Used my drive to Pretoria to listen to the new Samthing Soweto and it’s such a treat. ‘325’ deserves a music video. Also I love albums with skits, bring back skits. Also we have a Blxckie and Samthing Soweto collaboration in our lifetime 😍

So Zelensky did everything Trump asked him to do, signed away mineral rights, agreed to an unconditional ceasefire, and the U.S. still cut off previously funded weapons supplies, leaving Ukrainian cities defenseless against Russian missile strikes. A lesson to all here.
BREAKING: White House confirms it has halted weapons that Ukraine was scheduled to receive, including PAC3 Patriots, 155mm artillery rounds, GMLRS, Stinger, AIM-7, and Hellfire missiles. @AnnaKelly47 tells me: “This decision was made to put America’s interests first following a

Everytime I feel myself getting excited for Lewis Hamilton’s first race at home in red, I remember what car he’s driving. Then I relax quite quickly.

A farmer quoted in an Al Jazeera piece said, “I’m glad the world is taking an interest in our matcha … but in the short term, it’s almost a threat – we just can’t keep up,” A Tokyo tea shop said they now “refuse to sell large quantities to customers suspected of reselling…”

The current matcha craze is depleting Japanese tea farms which are unable to keep up with demand. Recently the Dubai chocolate trend led to a pistachio shortage. And is our collective plan to just consume ourselves and the planet to destruction? 💀

Between this stuff, the camps for migrants in Florida, and giving ICE the budget of a European nation's military the US is pretty much entering 1930s Germany territory. Not just unfathomably evil but also, the country is just never going to recover from the next 4 years
Stripping citizenship is the first step to death camps. This is a pathway to legal non-personhood. It is a way to produce a legal void into which people can be dropped and then killed. Is this hyperbole? No. It is at the heart of Arendt’s insistence on a right to have rights.

The ‘Watch me (whip/nae nae)’ guy, Silento, recently started serving 30 years in prison for killing his cousin in 2021. He’s also serving a consecutive 5 year sentence for shooting at two people. In 2020 he attacked two people in Los Angeles with an axe 💀

SisQó belongs in all the conversations about great male vocalists. ‘Unleash the dragon’ is a perfect R&B album. Dru Hill has HITS!
Cynthia Erivo has Sisqo singing “The Thong Song” on her list of favorite vocal performances ever and…valid. He really was singing his ass off for no reason lol

When ICE started kidnapping people and deporting them without due process, lawyers in particular said citizens were next, and MAGA said that would never happen. In the real world, what you allow for your neighbour is what you allow for yourself.
Trump just floated deporting people who were born in the U.S. — saying some criminals are "not new to our country, they're old to our country." "Many of them were born in our country. I think we ought to get them the hell out of here, too, you want to know the truth, so maybe

One of the defining features of totalitarianism was how its leaders made war on experts, like the Soviet bureaucrats who boosted Lysenkoism. Dictatorial regimes *hate* experts, because experts reach conclusions based on evidence, not political expediency.
