Preach!!! My wifey @themelster speaking truth to power + fighting for the freedom queer and trans kids everywhere to exist as their full selves. So proud 😍😭🌈

@KAnneSAnderson @BombshellCole Bless her 🥹🙏🏾🙌🏾♥️

@BombshellCole My grandmother was the neighborhood Granny. She raised a whole subdivision. Even when those kids got older they would come visit. And if they got locked out or something they knew Granny was safe & they could come to her until their parents came home…

Do the hood grannies still run in home daycares? Because baby… they used to be EVERYTHING. Them babies was fed, potty trained, knew their ABCs, and got fussed at just enough to stay in line. They might’ve had a little cereal in their bottle, watched Maury all day, and about 12 kids in a two bedroom, but they were loved, safe, and somebody was watching them like a hawk. And it was AFFORDABLE! We lost the recipe when Ms Linda stopped keeping kids.

My favorite James Baldwin line: "There is a reason, after all, that some people wish to colonize the moon, and others dance before it as an ancient friend."

@Blackwolfbear Oof you should study your hip hop history cuz this ain’t it 🥴

Old niggas from New york mad because no one heard of beatnuts who are some local New york rapper from 90s

Tail end of Gen X is top tier of all Gen X. 80s kid + 90s teen is the right combo.

Justin Fairfax murdered his wife Cerina in their home, then killed himself and left their kids to pick up the pieces. As Black men, we need to be clear in moments like this: nothing is worth killing a Black woman. Nothing. Pain is real. Divorce is real. Depression is real. Rage is real. But none of it justifies violence against a woman. Too many Black women carry the weight of loving men who haven’t healed. Too many children are left to pick up trauma they didn’t create. A man who cannot control his anger is dangerous. And too often, the people closest to him pay the highest price. We don’t want excuses when others kill us. We shouldn’t make excuses when Black men kill Black women either. Accountability must be consistent. Protection must be intentional. Healing must be a priority. I grieve for Cerina, her children, and everyone who loved her. And I want Black men to hear this plainly: If you harm a woman, that is not manhood. Get help before you become harm.

FIFA having its corrupt way with every single city and country its ever touched until suddenly being shocked and stunned into submission by a final, even more corrupt thing: New Jersey

@texual @_johnsonator

@_johnsonator It made my apartment search change to the upper east side rather than gramercy park b/c i don't want to be charged 9 bucks just for driving below 60th.

the people who want NYC to be a car city should just move to anywhere else in America tbh. it takes a special level of entitlement to want the one dense walking city in the US to be a parking lot, when you have your pick of parking lot cites to choose from.

@SamanthaBXgirl @_johnsonator Boom 🎯

@_johnsonator You are not from here. NYC has been a walking , public transit, car city. If you do not want cars move out. We have always had cars. We have not always had you.

@shimmeshimmeeay @Younglordsean And if they did you had to give them turn by turn directions 😵‍💫😩

@Younglordsean They never would go to BK either

Being scared of the mta is wild I remember a time before uber where cabs just wouldn’t stop for black ppl or just wouldn’t take you to the Bronx if you asked them lol

@Misedctdyth @Atom_Kane_ LO fucking L 🤣🤣🙌🏾🙌🏾

@Atom_Kane_ I thought everybody in New York was Spiderman and just swung everywhere on dates…

Dating anyone in nyc who won't take mta is insane delete them now they are a bad person

@NYCMayor Thank you for educating us so often about the many cultural traditions of our neighbors 🙏🏾🤩

To all Sikh New Yorkers: Happy Khalsa Sajna Diwas and Vaisakhi! This joyous holiday commemorates the founding of the Khalsa by Guru Gobind Singh ji, a defining moment that established the Sikh identity and its call to serve humanity selflessly, protect the religious rights of all, and stand against political oppression, tyranny, & discrimination. May we all carry forward the spirit of Vaisakhi as we work together to build a city rooted in freedom and belonging for all.

@whotfisjovana Real queens 🙌🏾

unironically best coachella vid i’ve seen

@J_lMl_J @MandyKnowsDC 💀🤣

@MandyKnowsDC Gotta hear what he has to say about yakubians

Just came across a “white hillbilly from Missouri” who follows the teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad — first in my bloodline to witness this 🫪

@NoodlesAndSalad @afrojudaic @Sturgeons_Law @hegelpill Exactly

@afrojudaic @Sturgeons_Law @hegelpill Yea but a lot of their rock can still be traced back to black american roots and direct influences

Black Americans, specifically, are unbeatable when it comes to popular music. No other national or subnational population in the world comes close in terms of the sheer number of major genres and styles they've pioneered.

@SVG__Collection Welcome to NYC!! We love it too and love to share it with cool and kind visitors! 🗽💪🏾♥️

First time in New York City. This place is f*cking amazing.

@catalinamike47 @ReallyAmerican1 @ZohranKMamdani @MarcoFoster_ @RAMediaNetwork

@ReallyAmerican1 @ZohranKMamdani @MarcoFoster_ @RAMediaNetwork The more Mamdani talks, the more he sounds like Kamala’s word salad speeches. HE DOES NOT SAY ANYTHING OF SUBSTANCE!

Q: “What would you say to Elon Musk about waste, fraud, and abuse?” Zohran Mamdani: “I would say that this isn’t actually a right wing concern. It’s a concern right at the heart of leftwing politics because as people who care deeply about public goods, we care just as deeply about public excellence. And we know that if we want New Yorkers to believe in the power of government to deliver for them, we have to show that every single dollar in our budget is going towards exactly that. We’re proud to be looking for inefficiencies or examples of fraud or waste across city government, eliminating them, and then delivering on what people actually voted for”

@EyesOnRoman @themanflo @CcosmicKidd @flower45734 @billboardatl Nah you won 🏆 🙌🏾😂

@themanflo @CcosmicKidd @flower45734 @billboardatl Yup

What I find so interesting about these depictions of Asian people in music is that in contrast in REAL they RARELY act like this & are judgmental as hell of anyone who dresses & acts this way, yet are selling this imagery successfully

@ChronicBabak @jimfornyc @SoyBoyOfficial @MeidasTouch @brandk110

@jimfornyc @SoyBoyOfficial @MeidasTouch @brandk110 We’re arguing about who should pay for it. You want to nickel and dime everyone. We think wealth inequality is out of control and people who own more than one home have superfluous wealth, thus capacity pay. You’re trying to fool us with what is essentially a “flat tax” on goods.

NEWS: Huge first win for Mayor Mamdani’s tax-the-rich plans in NYC. Mamdani just secured a deal with Gov. Hochul to create the state’s first-ever tax on $5 million+ second homes owned by ultrawealthy out-of-state residents. Hochul hopes to raise $500 million annually that would be used to address the city’s deficit.

to all the non-south asian people, this is like whitney houston passing away. 💔

@AsadFromNYC Hahahaha that’s what was happening? Amazing! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

Every time Zohran named off some accomplishment at his speech, a Black Muslim elder kept shouting HAMDOOLA (praise be to God) which was both beautiful and awkward because he was genuinely supporting the Mayor but most people probably thought he was heckling lol
