BLM GON' NEED MORE PRESS



When Cardi B said, ‘bitches be pressed’, she wasn’t mf lying. Bitches be PRESSED, but bitches be pressed about the wrong things. Since the BLM has caught serious media attention, and the racists have been exposing themselves, I’ve noticed that people really don’t like it when they aren't met with silence. Everyday why is it race relations but did you check yourself before you wrecked yourself? Black lives really rattle people, inject iiiittttttttt !!!!  

People don’t like it when you don't comply with ignorance. People don’t like talking about racism because man "dont see colour". People don’t like it when Black and Brown people are talking about the never-ending oppression that we’ve had to endure through no choice of our own because “we’re not our ancestors”. All this ignorance and complacency brings me to re-introduce the town I live in and the obtuseness it’s almost always escorted by. This town has a very prominent community page on Facebook which is mostly used to share recommendations, tips and advice, and mostly family orientated things, but since the height of BLM, it’s really cementing the reason why we’re fighting in the first place. There is no excuse for complacency, ignorance and lack of information when it all completely free to access. The general consensus on the forum page is that white privilege is myth and Black people are using this movement for publicity in order to align ourselves with what’s going on. I'm sure you can fill in the blanks.

I feel as though people often don’t speak up on things which need to be challenged to avoid ‘saving face’ and avoidance of confrontation, but there is no room for comfort if we are trying to progress as a society. Black people aren’t going anywhere and neither is the movement so mf’s who don’t know better get to know.

Alongside the comfortability topic also comes the ‘wokeness’ of big brands, platforms, and TV productions such as YouTube, The Simpsons, Morphe etc who are now 'realising things'. YouTube and everyone around them are all realising things. Looool, shoutout Kylie Jenner for saying wagwan with that but listen. All these platforms are mocking it. Shane Dawson and Jeffrey Starr. How long have they had such large platforms on YouTube and whatever else, how long have they been KNOWN racists but YouTube have only decided to do something about it now? Has Jeffree Starr ever been out of pocket for calling Black women gorillas and being openly racist? Bro. It's actually jarring. It has been from the beginning. Moving on to The Simpsons and Family Guy. They’ve only now decided to change their voices for the Black and Brown characters on their shows to ACTUAL Brown and Black people Has the social and political awareness only now just clicked? How long these shows have been on television? YIKKESSSS. Being fake woke is really gonna wipe these people out.

People in positions of power and with mass amounts of money don't give a fuck about Black lives. They love endorsing racists and it’s never an issue until they could potentially be no longer in their bag. These companies do not sing the same song when users of their platforms are being overtly racist and it doesn't help that everyone is only 'woke' for a second and then its making to enabling and allowing racists to be in their bag further.

But anyway, we just want more done than just police only losing their jobs. We want jail time and accountability. Cancelling your 'faves' would also help but nobody has ever been cancelled efficiently so why start now?

Reparations today can be taken via the link below and by also saying FUCK TWELVE three times in the mirror.

Fake it 'till You Make It

  In the age of social media, I must say, there are some really pretty motherfuckers out there. Really and truly, but with that also comes the thief of joy.  These days I can't go on any social media app without comparing myself to the 12/10 BBL baddies on TikTok who have probably used an app to make their asses fatter than they really are. Even though I am fully aware of this, comparison never leaves the chat.   I know that I am wonderfully and fearfully made. I know that I have a 10/10 personality. I know whoever ends up with me is going to be the luckiest man on Earth, but none of this stops me from thinking that I could be doing more to make myself look better. Should I get my hip dips filled? Are my lips big enough? How do I get in touch with Ari the Don's surgeon? Which out of my tax bracket products are the rich and famous using on their face? HOW CAN I LOOK LIKE KIM K? LOL, kidding guys. I'm black. Kim K wants to look like me - well not anymore lol. Anyways, I reall

3 us man !

 I’ve been trying to refrain from writing anything for the best part of this lockdown due to my mental health being in the gutter, but with lockdown easing in a few days, I think it might induce high serotonin levels of the entirety of the UK. I can only speak for myself, but this lockdown has truly been the toughest one of them all. I feel like with the other two it was just all up in the air; the first one was completely unknown to us, the second one was like ok no direction just vibes, but THIS ONE has been a true testament to the attachment I have to planet earth. I think sometimes when the tough times LAST, you begin to question yourself and your feelings and for me it only makes things worse. Pre-covid if we were having bad days we could take ourselves on dates, go for dinner with a friend, literally everything we have currently not been permitted to do and tbh not being able to cheer yourself up sucks. Ordering clothes ain't doing it for me like it used to (hasn't stop
