I know we all obsessed with Aaron Pierre rn, but I have to say, he gives ‘Gowns. Beautiful gowns’. Cuz baby is beyond jejune when he speaks.😅 I be yawning.🥱 Plus, he truly doesn’t answer interview questions, but it goes unnoticed cuz them looks! Them looks be looking! Gowns. B-E-A-utiful gowns. 👀

When my mom was sick & in pain, she was…restless. (That’s the tamest way to describe it). The ONLY song that completely calmed her down was Beyoncé’s “MY ROSE” 🌹. Idk what angelic serum Beyoncé injected into the melody, but it lulled my mom’s spirit whenever it played. So I played it. She received.

So I’m re-listening to Friday Night Lights by J. Cole, and it is so good. Like 14 years later, it’s still so goodt! 🥹The production and lyrics are extremely theatrical.

Like Cole, (if he weren’t such a stubborn & raging misogynoirist) should compose musicals.

That “We Listen and We Do Not Judge” challenge is diabolical. Some of the confessions? Especially with the heterosexual couples? Atrocious what some will allow. Y’all’s partners actually HATE y’all. And you’re giggling???🥴

I judge.
I jury.
I executioner.

A Day Of Remembrance. 🕊️

This era is truly about finding your people and making meaning with them. What is coming is designed to disrupt, deplete, and disintegrate the masses. But despite what may be done to us, we have a say in what we allow ourselves to receive.

Do NOT comply ahead of time.
Do NOT concede in readiness.

So I was reading bell hooks describe conditions of enslaved Black pregnant women during the transatlantic slave trade. As in what life was like for pregnant Black women aboard the ships? And BIHHH! I’m livid. It’s things you don’t ever consider. Like malnutrition & labor pains without community. 😢😭

Both tall, lightskinned, musically inclined, with lion-esque large heads to match. An ancestry test would be understandable. 🤷🏾‍♀️😭🤭
