I want Black Queer and Trans people to be free and unbothered.
18. What is something that you yearn for?

I just watched the Ms. Pat Episode of the Breakfast club. I am, again, just so curious on why Jess Hilarious is always looking for sympathy for her transphobic comments.

This isn’t the worst thing. But, I am growing tired of “How can I support you?”

I get that it is well-meaning. But, I also feel like “damn! I gotta go through shit and organize my own care w/ my friends when I’m here for support.”

I’d much rather people say, “I can offer this…is that helpful?”

Send your favorite PhD student some love. It’s the end of the semester and I got two 20-page papers to write with not enough hours in the day to do it lmao.

Yes!!
As a gay man, do you like receiving flowers?

Yes, of course. In his room to the Luther vinyl spinning. Always a good time.

Black queer men have to drop the gender norms and submit to being loved by any means necessary.
To all my Black Queer men on here, have you ever slow danced with another man?

And if so, do you remember when and why?

I also don’t see what’s wrong with using one’s identity asa strength. If I know that your target audience is Black consumers, and I am your target audience, why wouldn’t I say that I have insider knowledge that can help me in this role.
Nobody walks into an interview begging, “Hire me because I’m Black.” We walk in saying, hire me, I’m qualified. Hire me, my degree cost the same as everyone else’s. Hire me, I earned this and I need a job just like anyone else.

Hire me, don’t discriminate against me.
Hire me, respect me in my role.

I’m not into basketball. But this logo shift is jarring. Who approved this and when?

Before. After.

I just switched my grandparents over from androids to iPhone.

The first thing my nana says is… “how do I track his location?” 😂😂

I know we're in a good mood today, but...Tamir Rice should still be here. It's been 10 years and he should be 22 now. RIP to the kid.
