Visited my parents today and saw my mom had put out these 🥹Then I caught up on the news and saw that former President Obama gave a public interview.
Feeling heartened.
I liken the former President to Ta Nehisi Coates. Both say what people aren’t ready to come to terms with yet.
Didn’t watch the final 3 minutes of Breaking the Bird because it brought us to the present where we are.
That episode was rough. Favorite aspect: the lawyer brought in to steer in 2019-2021 is a black woman.
Not much else to say re the rest.
Knew the Breaking the Bird was going to be a hard watch for me and thats why it took me 2 weeks to view it.
So far there’s no discussion re: China and Russias bots, which anyone working closely on either side of campaign knew circa July 2016.
Had to write another great quote though, from another of my least fav people in the series - haven’t even learned his name because he reads very 🙄. He said
“By that point I’m at the White House as a Chief Digital Officer so…” chill, b. You’re over 25. It reads cringe that you’re enamored by titles and power.
“By learning how to make himself the central villain of every day.” @rabble

Brilliant statement re: Donald Trump circa 2016. Catching up on the last ep of Breaking the Bird as I travel home. Yay x2.

You can’t get rid of Monday right now on ChatGPT Pro even.
Im often an OpenAI stan because it’s a lot of former 44 and MVP staffers, but I don’t like this 👀:

A former colleague from campaign life just landed a senior role at OpenAi and I couldn’t be happier for the salary they’re about to earn 💯Those events are about to be 🤌🏾
“Handle your business and come home.” is a phrase my dad has said to me ever since I started traveling work.
Prayers up for traveling grace!  Talk soon nostr 🧘🏽♀️✨
“Where you been?
I missed you.”
🥹🥹 (of course I can’t watch this without thinking about how the Administrations cuts to postal workers). #Sigh #GoToSleepAng
Just caught up on what’s been reshared yesterday/today. Is the person that interviewed jack on nostr? She did a beautiful job! 🩷🩷
Still not at a place where I can listen to the topic of Bitcoin for more than 5 minutes without being like “ok cool” but it’s always valuable to know what industry leaders say.
Holding out for a 2025 NVK/jack interview next 🤞🏾🤞🏾
