[lara @laracentric]

just wrote the best essay of my life about why we smoke and the aesthetic pull of self-destruction.

[lara @laracentric]

on ciggies, female interiority, performing complexity, oral fixation, tracey emin, inverted nipples in paris, dot cotton, vape-hatred and what keeps us smokers coming back for just one more drag

[lara @laracentric]

a few brittle boned fasicists aint said shit about the E files. Aint even made it onto the docket.

[lara @laracentric]

The heartbreaking qualities of life are so much louder than the joyful parts, why?

[lara @laracentric]

All the district line knows is “we’re being held here at a red signal apologies for the delay” and it’s everyday? Nothing says sorry like changed behaviour

[untamed yapper @jeremiahajayi_]

Many Nigerians grew up in environments where obedience was enforced over independent thought.

This is why many struggle with critical thinking, self-advocacy, and the courage to challenge authority.

It’s why we are where we are.

In the club tryna read SUBATACK and it WON’T LOAD

@chlorisdemeter This is so good!!!

[lara @laracentric]

I used to think I loved the feeling of holding my breath, when really I love the feeling of coming up for air.

[lara @laracentric]

I miss queen simmy man

@baithoeven LOOOOOL

[lara @laracentric]

@haneeefahhh This is so unnecessarily mean and cruel. Why can’t black women talk about themselves with the upmost confidence in their steez and what do you gain by trying to put her down?

[lara @laracentric]

I can’t wait to read them!

[Jaws. @chlorisdemeter]

I've already eaten 5 eggs today

[lara @laracentric]

Food stalls are so overrated. Why am I paying the same price as eating lunch in a sit-down establishment for something cooked on a street corner? So now I’m forced to eat my lunch in the office, the same place I’m trying to forget about for an hour.

[lara @laracentric]

This is what love is all about

[Roxy @RoxyTall]

mum asked me if i wanted some lemons from her tree. i said yes so she brought me 45 lemons. what am i supposed to do with 45 lemons

[stressed @onlystresstoday]

resentment is weird because yes i want to forgive you, whole heartedly so but my mind is struggling to comprehend why did you do that to me.

[lara @laracentric]

What is this? Can smell this dudes brain rot through my phone 🤢

[Pay Roll Manager Here @UsingLyft]

More women need to embrace being side chicks or accepting their man will have them. Get over it. Too many of you are staying single and never having kids just cuz you can’t handle this despite having your standards so wacky it’s almost guaranteed you deal w it anyway. Get over it

[lara @laracentric]

@baithoeven Get a fake one to test it out. Ring and a stud see what vibe you’re on
