So I wrote a project that I’m super proud of.
Muvaship is a sci-fi short film that centers Black women. I was inspired by the great Octavia Butler.

(like the ones in power in this capitalist imperialist nation we live in) not to distance ourselves from our struggling comrades. It’s gross.

Seeing Black people be antagonistic and just plain evil toward Palestinians and immigrants post election makes me so sad. Like are y’all prioritizing the Democratic Party over real life human beings??

[who’s that girl? IT’S JESS @JessKickinIt_]

Now I’ve written about Black women being mules for society (especially in Muvaship) but my point has been to divest from those who do not see us human and just use us as tools to get their needs covered

I cry on this one and the Baby Race one every. single. time.

I’m watching Bluey for the first time with Fox, and they’re tackling one of the characters (ostensibly) having fertility issues. My God I am sobbing.

Pretty sure insulting/dismissing voters - even if they’re annoying you, disrupting you, protesting you - in a key swing state isn’t the best way to win that state. Assuming that they *have* to vote for you, otherwise Trump will win, doesn’t work. Just ask Hillary Clinton 🤷🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

@uwizee I would just do that last bit on a loop

This would’ve been me

God gave him the wrong class because the way I would’ve hit the cleanest mf routine for a free A 😭😭

I think the Cord Jefferson quote was dropped right in the midst of the very weird and anti Black “I’m scared of hood people” discourse & people are reading dislike of poor Black folk into his quote rather than his dislike of the film industry’s barriers

That was an anticlimactic Best Picture announcement. I was kinda cool with any of them winning except Barbie 🫣

This is the first year I’ve watched all the Best Picture nominees BEFORE the #Oscars

[who’s that girl? IT’S JESS @JessKickinIt_]

Honestly watching movies with my husband is my favorite thing to do. Basing it off the Oscar’s list allowed us to agree on what to watch without much disagreement. It’s been fun to relive our memories/ conversations while watching the award show.
