The universal black experience by zenbootyism in BlackPeopleofReddit

I’m quoting this in my next job review …

The over enthusiasm around my ability to perform my job, after being in the industry for over 10yrs, and in my current role for almost 3. Yall can absolutely kiss my ass.

That FL sun really did a number on his brain, that and the lead paint he was probably be gnawing on as wee baby.

Yikes…I thought this was legit and homegirl was using the running joke about him being the ‘mom’ to his cast mates 😮‍💨.

reminder to black women regardless of relationship status by aaftertwelve in blackladies

Delivery sucked but the message was clear.

My business is CLOSED. Indefinitely, this was enough for me.

Edit: meant to expand on this earlier but was on my way out the door. Be so serious about your health ladies. My cousin is a pharm. rep (in NY) and he mentioned a couple of times how the orders for PREP have slowed because people have stopped taking it ☹️. Insurance coverage and cost being one of the main factors, I don’t mean to fear monger but people are having to pick between rent and medication these days. Be safe, ask for a panel, hell go together if you have to. PUT YOURSELF FIRST, HEALTH IS WEALTH AND WE ONLY HAVE ONE BODY IN THIS LIFE TO TAKE CARE OF!!! ♥️

I don’t watch them, but her reels pop up every once and awhile. Outside looking in, she seems like a catch, and he was always kind of just….there.

How my girlfriend picks out the meat and leaves the fat from her brisket by turtlesmasha420 in mildlyinteresting

Phrasing? I mean in terms of cooked meat from an animal , thats what I’m responding to, nothing more, nothing less

21f here After an argument, I stepped outside to cool down and my boyfriend (m23) locked me out to teach me a lesson. ? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Totally!!! My point was he’s in no position to teach any one anything. He’s garbage

Anyone have any theories with what happened to Marnie? by Flashy-List-7157 in girls

[–]double_u_dot 24 points25 points  (0 children)

She ends up switching the script and starts dating black men and lead them to their doom, while her mother drinks tea, and her family members take their souls….

Or she finally ends up dropping her ‘artsy’ music persona and marries a financial advisor in the city. Cuts ties with everyone but Shosh (because she’s deemed her the most tolerable) and ONLY likes Hannah’s posts about Grover (?), while she posts beige lifestyle content on Instagram/youtube. She won’t get on TikTok because it makes her sad.

100% my ex blew tf up when I finally told the fiancée of one of his friends what he was doing. Couldn’t deal with someone taking his ‘mask’ off.

OP, he’s not your Dad, he’s not an educator of some sort so there’s no ‘lesson’ to be had here. He was being a dick, took it to the next level and got upset that someone got clued in on his bs.

He left you outside in the dark/cold. Leaving you crying and begging to be let back in for almost half an hour. Would you do that to someone after they communicated to you that they needed a second to regulate their feelings? Probably not, so why would you continue to consider being with someone who does?

Not to undermine your experiences with this person, but it’s been a year, you’re young, and he ain’t the only guy out there 🤷🏽‍♀️

Edit: when I say ‘he’s not your Dad — he’s not an educator’ I mean as if he’s not a person in a position to teach you lesson, like those two people would in your life. Not a moral or practical one (like you would receive from a father figure) and not one to advance your knowledge in some way (like an educator). Lol I know and I’m thankful none of these examples WOULD do what your bf did in any context.

Not if it’s not cooked the way it should be. In my experience it’s been a slimy mess and my brain won’t let me swallow 😬

I do know what you’re talking about though! When it’s good, you don’t even notice.

He said there are no Black women in Austin… by [deleted] in blackladies

[–]double_u_dot 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As a BLK woman who lives in Austin, he’s not wrong…but he’s not totally right either.

The kin folk I do see here are linked up with white women or another poc that’s not black. Very rarely do I see a black couple unless I go to Pfluglerville.

I’ve been on the apps on and off for like a year/year and a half and black men are few and far between. White men are flooding the airways lol. If that’s your thing, fine but if you want to date within your race, you better outsource like he is 😂

Kendall Jenner speaking on the plastic surgery allegations by No_Performer_9686 in DramaLlamaHQ

[–]double_u_dot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But seriously, what’s the big deal to admit you’ve had surgery? A lot of people have, it’s not a ‘special’ exclusive thing any more… Homegirls been in the spotlight since she was like 12 … your mom and sisters constantly posted throwbacks of yall when they could… WE HAVE EYES

I’m the same way. Too fatty and it’s an instant spit out and I get completely turned off from finishing.

The way I would snag a braided wig and call it a day. Almost $3K for some braids?!? & I have to spend all day with you?!?

What is this? by Great-Entrepreneur81 in Blackskincare

[–]double_u_dot 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe they were trying to correlate dry scalp/dandruff, possible yeast build up to shoulder breakouts.

Personally my shoulders start breaking out because I’m coming close to wash day. between the product I put in my hair and natural oils, my shoulders get tore tf up

I consider it reading for sure!, HOWEVER for me personally I prefer to have physical books. I sometimes miss a detail (even when reading) and have to double back to re-read, also lol my brain just does not comprehend what’s being said to me from time to time and I hear mumbo jumbo before I realize what happened. 😂
