Just finished watching 'Homeys' on Tubi. Its a documentary about four homeless people living on the streets of L.A. , and might be the first time stories like these have been told, so I hope everyone checks it out -- as its a very enlightening glimpse into the lives of people living on the fringes

For the 2026 - 27 school year, the 'I ❤️ My HBCU' feature (which posts on Mondays), will be a ' Best of' ediiton, featuring the very best HBCU posts that we find online or film ourselves. They'll be from any era tho , and not necessarily from the current school year. So, just a heads up: Each Monday, from now thru June 14, 2027, we'll feature the very best 'I ❤️ My HBCU' posts, which may or may not be from the current school year, but will be very, very, very good !!!

The 30th Annual MLK Ski Weekend will be held January 14 - 18, 2027 at the Blue Mountain Ski Resort in Ontario, Canada. For more information, click here
note: The event organizers were nice enough to give us interviews back in the day, so we always try to promote this event.

In case you didn't notice, the site hit a snag today, and temporarily froze, so there was no Wayback Wednesday post. That said, because it was so late in the day when the issues were finally resolved, Thursdays Gaza post was added early... but there're still a few technical issues, so don't expect things to get back to normal until next week. We'll try to work round the issues until then. Just fyi

Yom Kippur starts tonight at sundown, and ends on Monday at sundown. That being said, the site may go offline at some point on Monday or Tuesday. If it does, it may be the following week before it comes back up. Fingers crossed that it won't freeze tho, but just fyi in case it does.

More site drama , glitches, and issues, so it may be mid - week before the Election Blog is updated. Check back

Having issues making audios again, so , unless something changes, updates to the Election Blog will be written. Nothing coincidental about these issues tho, instead, its a form of censorship for sure, and largely due to a concern regarding -- not what I've said, -- but what I MIGHT say. In fact, as soon as I announced I'd be talking about the upcoming elections, my most recent option for making audio went haywire, so you do the math ... but just a heads up for now. We'll see how things go.
And just a reminder that, all of the day one options for making audio were disabled in August, 2023, consequently, there haven't been any (or many) audios around here since 2025, with one or two posted during that time frame, and three or four posted during 2026. Just saying...
update: I will work on the Election Blog updates tonight and tomorrow, because, unfortunately, there are other things that will have to take precedence over the blog. I 'll get around to it as soon as I can tho, since early voting starts Tuesday. Ttyl 💕
