I regret brushing my teeth at 730p. I just knew I'd be asleep by now, but instead it's 945a and I am Hungry. But I'm not wasting this expensive ass sensodyne toothpaste, nor do I feel like rebrushing or reflossing.

Guessing who would be a guest performer was a light hearted convo in the group chat. Nothing more. Gambling got folks down real bad.

#SOTD is Mati (Studio Tanais) over a Black owned fragrance week purchase, Oud Therapy body oil from Blanc & Noire. New to this brand, the scent was deep and lasted past lunch. Worth breaking my 2026 body product no-buy rule 🙃 Paired nicely with the damp rose, soil and oud of Mati. #perfumesky

And ENOUGH with all the online exclusives. Nothing pisses me off more than when 99% of the interesting or cute items are online only. The clothing stores that carry or cater to plus sizes are the worst offenders.

If you are from IN or IL, or a bordering state, the density of “surely” dots should not surprise you. IN and Southern IL are, something…

BREAKING BLACK HISTORY TODAY, 2/10/26! Laila Edwards, the first Black woman to play for USA's National Hockey Team, first Black Woman to score a goal in the Olympics. (snatched from the other place)

#SOTD Dior Addict, the most recent formula (2014?). I waited 1.5yrs after first sampling in Sephora to buy. I was fixated on getting an older formula since so many folks rave about them. Finally bought it bc it lived rent free in my mind the entire time! The only bourbon vanilla for me #perfumesky

Luxury grocery stores?! Both items can be bought at Meijers and Krogers…sometimes at a discount or with coupons. Go late in the day, and it might be half off. I need WSJ to stfu.

I honestly can't blame a platform for being sick of having to scramble to implement age verification for the states and countries that pass these laws, often with little to no implementation period (SC just signed one with immediate effect!)

While this absolutely sucks, we are going to see a lot more places implementing universal global age verification over this next year, because the number of states and countries legally requiring it has gotten to the point no one can keep up anymore.

Gnarls Barkley was the soundtrack to my transition from undergrad to grad school. Was going thru some things tough, and then moved to the UK and immediately didn’t fit it. Wore them albums out and still find myself wanting to revisit them but Cee-Lo ruined it. Absolutely fuck him

In high school, my friend’s brother used to “borrow” clothes from stores. He gave me a blue and white Eddie Bauer button down once bc it wasn’t his style. I wore that shirt until it had holes, and then kept wearing it. Couldn’t tell me I wasn’t in my sporty era.

So my brain immediately clocked that it was Ricky Martin…and as soon as the show ended, instead of a Ricky song, my brain started playing Bailamos (Enrique) on repeat. Lord, this is gonna be in my dreams. High school all over again, could not get that song out my head.

White grandpa seeing two guys grind on each other on a F-100

I know a certain demographic is SEETHING at the sight of all those flags and cultural set pieces, Black and Brown people gleefully dancing in the face of fascism to music in another language at they “All-American” Super Bowl. All that colonizing and still barely an ounce of cool among all of “them”.

Ricky Martin look good!!!!

Am I really about to DoorDash chocolate cake?

All of us this evening.

Happy #JanetJacksonAppreciationDay to all those who celebrate

I ate so much yesterday morning that 24hrs later I’m still not actually hungry. 4 tacos, menudo, and guac and chips. In my 20s/30s I’d been hungry within hours. RIP to my metabolism.

For #SOTD I revisited an old sample, Journeys 4/Rima by Sarah Horowitz Parfums. I bought this as an add-on sample to the Evolution line discovery set, which I didn't care for. Glad I kept this bc it's a playful patchouli that I think will shine in warm weather. (notes in description) #perfumesky

This collection feels like it was created by and for a certain crowd…the crowd that is posting AI videos for BHM, using Black excellence type hashtags on every post, and won’t accept any Tyler Perry critiques. Yall know exactly the crowd I’m talking about…

Impatiently waiting for my Mexican market to open. I been craving their weekend-only Menudo all week. I know that and their tacos will heal me. I will be okay…until Monday at 8am.

First, this is my second sleeve of this “Nola” style espresso…and no chicory has arrived at my taste buds. Tastes like Nespresso’s regular medium espresso pods. Also, no matter the order of ingredients, my iced lattes are too foamy.

Had one of those “oh no, I am the adult” moments yesterday. At work, responding to some questions, and my inner voice was like “do you hear yourself, talking like the expert in the room, and they writing this shit down.” Went back to my desk and stared into the abyss bc how did we get here 😭

I’m going to bed 😂

Mychal Threets @mychal3ts.bsky.social Happy Black History Month

All these kufis and adorable pictures of us as children got me feeling celebratory. Think I'll sip some bourbon, and watch Black Dynamite and Outlaw Johnny Black.

My perfume tray for the first week of #BHM, which is also Black Owned Fragrance Week. If you follow BOFW on IG, you will see when brands post sale codes for this week (Zernell Gillie already has 20% off). Not pictured, a million jars and bottles of Black owned body creams 🥴 #blacksky #perfumesky

It’s Black History Month! MAKE SOME MFN NOISE! 🗣️

For the 1st day of #BlackHistoryMonth I'm making a big pot of spaghetti, which I will eat for an absurd amount of days...and when I'm sick of eating it and consider DoorDash, I will point at myself in the mirror and say, "you got DoorDash money?" in my mom's voice. Shout out to the Black matriarchs.

It’s the one weapon formed against me that’s actually prospering.

Sushi ordered. Grocery and Meijers orders scheduled. Wine being chilled. Once that sushi hits my doorstep, it’s comedy, sleep and body self-care until Monday at 630a. January needs to get the hell on already. A little less shenanigans for BHM would be great, but with them arresting our journalists…

On May 13, 1985 in Philadelphia, the Pennsylvania State Police dropped a bomb from a helicopter onto a Black neighborhood. 11 people were killed, 5 of whom were children. As we see ICE terrorize communities, understand that saying “this isn’t who we are” is false.

Haven’t lived somewhere w/legit winters since 2020. Wasn’t as heavy into perfume then, mostly date nights and special events. Now that I’m back in the tundra, I realize wearing perfume when it’s below freezing is pointless. Even “beast mode” scents surrender lol. I’ll save them sprays #perfumesky

In all my years of working, moving to Detroit was the first time I felt compelled to tell a boss they be coming to work with that shit on. Fly even on casual Fridays.

How fast can you read??? Lock in annnnnnnnnnd… GO!

New job, new insurance. Took 6 months, via insurance referral, but finally went to see the lady…and it’s a Black Lady millennial. I’m going to be alright yall.

*stares in civil rights compliance officer* Incidents like this fill me w/dread. If I'm doing my job well, folks know who to call/what to do when you receive a picture like that. But also, if I'm doing my job well, administrators like this intentionally don't call bc...reasons. And you end up here.

I love every flavor of these. And they come with a steamer sheet 🙌🏾

Good night

I went to bed at 7p for this reason. Sis will just have to growl into the void because I am tired of cooking and eating.

No #SOTD the last few days to give my nose a rest. I was doing too much with layering and sampling, and my nose glitched. When I’m stressed, I like to take long showers and douse myself in smell goods, or dig into samples. Needless to say, I been STRESSED lately and overdoing it.

And my worry is that he (and noem eventually) will be replaced by folks who will incite the riots this admin wants. As long as Miller (and Vance and Hegseth to lesser extents) is present, I’m hesitant to celebrate this as a win.

She is saying it loud but this is what they mean when they say oh this is not the country I am used to

Thinking about this yesterday: How much of the $75 million in ICE funding going to Tech Bros for surveillance?
