I want politics to be about a better everyday life.
Here's what that can look like:
You made it, you own it
You always own your intellectual property, mailing list, and subscriber payments. With full editorial control and no gatekeepers, you can do the work you most believe in.
I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾♀️.
Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!
Don't leave anything for later.
Later, the coffee gets cold.
Later, you lose interest.
Later, the day turns into night.
Later, people grow up.
Later, people grow old.
Later, life goes by.
Later, you regret not doing something... when you had the chance.

Of course advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.
The Secretary is unfit to lead.

Pam Bondi said on Fox that the FBI’s arrest of a county judge is “sending a very strong message.” Yes, Pam, and that message is, this country is being ruled by fascist traitors.
Stop writing to impress everyone.
Start writing for one person who matters.
This has helped me through many writer’s blocks and maybe it’ll help you.

President Biden at the Pope’s funeral in Italy today. Awesome that he’s there! Biden is a good, decent man who cares about others deeply.

Educate yourself.
When a question about a certain topic pops up, google it. Watch movies and documentaries. When something sparks your interest, read about it.
Read, read, read.
Study, learn, and stimulate your brain.
Don't just rely on the school system; educate your beautiful mind.

They're physically removing the Greensboro lunch counter from the Smithsonian—the actual counter where four brave students sparked a national movement in 1960. This isn't just about museum artifacts. It's about who gets to exist in America's story, whose courage is remembered, and whose resistance is honored.
Dear Tired Black Educator,
Somewhere along the way, we were taught that we have to outwork everyone just to be seen.
That if we were just a little more prepared, a little more polished, a little more perfect,
maybe…
then they’d recognize our brilliance.
Maybe then they’d see our hearts. Maybe then they’d finally treat us like we

The Loneliness No One Talks About
No one warns you about the loneliness that comes with growing.
The silence when old friendships stop fitting, but new ones haven’t formed.
The ache of outgrowing places, conversations, even versions of yourself.
Growth is beautiful, but it can also be isolating.
Keep growing anyway. You’ll find your kindred spirits.
Still not sure what this Substack thing even is or how to gain impressions. All I know to do is post here and there and just try and settle myself into this community and perhaps everything will work out on its own….

I refuse to be the kind of person who loses their mind over a delayed train or lets a spilled coffee set the tone for the whole day.
I want to be the one who stays composed, who sees the good even when things don’t go as planned. The kind of person who breathes through the little chaos and still finds beauty in how the day unfolds.
I want to be soft. I want to be steady.
So the Republican Party has historically blocked:
-Paid sick leave
-Paid family & medical leave
-Universal childcare
-Universal pre-K
-Expanded Child Tax Credit
-Programs to support reproductive health
And they're wondering why more people aren't having children?

Pope Francis lifted the world as he led the Church with his profound moral voice. As he returns to God, may his call to humility and concern for the least among us continue to resound.

The "inflation is good for you, you ungrateful peasants" narrative is going to wear thin pretty fast. Maybe the NYT can bring Judith Miller back in to help gin up a nice little wag-the-dog war somewhere to distract from the proles getting uppity.
