stress-induced weight loss. hitting the gym to regulate = more weight loss. my ass has shrunk. why has thou foresaken me?

Many Black people who continue to defend mainstream Democrats have linked their own Blackness with Black politicians. Their Black pride is not intrinsic, but depends on the Black Excellence narrative. 99% of politicians are our class enemies. That includes ALL presidents (including the Black one).

because me too sis!

As a rule, there is a reason why Black Twitter did not migrate over to Bluesky en masse. The reasons are not just cultural. They are also political. We are the bedrock of any politics left of center in this nation, and there is so so so much quiet resentment about that.

emotional sobriety is my lifeline. recognizing sick people and staying away is too.

i do not EXPECT black people to necessarily fight for non black people because LARGELY they dehumanize us just like white people do. MOST of us are just/barely surviving ourselves. but i DO EXPECT you to be PRO liberation of all people even if you don't personally fight. you cannot be against it.

Good Evening, "BlueSky" was a 37 month sociological study conducted by Harvard University that had come to its end. Thank you for your time.

62 million men. And I bet this story is only scraping the surface. This is when I don't necessarily wink too much at the concept of misandry because how the fuck do you reform or change this behavior while also keeping people safe?

DTF St. Louis was such a fun watch. great storytelling & cinemaphotography.

Whiteness is just a perpetual state of “…and then they came for me” except they have no concept of who was before

Not offering a virtual option (when feasible) is not inclusive and can be a form of gatekeeping.

a peer said: "when you write time passing, ask: 'what would I see differently on day 1 vs day 10?' then write that difference. not the conclusion." did she basically say my shit is trash? [baby, workshopping go me sensitve af]

🙏🏿🤲🏿🕊 *growls in honor*

the way tyler loves madison 🥹

Not gonna hold you, I'm gonna let the babies have all the ridiculous slang they want. Leave me out of it. 😂

*cishet man

this shit is CRAZY.

the Caterpillar documentary on netflix. the mother being transphobic in the first 20 minutes. yikes on bikes.

love on the spectrum is really inspiring me to date differently. more direct. more open. more honest. more weird.

You may think panicking & being clenched in panic is doing something, but it's not. It has no ability to impact things. So keep your eye on the situation, do what you can to make things better where you can, & live your life.

the way Gucci adlib "chiquita" at the beginning of Lemonade is today's stim. followed by "brrrrr."

Anyway, what's y'all end of the world fits? I'm going with this

🎶 It coulda' been me It shoulda' been me It woulda' been me if it wasn't for the blood 🎶

The history they taught us in school was bullshit anyway. Grow up and start reading the text TODAY! lol

the scenes i loved 3 months ago, i don't love no more because i wrote even better scenes. and the ones of the past need more interiorization. this cycle of loving and hating everything is...[idk the word yet]

Honestly I just really want to get put through the mattress again before the world ends.

logan on love on the spectrum is really tickling me.

every single Black woman i know is the funniest person on the planet

HER REACTION IS SENDING ME

my novel is set in 2003. and the way "in da club" went triple platinum that summer. you really had to be there.

The worst type of interaction on this site is speaking specifically and only to Black people and then the white user jumpscare. No one was talking to you 😭

stevie wonder. the man you are. my god tuday.

“you shoulda sat there & ate your food.” “beyonce, beyonce, beyonce?”

rewatching i love new york & tiffany pollard will forever be that bitch.

Birthright citizenship is one of those topics I can't think too deeply about, because it really emphasizes the contradictions of being a descendant of both enslaved Africans and indigenous people in a settler colony built on dispossession, displacement, and chattel slavery

i am actually not humble about being a good writer. i observe people & my characters are better for it.

the majority of my boundaries will include being even more offline & being quiet. bringing back the reclusive author who’s work says it all & the occasional press tour because the way i refuse to be consumed by parasocial relationships—

got an essay due 4/15. have i started? no. and this is for an anthology with a publisher & ya girl is paralyzed. on the bright side this time next year both essays & a novel will be published. 0 to published (if i see this through)

wait...have ya'll ever tried to change the teacher's gradebook...or was i really just at Eastside High?

Economy so bad might as well follow your dreams & see what happens

You can decide at any moment to try and new thing and if you do not like it — quit. But do not spend your life wondering what coulda been. Find out!

being amongst a certain demographic reminds me humans are indeed animals because they surely smell like them. and i really hate body smells//

i cry at mulan every time. and the genderbending love story gets me every time.

on threads, the writing girlies, with varying degrees of talent, are fussing and fighting with readers? about what? idk. but this is exactly why i created boundaries around how i engage with the public. because the writers need to consult with PR specialists....

i am definitely the see-the-sunrise type of vacationer.

yall remember the “this is your brain on drugs” commercials? we need a version of that campaign for AI usage

my hear me out is definitely this funny looking white man from Peaky Blinders.

i follow mad marxist & [decolonial] communists over here, and i miss ya'll. threads is cute for the writing community, but baby the girls are aspiring capitalists and i suffer.

Re: my previous post “We say you don’t fight capitalism with no black capitalism; you fight capitalism with socialism.” This speech is very important reading and history. Learn you something from one of our greatest revolutionaries, who identified as a communist.
