it doesn’t really smell like shit lol! just like, meat?? we boil ours so its like, worse. When you cook them frfr it shouldn’t smell bad, that means you didn’t clean em right lol

I’m only just entering the foray of African dishes (like in the last two years) since two of my line sisters are Liberian and Nigerian lol. I grew up around only Black Americans so all this is new! I’ve had like 5 different types of Jollof Rice and fufu lol. One of my Kenyan friends was telling me about Kenyan…

I hope this was worth it, the police are on their way.

I always took it to mean that people assume brown cows make...chocolate milk??? who knows lol. my other favorite nonsensical one is “Oh i got your _____” in response to practically anything! “But it’s my shirt!” “oh, I got your shirt!” as a child this confused the hell outta me and it still does lmao

“You must don’t think a brown cow could give white milk” - #1 on my granny’s “yo ass is mine” list

I don’t have any white friends who want to say the n-word, I actually have very few, in general. Saving this for random internet trolls though, particularly that last paragraph lol

I’ve been to DC twice since it opened and I haven’t been able to snag tickets. The last time I was there someone hit me up about going the I flew in but my flight was for 3 and the tix were for 8 am. Still sad about it

I’m very personally offended you compared his horse face to that of my bae, Adam Driver. He doesn’t deserve that.

I’m so glad I’m not tenderheaded. I thank god every day!

Yes. I, a millennial, have a living room overflowing with houseplants and more recently many many many succulents (they’re so cute and easy to take care of and I love them) This isn’t really for any reason besides the fact that I grew up in a house positively covered in house plants. my grandmother kept (keeps?) my…

! I actually live with all WOC ( and I moved off campus after my first year lol) it’s just that my colleges “frat row” is literally on the Main Street connect the campus so it’s kinda impossible to get around :/ the level of obnoxious kinda tampers down after the first couple weeks of school. Right now all the white…

I know! I’m the first person in my family to attend a PWI (3 generations before at one particular HBCU) and my mom doesn’t let me forget it. My school’s financial package was something I couldn’t pass up though. It’s definitely not all bad tho! The Black community up here is tight and expansive, so I’ve found my…

classes start on tuesday, Frat row has already moved in. Maneuvering past day-drunk white frat boys is exhaustingggg. I don’t pay thousands of dollars each semester to be subjected to this.

I saw the Jez article on this and made the mistake of reading the comments (I keep thinking the conditional allyship and general ‘woe as me’ complex will tamper down) and it was a shitshow of “wahhhh she said ALL! THIS IS HOW YOU CREATE NAZI’S wahhhh”. I could feel my blood pressure raising.

oh! Before reading your comment I’d just posted about finding my half brother through Facebook! It was basically this same situation just reversed.

funny story about this: like two years ago, Facebook recommended I friend a guy about 15 years older than me, no mutual friends. Clicked on the profile and he looked vaguely like the men on my dad’s side of the family, same last name. So I message him, see if he’s a long lost cousin or something. He’s my brother. That…

please do this all the time. I love clapbacks. Truly a messy bitch who lives for drama.

You’re right :/ I do feel like both Issa and Lawrence just read situations horribly, which can also be seen when Lawrence leaves Tashas fams BBQ (or rather, accepts the invite in the first place) I think it has a lot to do with the fact that they’ve only had read each other’s romantic queues for the last 5 years?…

you a real one!! idk how to use kinja but if i knew how to post gifs!!! *goes to see if he’s single*

Issa reminding Daniel, the guy who literally came and got her off the side of the road that they just fuckin and nothing else? smh. I legit face palmed when it happened. So disappointed because anybody with even a little tact could see Daniel was lying through his teeth about seeing other people.
