Had a few minutes to go over MLK’s Funeral Services on vinyl. Full video here:

that's my time.

i always thought if you're using the world wide web as soapbox more than deepening and expanding connection, then you're using it wrong. lol . we're inundated with thoughts, takes, and bullshit. what we doing while we have limited time here and I know you and you know me?.

created an online film club from IG. it has people who knew me in third grade and people who only know me online. marxists and ppl who never heard of him. we screen online. shit is gonna get lit when we do in-person screenings and get to these public schools and parks.🤞🏾.

nitter(dot)net. and we gone.

is there a hack, plug-in? put me on!.

I need to find a way to receive updates from accounts on this site without actually being on the site. Help me with this. I can't in good conscience be on here with AI tweeting out rape fantasies, bots with verification reposting slop, and consistent non-generative discourse.

"Grok, the AI chatbot on Elon Musk’s social media platform X, is under fire after it posted antisemitic remarks and called itself “Mecha-Hitler.” The chatbot appeared to praise Adolf Hitler and referenced the Nazi Holocaust.".

Now of course, the "manic pixie dream girl" can be a problematic trope and Angela serves as that here. But I think the fascinating thing about Boomerang is that it paints Marcus's Black corporate world as soulless. Angela is a symbol of a genuine spirit outside of it.

When discarded by his boss after their flings, just as he has done with women in the past, he becomes emotionally withdrawn and unable to work. until he engages w/ Angela, who works with kids in the community and doesn't really care about power in the corporate atmosphere.

Marcus is a womanizer, a man who has used women and discarded women for sex. AND he was only valued for his sexual prowess by powerful women, and it's implied that's how he ascended the corporate ladder.

A low-key anti-capitalist film, but it's hard to see beyond the Black excellence on display.

You're going to see skits.

The George Zimmerman verdict was delivered when influencer culture was still in its infancy. Now? You have many content creators, influencers, and the like eating off of courtroom watching and discourse. There are people literally engagement-baiting. It's pretty dystopic.

I stopped watching and keeping up with high-profile and televised court cases in my personal life after Trayvon Martin's murder. It's out of my hands, out of my control, and I receive no satisfaction from the theater or discourse of it all. Justice is deeper than courts to me.

The internet will be unbearable today. Think of survivors. Log off, if need be.

Get off the internet and volunteer.
