The strippers at Magic City wearing the “I voted” sticker as pasties is so damn funny. I love Atlanta so bad.

Seeing how much I’m slimming down in pictures is all the motivation I need to keep my ass in the gym. The results are result-ing

In all of this, let’s not forget the Democrats who ran before. Especially Stacey Abrams in Georgia and Beto O’Rourke in Texas. They laid the groundwork, and when they lost, they stayed and helped build the infrastructure for the next person. You have to invest in these states, even when you lose. And thank God for that investment.
Stacey Abrams ran so Keisha Lance Bottoms could soar.

'In 1860, an enslaved man named Sheppard Peek was listed among the possessions of William Peek. His value was placed at $1400. More than a century and a half later, Sheppard’s great-great-granddaughter, Keisha Lance Bottoms, was elected governor of GA' ajc.com/politics/2026/11/kei…

Whew. I’m filled with so much gratitude this morning and I’m not gonna cry because I did my makeup really pretty, but God is so faithful. I’m really walking into a beautiful birthday week, kicking off AfroTech with the college babies today 🥳

Marty has run the New York City Marathon every year since 1980 and finished his 43rd tonight as the last man across the line. He said it would be his final one his mind is still willing, but his body isn’t. A remarkable way to end the streak. Congratulations on 43 NYC Marathons, Marty. ❤️
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The runner’s name is James Thomas, not Marty. The person who filmed and spoke with him (@MickmickNYC) confirmed this. He is not the 90-year-old Marty Granoff (who ran his 6th NYC Marathon in 2026, last previously in 1983). Source: x.com/MickmickNYC/st…
