Your parents won't see you grow old. Your partner never knew you as a child, and your children won't remember you young. You are the only person who witnesses every version of yourself. Take care of yourself, value yourself and love yourself. You are your lifelong companion.

Jealousy is not to be taken lightly. Whenever you identify jealousy, know that you’ve just identified a deadly threat. The bible says jealousy is as cruel as the grave.

DON’T ask me for advice 😭! I support divorce, disowning family, blocking mfs mid-conversation, burning bridges with everybody still standing on them & disappearing without explanation !

YOU CAN SEARCH TELEVISION. NOT SHOW TITLES. THE ACTUAL WORDS PEOPLE SAID, ACROSS 4,430,000 BROADCASTS, GOING BACK TO 2009.
archive.org/details/tv
the Internet Archive has been quietly recording news channels for seventeen years and indexing every closed caption. so any sentence ever said on air is now a search box away, with the clip attached.
type a phrase. get the channel, the date, the timestamp, and the thirty seconds around it.
which means you can do things television never intended.
watch a phrase enter the language and count it.
pull up how four networks described the same hour differently.
find the exact broadcast that was on while something happened to you.
I tested it on the things anchors say on autopilot.
"folks" is in 1,087,798 clips. "unprecedented" is in 374,273. "no one saw this coming" is in 767.
"we reached out for comment", in those exact words, appears 485 times in seventeen years of television.
it isn't just American channels. BBC, DW, France 24, Al Jazeera and Russian state television are all in there, all searchable the same way.
free. no account. no paywall.
the strangest part is that this has existed the whole time and almost nobody uses it.

The funniest part about this whole discourse is how ppl are fighting to the DEATH to keep saying nigga, proving they care more about using the word than actually respecting the Black ppl they “loveeeee” so much. Bc if you really loved & respected us how you say you do, the conversation would end there.
It would simply be, "I hear you, I respect you, & I’m not gonna say it anymore."
But instead of showing basic respect, yall throwing a tantrum over a word that was never used against you or yours to use in the first place. Exposing exactly where your heart really is.

What truly impresses me about someone is their spirit and how they treat others when nobody is watching. If you lack integrity/morals nothing else about you will matter to me.

Read banned books written by Black authors. There's a reason they don't want you to read them.
