the 5 Simpsons lines I've uttered most off the top of my head 1) stupid sexy Flanders 2) it’s just a little airborne. It’s still good. It’s still good. 3) BLECH gimme the crab juice! 4) money can be exchanged for goods and services 5) …. Yesssss…. (Obviously lieing)

Just watched the Hamilton pro-shot for the second time and now I can't stop thinking about the Reynolds Pamphlet and how bad Alexander Hamilton would be at Traitors. #theatrekid #musicals #hamilton #talkless #blacksky

Black kinfolk: Never forget to leave room for whimsy whether it be in your day to day life or even work. Joy is resistance. Resistance is joy. Both go hand in hand. Authoritarian structures work hard to deny u both, ergo u must quintuple your efforts when you find them & spread them to others too!

I've never been this sad about a celebrity breakup before. For me being a #Nicolandrian has been about rooting for #blackwomen , particularly #darkskinned Black women, to put themselves first and love who loves them well. Even if our namesake ship no longer says, our colors still fly high.

This season in a nutshell. A really worthwhile read to understand why this season felt so important. #LoveIslandUSA

What “Love Island USA” Says About Today’s Dating Gender Wars

Season 8 of the wildly popular reality show saw a troubling descent into male-supremacist behavior—and a satisfying rejection of it

harpersbazaar.com

Cosigning w/ @zaydante.bsky.social I've shed my tears for the Black Stars 🇬🇭 and Les Bleus 🇫🇷. I've screamed my head off for Cape Verde too 🇨🇻. Now all I have to say is Come on, England! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 They're the underdogs and I just can't root for Argentina. #worldcup #England #judebellingham #marcusrashford

I CAME HERE FOR LOVE and I got everything I wanted! TWO dark-skinned Black women, happy and with men who adore them! And on top of that we have the lovely friendship of the #core4 ! This show owes me NOTHING! #LoveIslandUSA #Carniya #Brinity #edenappiahkubi #authorlife #Blacksky #romancelandia

#loveislandusa Thank you for an outstanding finale! Through your grief y'all made an amazing season

If you like reading with your ears, you can listen to on Librivox, which offers public domain materials read by volunteers. This is the only reading of the full, hour long speech I could find and I think it's worth listening to the whole thing.

"for revolting barbarity and shameless hypocrisy, America reigns without a rival..." A reading recommendation for today.

If you need to weaponize transphobia or misognoir to defend Black women, you're doing it wrong and your "help" is exactly the opposite. #LoveIslandUSA

It's Still June and 2-3 Wrongs don't make right. Keep it Cute😘

Summary of my #LoveIslandUSA rant: Either let these bros come out with show support or STOP QUEERBAITING! Our Rainbow Fam has been through enough! AND I'D BEST NOT hear a note of "All The Things She Said" or me and production will have WORDS!. #liusa #realitytv #rant #hottake #heatedrivalry #tv

It's Pride Month! Let them be bros in love or let them them be bland straights

Bryce...my guy! This is starting to get humiliating. Kayda is cute with Zach. But your mom is white, sis. #liusa #LoveIslandUSA

Gabriel reminds of Adam Collard LIUK S4, the kind unber male bombshell that is my least favorite type of islander. I think that's why I get the ick so bad. Beatriz continues see through Gabriel. I think she's the only one who can handle him. #liusa #LoveIslandUSA #LoveIslandUSA #LIUSA

The narrator reminding everyone it's only been 24 hours is pretty hilarious. Kenzie is doing too much for a guy who said "I don't date blondes but sure I guess." Sincere being more aggrieved over Bea than Copdad is a 🚩! Meanwhile, humidity is great for Aniya's hair. #LoveIslandUSA #liusa

I instantly am not about Gabriel! His vibes are rotten!

Who thought we wanted Taylor without Clarke?! No thank you! Glad to see he's recovered from his injury, but still! #LIUSA #LOVEISLANDUSA

Wait, are Aniya and KC really cute? Also, I love all the regular degular in this cast. #LIUSA #LOVEISLANDUSA

I like this combination of chemistry and compatibility! It's a more interesting way to do this than the old UK step forward. #LoveIslandUSA#LoveIslandUSA8

Bryce and Kenzie look like side characters in the same 90s sitcom... and yet I don't see them together AT ALL. #LOVEISLANDUSA #LOVEISLANDUSAS8

Thank you, Poppi, for putting Olandria on my TV! #LOVEISLANDUSA #LOVEISLANDUSAS8

Aniya has gorgeous eyes! I hope she's just kidding about wanting to settle. Actually, I'm concerned for all the girls except for Beatriz. The other girls seemed like they're built for The Bachelor. #LoveIslandUSA
