@EBONYTUSKS At least nobody can I say I didn’t try, right?

I had a gathering of my family & friends on Christmas. & the family that was there was 98% church folk.

It really bothered me that the church folk separated themselves and didn’t even attempt to include my friends (the “non church folk”) at all.

It’s still bothering me

[Erica Jay @EricaJaySays]

And yes my friends know that the family are church people.

This is why I keep everybody separate. And why my friends get more access to me than my family.

I have it the good ol college try, won’t ever do that again.

[Erica Jay @EricaJaySays]

Ima need them to stop acting like they are confused as to why they can’t get ppl my age to join the church. Cuz all y’all gon do is alienate them.

I mean I’m alienated right now cuz I don’t go to the church.

At just 36, Ryan Coogler is a creative force like no other in Hollywood, after spending some time with him , it is the way he moves with so much intentionality and humility, he is a shining example to us all.

These are two portraits I took of him in Lagos for @britishvogue

@CoochCakes YouTube! We watch it on their channel

It’s always “Hey you should call this person and check on them” and never “hey I’m just calling YOU to check on YOU”

And for the record I do check on people - a lot.

Today would’ve been George Floyd’s 49th birthday. I want to remember him for something that he loved–hoopin’.

This is a picture of Floyd while playing college ball at South Florida State College, where he averaged a solid 14 per game (that’s not as easy as some of y’all think).

I found this picture by Jebb Avenue/Brixton Prison bus stop. Must've slipped out of a wallet. It looks very precious and I imagine whoever lost it on their travels will be devastated.

Can we do that thing? Retweet, share, reunite owner and photograph?

[Erica Jay @EricaJaySays]

@HomeGirlsUnite Not me hitting all 5. Sheesh.

This sweet older lady at this event just said

“You know the doctor told me I gotta gain weight on my hip replacement side. I told him HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO GAIN WEIGHT IN ONE HIP?!”

Y’all. I died laughing. She has a point tho.
