Sir Mx-A-Thot

I am open to this next season. Goodness. Sweetness. Ease. Abundance. It’s mine.

The way this retrograde is keeping my mouth shut should be studied. Every fiber in my being wants to crash out.

Darling Nikki (she’d chuckle).

I am grieving
Yet glad the aching
Of your body
Has ceased

A candle
Of hearts
Burns for you
At my altar

I will call on you
After while.

Perhaps I’ll etch
“Thug Life”
Into my forearm
An homage’s
Homage.

“Woke up
The next morning,
Nikki wasn’t there”

It’s morning. We made it. #GiveThanks

It’s morning. We made it. #GiveThanks

It’s morning. We made it. #GiveThanks

Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who is determined to turn up the volume and EXPOSE all of the brutal, deadly consequences of abortion bans in America.

They're not "pro-life."
They're pro controlling women's bodies.

My heart breaks for the homeless.

I finished my first semester as a doctoral student.

It’s morning. We made it. #GiveThanks

I got 15mins of typing on my computer before they was back up this time 🫠

Every time I read about banning books, I think of this:

Reading a book with a gay character will not make you gay any more than reading a book about Einstein will make you a genius.
If you're afraid that books might change someone's thinking, you're not afraid of books — you're afraid of thinking.

Half of my assignments this semester I typed on my phone with a teething baby latched and nursing. 😵‍💫

I swear I could be scrolling on my phone for hours. Soon as I sit up to work on the computer here come lil Lazarus rising up to crawl in my lap.

I’m so excited to start using it!

The reason y’all are crashing out over this person is because you’ve made them your whole identity. When they face negativity, you feel attacked and rush to defend them, but it’s really yourself you’re defending. But here’s the truth: you are not them. Their wins, losses, and drama are not yours.

Perfectionism induced procrastination + disability + parenting = feeling like a failure when all I needed was to ask for accommodations & consistent support from the beginning.

I really don’t want an incomplete for this semester. I’m doing my best to push through. I got 48hrs to get so much done. With a one year old that demands so much of my attention, capacity and spoons.

J1 the Deer. I’ll never forget.

You deserve to be around people who choose you over secrets, shame & abuse.

That won’t always happen. So it’s important to always choose yourself.

It’ll be lonely, and isolating. But you won’t have to shrink yourself to eat a plate of food.

I needed to hear this cause people are shocked I’m still co-sleeping & nursing. My baby is 13 months!

It is still very much the hood.

Curtis, I’m your woman!!

This has me laughing way too hard

YZV’s first word was “cat” at like 7 months. There’s been plenty of ASL she knows & understands like: please, yes, potty, hungry, eat, all done & more, milk, stop.

But today… at 13 months, my baby said Umi for the first time. She’s known how to sign it. But to hear her say it?! I’m in shambles. 🥹🥲
