I feel like they just gave up on preteen content because where was the promo for The Spiderwick Chronicles. If you have Roku, share the show with the young people in your life.

This is unsafe for women and here is how you turn it off. Go to settings, general, airdrop, you’ll see an option for “start sharing by bringing devices together”. Turn the toggle off.

I know Barbie is getting all the buzz this weekend but #TheyClonedTyrone is fantastic. Smart, funny, great acting, and imaginative writing. This film deserves our support so let’s go hard!

Congrats to this entire team of talented people who made this happen !

With the whole cis and cisgender (see the #CisIsNotASlur) thing happening right now, please remember this 👇🏾.

this the correct energy PERIOD. especially now that we’re finally bringing all the Sleepy Hollow stuff to light — from day one I need studios putting Black actresses in these roles to stand behind them LOUDLY and publicly call out racism BY NAME in media coverage & in fandom

Y’all: We gotta hype up Marsai Martin’s stuff when it comes out! She’s gonna make it big and start changing things for the black tv/film industry! All of y’all BETTER tune in! 😤

Also y’all: *Not watching/hyping up her brand new Disney series Saturdays 🙃*

@Katinesss @splendourella @leighleighmw @Imani_Barbarin You can leash train a cat. It just takes some time and persistence.

@iamevnbn @mkees1 @notcapnamerica Are these prescription contacts or do I have to wear my glasses ?

[Amari Watson @StateofAmari]

@Chris_theGeek @nct_yeet @KG_in_CA @notcapnamerica I was told by my allergist that blood tests often come back with false positives for food allergies and that skin tests and an elimination diet are more accurate.

[Amari Watson @StateofAmari]

@nct_yeet @Chris_theGeek @KG_in_CA @notcapnamerica I just want to say that skin tests are incredibly more accurate than blood tests. Doctor should have went with skin test results.

My child is banned from the school playground/canteen for her hair, its neatly braided in a natural colour, I gave them a lesson on the history of black womens hairs cultural significance of braiding, they chose violence, @BishopChalloner has a racist hair policy!!!

@boraussy @JP_Hart_ @Olas_Truth They’re definitely on the appreciation side now but when they first debuted it was appropriation and black phishing on Namjoon’s part if we’re gonna be honest.

In 2019 I started the first ever all black boys gymnastics team. We used someone else’s gym on weekends & had very little equipment. We have grown so much in 3 years. Would you please help us to continued to grow by donating to our spring floor fundraiser https://t.co/5egDPjbvAN

“Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed” is based on the extremely popular Mother Goose rhyme, “The Ten Little [N-word]s,” plus another song about Black children suffering: “Shortnin’ Bread.” The word “monkey” was swapped in to hide the racism. A🧵by a children’s librarian.

🖤🥳✨Just saaaying if you’re into Tenoch (I see you all LOL) & wanting to support Indigenous writers of Central America…maybe consider buying or ordering SAINTS OF THE HOUSEHOLD from your library and support your girl 🖤🥳✨

Netflix so weird the guy who made Coraline (Henry Selick) a literal horror HIT and Jordan Peele a current horror legend worked together on Wendell & Wild. And has a cast like Angela Bassett, Peele himself AND Key, and Lyric Ross as the main. Why would you not be promoting this?

I had been trying to verbalize this sentiment for years — when I witnessed siblings speaking on each other’s experiences

[Ernie Chiara @erniechiara]

Querying writers, I know it’s frustrating. Believe me, I know. I’ve been on both sides of it. But don’t do this. Get out, touch some grass, vent to friends. Whatever you need to do. But this is not going to help you. 1/1
