I stole his joke about “the quantum physics of being slapped into next week”. I started reading The Root regularly because I loved his columns. I think he went to The Grio after he left The Root, but I’m in Canada and The Grio blocks foreign IPs so I couldn’t follow him there. It’ll be nice to read his stuff again.
