It’s the drugs.

It’s the lead in all the food.

It’s Bush’s fault.

Someone told black men and women to get themselves checked regularly and… there was hostility about it?

Is everyone okay? lol

This girl got mad at me when I said that a good portion of the “Acquire SoftLife” tactics are just rebranded Escort tactics.

I’ll never forget that one girl that got removed from the country club cuz she was trying to eye contact men into paying for her meals and making them uncomfortable.

While I’m on the topic, those soft life videos are leading y’all to get trafficked. That nice man you met that is immediately buying you everything and showing you off around the city and spending crazy bread on you is not your boyfriend, that’s your pimp. You’re an investment and he will cash out.

Financial abuse is one of the most overlooked forms of coercive control. Mel B’s story shows how even those with fame and fortune can be left trapped and powerless. Read more on my Substack.

Advocate for yourself and your loved ones in medical spaces! Don't let medical professionals ignore you or downplay your concerns. Ask for refusals of care to be added to your chart. Seek 2nd, 3rd, 4th opinions if you have to. Listen to your body and intuition when you feel something is wrong.

Maybe:…… @getthebagcoach.bsky.social · 43m

Black adults who live in the United States have a 59% higher risk of premature death than other races…… if you have access to healthcare fasho go get checked… if you feel uncomfortable get a loved one to come with you ❤️

My heart aches for D'Angelo and Angie Stone's son. I know the pain of losing a parent to a terminal illness but I cannot imagine having that happen in the same year as losing the other parent in a car accident. It is so incredibly tragic and unfair for that young man, who is only 26-27 years old.

There’s a lot to say about how Black men are treated as and conditioned to be these sexual beasts at the expense of their humanity, but it’s much too complex of a topic to be had on the interwebs

Thighclops @angelo2firstnames.bsky.social · 1h

D’Angelo has spoken against his sex icon image. He was pushed into that by the label and hated when he was on tour and ladies were treating him like a stripper. I hope in his passing we can celebrate his incredible musicality and dedication to the craft. 🌚
