You don’t get to Denzel’s age living outside the parole system because you go HAM on white women at work. She would need to show me tape.
Denzel Washington was born in 1954. Show me the tape, American Girlboss.
Black men born in 1954 are more likely to have spent 30 silent years at work making sure to never take their hands out their pockets than they are to have done this. Not impossible but show me the tape.

If you want to see my lose my ish, drop urgent deadlines into my workflow. I will pay triple to pull the plug every damn time. That's probably not a great way to conduct business but here I am, a flawed subject.
I do this thing where I forecast a month out, a quarter out, a year out. I know what my deadlines are. And then people will pop up with some nonsense about how you need to scan these EIGHT THINGS RIGHT NOW OR A CAT DIES and I will just get up and walk out before I entertain it.
Yasmin convinced me to read this. She is right. It is funny. And not a total slam as replies suggest. The bread and futter (fake butter) and cocktails sound great. But if you crack a beet with a hammer at my table, I get to laugh.
When people talk about being emotional over getting a vaccine, I am so confused. Do people just more feelings than I do? What’s all this emotional turmoil?
I always imagine these people in their modern kitchens weeping about a change in their paper towels’ perforation and then moving seamlessly to crying about having their life saved. Like it’s all on one emotional plane.
I’ve decided to block everyone who sort of plowed through the meaning here.
energy, frequency, vibe. Are all rich people hippies or does something about celebrity require this language?
Who is the expert on this? Maybe someone in cultural anthropology? Someone who studies the language of…the new California ideology as celebrity cultish? I don’t know what to call it but they would know.
When that level of two subculture icons from RIP-art loving cultures merge it creates a supernova event that creates a new cultural geography with attendant changes to geopolitics.
The spray painted El Caminos alone would have destabilized the Americas.
Passive aggression is how you learn to enact the domination of structural whiteness in your everyday life. It becomes the religion, the market, the rituals - everything.
