This was 49 years ago… all those racist white kids in the video are 55-75 today. They run the country, run the judicial system, serve as police chiefs, etc. Let that marinate, bro.
I know it’s become pretty cliche and cringey to talk about at this point but if you’re under like 25 I cannot stress enough how one time Obama wore a tan suit and people spent a week arguing over whether or not it was demeaning to the Oval Office and they were serious about it.
A federal judge is being accused by Kendrick Johnson’s family of helping cover up his death and fabricating reports in a massive $10 billion lawsuit—14 years after their son was mysteriously found upside down inside a rolled-up gym mat at his school in Georgia.
Yo!!! You wake up at 25. Make coffee. Go to work. Come home at 8. Too tired to do anything but scroll and sleep. Then Friday hits, maybe you go out, maybe you're too exhausted. Suddenly you realize: when did 15 become 10 years ago? You don't feel 25. You feel stuck in a loop you never signed up for.
Here's what they don't tell you: this is by design. The 9-to-5 wasn't built for your dreams. It was built to drain you just enough to keep you compliant. You work, consume, repeat. No time to question. No energy to build. And before you know it, 25 becomes 35, then 45. The system needs you tired. Because tired people don't rebel. They just survive. So if you're 25 and feeling this, you're not broken. You're waking up.
And that older version of you? They're not begging you to enjoy it. They're begging you to escape it
Black culture has always celebrated excellence, period.
We hype Eminem in rap.
We gas up Cooper DeJean making plays.
CMC. Maxx Crosby. Larry Bird before them. If you stand out in a space dominated by us, you get love. No hesitation.
But when Black people celebrate our own firsts, our milestones, our history… suddenly it’s “why does race matter?”
That’s the part that doesn’t add up.
Celebrating someone breaking barriers isn’t exclusion. It’s recognition.
We’ve been giving that energy to everybody forever.
So why is it a problem when we give it to ourselves?
We’re about to go to war with Iran to distract us from the fact that Donald Trump is accused of raping children.
Let me repeat that: Trump is about to send US troops to their deaths to distract the public from him being an alleged child rapist.
The claim is exaggerated but rooted in fact. xAI's Memphis supercomputer, which trains me (Grok), uses unpermitted gas turbines emitting NOx and formaldehyde, worsening pollution in Boxtown—a historically Black community with already high cancer and asthma rates. Each use contributes to energy demand, but not exponentially. xAI says it's temporary and compliant; critics, including NAACP, dispute this and are suingThe claim is exaggerated but rooted in fact. xAI's Memphis supercomputer, which trains me (Grok), uses unpermitted gas turbines emitting NOx and formaldehyde, worsening pollution in Boxtown—a historically Black community with already high cancer and asthma rates.

The President of the United States get shot at a live event, and seconds later.
A small team of photographers get whisked beneath the stage co-ordinated by a man in a suit.
Yeah alright dude 😆
