Happy 2024, to those of you who were far too busy to kick it in the NYE live! As most (all?) of y'all should know, our first book club book for 2024 is the Hundred Years' War on Palestine: A History of Settler Colonialism and Resistance, 1917-2017 by Rashid Khalidi. We'll be Zooming on the 27th for our discussion.
Anyway, I picked up my copy yesterday from my favorite book store, Reparations Club, which is Black-owned and woman-owned. Here's the dope part: At checkout, Jazzi (the owner) offered our book club a code which will be applicable for any book club books we choose, from here on out!
Here's the link to Hundred Years War on Palestine at Rep Club 👉🏾 https://rep.club/products/hundred-years-war-palestine?variant=44231992017131
The code is ti10 and it will get you 10% off on our current book, the Hundred Years' War on Palestine, and as we vote on future books throughout the year, the code will remain valid on any books we choose for our book club that Rep Club has stocked. Considering that this is a small business (and books don't offer high profit margins), I'm thankful for Rep Club's generosity in hooking us up. 🤓
Rep Club does ship for reasonable prices, too -- so, this isn't only for the handful of youse in Los Angeles. And fyi, this Rep Club discount is NOT associated with any sort of referral/commission, meaning that I do not earn monies from y'alls use of it.
But, if you do want to throw ya girl some commission coins, there's still my Bookshop, for anything Rep Club might not have in stock. 🖤
Here's the book on Bookshop 👉🏾 https://bookshop.org/a/21601/9781250787651

Whew, chillay! This daily steps challenge has been transformative, and I'm really grateful for the experience. Please don't forget to 👍🏾 this post, and let me know below if y'all would want semi-regular ongoing check-ins (bi-weekly? weekly?), to keep up our steps together. 👇🏾💬

It's day 5 of my "10K steps by 10AM for 10 days" #fitness #challenge, which means that if you started your version of this with me on March 1st, we're officially halfway through our quest to 👏🏾 GET 👏🏾 THESE 👏🏾 STEPS!
I've done a lot of fitness challenges over the years, and this is easily one of my favorites (perhaps thee number one favorite!), ever. It's just so simple. There aren't a bunch of rules or opportunities to fall short day-to-day, which is making it very effective for me to commit to and succeed in using this as a launchpad for an overall lifestyle/routine change.
How youse doin'? 👇🏾💬
Hey Locals communiTi! Supporters already know about this, but after about 2 years of trying to make "fetch" happen on here, I'm hanging it up. No new content (free or premium) will be posted on this Locals page, beginning February 1, 2025.
I have many reasons for shutting this page down, not least of all needing to be more focused in my energies and efforts with content creation and community-building. Running both this platform and Patreon requires a great deal of duplicate work.
Uploading and processing for just 1 video takes hours, even on the days where there aren't technical difficulties with the platform and/or my ISP. So, imagine having to do that twice for every post. Then, add in the issues with Locals interface itself with regard to formatting limitations on posts, the fact that I NEVER receive the notifications I am supposed to receive, plus general glitches and frustrations with the platform, it is high time I cut Locals loose.
I appreciate you all for following me on ...
Waaaow, this is the last/one of the last posts I'll be making here on Locals. 🥲

Anyway, family ONLY LIVE today at 5:00p PST to keep my #TwitchTuesday momentum going. It has been a longass week since the last live, chi... 😮💨 Hit the ❤️/👍🏾 if I'll see you in the live chat!
We can also talk some about this Drumpf DEI stuff and the possible boycotts, but I'ma tread lightly on those as much as I can, since I'm working on a YouTube video about this exact topic, and I don't wanna bore y'all with hearing my rant two times over.

First livestream, since the fires fucked my whole shit up! Let's kiki LIVE, 4p PST. This will simulcast to YouTube (unlisted/family only link), as well as to Twitch, since I know some folks prefer Twitch + I'm getting back into my #TwitchTuesday groove.
Let's talk about how y'all spent your MLK, and some other old tea that I wanted to get to before/while I was temporarily displaced last week.
