i want to give up smoking

I’ve had beef with God for a minute.

okay,
maybe more than a minute.
like,
a solid two-year feud.

blame it on what the church villagers were telling me:

“God is testing you.”
“God gives you what you can handle.”
“God’s just seeing if you’re worthy of a breakthrough.”

sure,
it sounds poetic,
but it felt like spiritual gaslighting.

Why would a loving God dish out trauma like it’s a rite of passage?
Why the hoops?
Why the pain?

if i’ve already proven myself,
why keep testing me?

it felt like cosmic abuse with only my name on it.
i was ready to give up on God because i’ve seen tired.
i’ve been stuck in this loop,
playing by the rules,
yet running in circles.
this past sunday,
sarah jakes-roberts dropped a gem in her sermon that hit me like a plot twist…

is beef becoming too well done for our taste?

we are in one of the hardest times in our lives.
from our cities being overrun with crime,
the cost of living being unbearable,
and dating being an absolute shit show,
we are all holding on by a tiny thread.
we are one “something” away from losing our minds.
social media was supposed to be an escape but it’s been highlighting that

melyssa ford gets out of pocket; cam’ron puts her in the corner pocket

better times?
when i write entries,
i give my opinion but i try to stay objective.
some things i’ll throw “alleged” around while giving my opinion.
remember when i wrote about ( x mase and cam ) the other day?
it was about them running a train on a vixen from a ho house.
i didn’t even peep the alleged “she might have been under-aged” angle.
that was the furthest thing from my mind.

they never mentioned ages so i went on what the story entailed.
the facts of how the story was being presented and what i was seeing on socials.
i’m confused how melyssa ford came to this conclusion:

cause you watched a show about sex trafficking????
like,
what?
weird assumption incoming.
so of course cam went tf on her on IG live

randy orton is a fine white baller wwe wolf.

they killed his grandparents and made him watch after

when i think of beef,
i always think of the biggie song on “life after death“.

 

folks don’t know what true beef is.
it’s not shading or throwing cups and plates across restaurants on reality shows with full security.
real beef always ends in violence as in what happened to biggie.
beef is what they did to honeykomb brazy’s grandparents a few days ago.
this story has haunted me since i first saw it.
they killed his grandparents,
torched their home,
and allegedly made him watch the aftermath via facetime… Continue reading “they killed his grandparents and made him watch after”

the big unhappy, but we need to stand with each other, family that is the black community

if it came out that george floyd was gay,
had a gay porn past,
and was at the gay club every weekend faithfully:

Would the straight black community be marching and protesting for his death?

would they have burned down whole cities for police brutality?
i can font without a doubt that i couldn’t see it.
call me pessimistic,
but there are layers within the black community that aren’t being confronted.
it’s a similar action to how it is in some of our families.
“don’t talk about it and it’ll go away“.
big mama and nem will fight to get our crackhead cousin clean,
but don’t want to acknowledge they’re on crack at the dinner table.

“I don’t want to hear about your cousin Jean.
Just give him the money and I’ll continue to pray he gets his life together.”

have we discussed how toxic black christianity can be…?
this current climate blew the lid of the segregation within the black community.
folks want to sit down at the cookout table and talk about the issues,
but there are starting to be a few whispers now that things are dying down.
a foxholer sent me these two videos from black gays voicing their concerns…
