Five Worthy Minutes

Thank you to the communities of people that keep us sane, afloat, and hold us accountable. Happy Father's day to you all!!!

WE can be different. WE can do different. WE can do better.

I know I'm half a month late, and I apologize. Thank you for loving me and showing me what love can be.

I game, y'all know this about me. I suck at shooters, but I really like this one and it's fun to get on with a group of guys who are just having fun. I really needed that today, so I thank you all!!!

Ending the school year and the end of a professional space in life comes with a lot of different emotions. I've been in a bit of a depression over the past few days, and this is part of the reason why.

This should have went out on Monday, but I didn't push send.

I have a hard time just sitting with one book. I'm excited to getting back to reading, writing, and gaming for the summer! The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows is written by John Koenig

Really wanna say thank you to the following folks:Dr. Natasha JordanTan ArnoldMarissa BrownTravis Stallings

The idea that I feel guilty about being home taking care of my kids instead of being at work has me in a bit of a space.

You know, I thought I was going to be able to bounce back, but clearly that was not going to be the case.

DO THE THING!!!

I know I should have went to bed, but the gameplay, the story, and the graphics are amazing!!!

I'm excited about the new work from Shinichiro Watanabe: Lazarus!!!!

I'm happy that I am able to be present with those that I love!

I must've fallen asleep the other day while uploading this, because clearly it was still in the queue... Forgive me y'all, That pollen had me worn out!!!

Sometimes the best part of caring for yourself is being by yourself.

That's it. That's the message. I hate it here.

A library burns to the ground.

I hope Strom Thurman's spirit is weeping right now.

I'm sorry that I'm a day late, Happy Trans Day of Visibility!!!

At least, that's what I'm telling myself.

But is a dream killer...

So, What do you want to talk about?

We love to see Black Women Winning!!! Also Thank you to the good folks who made Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur and Craig of the Creek!!!

I don't know all of your names, and I can't remember all of your faces. I just want to say Thank You!

Manhood is an inside job and comparison is the thief of joy. I'm a little nasally on that one thanks to the pollen.

Some questions for my listeners:What lessons worked for you?What lessons still hold weight in this time?What lessons are different?How do you convey those lessons to a younger generation?

Going through some changes and just wanted to drop in to say Hello as we are making some moves. We'll be a little more consistent as transitions are on the horizon for all of us!

Kratos feels like a black father from a generation or two before me. The world and his journeys have hardened him, and he does not know how to display affection to his young son. Playing this game alongside reading "All About Love" by bell hooks is going to be an amazing experience. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/max-worthington/support

In perspective of playing the new game, I got to thinking of how lonely it must've been for Kratos in the original trilogy. Just killing and solving puzzles all while seeking revenge and at the employment of the Greek Gods. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/max-worthington/support

Dr. King's legacy was one of non-violence, this is true. It was also about direct action, which always seems to be missing in memes and posting that commemorate the day of his birth. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/max-worthington/support
