I always feel like I’m racing against time when I buy bananas and don’t get me started on organic bananas, that’s a commitment

Not someone I know posting that god has always made a way for her, you come from generational wealth. Her parents are personal friends of Kamala Harris…baby you were always going to be okay 😩

My weird trait is that I stop eating because I’m tired of chewing not because I’m full 🤣 or maybe I just feel like doing something else

Me: hm why did I just find a man attractive?
My subconscious: cuz he looks like a girl
#packitup #everythinggoesbacktowomen

The only thing worst than being broke is having a broke family 🤣😩 like because why are we all scrounging up chicken change. I appreciate it the effort 🤧

I HATE DRIVING!! PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY SO MEAN. I didn’t even do anything wrong! I made a U-turn, no signs said I couldn’t.I did it FAST, oncoming traffic suddenly had a green honked at me literally WHAT DO YOU WANT YALL WERE RED WHEN I WAS TURNING. I HAD GREEN 🤧 stupid drivers

I hate how my water intake decreases when I’m out of my house. Vacations, sleep overs at someone else’s house. Need my emotional support #stanley

One of the worst words that’s been culture-vultured/commodified in the black community is ‘hustle’ I cannot stand seeing other races say ‘[side] hustle’. People would vilify anyone who worked a 2nd job 20 years ago, now we’re using ‘side hustle’ casually. Nah baby go ahead and stick to #gigwork

My dream in life is to be one of those ice cups from a Korean 7/11

The icloud, the google One storage...we need a revolution cuz I shouldn't have to pay for extra storage. 15 GB is NOTHINGG, at least start at 100 GB and then have storage options after! 🤬

My next challenge is getting #agented and climbing Mount #Kilimanjaro, the highest peak in Africa.
I think I'm the main character 😅🤣

I always downplay my crazy aspirations as normal but I truly am 'crazy but free':
1) Completed Nanowrimo at 17, wrote my first novel
2) Cut my hair 2 steps away from bald and wore it out
3) Lived in a remote African village for 27 months
4) Wrote 2 novels

Legos are just slightly more masculine puzzles

Venezuelan makeup artist returns home, describes torture during El Salvador detention A makeup artist who became the face of more than 250 Venezuelan migrants deported by the U.S. to El Salvador's most notorious prison arrived home to his family on Wednesday after what he described as "an encounter with torture and death."

Andry Hernandez, a gay makeup artist deported by the U.S. to El Salvador's most notorious prison, arrived home to his family after what he described as "an encounter with torture and death." He said prisoners were beaten, shot with rubber projectiles, held in dark cells, and served rotten food.

Breaking out when I’m not on my period is scary because then it means it’s here to stay 🫠

I can’t be the only one who can’t watch fictional movies w/ my parent. My mom would see #kpopdemonhunters and say ‘see, you never know the demons that walk among us. They’re in the secular music!’ Anyway, stream #YourIdol and #Golden 🤣

Some people want enough money to buy a house. Me? I want a Coca Cola freestyle machine 🌚

I watch a tutorial every 6 months to make sure I remember everything ahahaha

Everyone needs to use their winking capabilities more!

Looks good to me!

I tried to make a yogurt bowl w/ a hardshell chocolate top. Made the chocolate too thick and something healthy turned into pure chocolate real quick 🤣 oh well try again tomolly

Happy Bastille Day

Oh this is god tier tropes!! ❤️🤩

I love opening up the news and seeing 'Measles make a comeback' as a headline. I love seeing that as a public health major who was taught how devasting it is on children and how we were supposed to eradicate it by now because ya know, we have a vaccine.
Love this timeline for us!

If you want a #MAGA pov, my maga fam is watching a doc about CECOT and how bad it is. You’d think the takeaway is yikes, how inhumane that is to send ppl there. Nope the takeaway is ‘serves em right for crossing made up borders’. I’m from an immigrant family btw 🫠

My day will now consist of waiting for my mom to cut the watermelon I bought yesterday. If I picked a good one, I will be rewarded with a verbal good job and watermelon slice

Drawing and writing is a double threat! We def need more queer books!

I don't have 187 pages, I used a random # generator and got page 133 which is...

Not only could Angel barely contain the burden of this huge secret, he figured telling the others could help come up with a plan to save Amber.
