The way they both looked at the camera 🤣🤣 — Tyler James Williams and Orlando Jones have one of the most natural father and son dynamics on television right now, and the fact that they are not actually related makes it even more impressive. Orlando Jones, best known for MadTV and Drumline, plays Martin Eddie, a no nonsense retired military man who spent years questioning whether Gregory’s teaching career was a real job. Watching Gregory navigate his father’s approval while still standing firm in his own identity is some of the most honest Black father and son storytelling we have seen on a sitcom in years. Abbott Elementary really said we see you. 🖤 #AbbottElementary #quinta #blacksitcoms #blacktvshows by @throwblacktv

The cost of living is already doing the most, and now this?! 😭💸

A new report from the Center for Economic and Policy Research found that median Black household net worth dropped 25% between 2022 and 2025, falling from $49,100 to $36,800.

That’s a major decline in household wealth, which includes savings, home equity and other assets after subtracting debt.

With the midterm elections approaching, issues like housing affordability, wages and economic opportunity deserve attention. Check where the candidates on your ballot stand on the policies affecting your wallet.

Issa was just trying to do a good deed and George had her questioning every decision she ever made 😭😂

This is why Insecure will always be THAT show! Issa Rae gave us five seasons of hilarious, relatable moments while putting everyday Black experiences front and center.

The HBO series went on to win a Peabody Award and earn 14 Emmy nominations, proving just how much of an impact it made on television.

What’s the funniest Insecure scene you’ll never forget? 👀

Taking six figures from oil and gas companies who jack up prices, and then having your wife send out $10 gas cards to working Black families in Detroit is wild behavior.

Mike Rogers’ career is bankrolled by the very oil and gas lobbies driving up costs for everyday Michiganders. While he votes to keep gas prices high and protect corporate profits, he thinks a $10 publicity stunt will make voters forget who created the problem in the first place.

Politicians backed by corporate lobbies won’t lower our cost of living—showing up at the polls is how we demand real accountability. The deadline to register online or by mail is October 19th! Check your voter status right now at Vote.org or the Michigan Voter Information Center.

Kelli really had to remind Issa what her bank account was looking like 😭💀

This scene from HBO’s Insecure hits even harder with today’s cost of living. Between rising rent, groceries and utilities, living alone has become a serious financial commitment for many Americans.
Housing affordability continues to be a major concern across the country. How much does someone realistically need to make to afford their own place these days? 👀

Can we talk about the year Miles Caton has had?! 👏🏾🔥

The 21-year-old actor and singer made his film debut playing Sammie in Ryan Coogler’s Sinners, starring alongside Michael B. Jordan.

Before Hollywood, Miles went viral as a kid singing Nina Simone’s “Feeling Good” and later toured with H.E.R. as a background vocalist.

Now he’s a Critics Choice Award winner for Best Young Actor, a 2026 BAFTA Rising Star nominee and one of the breakout talents to watch.

From viral singing videos to award-winning performances, his journey is really something special. 🥹

Two presidents. Two protesters. Two very different moments caught on camera. 👀

At an October 12, 2026 rally in Youngstown, Ohio, Donald Trump mocked a protester’s weight after attendees physically confronted the demonstrator, who was wearing a “Release the Epstein Files” shirt.

Nearly 10 years earlier, Barack Obama stopped a crowd from booing an elderly Trump supporter at a 2016 rally in North Carolina, reminding the audience that Americans have a right to free speech.

Both incidents raise questions about how political leaders respond to dissent, even when the person protesting disagrees with them.

What do you think about the way each situation was handled?

Maya Rudolph as Dionne Warwick on Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt will NEVER not be funny 😭😭

The way she went from questioning a global warming conspiracy theory to singing “TO WHAT END?!” like she was
performing at the Grammys 💀

This 2017 cameo is from Season 3, Episode 8, “Kimmy Does a Puzzle!” and Maya’s Dionne Warwick impression might be one of the most underrated moments in the entire series.

Who else randomly quotes this scene? 😂
