Fear has a way of being contagious. But courage is also contagious.

We NEED to stop glamourising overworking. Please. The absence of sleep, good diet, exercise, relaxation, and time with friends and family isn't something to be applauded. Too many people wear their burnout as a badge of honour. And it needs to change.

Hi friends, moving over to Blue Sky. Follow me there 💙

I need people to remember that a black man won the popular vote twice and a woman won the popular vote once but lost bc (among other things) of electoral college/bad strategy. Do not let people say this country won’t vote for a woman. The majority of voters literally did lol.

A new @Chase bank campaign has put Jollof rice in the global spotlight again. The ad, “A Taste of West Africa,” features @michaelb4jordan, popular Nigerian chef, Chef Eros and former NBA player Pops Mensah-Bonsu. Now, we know the debate is going to begin but Ghana jollof every day. #JOLLOF #Ghana #Nigeria

Feels like a great time to reshare @dawnstaley’s message to congress! Uplift Black women! Written, creative produced and directed by moi for Goldman Sachs 1MillionBlackWomen

Lily Gladstone not winning does not take away from the fact that she gave one of the best performances of the year. Her performance and the film will live on long after tonight is over. Her wins have been historic and trailblazing. She already made history.

Yorgos Lanthimos has directed two Best Actress #Oscar winners • Olivia Colman (The Favourite, 2018) • Emma Stone (Poor Things, 2023)

It is an ideal marriage! 🤣

THIS is how you win an award

I was once at a meeting of some of the most powerful actresses in Hollywood. Data was presented of the 10 most BANKABLE actresses working. #ReginaHall was #2. Interesting that the most bankable list wasn't (surprise 🤨) exactly the same as the highest paid actress data that was presented. She is/was/ and forever will be THAT GIRL!! Run her ALL of her things!! #ProudFriendTweet ❤️

Startups with female founders get less funding but generate more revenue. More evidence that investing in women isn't just the right thing to do—it's the smart thing to do. bcg.com/publications/2…

It is I, Grover, your cute and adorable friend wishing you a great start to your Monday!

While were talking about Tracy Chapman, let’s remember this fantastic performance as one of the final musical guests on Letterman.

No. They just have no choice because they have no support. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@ashleymayer I also think they did Mira a little dirty. Feels like she was forced to bear a lot.

I'm thrilled for OpenAI employees that Sam is back, but it feels very 2023 that our happy ending is three white men on a board charged with ensuring AI benefits all of humanity. Hoping there's more to come soon.

The most important people to have in your life are the ones who speak up for you, defend you, advocate for you and recommend you when you’re not there.

BLUE IS FOR GIRLS. Proud to stand with @deepoku @thewiesuite to #ReclaimBlue. Why is blue the most frequent corporate color? Because it's associated with leadership, knowledge, professionalism....and boys. For women who don't do business as usual, join thewiesuite.com
