Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater has announced the great Carmen de Lavallade has died at age 94. A dancer extraordinaire, of course, and could act too. Here she is with Harry Belafonte in the often overlooked 1959 noir, Odds Against Tomorrow. It's a small role, and she totally steals the scene.

(Because they are losers)

The two things amongst a lot of “American“ staples are cars and guns. Both industries manufactured their need here. Gun manufacturers needed to sell surplus because demand didn’t align with supply after the “Civil” war. They sold guns under the guise of “Americana“. Making a “want” a “need”.

My daughter snuck in my room to sleep and plugged up her galaxy projector to shine on the ceiling. I woke up to all that red light and got terrified. I thought burnt sandals finally got me.

2026 is about calling in the old gods and destroying the patriarchy

This is kink

Got really close to my dealers family this year so I’m going with his wife to her sisters house so we can all get SHITFACED.

Reposting to hopefully get more eyes on this. Please spread the word, so artists can check if their shop got lifted & listed. I’ve seen comments elsewhere say that this is a Shopify issue, and there’s supposedly a way to opt out via email. Not sure if it works, but worth trying.

Granted I have only recently began to afford hotels by myself but still.

Like idk I get the email and any miscellaneous charge the put on after the booking fee is just gonna get disputed anyways sooooooo

Well color me juvenile because uh…..

I feel like a lotttttttt of people are gonna be deleting their instagrams in the coming year. Everybody over it.

I need to take this lil boy to the groomer but I don’t feel like getting out of bed so that’s just gonna have to wait.

If you leave a Waymo’s door partially open the company has to pay a human $20 to come close it, please use this information responsibly.

But innovative!

A lot of talk of bootyholes but I’m not seeing bootyholes! This is why the country is in collapse now!

I think I want a forever anklet.

The ADHD rates are too high for these shows to be going this long between seasons

Might buy the fake arches and just be done with it.

Every now and again I have to make sure I can still do palms to the floor and a split just to make sure I still got it.

The real hoes can frolic, the ones in training still need to sit in the house #RealFuckersOnly

Also, how do yall deal with turbulence while drunk?! Baby I would be spewing chunks all up and down the aisle.

Airports, flying and turbulence all make me nervous so I be in that bitch zooted from toe to tip, you hear me?! I get there early AF because if it wasn’t for those updates coming directly to my phone, I would be too high to damn read. I barely know I’m alive by the time I get off the AirTran.

!!!!!!!! And they know it, that’s why they fight so hard against a high speed train

It’s always the people in the Battered Livers club squawking about somebody else being addicted.

Reminder that weed smokers don’t gaf if you don’t like weed or not.

I'm absolutely not about to raw dog this bullshit

No need to rawdogg life. Pick a vice. Aim for one that won’t ruin your life

Niggas need coffee to function even on a day they don’t go to work and want to wax poetic on people being addicted baby fucking YAWN. FIND SOME NEW MATERIAL.

Baby this is America, everybody addicted to something here.

As do the people getting slizzard at the airport bar to accomplish the same purpose.

100% we have been absorbed into the machine, which is why many people end up having such extractive relationships with cities when traveling abroad btw, watch this video

Im gonna learn how to tuck because I am wearing bodysuits and unitards this summer, dammit.

I need my royalties!

We are unfortunately part of the imperial machine and we cannot extract ourselves from that reality.

Americans must learn to decenter themselves. We cannot export instability and expect to find it elsewhere for our comfort.

Mmm. www.standardmedia.co.ke/entertainmen...

kill the cop in your head too. ☝🏾

Because they know the cost!

The bad bitch tax is real and MANDATORY. You MUST pay it.

This is what pisses me off the most actually. Co-opting Malcolm X to cry that ugly husband cheated on her, and using putting on like she has anything in common with the Black Panthers other than the color of her skin.

She cultivates it. It's why I joked that if she made "What About Us" the song would be "What About Me"

I AMMMM. THE OPENING ACT. THE HEADLINERRRRRRRRR AND AFTERPARRRRRTAY

The Patriots are the team of fine ass vagrants.

Women are taught to: “help build a man up” “stop being masculine so he can be a man”“LET the man be a man” “Be feminine so he can be masculine” Essentially do everything so he can be one thing. No one needs to reduce themselves for me to express my womanhood. Get it together!

i for one will not forget when folks found out the post office was a way for more than few negroes to touch middle class and then all of a sudden (2006) it needs to fund it's own retirement plan. that rule applies to no other federal agency. 20 YEARS LATER...yeah aight.

This is apt because they definitely spend a lot of money to make sure we like them instead of doing things we'd like

Also, it is big enough to literally wear as a dress so I might have to try that too.

I found one of those Lenny Kravitz scarves that big enough to wear as a dress yesterday on a random stoop so I washed it and wore today and baby when I tell you I am WARM.
