There was lots of time I wanted to give up but a spirit would always pull me back in. I had a damn near death experience a few years back and lost a few important people in my life and still remain in tact to following my dreams. I just can’t believe this who I am at 32 years old. 🥹
i’ve been deep diving into the study of gentleness recently. and it’s been really re-enlightening. it’s something i feel i’ve lost—be it by the hands of society or the ones in my life who were supposed to be safe spaces for it. but i feel really hopeful i’ll get that sense of self back. i have to.
I’m so glad y’all were able to see my vision in the flesh — but more importantly — that so many now understand how powerful and impactful our community can be. 💛 When we come together, we can accomplish some spectacular things. If we are really all we got, then let’s continue to act like it. 🙂↕️
my body has interesting ways of adapting. my weight distribution fluctuates more dramatically day-to-day than most. one day i’m all swole(ish), the next day, smol(ish). it’s not dysmorphia either. my pcp years ago made note. also, i’ve been gathering empirical evidence of this for like 4 years now 😅

i don't know who needs to hear this but: someone that repeatedly does you wrong in order to get a reaction, response, or non-response out of you so they can ultimately justify doing the worst things they've always wanted to do as a follow-up to your reaction, does so deliberately. it is abuse.
a deathiversary and several traumaversaries all in the same week or so is a lot rn. but staying still and focusing on gratitude to anchor myself. baby needs more, new, happy memories.
As the saying goes, “Honesty without compassion is brutality.”
Being brutally honest is not a flex. It’s actually a red flag.
i looked really nice today for an interview and a "hey brother" white guy complimented my braids for like 30 seconds straight, right before i went in. he was cool. and i did really well. but i... might have to book an appointment with my braider soon. 😅
INT. MY HOME — EVENING MALLEWI enters MALLEWI'S PERSON: welcome home, baby. i missed you so much today! [eating dinner together; watching a show together; powered by snuggles; gossiping/complaining bout the day; threaded by words of affirmation, small, sporadic kisses in seemingly random places]
functional depression been getting the best of me lately and my best friend has been unknowingly been coming to my rescue. i have deep appreciation for ones that embrace me when i’m not at my best bc i’m used to isolating myself, as people don’t have the capacity or capability to care for my stuff.
shared my dream con cosplay look on instagram. i had so much fun. 🤍
dream con has actually been so amazing so far. so nice seeing + meeting a bunch of cool, nerdy, charismatic, beautiful Black people in one spot. day #2, here we go!
emotion, devotion, to causing a commotion, creation, vacation, mucho masturbation! compassion, to fashion, to passion when it's new. to sontag, to sondheim, to anything taboo!!
me reminding you of a biracial manager in the workplace is clicking down. so please explain 😭😭😭😭
You remind me so much of the manager at my job. He’s just the biracial version of you.
so i just started going to the gym a year ago and been scared to try new things to supplement my workout. i've had a big jar of protein on top of my fridge for like a year. and i've been curious about creatine but idk where to even start with that or what the potential side effects are pls help? 🥺
honestly, as wonderful of a time i've had these past several days in houston for dream con, i'm taking away so much internally. that i deserve to be happy. i deserve to be free. i deserve to be celebrated. to be untethered from things + people + spaces dispelling whatever whimsy i have left in me.
@mallewi.bsky.social do we get to see the cosplay from this weekend?!?

i'm so sad. every RSVP event, after party, etc. is sold out or otherwise full and has been for some time. i really ain't know it was like this. i just learned how to really RSVP by way of the 3rd party PIXL app 😭 but my cosplay looks pretty neat, so there's that. but i really wanted to party tho 🥺💔
