It’s funny how great singers are often also great impressionists. Having that kind of command over your voice lets you do whatever lol.

When she was a student in a class taught by W.E.B. Du Bois, Lorraine Hansberry wrote down a point he made:

β€œSomehow you have got to know more than what you experience individually.”

Black trans people are black, so it IS happening to black people right now and will only get worse.

Obama’s change in policy towards Cuba and the JCPOA happened, the world didn’t end, everything was fine. Part of manufacturing consent for more war is purposefully forgetting the very recent memory when it was proven to be wholly unnecessary.

It’s been oddly surreal to hear the news framing the news around regime change in Iran and Cuba as the culmination of decades of shared agreement when Obama did significantly change US policy towards both in pretty recent memory.

Idk if anybody else has tried the human hair crochet but they need to figure out how to not have the knots/clip(?) where the string meets the hair be so fucking rigid and itchy. It drove me so crazy otherwise it was such a cute style and easy to manage

So ask yourselves why you dismiss us?

Ask why it is you demand our physical labor but rebuke our intellect

You'll have to sit with yourself to do that & the way you make excuses it'll take some time -brutal honesty re figuring out why you stay disrespectful towards us

Help you help yourselves

The jolly rancher candy canes are some of the best candy ever created. Zots also GOATed. Nerds ropes? Amazing. Dum dum, delicious. Heath bars are the best chocolate bars. Cream savers are heaven sent. Mango altoids sours are incredible. Sweetarts sweethearts are better than brachs, but I like both.
