Effects of Executive Actions on Nonprofits

I think he would praise the plot for tackling those big questions and showing how groups are affected and reacting through the individual characters.

Agree. World building, character development, high stakes & surprises. A little humor thrown in.

Opinion | Bluesky Is Different From X. For Now. (Gift Article) Users are looking for a more curated experience on a platform that is not constantly trying to get them to interact with brands.

Young, Fat, and Gifted Two new streaming comedies show viewers are eager for stories about fat Black women that don’t just rewrite old, damaging scripts about our lives.

“In the cultural imagination Michelle Buteau and Natasha Rothwell are embodying, fat women can simply exist.”

The # of times this Amtrak crew has reminded people to put on their shoes when walking around and to flush the toilet is a little gross. Good on the crew wanting to see different behavior, naming it and giving instructions. On the other hand, we are all sharing this space, let's be courteous?

DWYER CULTURAL CENTER

We were truly having a party at a screening of the Luther doc at Dwyer Cultural Center in Harlem last night. It is a loving tribute, full of songs that have been part of my whole life. Highly recommend the film, especially in a group setting.
