Well worth a listen. Such a well-realized world, it almost comes across more as reporting on fact than sharing fiction.

Texas, we haven't messed with you. We have honored our end of the bargain. You have forsaken the covenant...

Great week for Black reaction memes.

Regina Hall and Teyana Taylor looking confused and disappointed.

Ta-Nehisi Coates looking confused and disappointed.

Rep. Janelle Bynum looks at the camera with an air of “I said what I said.”

Napheesa Collier looks toward the press pool with a look of “y’all made me have to air this whole place out.”

Why is there always that one funky tasting pistachio in the bag...?

Crack it open from the middle like a freeze pop. Already halved in case you want to throw it in a smoothie.

‘Nickname’ is not ‘nick’ + ‘name.’

It was originally ‘ekename.’

‘Eke’ was the Middle English word for “also” or “in addition.”

Since ‘ekename’ began with a vowel, people used ‘an’ before it.

Over time, 'an ekename' became 'a nickname.'
