Black people that are homophobic, biphobic and transphobic will always simultaneously break my heart and make me sick to my stomach.

Do not debate white people about your humanity. It will be a waste of your time and they are not going to change their minds.

That’s their superpower. They’re able to tap out of anything that’s not white centered.

White people be like I'm studying to be antiracist. Wait I have to listen to a Black person & believe them? Naw that's too much, I'm out.

Jokes aside this nation is exhausting.

Mind your mental health and surround yourself with folk who authenticity return your love.

How many Black people died trying to get civil rights?

Like if civility was all it took, we would not still be here.

if i had the opportunity to ask a question of anyone in the administration, given this "war in chicago" messaging, i would ask them how many americans the president intends to kill in his war

This is real life. We really dealing with the worst administration known to man and we just gotta keep trucking like everything is ok.

It’s bleak, bro.

Learning when to shut up is an underrated skill.

Even if you hate your job, don’t leave. Now is not the time.

Pursuing a woman and proceeding to treat her as if she deserves nothing don’t sound crazy to you?

You don’t want to celebrate her, buy her flowers, buy her gifts, pay for things? You obviously don’t like her, just the idea of her because you were ONLY physically attracted!

I think a lot of it is because more people are avoidants than they realize.

Just saw someone refer to the β€œmale loneliness epidemic” as the β€œmale consequences epidemic” and I just think that’s so much more accurate.

Black people are not a societal problem. Racism against Black people is.

But for those who acknowledge they've done harm, apologize for that harm, change the behaviours that caused that harm, And seek to make sure others don't cause the harms they themselves have caused? What else is repair and transformation if not that?

…But it is also the case that those directly harmed are under No obligation to accept anything at all from those who harmed them, no matter how heartfelt.

And those facts have to sit in tension.

But i try to hold space for true change.
