Pardon my cluelessness… But what’s “runner”?

He was all enthusiastic and then went cold. Cancelled plans, stopped communicating. Fucked off basically.

Neither of them does anything for me tbh. Very few performers do nowadays… When did my soul go cold? ��

Well as a performer Rihanna doesn’t do much for me… but as a person I feel like I get a much better read on her personality than I do Beyonce. If you look at her instagram and twitter you can very much see her character. But to me Beyonce is a blank slate. I don’t get anything from her.

I feel like you should have seen this coming lol. I’m genuinely surprised the date happened so soon though. I thought y’all were having a group meet up first?

Apparently they were too eager. I expected she’d be excited I just wasn’t prepared for things to move so fast so I thought I’d get to ease into it a little. Ugh people in like are so annoying

mistavybe replied to your post “three”

Not trying to be a downer but are you scared at all about the fall out if it doesn’t work out with them though?

No… their worlds don’t intersect otherwise so if they needed to cut ties it wouldn’t affect anyone else. 

mistavybe replied to your post “Me: I didn’t see that girl, Marisa Dick, in the athlete thing.

…”

She was HORRIBLE girl! This bich went all the way to the Olympics to FALL OFF THE UNEVEN BARS and stumbled/fumbled in almost every event (she was AIGHT but mediocre in vault). ��

I only saw her on the balance beam and she looked really mediocre. She was very unsure of herself and it showed. She shouldn’t have been there, controversy aside, she just isn’t an olympic calibre athlete. She’s not sharp or polished her movements are all hesitant (from what I saw, and I know a thing or two about gymnastics). I haven’t seen Thema in action so I can’t say that she’s any better as a gymnast but Marisa was embarrassing.

I grew up on Enid Blyton too! Wish some of her books/concepts were made into movies or tv shows. I’d kill for a Wishing Chair series on like Netflix lol. Or a Faraway Tree movie ☺️

Yes those were my favourites! I guess the technology wasn’t there back then. They DID have a series about the Famous Five (god I can even remember the theme song) and I LOVED it, the casting was perfect too they all looked like I had pictured them in the books. But it’s sad that all her other amazing stories never made it to tv or the movies.

mistavybe replied to your post “We got a spiralizer. I can’t wait to use it. Anybody have any good…”

What in the name of all that is Holy and good is a spiralizer? Sounds like a super-villain’s death ray from a Saturday morning cartoon show that turns everything into spiral shapes… Or a Star Trek gadget that Scotty uses in the Enterprise’s engine room to fix the Warp Drive ��

It’s the first one.

No just kidding. It takes fruits and vegetables and makes them into long strings. You can cook veggies as you would pasta and use them as a replacement, good for people who are gluten free, low carb or just on trying to lose weight. 

Or it’s a super-villain death ray. That sweet potato used to be Batman

I’ve seen Americans use “side dude” or “side dick”. African Americans also use “side nigga”. You know we Trini does just call dat de “horner man” lol. Like the late calypsonian Penguin said: “A deputy essential!” 😆

Oh yeah I knew side nigga. And I forgot about horner man for some reason maybe I don’t use it. I swear it’s like an epidemic in T’dad.

I just literally LOL-ed . The pork reference with the pig emoji is extra funny lol. I don’t know which is more entertaining, the texts themselves or how into them you are lol. Here’s a mind blower though: suppose someone in the gay orgy circle is following you on Tumblr and sees that post? ☺️

Well most of the gay/bi Trinis that follow me are women. But if someone saw it I wouldn’t care? What the gay mafia gonna come shoot up my house cause I know where they doing dey ting? Hahahaha! I know stuff like that goes on (I had people on de inside already) I jus find the wording of the texts real funny

Lmao! Sooo… Are you gonna keep macoing the ppls orgy texts? *dead*

uhhh yessss? what would you do? text him back and say, Hey _____________, this is Chris, could you please stop sending me gay orgy texts? Hells no. Plus you should see them! “Bring dat fat pork! (pig emoji)” They’re fucking hilarious! I want to frame them!

mistavybe replied to your post “I decided that instead of listening to NPR this morning I’d try some…”

I haven’t listened to Trini radio in like forever. The only time I used to listen to radio was in the car and now I stream podcasts from my phone instead. Local radio is too hard on my nerves smh. And like you said loud and aggressive �� (I have to listen to some radio for work in order to monitor what songs are hot for carnival but that is more and more tedious work every year smfh)

I rarely even listen to it in my car. I tend to listen to BBC News when I’m driving. I’ve always found the most soothing things to listen to when driving are talk radio and classical music. But since we have no classical music stations here I just stick with BBC. It IS hard on the nerves. It’s assaulting and when I’m driving I don’t need my nerves to be frazzled too.

84!

84: I accidentally eat some radioactive vegetables. They were good, and what’s even cooler is that they endow me with the super-power of my choice! What is that power? Without hesitation my answer is flight. I thought for a moment if what I wanted was to actually just be in one place and then appear instantly in another (like go have dinner in San Francisco with my brother and then in a blink be back in Trinidad) but no… I like the idea of flight. I envy the birds. I’ve had many dreams where I was soaring through the sky and the feeling of freedom was the most intoxicating thing I’ve ever felt. So bring on the radioactive veggies!

I’d say it has more to do how I want to express myself. When speaking another language I find people tend to express themselves differently. The body language changes. Tone of voice. I can’t explain the French thing, I’m not fluent, but it happens often. Spanish is such a passionate language it should make sense I’d speak it if I’m angry or excited. The switching of accents happens depending on what I’m talking about. I think in difference accents too. It’s all very odd, but I’ve met other people who were multi-lingual who experience the same thing.

mistavybe replied to your post: “I just want to say thank you to all of you who are so encouraging…”:

Totally feel you on this. I feel like I’m exposing myself – vulnerable, naked & raw – every time a song I worked on is released. Creativity = rewarding but also nerve-wracking in a sense. Love your jewelry btw! Any uhmmm… more masculine pieces? 🙂

Yes vulnerable was the word I had in mind. Thank you by the way. Men’s jewelry… Hm what do you have in mind?
