is god is has a southern-gothic blaxploitation meets kill bill type of feel. i enjoyed it. not a horror film but if you are squeamish about blood, maybe watch something else.

Yea rejection is protection! If Olandria had ended up with Taylor, he might’ve held her back 😕 He does not sound supportive at all with Clarke, just focused on him and his dreams #loveislqnd#beyondthevilla
Ghana taught you that the quiet, obedient child is good and the questioning child is a problem. Now look at Ghana's institutions full of grown-up good children watching billions disappear and saying nothing. We built the perfect employee for a corrupt state.
Fibroids are literally a personal hell for Black women...self included. I'm glad Lupita is raising awareness. I'd be happier if more research funds went into understanding the reasons why Black women experience fibroids much earlier and w/ greater complications than other groups
I can’t talk music with you if you’re unaware of Ghana’s pivotal role in developing Afrobeats as we know it today.
Do you know how many Nigerian legends credit Ghanaian highlife as a source of inspiration and influence?

Love Harper but they’ve made it clear in prior seasons that she is not the lead of the show. And I say this because until this season, she was barely marketed in a way a “lead” would be. Like my girl should’ve gotten Kerry Washington levels of fame. This is an ensemble cast show
Professor Justin McDaniel, the tenured chair of the religious-studies department at the University of Pennsylvania, has found a way to make his students read again. They don’t write papers or take tests; instead, he asks them to follow a strict set of behavioral constraints. They must give up their cell phones and other worldly distractions, including, in one course, sex.
At a recent reading group based on his influential class Existential Despair — where students gather one evening each week for seven or eight hours to read an entire novel start to finish in total silence, then discuss it in a darkened classroom — McDaniel welcomed a dozen former students and a couple of his friends to his apartment in Philadelphia. As his guests gathered, McDaniel reminded them of the first expectation for the night. “You cannot introduce yourself by anything about you,” he said. “I don’t want to hear any majors. I don’t want to hear any jobs. I don’t want to hear any impressive things about you at all.”

@kissikizzi@elefaantz No what’s upsetting people is the fact that some people who hate their hair don’t hate it in isolation, they openly make comments trying to get other people to collectively hate it with them - one example, making blanket statements about how difficult 4c hair is to manage
the 4c hair complaints always boil down to simply not liking the way your hair looks. that's something you're just gonna have to work through and stop avoiding.
