I made sure to be home to watch the match last night. I was there for Serena. Last year she was literally fighting for her life this year she’s doing the thing. She got choked up talking about it, I felt for her. She’s clawing her way back to the top after so many complications after the birth of her child.  She’s an…

We saw the trailer for The Nun when we went to see The Meg.  There is no way I will be seeing this movie it was scary enough seeing the trailer.  

I am a librarian so many of the kids were very upset about Professor Snape dying. He was beloved across the generations.

One of my g-moms was a nurse. The hospital where she worked was down the street from a college. The things she saw. One of the doctors that she worked with eventually started doing under the table abortions since he saw young women ripped to shreds trying to induce an abortion. He would provide them with prescriptions…

If you’ve read any type of books on siblings you’d see that there is so much difference in the treatment of the eldest or youngest.  By the time the last kid comes around many parents are tired.  I think in Mr. Bennett’s case Lydia was his final chance at a boy and since she wasn’t he checked out right there.  

This is happening because people do not vote. Only 58% of eligible voters showed up. I’m not blaming people who could not vote because they were actively prevented from doing so since this was the goal of the Republicans since they gutted the Voting Rights Act was to prevent certain people from voting. However, 52% of…

I love that white puffy coat it looks cute and warm. However, I will not be purchasing said coat unless it comes in black because it will look dingy as hell fast in these here New York winters.  

Exactly. This is why brown people walking, talking, smoking, sleeping, making barbecue, selling water is a problem for many of them.  

Respectability is about policing the black community and making what we do acceptable to white folks, except that stage whisper nothing we do will ever be respectable enough for some of them. Case in point the first actually Black President of these here United States. Devoted family man, good father, good son in law,…

It’s just about what they’re worth.  

The fact that Serena has to pull herself up from the bottom of the rankings because she had a baby is very sexist because this is a situation that no man will ever have to confront. Men do not lose their standings in rank when they become fathers. Serena is doing the work to prove that having a child should not be a…

When my grandmother passed away in Florida, my uncle who lived with her couldn’t speak, he just couldn’t. My mom gave a lovely eulogy where she was able to talk about her stepmom’s wonderful heart and loving spirit and she asked for me to read a poem. I don’t remember much about that day it was really difficult but…

I don’t like mayonnaise so I make garlic roasted potatoes or herb roasted potatoes.  I don’t call it potatoe salad it’s called herb roasted or garlic roasted potatoes it is lovely and not potatoe salad.  If it’s not potatoe salad call it by it’s correct name, nobody will be offended because they know what they are…

They had to be at MCCain’s funeral today. With the travel and security I am quite sure that it would have been very stressful to work it out for them to attend especially since McCain asked Obama to deliver a eulogy before he passed.

I did nothing yesterday but watch the funeral on streaming at work.  It was still going on when I left at 5:30.  I got home to watch Venus vs. Serena.  I did not check to see if the funeral was still going on.  

She’s married to some high up pastor or another and she’s a pastor or something else as well.  

It’s 11:16 people are not even seated yet.  I hope people get to go get something to eat in between because nobody has started speaking yet.  

Yup. I would not invite anybody if I wasn’t sure they would behave, if anything happens and then they’d be showing their entire ass at any event. There are those relatives and people you know that you just don’t invite places it’s a whole entire NO!  Palin and her entire trash family are those types of people.  

Bill is invited I’m really happy about that. I remember for one of his birthdays she sang for him and he got to put his head on her magnificent boobs. He looked like he would have died a happy man right there. I’m sure she smelled like Beautiful or Tresor (my two favorite g-moms go to smell nice).

I hope the white people invited to this funeral are prepared for black church.
