Boy, does it get kinda hot – downright balmy…and humid… – after a bomb cyclone. That was a first, mind you. One of the topics of conversation whenever on the phone with someone back home has always been the weather. Smooth and easy, that topic. Like buttah. And I feel like, maybe, that’s a fairly […]

5cream Again
Oh wow. It has been 10 years since the last time movie audiences around the world saw OG Screamers Never Campbell, David Arquette, and Courteney Cox together again and fighting for their lives up on the big screen in Scream 4…not to mention, 25 years since director Wes Craven delivered the first and seminal Kevin […]
This Is the Last Time
This is the last time I beat myself up. The last time I knew a group of people, it fizzled because time ran out (the time before because I ran out…ish – another story, another time…or not). So I went away to reset unto an unknown time. People wondered where and how I’d be. I […]
Of goop and Me(n)
I listen to The goop Podcast, when I need to nurture my feminine side. Whoomp, there it is. And I gotta say, the recent conversation between Gwyneth Paltrow and Gabrielle Union was such a “J’ai eu un flash” moment. Union spoke to so much to which I could relate. And it helped, simply listening to […]
We with It
I have been saying – and writing…for the record – that the shit’s like The Day After Tomorrow for a minute now. In print, at least three years, since I became King. Of Cups. Now that we are paying attention, know that the media are gonna go beyond with the coverage, making it seem like […]
The Thing About DaBaby
The thing about the DaBaby is he said something ignorant. Look it up. DaBaby thought he was being funny/macho/who knows (who cares), when he said what he said on stage at Rolling Loud Miami on July 25, and he wasn’t. And so Madonna took DaBaby to school for it, so what more can I say […]
Juneteenth ❌ MMXXI
So tomorrow’s Juneteenth. Ish. Corporate America is giving millions of American workers Friday off, in observance of June 19 on Saturday. Juneteenth marks the day in 1865, when Texan slaves learned they had been freed, two and a half years after President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation on Jan. 1, 1863. I expect that […]
Spirituality
Boy, do we need to talk more about spirituality. The subject feels so daunting sometimes, though. So esoteric. Even now, still, after our most pandemical year that will not quit, you’d think we’d all be like, floating on air and shit, our auras vibing with one another in harmony, soundtracked by singing birds. But no. […]
I Don’t Know What to Tell Ya
I’m sitting here, overcome with emotion. Oh, I’m levitating, but I’m also feeling something I don’t often allow myself to feel: tears in my eyes. Out my eyes. Down my face. The groceries are done. Fortune cookies still must be gotten and mailed to my nieces and nephews, alongside well wishes and the spirit of […]
When and Where
Everything is relative to when and where you are…. And methinks that if, a whole looong year of global COVID-19 pandemic later (which our myriad privileges may have allowed us to feel…or not), if after all o’ that, and then some, more of us aren’t more “we” people than before, then we have not been […]
