Traditions gain salience through time and consistency. They are what we choose to do across the years. When they are interrupted, when we stop choosing them consistently, they lose that.
The chancellor said it’s not going away entirely—that remains to be seen—but it’s already lost some of its heft.

Teyana may be fine but she is definitely male centered. When she used Rihanna’s battered face as a “clapback” I knew what kinda woman she was. She is not a good person 🙂↔️

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was born 97 years ago today on January 15, 1929. It's sad he didn't live to be 40. Every year I'm astounded that there's color pictures of him that aren't shared more widely.

I put my right sock on my right foot, then left sock on my left foot, then right shoe, left shoe. Folk think socks are ambidextrous, but they lean left or right.

“Can I check a pulse?” yelled the bystander, standing across Portland Avenue from Renee Good’s lifeless body inside her crashed SUV, video footage of the exchange shows.
“No,” an agent replies. “Back up.”
“I’m a physician!”
“I don’t care.”
“No,” an agent replies. “Back up.”
“I’m a physician!”
“I don’t care.”
‘I’m a physician,’ he said. ‘Don’t care’ was the reply.
Bystander medical assistance was declined during the restraint-related death of George Floyd, and now after the shooting of Renee Good.
