Kindergarten Cop. And I know this because IMMEDIATELY my mind said “IT IS NAHT A TOOMAH” 🤣

It is a deep honor to share what I have, to share what I CAN, with the people I love. When given the chance I will do it as often as possible.

I am most grateful to have learned two important things over the years:

1) I don’t have to take any of my moods seriously.

2) While I can be responsive to how my mood impacts others, I do not have to take responsibility for their experience, and vice versa.

Still.

Amen! Look at my home state making me look good! 😌

I’m beginning to think that one of the most harmful misuse of terms in SJ might be “intention is less important than impact”. Surely it doesn’t matter as much when addressing damage caused, but presuming intention doesn’t matter w/in the context of community is a gross oversight, IMO.

I just put in entirely too much work to log back into here after deleting the app off my phone months ago. 🤣

I would like a National Day of Silence. Not for any particular reason other than for folk to practice the joys of extended quiet for once.

I swear, life with my friends would be so much more frustrating if I didn’t understand Human Design. Most of them are Generators/MGs and they are RANDOM A. F. 🤣

That was so sweet for Blue Ivy to let her mama sing at her concert like that.

Those are the first songs I thought about! 😂

The second one too! He just sounded more sophisticated but he was still right in the thick of it 😆

The whole first album was a hoe phase on wax!

Okay, so it’s agreed that #WhatHadHappenedWas is Jamie Foxx’s best work, right? WHEW, my eyes are sweating! 🥹

“I am so hip, even my errors are correct…

“I cannot be comprehended, except by my permission…

“I mean I can fly, like a bird in the sky.”

Thank you for teaching us how to love ourselves, Ms. Nikki. RIP🙏🏿🕊️💜

If you didn’t have to memorize Egotrippin’ or a similar product of the Black Arts movement as part of your Black History Month or forensics performance then you and I are NOT the same. 😆

Okay, so GNX is all-around solid, but the specific hold luther has on me needs to be studied. One for the ‘90’s good girl’ books 😍

So here's the thing: I think a lot of people aren't knowledgeable enough about the spectrum of polyamory or are just plain reluctant to admit that they already are in polyamorous relationships. Think about your levels of intimacy, outside of your marriage, with your friends...

The vitriol that comes up for me about stories like this…

Looking at today’s transits I’d say that the kids born today are gonna be NUTS 🤣 #HDTalk

LISTEN…I need to re-up on mine right now, so I don’t blame you! That said, it costs $54 so I’ll be damned if I’d share with ANYBODY not breaking bread! 😆

Okay, so I knew there was a reason I was resisting BlackSky right now and I think it’s because God knew I would rather #AddToBlackSkyOver40 🤣🤣🤣

LMAO—not the audacity of wanting some of but not putting in on this hyaluronic acid thoooo!

This is difficult, but here’s my favorite from when I was a kid:

Okay, so right off the bat: one thing I like more about Threads vs. here is the ability to do quick edits of your posts. Sometimes it ain’t about backtracking what you said; sometimes you really DO just need to fix a typo! lol

“The future is made for those who can be the most delulu”, or whatever it was Eleanor Roosevelt said.

And Of COURSE I downloaded a new social media app on a 4th-line day. 😆
