In 2017, I paid Cards Against Humanity to protect a pristine plot of border land from Trump’s racist wall. But then an even richer, more racist billionaire—Elon Musk—stole my land and dumped his shit all over it. @ElonMusk owes me $100. #ElonOwesMe100Bucks https://t.co/Pf7AKzVdFx
I know everybody is going to get these jokes off about Diddy, and by extension R Kelly, but think of the numerous Black women whose lives were ruined by these horrendous people. The narrative is not, another Black man got taken down — cause this ain’t got shit to do with Black men as a whole. The narrative is, thank God these women are finally getting the justice they deserve.
Okay let’s do this:
1. my wife waiting to see how I’m going to butcher essential details about our own children.
2. My mother hoping I don’t fuck up my solo in the recital.
3. I’ve walked through the door, 2hrs after curfew not already dead, which was my only way to stay alive.
@omarokai@VertigoTheatreP @laChanze @TheColorPurple You absolutely can steal a concept for a show. IT. HAPPENED. I'm speaking specifically about the revival. All of the writers were in on it, including Oprah.
I just wanna opt out of capitalism.
I don’t wanna work, pay rent and bills, watch multiple genocides live on social media, have my tax dollars fund these genocides, have to pay $5,000+ in move in fees to rent a decent place & pay $15+ for a small pack of chicken.
I’m tired.
The fact that trauma survivors are often highly sensitive & have this overdeveloped sense of empathy can make it hard for us to hold abusers accountable, or to cut ties when we need to.
We wanna give everyone second & third & fourth chances-- everyone but ourselves, of course.
