Is joe Biden doing a better job than Obama?

No.

Nobody likes Joe Biden, even the people who voted for him.

The entire government is doing a shit job if we're being real.

how can u not love me????

[andrewarhol]

a concept: me, in bed with many blankets, the windows are frosted but i am toasty, my homework complete and i fully understand the material

[yuyuuyuyuu-deactivated20230726]

what do you mean i didn’t reach out i literally thought about you

[dulciscocos]

I really am so useless

[dulciscocos]

Loving you.

[penantics]

time after time

From time to time,

I can still feel your hands

Grappling around my neck.

As you hold me down and assert

Your dominance,

You whisper softly into my ear,

“Baby.”

This is no way to treat the girl you call baby.

I whimper out a muffled

“No”

And you submerge my being into

Your sheets like cold

Crashing waves,

Drowning out my cries and pleas

As

You leave me gasping for air

While you fornicate my limp, lifeless body.

From time to time,

I can still feel your hand

Thrashing against my cheek.

As you call me a whore,

You remind me of how soft my cheek is.

If my cheek is so soft

Why don’t you adorn it?

Tears fall down my face

Like raindrops

And you clear the salty rain with the whole

Of your palm,

Subtlety reminding me that I am

Your lover

But with a place.

From time to time

I can still feel the bruises you left my heart.

They manifest as ghosts

visiting me at night,

Hiding under my bed

As they wait for slumber’s arrival

So that they may haunt me.

They are a constant reminder of you

And how you used to tell me

No one would ever love me the way you did.

From to time,

I still feel your presence

Except this time,

I feel you fading away,

With your grip loosening from

around my neck,

Your hands leaving my cheek

And the bruises turned ghosts

Finally giving me the bed peace

I need.

Once upon you told me that no one would ever love me

The way you did

And you were right.

Someone will love me

But much better than you.

[dulciscocos]

Im back i guess. To scream to the void

[lovelysuggestion]

if the person i was 5 years ago saw the person i am today, they would cry with joy and relief of what they were going to become and accomplish. and that (not anyone else’s approval) is what makes all the hard work worth it.

[dulciscocos]

Can you post old boy asshole

[katblaque]

I bet you're a white cock addict as well aren't you xD

I wouldn’t say I’m an addict because that’s really problematic language and I don’t support that. 

I would say I’m a white cock ally. 

[dulciscocos]

But why though? White men are the biggest threat to Black people, Black women and the LGBTQ black community. I thought you were pro-Black

Do you think the Rhianna diaphragm tattoo was more influential to women in this current decade? than the Eve cleavage paw prints in the 90’s??

That’s a good question.

I think it is.

[sainttpablo-deactivated20200118]

Aaliyah was blamed, for those of us who were kids in the 90’s and grew up on the rnb teen trinity of Aaliyah, Brandy and Monica we didn’t know or understand what was happening back then I was 4 or 5

So when I learned 2 years back that people blamed Aaliyah for the marriage and called her fast and said all these things about her and how she was almost blacklisted by the industry back then but career was saved when she teamed up with Missy Elliott

it was surprising because it seemed that she was always loved but then again not that surprising.

[saturnineaqua]

Yup

[elfyourmother]

I was a teenager during those years and I can 100% corroborate that because I saw it in real time. she was very much treated as the “bad girl” in comparison with Monica and Brandy and she totally bore the brunt of the blowback when that “marriage” became widely known. there was a dark cloud over her. nobody wanted to work with her on that second album.

and real talk one of the reasons younger ppl don’t know about it is that a lot of that shit was swept under the rug when she died. some of the very same people who were canonizing her at her death were shitting on her calling and treating her like all kinds of lying ho when she was alive. ppl got collective amnesia.

[ai-yo]

That is really fucked I can imagine people pitting them against each other because Brandy was on Moesha and seen as wholesome maybe and Aaliyah was “acting grown”

I can kind of understand why her mum tried to say the woman in the documentary was lying and doesn’t want her daughter’s name tarnished since she had to witness her daughter being treated like that

[elfyourmother]

Brandy was definitely seen as more wholesome, yeah. Remember she also had the Cinderella tv movie. She was very much a “sweetheart” whereas Aaliyah was marketed to be rawer and more ~urban~ (the whole around the way, Tommy Girl image). Brandy was much more acceptable. I remember at least one girl in HS who said her parents didn’t allow her to listen to Aaliyah until Anastasia came out and she had that song on the soundtrack.

Aaliyah didn’t start to come back from that shit until after it was clear she had severed her ties w R Kelly (again nobody put these demands on him even tho he was the grown ass adult in the equation and the damn predator, his career didn’t suffer at all). It was like she had a scarlet letter in a lot of ways. No one believed that she was a victim in all this. And it took a while. My memory is fuzzy but Anastasia was the big turning point for her imo when things began to turn around.

But even when she died things were not entirely hunky dory for her. Her transition into film was very shaky—Romeo Must Die was considered a critical flop and a lot of people don’t know or realize that Queen of the Damned only got a theatrical release because she died. That whole movie was basically Warner Bros just frantically trying to shit out a movie real quick before the rights reverted back to Anne Rice (I wanna say principal photography started like a month before they would have). And WB fully intended on quietly shuffling it off to Direct to Video hell until she died so suddenly and they realized they could capitalize on the tragedy of a young starlet gone before her time and her fans grief.

The world really did baby girl wrong and all the hypocritical wailing and rending of garments that happened after she died was just fucked up and ugly to anyone paying attention at the time. All this history was covered up imo bc ppl knew they did her wrong and they were guilty af.
