If the shizzy hit the fizzy right now. How prepared would you be? And what things would you wish you acquired/done earlier? Keep that thought in your mind while preparing, get what you need, learn what you can ASAP, because there won’t be a warning when something happens. Stay safe, stay prepared 💪🏽
If it costs you your peace, it was too expensive
My coworker just said, "I shower every other day, because it's cold."
Did you know that Black people make up only 4% of DEI roles, while white executives control 76%? Yet, we’re often the face of DEI initiatives, doing the work without real power or benefits.
Think about your workplace—who’s leading the DEI discussions, creating the content, and doing the extra work? More often than not, it’s Black women, expected to fix corporate diversity while those in power remain unchanged.
It’s time to ask the hard questions: Are we leading real change, or just being used?
Ego Tripping (there may be a reason why)
Nikki Giovanni
I was born in the congo
I walked to the fertile crescent and built
the sphinx
I designed a pyramid so tough that a star
that only glows every one hundred years falls
into the center giving divine perfect light
I am bad
I sat on the throne
drinking nectar with allah
I got hot and sent an ice age to europe
to cool my thirst
My oldest daughter is nefertiti
the tears from my birth pains
created the nile
I am a beautiful woman
I gazed on the forest and burned
out the sahara desert
with a packet of goat’s meat
and a change of clothes
I crossed it in two hours
I am a gazelle so swift
so swift you can’t catch me
For a birthday present when he was three
I gave my son hannibal an elephant
He gave me rome for mother’s day
My strength flows ever on
My son noah built new/ark and
I stood proudly at the helm
as we sailed on a soft summer day
I turned myself into myself and was
jesus
men intone my loving name
All praises All praises
I am the one who would save
I sowed diamonds in my back yard
My bowels deliver uranium
the filings from my fingernails are
semi-precious jewels
On a trip north
I caught a cold and blew
My nose giving oil to the arab world
I am so hip even my errors are correct
I sailed west to reach east and had to round off
the earth as I went
The hair from my head thinned and gold was laid
across three continents
I am so perfect so divine so ethereal so surreal
I cannot be comprehended
except by my permission
I mean . . . I . . . can fly
like a bird in the sky . . .
Let this Marinate
Live looking for a fishing spot
