I’m Abu. I don’t take myself too seriously, so you don’t have to. Unless I tell you to 🫵🏿😠 Let’s see.. 🇸🇱 but born in the US (raised in Georgia). ADHD-I. Can’t say I’m an ally, but I like being good to people. Growing in the art of the “eh heh.”

Op! Friends, a heads up, I was offline from (January ) 2020-2024. (off instagram for longer and fb? HA!) like not even a peek, so I may be behind on some pop culture-y things. I focused up internally during that time. Wanted to “quiet the room” a bit.

Mamdani: "I just want to speak directly to the president. I will not be a mayor like Mayor Adams who will call you to stay out of jail. I won't be a disgraced governor like Andrew Cuomo who will call you to ask how to win this election. I can do those things on my own."

This (mfer) is nothin’ but a tacky ass Ghiren Zabi (You have to be into Gundam to understand this reference.)

From Mobile Suit Gundam, an antagonist. I can’t explain fully in microblogging terms, but they were making the villains analogous to the Third Reich. Anywho, space military suit with slick back gray hair, white gloves, gold epaulettes, red and gold etchings. He’s in front of a desk meant for speeches by delegates, with fist raised to the sky.

My cousins are from uptown, PG, Anne Arundel, and are scattered all over NOVA on my dad’s side. I can call them crazy without batting an eyelid.

I can’t stunt, I jokingly thought there was some hidden evil force bringing all the terrible drivers in driver-dom to this concentrated area…which helps…but my extended family is local. It’s some of these crazy natives too. Lmao.

I live in North Carolina and whenever I drive to Raleigh-Durham or up to DC I can count on the person in front of me driving slow as hell in the left lane being a Virginian.

MonsterKing @cerromerussell.blacksky.app · 7h

I'm starting a petition to end driving for all Virginians. Yall are a menace to society and a danger on the road.

😅Took my wife and California-pilled kids to Waffle House, 2 days in row. Kids now addicted. Waitresses were so kind and welcoming!

Went on 3rd day with my sister to order for pickup. Waitresses were cold and mean!

At one point we had to call my wife to confirm her order.

Waitresses: "Oh! Sister!"

Oh, I ate it. Lmao. Literally felt like I was eating my words. 😭

I had my shoulders all hunched up.

“I ain’t eatin’ no fig newton and eve leaf pizza, woman!”

And then I only took my lame ass sausage and bacon pizza in the to-go box.

Whole DMV has obnoxiously annoying drivers with different elements of ridiculous attached to them.

Maryland drivers ain't much better. Everybody drives like your headed to get rid of a dirty pistol.

The easiest economic lesson can be taught right now is the world’s sentiment on the stability of a nation and its economic productivity as represented in the relative pricing of its currency.

Put a toddler behind a ferrari with bozo mechanics and you get this.

That’s crazy. I wonder what happened in January

The pizza wasn’t arugula, y’all know what I’m saying. It had Arugula on it. Shit was fi’e doe. 😭 I’m so disappointed with myself.

It also reminded me of the post that got me on to his page. Where the straight man can’t do nothin’! (Said in meninist white man overtone. 😭)

Not gonna hold y’all, but this is my reaction every time I had something “high siddidy” that I end up finishing. After making fun of it.

Example: I was on a pizza date once and the woman (who is Nigerian) ordered an arugula pizza with goat cheese and fig sauce.

Dis was me:

I just want you all to know that when we told you that they wanted to destroy everything and you thought Black women were exaggerating? This was the "ironic" racism you said we were overreacting to 10 years ago. Racism has never had generational limits

Disappointed to see many settlers near my home community in an uproar over my Nation’s majority owned wind farm project. A lot of citing of disinformation from right winged lobby groups, and racist attacking of Indigenous sovereignty.
