To see the creeps and weirdos actually celebrating this Puff verdict is ... wow.

Ladies, I hope you're paying attention. These brothers are snitching on themselves.

@aaronlmorrison, dang bro, we went from helping plan a NABJ regional conference to first-time dads. Life being lifing

The deer in my neighborhood are CONVINCED we planted something in the front of my house for them to eat 😒

Now that the @sixers currently have the worst record in the @nba, I would like to return to this tweet FROM JULY when I told you exactly what was going to happen, Philadelphia. In Paul George, you paid $212 million for a really tall podcaster. Again, I feel so bad for yall. I do.

[Khristopher J. Brooks @AmericanGlow]

Dear @sixers fans, I honestly feel so so so sorry for you guys. @Yg_Trece is not going to show up in the playoffs for you. He didn’t for @okcthunder; he didn’t for my beloved @LAClippers and you all are going to be so frustrated with how much you paid him to be non-impactful 😥😰

[Khristopher J. Brooks @AmericanGlow]

Dear @CoachCParker,
My alma mater @CMUniversity will soon have an opening for head coach of @CMU_Football. This is an open letter as a fellow Detroit native begging you to apply. I have no clue whether you’d get the job but you ARE qualified. Sincerely, a college football fan.

[Khristopher J. Brooks @AmericanGlow]

This is the stage of life I’m in right now. Putting up fucking baby gates 🙄😒😩

[Khristopher J. Brooks @AmericanGlow]

Who here is surprised that Bronny James got sent to the G League?

[Khristopher J. Brooks @AmericanGlow]

@etbowser I think the more pressing question here gentlemen is: does Darkseid have the anti-life equation in this hypothetical fight

[Khristopher J. Brooks @AmericanGlow]

My dad said that’s the way “those people”are. Yes, they can literally come in your house, put their feet up on your couch, hold your son in their arms and everything - and still turn around and sabotage your life. They been savages since day one. I guess he was right all along.

Sometimes people pretend you’re a bad person so they don’t feel guilty about the things they did to you

[Queen Zenobia @ZeeNTheCity]

I don’t think people understand how much a $100k salary is after taxes.

[Khristopher J. Brooks @AmericanGlow]

For those of us old enough to remember: There’s a line in G. Dep’s song “Let’s Get It” where Diddy says “I run this city. Tell the cops, the DA and the Feds to come get me.” Upon retrospect, well, let me shut my mouth.

[Khristopher J. Brooks @AmericanGlow]

I'm OK with being in the minority of people who believe Robert Downey Jr as Dr. Doom was a TERRIBLE casting decision. Good for him. Great actor. Love his comeback story. But him as Doom CHEAPENS his death as Tony Stark. Sorry, not sorry.

[Khristopher J. Brooks @AmericanGlow]

@memangrum, no ma’am, j-schools are not. They’re teaching the audience development and chasing the Google algorithm and being an influencer. Today’s journalism students can’t write and when you tell them that, they just drop the major instead of digging in and learning the craft.

[Meghan Mangrum @memangrum]

J-Schools, are you not teaching students how to write or rewrite press releases? Quick breaking dailies?

Veteran journalists, where did you learn how to do this?

Why does everyone think they can be an investigative reporter but can't cover daily local news?!
