Same costume, 12 years apart 🥲

Last night was hella fun 👻🎃

Happy Halloween from the Kiddos 🎃🧙🏽‍♀️

We’re a quarter of a century into the 2000s and still don’t have teleportation technology. This is a ghetto ass timeline.

Not to be THAT dictionary, but… It’s ‘per se,’ not ‘per say.’ It’s ‘dog-eat-dog world,’ not ‘doggy-dog world.’ It’s ‘hunger pangs,’ not ‘hunger pains.’ It’s ‘one and the same,’ not ‘one in the same.’ It's 'buck naked,' not 'butt naked.'

Who: Handsome Squidward. Why: We’re kindred spirits 😂

“Bring it around town. Bring it arooouuuuuuund town.” “C-A-M-P-F-I-R-E S-O-N-G song, C-A-M-P-F-I-R-E S-O-N-G song, C-A-M-P-F-I-R-E S-O-N-G song”

Not Apple curating my personal “Get Up! Mix” in the likeness of my inner church p0nk. 😑 *Also me cutting a step between each set with an occasional vocalized quickening*

😆 🏆 “Billionaires against Mamdani” “Slow and expensive buses” Too good

My journey of healing my inner child required me to realize that I didn’t have much of one to begin with, and constantly being referred to as an “old soul” is one of my biggest lines of evidence (research “parentification” and/or “adultification”). I’m healing by building up my inner child.

Healing more and more every second of everyday

Alright now, Conja!!!🥵😮‍💨

Rest well, D’Angelo. **Cues “How Does It Feel”**

“Do you have a bottle of Windex in your pants cause I can see myself in them” Me:

I should probably slide in someone DMs.

Trump wants credit for ending conflicts abroad while waging war here at home.

What did the cereal bring to the bank? Chex.

I’ve been having conversations along this vein for the past few days — conversations about the way my Blackness x Black Queerness manifests in a way that people within the community question my allegiance to the “community(ities)” if not ostracize me all together.

You’re not poor because you’re bad with money, you’re poor because everything is too expensive and your job doesn’t pay enough.

A couple weeks ago, I was scrolling LinkedIn, dodging ICE recruitment ads left & right, and came across a post seeking out fellow DRPers b/c he’s writing an anthology it/us. One commenter, on her “moral high horse,” was like “stayed true to the mission, still have a job” — now she’s furloughed

Me: Whew, it’s chilly. Frugal Me: Thank goodness this electricity bill is finally about to start coming down.

Having blueberry basil salad, spinach & artichoke quiche, and golden honeydew as brunch for dinner

There they go tugging on their meat in the sauna again Me:

Couldn’t pass up a photo with Q @rupauldragrace.bsky.social

The United States simplified: Plymouth Rock Immigrants vs. Ellis Island Immigrants vs. Southern Border Immigrants Me, a Black American:

On my ‘oontz oontz’ shit music.apple.com/us/album/tak...

I’m stoned bootz. Yes, I’m dating myself.

I’m already ready to rewatch The Summer Hikaru Died! Oh yeah, I have the manga so I’ll be digging into it too! 🤪

Really was hoping the Block/Unblock method would allow me remove a follower, but it didn’t work that way. The weak ass “critiques” of Former VP Harris are just unproductive and uncalled for. SHE WARNED Y’ALL! MOST of y’all, the contrarians that is, refused to see the forest for the trees.

Finally catching up on Invasion (AppleTV+).

People think Catholic/Protestant rifts only exists in Ireland and it shows

You can’t find the right candidate cause the candidates are in a group chat talking about how it takes you 6+ months to hire. You can’t find the right candidate cause the person with the best resume/interview declined and went and told all their friends how shitty your process was

There have been two hosts in the history of Reading Rainbow. The Legend of Literacy, LeVar Burton! And... me, Mychal Threets, a librarian 🥹🤯 I am a reader, a librarian because LeVar Burton and Reading Rainbow made us believe and see we belong in books, we belong everywhere ✨ youtu.be/e7es7qdWVnU

Happy Hoodoo Heritage Month! I remember being asked how I reconciled my spiritual practice with my religious practice. I was the resident tarot reader at a metaphysical shop by Saturday and bumping the saints into praise breaks on the Hammond on Sunday. Here’s the thing. My spiritual practice was

Tim Burton’s heartwarming story of the innocently endearing character who cannot touch others will charm audiences new and old when Edward Scissorhands makes its debut on digital retailers on October 28 just in time for the Halloween season.

If vote for a candidate who campaigned on policies that would decimate your industry, you’re not a victim. You’re just stupid and you’re responsible for your failure 🤷🏽‍♀️

This also goes for being LGBT and in the Black church.

“Aht aht. Get back on them knees. Stop being lazy.” Me to yet another bait-and-switch top.

This is such good news, Mychal is the perfect host for a Reading Rainbow reboot

Looking at all the pictures from Folsom wishing I’d been there

So exhausting..

‘Cause the way my RSD has me in a chokehold

The Beautiful Ones

My knee rehabilitation is coming along nicely. Also, I’m surprised that I’m lean-ish at 193lbs while just being barely over 5’6 🫠

Me after hearing The Rapture is supposed to be today

Yes!

I am not for everyone. I am not even for some. At best, I am an acquired taste. At worst, I am someone to escape. But I am me. And that works for the few who see.
