Yes and it should not. I was wholly out of pocket for a bit. I am gonna stay off this app for awhile. NOT bcuz I hate it. Not bcuz I got spanked. It’s okay to get and take licks. I’m trying to learn some stuff. I have been here for awhile trying to learn and I inserted myself outta my lane.

Even promising you mean well does not make you immune to admonition. I screwed up tonight. I don’t have a lane, and weaved into someone else’s. Folks, I maybe, probably love you. I might not do this SM anymore because I’m personally bad at it. I should’ve shut my mouth.

You’re not wrong. The thing that makes me say some of this dumb shit, that makes me look very stupid online, is that I don’t f/w any white ppl anymore irl unless I get paid to. I’m going crazy. Rob, you’re right. I was laying low and just listening and then I had beer

I misspoke. It’s been an over 30 years struggle. To not claim whiteness because I know it’s a fake construct. To also claim I’m that fake construct… I’m confined by ppl who look like me. I’m not sure how to break free of this. Perhaps it can’t happen. Perhaps it can’t. I acknowledge

Yes. We have a spectrum too… but yes. I used to”yt” a lot for a while bcuz I don’t friend Caucasian folks for the last 12ish years unless I can vet. But yes. All forms of mayo/pale/egg-snowball emoji apply

I think this man is a helper. Like appealing to pale ppl isn’t my actual jam, ( yes I know my skin color, but I vet and don’t fuck w/many I might have have pre- THIS)Mr. Rogers said “ look for the helpers “. I got $13 cash and am $24 in the hole. YOU might be able to.

I’m watching Michelle Obama talk to her husband and brother… whew. I grew up in a cult. But the Mr.s answers has made me see that how I was raised and my subsequent rejection of the weak males( Hegsethtypes) early did not save me as a young man, but eventually it did help me become a better person

Bruh, the B side was the JAM. I’ll never understand how CCR was so funky and swampy and soulful and the Fogerty turns out to be the supporter of uptight whiteys. We talk about this on the reg in New Orleans

Ok… I’m reposting this for a reason. Guy is right, basically. But I did this bcuz my wife is Hungarian. Became a full citizen in time for us to to Algiers point to vote early for KH. We went as a family, kid in tow. ( we got official married there ). We can do this, y’all. We can. We just have to!

Amen. Done correctly. You go to Baptist church when you was in New Orleans?( maybe not cuz they can be bigoted ),but beeeeyby that’s looking better than what we put at the restaurant this menu and I was just on the team to make “Black church Mac and cheese”. You win. Imagine bow GIF

Octavia E. Butler, 1998:
From EARTHSEED: THE BOOKS OF THE LIVING

Choose your leaders

with wisdom and forethought.

To be led by a coward

is to be controlled

by all that the coward fears.
To be led by a fool


is to be led

by the opportunists

who control the fool.

To be led by a thief

is to offer up

your most precious treasures

to be stolen.
To be led by a liar


is to ask

to be told lies.

To be led by a tyrant

is to sell yourself

and those you love

into slavery.

I don’t have threads anymore bcuz eff Zuckerberg. But it was the one place I could talk shop with chefs. I felt like I’d nearly built community with other ppl in my business. I like Bluesky a lot more, but I miss that.

this is my nephew's homework and i'm gonna cry
Elementary school homework with the alphabet at the top. The question says: imagine you are a wizard with a magic wand. What kind of spells would you cast? What magical things would you do?

A child's handwritten answer: If I was a wizard I would make life easy. because there will be no wars and no crimenals. I will disapear every bad guy in the world so no one will get hurt.

There is a drawing of a blue sky, a yellow sun, a black wizard with a wand in his hand, and a crowd of people. There's a caption bubble with the wizard saying no wars, and a caption bubble over the crowd that says everybody cheers

How are you coping with all this mess? Me? I’m relieved daily by cute animal and kid posts, stuff by the rev. Soloman from Missouri, and Trevor Noah podcasts. Those Lego vids from Iran are popping too, but I shouldn’t say that

Bruce Springsteen is doing too much. But it’s cute he is trying something. I’m not listening to it, but I think he means well… and that’s not nothing. Go grandpa! It’s better you close out like this. I’m not harshing on him. 10th avenue freeze out is a bop.

A fancy grilled cheese sandwich is one of our appetizers this week and I argued that have a mustard and beer cheddar, a port wine cheddar and that the lil bit of mid grade mozzarella we have would serve well as the 3rd cuz. He said” no that cheese has a pull ( meaning it melts and is stringy) 1/2

When I see in tv or movies ppl say “no doctors!” I think this is what they mean. My sous chef is a good person but he got an infection and had to take off a day. St Thomas center got him right. Only 4 ppl make our kitchen run. Anyone of us… . It’s chaos

If you live in New Orleans, and you don’t have Black neighbors…. My lil guy spent the early afternoon with a mixed lil lady, then went to bday party for our lil amazing neighbor boy and the span of time was like 9 hours. He doesn’t need yt friends. He has play cousins. ❤️ this place.. can’t leave.

Of all the spiritual music I have enjoyed and been uplifted by, from Utah Phillips, to Sister Rosetta Tharpe, to the B.B and C.C. to Kirk Franklin to Sweet Honey in the Rock- I still come back over and over to Sam Cooke singing “Change is Gonna Come”.

Last weekend I took the kindergartener over to bayou St. John to practice fishing. Nice lil 100 minutes. I stepped in accidentally to a hole which soaked my left kitchen shoe in swamp water essentially. I left said shoe to dry, deeply scrubbed my foot, but I gotta put that shoe back on for work😭

I have followed this account for a while. She’s a true one even though I have no idea what prompts her to speak when agitated bcuz New York is far from New Orleans…. That - Any accounts speaking truth to power… I’m old now. I’m just learning from the internet

I got home like 15 minutes ago and did not watch the show as I never do bcuz I work during it nearly every year. I’m happy for the Sinners wins bc it was the best movie I saw this season. But Delroy Lindo delivered yet again a command performance. Pervert yts aren’t a stretch performance.

Just me, personally, I didn’t think OBAA was good. Teyana Taylor was very good in her role, but putting her character in that position was a choice. A bad choice. It felt gross and not funny. The intention was muddled by that choice. I fed Sean Penn a few years ago- he was an asshole.
