To the women of #Wakanda: Y’all did that. #BlackPanther
I am perplexed by the petty; totally perplexed.
Went to see #blackpanther @IMAX last night and what a totally immersive experience it was! There’s nothing like seeing a movie on the big screen.
How is it possible that the new season of #TheCrown launches today and I have to go to work? If it's as messy as Judi Dench says it is, I am ALL. IN.
I believe in growth, and that it can happen at any age. This has been a season of self-discovery, and I haven’t always liked what I’ve learned. Hoping the years ahead will be the harvest.
It’s November 1st, and I have to deal with it. That’s it; that’s the tweet.
This. Is. Everything.
Elon Musk’s first weekend as Twitter’s owner was a disaster. Sources inside the company say we should expect things to get worse, @dlberes and @cwarzel write: on.theatln.tc/0G1tT9G
Tired. Tired of mass shootings.Tired of lip service. Tired of this lack of compassion and empathy. Tired of having to explain why none of this sh*t is okay. Tired of shrugging my shoulders. Tired of feeling hopeless. Tired.
My Halloween costume this year is nonexistent. Any suggestions?
I am a humble soul. But sometimes you just gotta let folks know, I am STILL that bad B. Channeling that @AbbottElemABC energy from the Halloween episode. 🎃
Lotta times people reach out to me for something and it may take a minute for me to respond because—life/challenges/obligations. But then they reach out to a male on my team thinking they will get better results because… patriarchy. Please stop doing that.
Holiday movies are on and I can’t believe how excited I am. 🎄
😷Had a Covid scare today but tested negative. Haven’t been as vigilant about masking up, but that’s over now. I hate being sick.

@Vanessa_KDeLuca Same. The whole house is asleep. I just made tea and about to settle in for some work (that will be incoherent) and a few episodes of Reasonable Doubt. Cheers.
So no one is going to bring up the fact that pervert Matt Gaetz won re-election whilst under criminal FBI investigation for child sex trafficking? Media is just going to let that slide by, huh?
The maturity and poise Ryan showed to beat back all you RecastT'challa muthafuckas is astounding. He melded poetic grief with real grief...and in an astounding way made Wakanda emotionally real for the audience in ways thought impossible in me-now fanboy social media era.
Just a reminder that - per usual - Black women were the defenders of democracy this election cycle. Pay some respect.
@SabbySabs2 @ogbonna_collin You dipshits know Biden isn’t the one who struck down his own student debt relief plan, right? It was a Trump-appointed judge.

I have been invited on Marie Claire Magazine’s Power Trip. An invite only private charted plane with the top business and influencer women. All they tell you is pack your bag and be at the airport. I don’t even know who else will be on the plane. Super excited #PowerTrip2022
Hundreds of people with our book on multiple theaters on the opening night of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. #WakandaForever
Angela Bassett, Ryan Coogler and Letitia Wright opened up to @adambvary and I about the journey they took to bring #BlackPantherWakandaForever to the big screen, a stunning and heart-wrenching tale that’s (once again) much more than a superhero movie. variety.com/2022/film/news…
I live in Washington DC but I am a native Pennsylvanian. No way, Dr Oz was going to win. He wasn’t born there and doesn’t understand our blue collar roots. Candidate quality matters. #Midterms
To celebrate the better-than-expected Dem showing tonight, I’m popping open a giant bottle of Critical Race Theory.
'You made me the first woman ever elected to be the governor of the state of New York' — Democratic incumbent Kathy Hochul is the projected winner in NY’s race for governor. Hochul spoke about breaking barriers & glass ceilings in her victory speech. #Election2022
Well, @Bakari_Sellers mom might have the best insight to these times, “common sense ain’t that common right now…” election days used to feel so patriotic; now it’s hoping for honesty and people stay safe. 🤷🏻♀️ #ElectionDay #Midterms2022 #ElectionDaysanity #VotingMatters
