a great alternative to starbucks in the gentilly area is Pontilly Coffee. black owned, staffed by recovering addicts & families going through hard times. also super cheap & good!
students at pwis asking why they can’t jokingly call their school an hbcu is like white people asking why they can’t jokingly say nigga with their friends.. but that’s just my opinion, i digress.

it’s a little frustrating seeing all of the out-of-towners joke & talk about going party elsewhere while we’re evacuating our literal homes & getting separated from family…
@ my xu followers, just know admin is working nonstop to make the end of the year as ideal as possible & a lot is out of their control. my mom has barely been able to prepare our house for this because the students’ well being is her top priority. please be patient yall!
no, I do not feel bad for cutting off people who crossed several lines with no explanation. you didn’t feel like you owed me loyalty so I don’t feel like I owe you an explanation🤍

this spring has been one of the toughest times for me mentally, emotionally, & physically but i’m so happy to say it’s a 4.0 semester THROUGH IT ALL, talk to me nice but don’t talk to me twiceee🥂
to my followers in new orleans planning on going out tonight please be extra cautious. it is rumored that right wing antagonists are in town with intention of escalating the protests. everyone be safe!!!
y’all get to go home if real damage occurs.. just to put it into perspective, my family has never returned to the home we lost in katrina so there’s no telling if our homes will be there when we get back. just be sensitive
yall’s responses to bernie dropping out & inability to listen to people on the tl trying to explain that it is still important to vote is really just highlighting the lack of education & understanding of politics & elections in our community. sad to see it.
