…he ended up blocking your Finsta on IG.

yikes.
a Foxholer slid into my DMs today with this spicy dilemma,
and it’s been simmering on my mind ever since.
first things first…

I had to wonder:
Have you ever just had to curse God out real stink?
Ugh.

yesterday,
i woke up feeling on top of the forest,
with a perfectly curated plan for my week.
by evening,
life threw a curve ball straight to my gut.
naturally,
i did what any rational but slightly unhinged new yawker would do…

Have you ever met someone who says things so ridiculous you start questioning their intelligence?

for today’s example,
let me introduce you to angela stanton king.
apparently,
in her limited and fear-mongering forest:

Being gay is a “democrat thing”

yes,
you read that right.
according to her,
90% of male democrats are waving rainbow flags and love carly rae jepsen.
her proof?
an alleged flub that roland martin got caught with some other guy’s pants down on his screen.

Breaking 🚨 Democrat @rolandsmartin forgot to edit this clip. We were all forced to watch his love and admiration for Black male Buttocks as they casually scrolled across his screen.

I told yall in a post I wrote a few weeks back that 90% of the men I know that still represent… pic.twitter.com/Hl5nEg8bCs

shocking,
i know,
but let’s pause for a second.
angela…

Have you ever noticed how we try to find flowers in the trash?

last night,
i caught up with a friend who are is in the middle of separation/divorce.
sadly,
she has latched onto a rebound.

A jackal that she knows is a complete disaster.

at 37,
with two kids,
weight gain from stress,
and insecurities eating away at her…

We’re in the middle of a major misinformation crisis right now.

it’s got me thinking:

Do people even bother getting the full story anymore?

i mean,
how can we when one clip and a chorus of ‘me too’s‘ is all it takes to form an opinion?
google should be everyone’s bff,
just like it’s mine.

case in point: tyrese went off on joe biden and kamala harris for signing a hate bill,
but only for the asian community.

keith boykin swooped in to add to the discussion…

i usually keep it lowkey but today?
i’m claiming my happiness.
for years,
i felt like an outsider looking in,
surrounded by my straight peers/associates,
always questioning where i stood.
picking up pom poms to cheer many of them on but when it came to me,
i barely got the same energy that i needed.
i won’t lie but it always hurt my feelings because it made me feel used.
i’ve come to learn…
