Issa Had Us: On the End of an Era and Life Lessons from Insecure.

December 27, 2021

Listen. The anticipation of the end sometimes feels worse than the end. I know because I’m writing this part before the finale episode even starts. I’ve loved this show from season one. From Molly’s dating shenanigans to the time Tasha dropped that good word, from the exploration of Black women’s sexuality to the excavation of Black women friendships and the #teamIssa #teamLawrence divide, Insecure did what great art does. It kept us talking. Questioning. Reflecting. Critiquing. As much[...]

Treating Our Mollys Like We Treat These Men: On Insecure, Friendships and Forgiveness

June 7, 2020

Before I start, lemme preface this by saying I’m still high off watching Yvonne Orji’s comedy special “Momma I Made It,” so maybe I’m conflating Molly and Yvonne and feeling all warm and fuzzy when I shouldn’t be. Maybe it’s the gewürztraminer. Because the last few weeks I was all #teamIssa #Mollyaintshit. And now I’m wanting them to make up. Either way, this what you getting because this what I got. So, I had a falling out with a friend a short while back. Not the dramatic[...]

A Tale of Two Tashas: On Black Women, Sexuality and Ownership

August 11, 2017

Seems I have a bit in common with TV's latest hated women. Not Olivia Pope, although I do work in D.C. and will sport a mean coat. Mary Jane neither because ain't no way I'm ever moving to New York. I'm talking about the Tashas. In part because that's my club name. If I'm interested when you ask, I say my name is Tasha. Don't have a club name? Better get you one. Because everybody don't need to know you. And please get comfortable with your club name because not answering to it is a dead giveawa[...]

When Tasha Dropped the Gospel: On Insecure and the Book of Relations 4:43

August 7, 2017

So all during the episode I was preparing a whole 'nother blog post. I was gon' talk about how Molly is going to let comparison be the death of the relationship she ain't even had yet. I was gon talk about Molly and Issa switching roles (Issa tryin' to be a hoe, Molly trying not to be) and getting exactly what they (don't) want. I was gon talk about how it's best to just be you to avoid adding to your body count and only getting bad sex or the foolishness of turning down Sterling K. Brown (I kno[...]

Molly, You In Danger Girl: On Insecure, Dating and Prejudice as Standards

November 14, 2016

There are two things I never discuss here (or in any social media space)— my life as it relates to finance and romance. As far as the interweb in concerned, I'm broke and can't keep a man. Thankfully, The Year of The Black Girl (2016- Infinity) gives us a ton of cinematic spaces through which to explore Black women and love without me telling y'all all my business. Issa Rae and squad continued the year's #BlackGirlMagic theme with Insecure, a show centered on the life of main character Issa[...]

When it comes to a peaceful aesthetic, one of these kids is doing the wrong thing. With acrylic storage, things that aren’t color coded can start to feel visually overwhelming. A room full of the bottom right corner can literally make some folks feel more stressed (it’s me, I’m folks). A bunch of the storage was starting to look like that because I buy too much shit. Anyway, a quick purge of products I’m not using and delegating anything that didn’t coordinate to hidden storage instantly made a difference (I wish I’d taken a pic before I started). It might seem hella extra to some folks but nothing is too extra for my peace of mind. Swipe for the update. What are some extra steps you take to keep your peace in your home? #homeorganization #homedecor #storage #bodybytph #acrylicstorage #beautyroom
