In this TMZ article, they mention:

“Wendy was tight with Kamala Harris during the former VP’s run for president … the two are members of the same sorority, Alpha Kappa Alpha.”

TMZ implying some kind of connection seems like libel to me.

Having elitist family members who don’t want you doing better than them is so exhausting.

You’ll get your driver license and they’ll be mad even when they’ve had theirs for 5 years.

Ghetto or justified?

When I was working for $15 an hour as an assistant I used to go to the Sephora a few blocks away from my job and spray myself with their fragrances because the only thing I could afford was a $5 body splashed from the beauty supply store that only lasted a few mins.

Such is the life of a Black professional.

😮‍💨

Jenn Q. @jennqueen.bsky.social · 2d

That sinking feeling of panic after you’ve messed something up, when you’re the only Black woman in the room, hits different.

Survival mode kicks in.

You feel the intense urge to hid and scream because you know that you won’t get grace 99 things done right but that 1 mess up will define you.

Yup. Those men who dated one Black woman and got hurt now as adults it’s “all Black women” are this and that so they can date their “preference.”

Jenn Q. @jennqueen.bsky.social · 3d

Someone will have one bad experience with a Black person and decide every Black person is the same. That’s how you know they never saw us as individuals in the first place.

Press on nails are about to start costing the same as salon nails running us right back to the salons we were trying to escape from. Smh. 🤦‍♀️

Bought 60 eggs for $10 from the farmers market.

While in store the eggs are $5 for a dozen. Support local farmers.

My favorite thing about being black is just looking at another black person and nothing has to be said because everything was said in the eye contact.

I am obsessed with Olandria. I didn’t watch all of LI this season due to the racism but that girl that girl. Love her down.

🫶🏾 I needed the permission thanks. I don’t usually drink but sometimes I think damn am I an alcoholic if I want wine at 11 AM.

It might be too early but I need some wine and a nice charcuterie spread so I can tune out all the noise.

I love Jimmy Kimmel, especially when I watched him tear for Regina King learning shed lost her son.

But it’s kind of interesting how we barely heard a peep out of folks when Joy Reid and other minoritized women lost their show.

My edges come all the way down to my eyebrows on both sides of my forehead, but trying to figure out how to lay a wig without losing my natural hairline. A real struggle.

I’m not going to let anyone hijack my frequency.

It’s like people are obsessed with anger, chaos and victimhood and it’s exhausted to be involved with the gaslighting.

They mentioned they may possibly work on adding that feature so figured I’d ask.
