POV: Watching teen brothers open gifts hits different when you remember being their age. The joy is just as pure from this side 🎄 Also me: Secretly excited to just watch Beyonce tonight in between the actual football game🏈

I am working on radically believing in myself. Some days I got it, some days I’m a little lukewarm in my self-belief

Those profiles that are like "father" "husband" then their whole page is them flirting with women and they try to drop these slimey lines about making friends...but somehow ONLY with women...I know what 🫵🏾 are. We listened, and I have judged. Get out of my sight! 👩🏾‍⚖️

Random thought: it lowkey confuses me what some people call condos bc I think of condos as apartments you purchase while some people also include townhomes but to me townhomes are just that… and not condos lol

Oh my GOD. What a giant. My favorite poem of hers:
Poem (For Nina)
we are all imprisoned in the castle of our skins and some of us have said so be it if I am in jail my castle shall become my rendezvous
my courtyard will bloom with hyacinths and jack-in-the-pulpits
my moat will not restrict me but will be filled with dolphins sitting on lily pads and sea horses ridden by starfish
goldfish will make love
to Black mollies and color my world Black Gold the vines entwining my windows will grow butterflies and yellow jackets will buzz me to sleep the dwarfs imprisoned will not become my clowns for me to scorn but my dolls for me to praise and fuss with and give tea parties to
my gnomes will spin cloth of spider web silkness my wounded chocolate soldiers will sit in evening coolness or stand gloriously at attention during that midnight sun
for I would have no need of day patrol if I am imprisoned in my skin let it be a dark world with a deep bass walking a witch doctor to me for spiritual consultation
let my world be defined by my skin and the skin of my people for we spirit to spirit will embrace this world

Nikki Giovanni was one of the first poets I was introduced to as a child. She wrote one of my favorite books. I studied her in high school and then college and now she’s gone and I can’t believe it
