Black man invented the game cartridge & another one made downloading games possible . Wow
In 1994, Sega president Stan Thomas launched “Sega Channel” allowing users to download 20 Sega Genesis games every month through the cable company's "On Demand" being the first platform to offer a streaming service similar to Xbox’s Game Pass 🎮📺#BlackHistoryMonth

Context collapse 101. A common black phrase about haters/the powers that be —is misinterpreted as “they” being the Jews

The mood turns somber on *The Joe Budden Podcast* when Marc Lamont Hill, formerly of Al Jazeera, discloses that all his former colleagues who covered the Gaza war have died. Condolences to the lives lost and we pray for peace 😔

Hollywood said older women couldn’t lead a rom com & she made one of the best
Can’t emphasize enough how often the women 70+ in my life bring up Diane Keaton, and specifically Something’s Gotta Give. That movie, and her very being and body work work were a reminder to them that women of a certain age can still be alive, vibrant, sexy, valued.

They are being studied ..some of the best work on misogynoir and pop culture is on Meg
The layers of misogynoir against Megan Thee Stallion need to be studied. I’ve always anticipated it from black men because misogynoir is something many of us bond over and live by. But seeing so many black women taking pleasure in her pain & tearing her down is even more jarring.

Johnny cash said her music saved his life & was the muse of his work. Jeff beck says British Invasion didn’t happen if they didn’t see her . Truly the guitar goddess ..ahead of her time .
Chuck Berry said his entire career was one long Sister Rosetta Tharpe impersonation.” Nicknamed ‘The Godmother of Rock,’ her riffs and licks would become staples in Rock ‘n’ Roll.
