    Every single one of you can go to hell.

    A big — but quiet — crowd gathers at DC Council to complain DC is getting too noisy with bucket drummers, shouters etc especially near Capital One Center. More people live downtown now and they want reasonable limits on all that noise.

    Me: “Why do you think you and your buddies had a rough day today?” : “I don’t think that.” “The teacher said that you did.” “We did!” “Why do you think that happened?” “I don’t think that happened, I KNOW it happened.”

    This kind of white person can always be counted on for a dated and/or bizarre cultural reference.

    I move out of my dorm today. If this bill goes unpaid, I literally won’t be able to attend this university, see my final grades, or receive my transcripts, (so I can’t transfer/continue my education ANYWHERE). I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place. Retweet for me! 🙏🏿

    In the spirit of and the holidays, please check out and share my YouCaring to help me stay in school. If you can, donate. It took me all day to be honest with myself and write down my circumstances, but here it is.

    While is getting so much attention... just saying - my girl is trying to raise money to do one on her battle with post-partum depression. This is something we truly need to talk more about.

    Also, if you are looking for a Black Santa in the borough of Brooklyn, we’ve been visiting this brother at the Atlantic Center for the past 5 years. He’s there until 12/24.

    Not much of a holiday person, but I love this part: our yearly pilgrimage to Black Santa!

    I’d like to see what else is on the menu.

    grace and mercy towards those that would rather see us oppressed. Now that’s my type of America.

    I am not disparaging the earnest nature of our empathy, just noting that we routinely extend grace towards those who would not return the favor and reflecting on what that says about our relationship to the world around us.

    I was one of those Black folks who empathized with Keaton, as it hit me personally. His family? I was taught the sins of the parents don't pass down to the children.

    Also felt it reading the story that the young Uber driver told about taking care of her passenger for the weekemd after she’d been played by a guy.

    Even before Keaton’s family was revealed to be a steaming pile of Trumpettes, I felt something gnawing at me about the situation. I’ll only say that the grace and empathy that Black folks offer up to others is something to behold.
