As long as you’ll all have me <3

Hokes!

Just keep being yourselves :) You guys keep this place and each other from going to the grays, literally and figuratively. Knowing everyone is doing well is enough for now <3

Things are better now. I was homeless for a little around the time my messages slowed/stopped. Took a while to get a new place but by then, the holidays were happening and I was preparing to start college again. Combined with family drama and being depressed on and off, I was completely drained. I feel like I almost…

Sister. Woman. Negress. My pronoun is She. My past is Pink Oil Mosturizer, my present is Queen Sugar, my future is round trip ticket to Boule. I will see you at the cookout and I will vouch for the potato salad because I will make it myself.

Only good as a deli meat, or ground up and put in a burger.

Turkey is chicken’s dry ass big brother. It’s like a chicken breast sitting out in the sun for three days, but everywhere.

... Am I wrong for enjoying this?

Jan saying lying that her ass “didn’t notice that she was Black” is bullshit because she led in her first post with “political correctness.” A white person only references ‘political correctness’ (an already bullshit term—but that’s a rant for another day) when they’re attempting to sugarcoat the white privilege in…

Agreed. Season 2 should’ve been here by now.

I’m supposed to believe Bernie was sacrificing and fighting the good fight or all six black people in Vermont?
