    Thank you. I knew these facts were true. Writing is my wife. A brand which best describes aspects of my life. I walk with notes on my phone. Develop quotes that keep me in the zone.

    For 40 years, Democrats and Republicans have played in Reagan's stadium, passing the ball from the left of the field to the right. Trump's promise is that he's garishly discredited every tenet of Reagan's moral stadium, giving the next president a chance to build a new one.

    Chris Evans went to his 20 year high school reunion and I’m not sure if my favorite accessory is the cardigan, the beard or the name tag. This is why he’s the Best Chris. We are all the lady on the right.

    The next season of Empire will be its last. It’s the end of an era—Empire began as a national phenomenon that got massive numbers and showed the TV industry that a Blackcentric show could be gigantic. (No word yet on Jussie’s place in the last season.)

    Happy Birthday to one of the greatest musicians of the 20th century, Stevie Wonder. This may be the best string of albums by one artist ever—Music of My Mind (1972), Talking Book (1972), Innervisions (1973), Fulfillingness' First Finale (1974) & Songs in the Key of Life (1976).

    The US cash bail system at work: 76% of the jail population has yet to be convicted of a crime. Most of those 462 000 people are languishing in jail solely because they can't afford bail.

    So sad to see Peggy Lipton go. I met her once in the CNN green room and she was an amazing woman.

    Trump lies even though we know the truth. We know Trump badly wanted to fire Mueller, we know he almost did fire him, and we know he did not fully cooperate with the investigation. And yet, we still get this vomit of lies:

    Yes Capt Marvel said I have other planets to save but I’m sorry that’s wack.Why is the savior they need off screen for 3/4ths of the movie? If you’re writing Endgame, you’ve got to make much better use of Capt Marvel.

    Endgame (spoilers): The gang thinking that the time space continuum works the exact same way it does in the movies was cute but it was far too cute and it was way beneath the level of intelligence these characters are supposed to have.

    👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Infinity was far more compelling than Endgame and if I wrote the movie “Looper” I would have all kinds of side eyes with the script. They damn near plagerized it.....

    There’s 3 Inifinity War fight scenes I’ve watched over and over (when the Maw first comes to Earth, when Iron Man attacks the Maw on the ship & the final epic battle vs Thanos). There’s only one Endgame fight scene I will re-watch and it wasn’t as good as the Infinity War scenes.

    No Lavel. Endgame ain’t Black Panther. It’s not something I’ve gotta worship to get into the BBQ. Take your potato salad w raisins and go home. RT : Your BBQ invitation is revoked! Please remove yourself from the premises. LOL.
