Fah Coloured Gullls

That's what it sounds like when you live in Atlanta. I went to see it this weekend. So... SPOILER ALERT!

I guess I knew people go through mess but GOT DAMN. I guess if you've never been abused you ain't been through nothing. I swear to all mighty God that I did not know men would talk to a girl all nice and sweet for 2 weeks, beg and plead to take her out to dinner and have a great time with her. Kiss her all sweet, and beg and plead all cute for a second date, then rape her. LAWD! I had no idea. You can rape somebody for free. You did all this wooing, for why? That was so upsetting to me. Now this movie got me out here side-eyeing every man that I've ever went out with. I can thankfully say every time I've said no (and meant it) that he (whoever he was) listened to me. I'm glad I say this because I usually think if someone is being all nice and seemingly genuine that they aren't faking it. I'm not a good liar. I'm going to be more careful because I am a tease and so far I've been really lucky.

I did not know negroes was throwing babies out of windows. If I was going to cry at any point in the movie this was the scene. Crystal should have known better than to let that fancy ass car pull up in front her house. She wasn't thinking. Poor children. They are honestly better off dead. It's a shame some people can procreate really. She should have left him so long ago.. I was so pleased to see Gilda tell her that she needed to take some responsibility in their deaths. Children need to be protected. If daddy is an ass, mama must protect them and vice versa. She did not do her part. I know I have more backbone than that. I don't give a damn you went to war. I work everyday and raise yo kids. Negro please! I have no sympathy for that sorry ass man talmbout "why wont you marry me?" She at least had enough sense there. When she was trying to clean the sidewalk I was done! I couldn't even imagine. I understand why she didn't want to live.

So Girls are still getting abortions in low down dirty places. Coming from a never been pregnant person who's an adult now and nobody would side-eye me if I turned up pregnant, nor would it ruin my life, yet I still don't want no babies. As a teenager as scared as I would have been. My ass would have went straight to my mama. She always knows what to do. She would have been pissed and I can guarantee I would have been slapped its better than getting a non-sterilized abortion. I said I didn't want THIS baby, not babies ever?! There are so many options, official abortions at a clinic, adoptions, and keeping the baby. I can't tell you what I would have chosen. I just can't believe girls are still doing that.

I loved the crazy mama. I feel a lot of people have crazy parents like that. I loved Thandie's character too. I know a plethora of chicks just like that. And I hope I look as amazing as Phylicia Rashad for the rest of my time on earth!.

Homosexuality in the Church

I live in Atlanta. Homosexuality is as common as a drive-by shooting. Open homosexuality that is. I'm from VA. There are probably as many gay there. They just aren't out because a lot of the time you can't be. I'm so proud of Atlanta for the acceptingness of the LGBT community. Its the straight up bible belt here! Why cant ole mid-Atlantic Virginia get it together?

Anyway I've started going to a new church that is full, lleno, packed, straight up crowded with gays and just people in general. They congratulated a lesbian couple on their marriage this morning. Everybody was so excited for them. I didn't see one ounce of judgement. I also noticed that the demo tends to be 20-40ish. I always felt that at my old church in RVa that it was the older folk that kept us from being progressive. Eventually one day we will be the old folk and hopefully we can change along with the youngins.

I'm glad it seems like being gay is no longer looked at as something all about sex. That's why so many people have problems with it. I don;t know anybody who has a problem with love. Homosexuality is no longer a classified mental illness. I'm glad gays in Atlanta have a home to worship in because New Birth is NOT that place. Oh and the manly lesbians stay out in full force, you know I have a slightly lesbian spot for all of y'all. LOL.

Pics I Love!







Alzheimers?

When is the age of onset? Can it start in your 20s. Maybe my ass is just forgetful as all get out. It took me 2 weeks to remember to buy some AAA batteries. I just bought some AA's after a 3 month stint without them. I have been meaning to buy this composition book all damn semester. I often go to the store reciting what I;m going to buy and then I get in the bitch and I look stupid. I don't remember why I came here. I try to make lists but I cant remember to save my life to do that either. This is why folks live with the 'rents so damn long. They wouldn't have you toilet paper less or without juice. And why can't I get me a damn lunchbox so I'm not starving up at school all day. Oh I know because I forget.
