Chester Bennington of Linkin Park passed away roughly two weeks ago and for the first time in awhile, I found myself pretty much speechless. I always turn to words in times like this, but for a long time, the words refused to come. All trace of wit and eloquence exited my brain and I was … Continue reading
I know you’re probably gasping at that title, but here’s the thing: …it’s been that kind of week. And I’m here to play muthafucking ball. Anyhow. It’s been a while since y’all have seen me on this side of the internets. Inspiration has been dry and my mental health has been all over the place … Continue reading
Hell hath no fury like a White woman who is insecure. This is fairly a blunt ass way to start this piece off, since I haven’t seen y’all in like two months. To be fair, The Orange™ has been fucking so much shit up that it’s been giving me whiplash and simultaneous fatigue as a … Continue reading
Lovers of the Zoo. I took a break this past week because, after two straight weeks of mounting ammunition against White Feminists™ and White Supremacist Comic Book Fans™, I decided that the petty needed to be put on the charger. Of course, in the week I was off, a lot of things happened. Another Black … Continue reading

Because if that’s the case, this tweet should bother you as well: I’ll be honest with you. A lot of my … Continue reading
And yes, I wrote that as well as said that in my best Yoda voice. As you can tell by these last couple of posts, this weekend was an interesting one. To say the least. Lena Dunham wildin. The Orange One™ skittering into Black churches. And then, Mark Ruffalo…going full Well-Meaning Chet™. “What he do, … Continue reading
Lovers of Zoo. WHEN I TELL YOU THAT GOD IS A JUST GOD. GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME AND ALL THE TIME GOD IS GOOD. Y’ALL. I was taking a fucking nap yesterday when my phone started buzzing off the hook. You see, I’m a messy bitch that lives for allada drama, so the … Continue reading
UPDATE: AFTER CALVIN HARRIS THREW UP THE LAYUP L, KIM KARDASHIAN-WEST SLAMMED IT DOWN ON TAYLOR SWIFT’S HEAD. READ THIS POST FOR MORE DEETS, Y’ALL. Greetings, Lovers of the Zoo. If you’re like me, you woke up today, ready to have a mundane ass Wednesday. And then, SUDDENLY, out of nowhere the Fire Nation attacked…Calvin … Continue reading
*Originally published on Moviepilot* One of Moviepilot’s trending topics for the week was about “Celebrities Moving Away From LA” and kind of retreating into their own spaces to escape from the public’s eye.
