This Girl Here

Here I am being black. And a woman, And especially--thankfully-- a black woman. And somewhere in here I'm still obsessed with those big-haired French dancing dudes. And food lol. Duh.

So I’m rewatching A Different World and I’m wondering anew why we had to suffer through half a season of Kimberly Reese dating wack-ass useless Ron when we should have had way, way more screen time with Kim and Spencer Boyer’s fine ass (despite that horrific wig). I love him for her. If Shaza’s exhausting ass can pop up in random episodes across several seasons, then SURELY we could have afforded a cameo or two of Spencer and his arms in these perfectly fitted short-sleeve tees before season 6.

Also Jenifer Lewis is a national treasure.
