Some soulless human cut down dozens of trees in downtown Los Angeles overnight, and no one saw a thing… www.instagram.com/reel/DIrWzjA...

"Sinners" also reinforced a cardinal Black rule: Once you step outside, you're out. You're not gonna be running back and forth. Choose wisely.

Living inside a Rumi poem.

I’m all for spending as little as possible for ever and ever to avoid lining the pockets of any big ol’ corporation. We don’t even need it. We were born fly. I was.

“Show less like this”

every connection is energy based. you don’t just meet people. you mirror them. if you want better, become better. to welcome something new, something powerful, you have to evolve. become the sun. shed the past, and let your light make room.

Transparency — I do take them sometimes, but looking at selfies makes me uncomfortable. Sometimes, I block them. I’m inner-exploring the why… I believe it’s the ruminating ticker/commentary on the essence of who we were before social media in my head.

My bestfriendtwin asked me what I think about God while we were up watching Jurassic Park late last night… Today I read, nearly word-for-word, my exact explanation in “Parable of the Sower”, from Lauren. (Entry: Saturday, August 17, 2004) We’re out here. I love that for us. 🛸

Find an empty airport gate, move your body. Try 10 in a row without losing balance…

Listen, my people… Go. See. Sinners. Do yourself a solid and go during a matinee, a showing with few people, so you can catch every. f’ing. thing. And do not leave until that screen goes completely silent and black. #SINNERS

Keep the homes in the family.

Experience transcendence. Above systems. All of them.

On twitter, before the the algorithm became a plant — and before gender & culture & diaspora wars had everyone arguing non-stop — remember when protestors from Hong Kong were sharing tips with Black people in the U.S. about how to fight riot police & extinguish tear gas canisters & such in 2020?

I used to get restless when my dad dragged me around to every shop with him as a kid. Now, it’s all jewels. Recipes. #Baltimore

I love OG auto mechanics…

If nobody told ya…

The word cannot be repurposed. The nervous system stores all. A rope. A tree. A “picnic”. That word. An insidious spell. Epigenetic hypnosis.

I have been an abolitionist my entire life. I mean from third grade. Literally putting my body between my people & oppressives. Rubber bullets. Glass in eyes. Visiting incarcerated black panthers. Plus some. Born with fire. They didn’t learn. I have passed that torch. Do the work. I’m gardening.

I wrote a screenplay for RZA last year… full mind-blowing circle from my 36 chambers cassette tape in college… And then someone surprised me with VIP tickets to see WuTang the final chapter in June. You have to speak to me in either PhD or Wu. No in between. Shimmy shimmy yaaaaa…

Evolve. Never stop.

Have relationships that make you think fondly on that person if it ends. Truly see each other, even if you didn’t see eye to eye. I’m the BEST of friends with ex-hubs & his wife. I love both of them, dearly. We even spent a couple Christmases together. We all just want the best for one another. 🫶🏽
