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 stopped me tho lol)

However, it hasn’t been all bad. That summer body is pending for June 21st; ya boy also got a new job, shout out to me, myself and I. My optimism reached new heights when Boris said 21st of June, doors will open. I’m going to live like I’ve never lived before and it truly makes me uneasy how little home training I may have this coming season LMAOOOO (kidding lol). 

But in the same breath, I feel for many people, the doors opening isn’t really an easy thought to process. Lockdown has induced social anxiety for people who may never have had it, accentuated pre-existing mental health which can be worsened in social scenarios, and all in all induced fear in regard to being in public vicinities. 

I hope and pray everyone looks after themselves and I hope you don’t push yourself to be social for the sake of it. It’s gonna take some people longer to recharge and familiarise themselves with outside life and that’s totally okay.

Anyways, if I don’t write again anytime soon, I hope summer is enjoyed responsibly and I hope you listen to your mind when shit doesn’t feel right. Slow and steady wins the race.

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 us

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
