My box of wigs came and now I am giving the group chat a fashion show
Out of all of them, this is my favorite. It's 30 inches of NIGGA DON'T TOUCH ME
But I really like this one too
I am very dramatic. I like a lot of drama. The ones I didn't like have already been claimed, and I am mailing them off to their new owner this weekend
Because my own hair is big/thick, it can sometimes be hard to find wigs that fit and lay the way I want them to. But I am not afraid to experiment, and I fucking love wigs. They are so much fun.
And like my boo @55mmbae said, you can be a new bitch every day
This one is not so dramatic, but I have considered cutting my hair like this. I am too much of a punk to go through with it so, this wig satisfies that craving

This morning, @TheRoot email box is full of people calling us the real racists while also saying shit like WHITE POWER and calling us niggers.
Good morning. How is your Thursday so far?
But seriously, The Root is a Black online media site. We report and discuss topics from a Black perspective.
If you are uninterested in that, there are plenty of other "legacy" news sites that only talk about things from the white point of view. You can go read them.
Why do y'all get a battery in your back and want to come and argue with us about our coverage?
There are a lot of boomers and cuspers taking issue with the fact I said Gen X is the first generation to have existed in both the analog and digital world.
So hey guys. I have mirrors in my house. Like all over my house. I love looking at myself in mirrors. And because of that, I know I'm fat. You aren't breaking any new ground using that as an insult, just FYI. But if it makes you feel better, have at it I guess.
The way my self esteem is set up, the only opinion on my looks that truly matters to me is my own.
If you have watched me any amount of time here, you already know I have no shortage of confidence.
As a Black woman on Twitter who encounters this multiple times a day every single day 365 days a year, I want to show you guys something. Thread:
I saw Gen X trending, and when I clicked the trend, it was all about Fox News calling on us to "cancel" "cancel culture." I thought it was funny because the boomers tried to cancel everything we liked as teens, and so I tweeted this:
For the most part, people got it, agreed, laughed, RT etc Of course, there were some who either willfully or ignorantly misunderstood my point. Those (mostly white) people didn't even try to disagree in a reasonable way. They immediately began calling me names, disparaging me etc
