Learning Guy Fieri is actually an excellent human being is what taught me to cool it a little on the cringe culture pile-ons. Like, this is a man who performs gay weddings, donates pretzel machines to schools for their fundraisers, gives a shitload of money to restaurant workers, and apparently lives on a ranch with 400 goats and a flock of peacocks. So who cares if he has wild spiky hair and draws flames on everything? He’s a good egg, and if making crazy hamburgers and shopping at hot topic makes him happy, then let him be happy! And if other people like “cringey” things, so what? Are they kind? Are they caring? Do they have several hundred goats? That’s what matters!

Hell hath no fury like a teenager scorned...

It’s a long story, spans years of time. ~~~Cue hazy flashback to 1997/8~~~

Growing up, my family ran a business dealing with water and wastewater pumps. By the time I was in high school, I worked for them outside of school as needed, and I’d grown up around the industry. At the time of this story I was 16, maybe 17. I got a few funny looks out in the field sometimes, but normally wasn’t a problem, this time, it was.

Many sales they make do are bids. You go to the builders exchange, which is basically a library for plans and blueprints. You pull the plans, get to the part applicable to you, and see what they want or need. Then you submit a price you think will win you the job.

I feel confident that no matter what happens on the geopolitical scene, up until the day I die harry styles will do the same so-so fashion photo shoot every few months where he wears skirts, and people online will say “it’s great that he’s breaking down standards of masculinity,” and then a second group of people online will say, “it’s unfair that he’s appropriating and profiting from gender nonconformity” and then a third group of people online will say,” why are we making rules about who is or isn’t allowed to be gender nonconforming.” this will keep happening even when new york city is completely underwater and all the clean drinking water supplies are privatized and guarded by corporate paramilitary police squads, I feel certain

Humor has gotten so abstract at this point that at first I thought this was an actual meme made by like, internet jokesters, not a literal paid advertisement.

Cudjo Lewis, the last surviving captive of the last slave ship to bring Africans to the U.S.

It’s so significant too that this narrative was collected by Zora Neale Hurston, one of the greatest authors and anthropologists of her time. She was shunned by the “gatekeepers” of both of these professions, largely because of her Blackness, her womanhood, and her uncompromising commitment to honoring and showcasing both in her works. She died penniless and alone in a state-run institution in 1960. All of her works had gone out of publication by then. It took more than a decade before she was rediscovered. A young author by the name of Alice Walker had come across her work and was deeply inspired by it. “In 1973, after an exhaustive search, Walker came across Hurston’s unmarked grave in Ft. Pierce, Fla. She purchased a headstone for Hurston’s tomb and had it inscribed “A Genius of the South.“”

It is through Zora Neale Hurston’s pioneering sacrifice, and the acceptance of that inheritance by Alice Walker that we have found this missing piece of our history. Without the courageous and unfailing work of Black women, we wouldn’t have Cudjo Lewis’s story. We are slowly regaining a narrative that’s been hidden from us, one that continues to be lied about. Trust Black women to lead the way.

And so y'all dont have to sift through layers of nested articles to find the name of the book, almost like people still dont respect this amazing woman’s work,

it’s called Barracoon.

She spent 3 months interviewing Lewis, paying him in peaches, ham, watermelon, and insect powder.

Barracoon is a testament to Hurston’s dedication and love for her people and their stories.
