Angela Davis explained all sides of why we are voting Biden in November so well.
The best choice isn’t always your favorite,& that’s life. The stakes are high.
I’m not against dating at all. I’m against people who aren’t ready to date me insisting on dating me, then stressing us both out when they realize they aren’t equipped for what they advertised.
I hate when I realize that someone isn’t a good person, after the fact. After extending grace. After being empathetic & considerate. Full Removal of the rose colored glasses & now my eyes hurt.
In 2022 I want to be a better friend to my existing friends as well as develop some new friendships. Going to try & be intentional about it because I always have so much going on & idk I just want to be more present with the people I care about overall.
Who’s the Hype Williams of today? Like what music video directors are really moving the needle, innovative, out of the box, signature style, creative treatments etc?
Every year that Spotify does wrapped all I can really think about is that a Black girl intern created the entire concept. So when you speak on what brilliant Marketing it is, don’t leave that part out.
I was listening to this thing earlier that said that you need to be able to separate how you feel about someone (which may be overwhelmingly positive), and how that person actually makes you feel in reality(which May be overwhelmingly negative).
I think a telltale sign of you truly being meant to do something is you having been doing it,or some variation of it all your life from childhood.I find it so interesting that many of us think we “picked” something to do with our lives,or chose someone to be. Really it chose us.
Imagine getting pulled over & having to think “damn I might die today” instead of “damn I might get a ticket”.
That is our reality. No matter how “by the book” we are. No matter how educated. No matter how much money we make. No matter how good of a person we choose to be.
Keeping up with texts calls emails DMs across platforms notifications on top of work & life things is A LOT. I swear it’s not normal or healthy to have this much contact with people all day everyday.
Lastly I really hate the concept that as soon as you become a mom you are supposed to lose all sense of self. It’s both unfair & false. & says so much about society. & if you have the wrong man in your life, I’ve seen women just fall into the trap and completely lose themselves.
Ah NOvember. Say No to anything that is no longer serving you & that doesn’t fit the version of yourself you desire to be in the new year. Take real stock of what in your life should stay, what you no longer need, & what you want more of. & Above all remember to simply breathe.

When I actually really like a man I’ll randomly start buying him stuff. & I’m a pretty good & thoughtful gift giver in general. I can be so sweet it’s gross honestly 😭🤢
So I made a sweet potato pie last night & there was leftover filling, so I tried my hand at this sweet potato honey cornbread and I—
Best thing I’ve ever done.
I really really want more talented creatives to get their business in order. It’s the seemingly little things that go a long way. Sometimes people aren’t more talented than you, just truly more organized.
The Barbie rollout is my kinda Marketing. And I’m sure the budget is decent but for me it’s about not being BORING. They are finding every which way to get Barbie into the minds and hands of the masses. Some big ways, some small, some simply cool. That should always be the focus.
It’s crazy how much fear can paralyze a person. Completely stop you from pursuing what you know is inside of you. Don’t let it, you owe yourself more. At least to try at all even if you fail. At least to put up a fight.
Dear Black girl specifically, I beg you...do not shrink yourself, do not give into imposter syndrome, and do not play small. You, yes You are in the room because you’re supposed to be there, and because you’re the brightest star in it.
Choosing 2 of the most influential Black women in the culture right now to comment on and paint in a bad light during a time when your name isn’t really ringing bells isn’t coincidence, or “self defense” it’s strategic defamation. And clownery.
I’m pro release it. Stop sitting on content, ideas, visuals, music, products, events, business ventures. It’s no good to you or the world if only you know about it. Is it going to work? Only 1 way to find out. Release it.
My fave thing about Rihanna’s “maternity looks” is that they aren’t maternity looks,they’re just LOOKS. She’d likely wear any of these outfits if she wasn’t pregnant because she does what she wants.And Women should always do whatever we want. Let’s continue to make that the norm.
As of august 30th Instagram will be getting rid of the swipe up feature In stories in exchange for a “link sticker” instead.
Open to all users This now allows:
-people to comment on stories with links
-people with less than 10k followers to add direct links to stories
Black Women are the best consumer group, period. When we love something we tell everyone about it, & give reviews in detail. Not only will we spend a coin, but if it's a quality brand we remain loyal.
I’m starting to become uncomfortably aware of people who have just never genuinely had my best interest at heart no matter how beautifully and manipulatively they’ve tried to paint it.
