Mikki Kendall

James, Robert, and Ida on an endless loop

There had to be a better way to state that this CPB used his position to coerce his married, *biological* neice into a relationship.

I think Africville but I don't know for sure.

Women are about to experience a world that insists they only exist to be oppressed if we don't start taking lessons from the past

Ooh thank you

Oh they were doing criminal crimes so probably a factor

They definitely didn't help, but also everybody has the same damned name

And a cousin and a son and a nephew. THEY ALL HAVE THE SAME DAMNED NAME

Then because we like to make things complicated, they lived in the same places and worked at some of the same jobs. Because why make things clear in the records later?

So in tracking down ancestry records, why are old Black people like this in every country? Because my great grandfather appears to have been born in Nova Scotia and then moved to Virginia. He and his cousin have the same first and last name.

The scams are proliferating

6. One of which I'm allergic to and 3 that are just kind of icky

I am guessing AME based on where we went to church later

I think Nova Scotia, it isn't Quebec and ancestry insists I have some Acadian heritage

I've known one of my friends since 1st grade. And several since high school. Though part of that is the fact that we tried to keep in touch even through life's changes

I have a US Census record where he isn't naturalized and complicating things his family moved to Canada Virginia which doesn't exist any more.

This is exactly what I needed in my day

Oh hold on I might be Canadian. Though I don't know if he had a birth certificate.

Yes. We can talk about anything but actually yelling at me? Immediately no

Mikki that sounds violent...it is. I don't do loud men. You get to yelling and we are wrapping this whole thing up. My granddaddy didn't yell so you can't either.

Even if you win you can't yell at me. Men yelling makes me think they have too many inside voices so time to open them up and let the air out.

Unless you're diabetic, fructose is generally no problem. Especially paired with protein and fiber

Hey so remember when I said white women are endangering their own freedom when they cozy up to white supremacy? And that the hard right fantasies do not include sharing power with women? Yeah so the not so quiet part is here

Get Bone Sandals on the phone...

"Why can't we have a calm discussion about AI?"

Cuz the data centers are being built carelessly and at speed, polluting poor neighborhoods, cuz it's drinking my fucking aquifer, and cuz all my art and writing have been plagisrized while the worst assholes crow about my impending obsolescense...

Spicy is always the right step

May her memory be a comfort

This feels like an attack.

Ooh I bet mustard greens would be good too

I grew up on a pot of beans with smoked meat and I will never give that up.
