My security system gave us a Spotify style Wrapped and it annoyed me more than I would have expected. Not everything needs a yearly recap.

Some people love to complain without any desire to make changes that would improve their situation. Don’t let them soak up all your sunshine.

Sometimes I forget how fortunate I am to work with people I can have fun with. We're going to work our booties off, but we'll be cutting up and cracking jokes while we do 😂

I love when I find a book that makes me eager to sneak in as many reading moments as I can.

If you’re historically awful at keeping your connections warm, the end of the year is the perfect time to reach out to folks. I usually make December the month I let folks know I thought of them and see how they’re doing. No requests, just a howdy and quick life updates. Maybe

Home ownership is so funny because a sound I wouldn’t have batted an eye at as a renter, now has me slowly walking around my home like a madwoman 😂

Well connected people, how are you dealing with the onslaught of requests to connect people with potential job opportunities? I’ve always found it to be a bit much, but the market being what it is has kicked things up 10 notches.

I’m at the stage in life where I’m the first person BOTH of my parents want to call when they need to vent 😂

ICE raided this Chicago apartment building. But instead of backing down, these tenants are organizing.

I hate this for many reasons, but the fact that this return to office policy is worse than the original office lifestyle is the worst. I understand they may be being harsh to combat people being used to working from home, but I hate feeling watching and tracked.
This is insane

Am I finally going to be able to afford the house I want?!

I do think it says a lot about America that the guy who killed Medgar Evers just lived a free and comfortable life for 30 years after
When I did a 1990 interview with Byron De La Beckwith, who killed Mississippi NAACP leader Medgar Evers in 1963, most Americans bristled at Beckwith’s beliefs. Now, 35 years later, the assassin is dead, but some of the views he promulgated are reemerging in new forms.

What surprised you about your Wrapped this year? For me, I didn’t think my listening age would be THAT old 🤣 and I truly believed Don Toliver would be higher on my list of favorite artists. Dang sure didn’t think I’d be in the top .5% or Lil Baby fans 🙌🏾

Every once in a while I'll hit a chaotic stretch of time at work and I'll get away from the technical bits I love to stay close to. Then when I return, I'm always nervous "I won't have it anymore". But to my great surprise, even if the beginning action of shaking the cobwebs off

If you’re like me and haven’t gotten your REAL ID yet, it’s time to do it 🫠
