My aunt once took a bunch of us cousins out and she only fed her child while the rest of us looked on. It was a scandal that rocked the family for months. My grandmother was beside herself
5 Jamaicans lost in a music category created by Jamaican people in Jamaica, created out of the Jamaican experience & rooted in Jamaican culture. They lost to an American reggae band from Arlington, Virginia
The UK had 4 prime ministers in the last 6 years. If that was an African or Caribbean country the UK would call us politically unstable and the US would threaten intervention
Y’all driving with AirPods in is wild to me. You don’t drive by sight alone. How you supposed to hear the ambulance? Brakes squealing? People blowing horns to alert you?
I’m sorry but West Indian culture is that you feed guests. You feed everybody. It’s bad manners not to feed people so this entire Swedish/European food discourse is fascinating
Some of y’all tolerate absolutely useless men because you are afraid of being alone and think that a man claiming you is a prize. Love yourself please you’ll be so much further along
The images that come out from Carnival do not reflect the reality. There are a lot of normal bodies on the road happily playing mas. Not everybody is skinny/toned/muscular, light skin & curly hair. Lots of dark skinned people and lots of fat people having the time of their lives
You know if I search your name and “gay” you tweeted about gay people at least twice a month every month for the last year? Even as far back as 2017? Is there something you want to tell the class? 🎤
People come to Barbados looking for Jamaican style food, because that’s their only reference point for anything Caribbean, and then get upset and say the food is bad.
Please be serious
The worst part of the pandemic is the way that we saw so many solutions to help our society function more efficient and after lockdown we went right back to the same old bullshit
“Let me stop you right there…”

Women on social media: I can’t deal with no broke man
Women in real life: babe you need gas money? 🥺 you ate today? I can buy you something and bring it

Jamaicans: the Caribbean is Jamaica & Friends
Also Jamaicans: Lawd God why the other islands hate we so? 🥺 what we do unnu?
lol I believe many men understand sexual harassment and consent very well they just choose to pretend not to. Cause once you explain it in terms of a gay man hitting on them suddenly everything is crystal clear
Getting up at the ass crack of dawn, bathing, getting dressed, making breakfast, fighting morning traffic to go the office to do the same work you could have done at home
I just had a friend tell me that the chip in the new ID card is to track them. The island is 166 sq miles and you’re broke. The govt doesn’t need to track you, you’re not going anywhere
After a certain age you simply must get a grip on your emotions or they will rule you. Stop avoiding difficult conversations just because you aren’t emotionally mature
There’s a lot to do in Barbados but ppl don’t know. There’s horseback riding on the East Coast, ATV riding, jet skiing like anywhere, snorkeling in Carlisle Bay and the West Coast, the light aircraft flights from the Light Airplane club behind the airport
Them lucky cause if you land in Barbados on a one way ticket talking bout group trip, Immigration gine tell you sit down on that bench there and don’t move
I want people to remember that being able bodied is temporary. You are always one small step away from becoming disabled. Something as simple as a fall. Do not take life for granted
