History month is happening anyway.

Watching so many people (that I would never expect, mind you) take such a hard turn to the right has me thinking: Is there something going on that we don’t know about? Like something way bigger than we can imagine? What do they know that we don’t?

Listen, I’m a 42 year old who somehow got addicted to Tik Tok. After the short ban I decided to not open it back up. I’m not missing anything right?

My #BlackSky people, get your passport and travel. Save your money—forget the Jordans. Stretch your legs outside of the U.S. I can’t express enough how much is happening outside of our country and how much there is to learn through travel. Happy MLK Day!

DOGE’s first round of layoffs includes Vivek. When will these lames realize it doesn’t matter how many of us you step on or how well you tap dance—you aren’t invited? Seriously. As soon as your color no longer has use, you are out.

Hey #blacksky I just want to make sure that we are all in agreement that tomorrow is MLK day and MLK day only correct?

Some recently said they aren’t a republican or a democrat, conservative or liberal. They are simply black. And I felt that. #blacksky

Feels like the #blacksky community is an actual black community. Loving this.

Crazy to know that dumb ass Americans didn’t realize Tik Tok was only 20% Chinese owned. Also 20% US owned and 60% foreign investors.

Layover in Toronto on my way to Amsterdam. I just ate some Poutine to celebrate Aubrey’s multiple L’s.

Winding down for the holidays had me reflecting on the founder grind—especially as a Black founder pitching VCs. I wrote my first Medium piece about the pitch cycle, bias, and why empathy + equity matter. Check it out: medium.com/@probablyash...
