I'm unlikely to join one of those Twitter knock off sites, but y'all can always find me on IG. It's like...70% news and social justice; 20% memes and webcomics; and 10% miscellaneous personal shit, pictures, and workout videos. https://t.co/4Zw8BLdqXi

I been writing. I been writing. Last night I finished the first full draft of my second book. Looking back, I can't believe I wrote two books in 18 months. This one will be coming your way late 2026.

Have you missed me? I've been writing. And now my book, The Shades of Black Folk, is available for pre-order! https://t.co/pzTFqACnCZ

I've come across some truly wild stories while writing this colorism book, but this is definitely the wildest. https://t.co/6cgc34dWCi

I posted this on Facebook. In times of acute political crisis people begin to ask "what can I do?" This is a great time to draw people into organizing so I made this list of concrete steps people can take to "do" something.

As the threat of ICE raids looms, remember: DON'T HELP THE FUCKING COPS! Saying "I don't know" doesn't cost you anything. Make the piggies sniff out their own leads.

Listen, I don't use TikTok either, but that's not the point. Regardless of whether you use the app, you should be alarmed by your government's fascist hypocrisy and misplaced priorities.

Over the last two weeks, Sam Darnold has remembered who he is: Sam Darnold.

I love that NFL coaches have been calling so many designed QB runs this weekend. Don't take Lamar Jackson or Josh Allen or Jayden Daniels and try to turn them into Peyton Manning! Use what makes them unique!

Man, I hope everybody who wanted Lamar Jackson to change positions feels bad about all of their sports opinions.

One weird thing about the Simpsons characters not aging is the adults are millennial aged but still have Gen X mannerisms. It's like the show is still culturally set in the 80s.

I can't think of a post-season football game I've had less interest in watching than Notre Dame v Penn State.

For all my statistically inclined people, I just reviewed a manuscript that tried to use outcome variables from 2000 and mediator variables from later years. You can't do that. The mediator can't mediate if it came after the outcome!
