nothing else matters

Just met a fellow screen printer on the bus.

A young black woman. That’s a first. I literally never meet another black person in the Chi who’s a studio monkey/hardcore screen printer… some of yall don’t know what lonely artist is

fuck my life for being fresh out of business cards rn…

the fleeting moments

This dark skinned black woman on the train rn has a gorgeous complexion

don’t know whether to laugh or be pissed that I made the conscious choice to stop responding and reacting to ppl in the ways of the old me and these same folk who claim to be cool wit me/be my friends/love me still doin the same problematic blind ass shit in interaction with me…

like aren’t u fuckin tired of participating in that scenario yet?

and then some of these new muhfuckas I let in my space is on the same demo, just mode: xtra - doin the most, like u even fuckin know me or my life like that to just go in off gp and I’ma tolerate that shit?! FOH!

so-called human beings steadily takin my benevolence and generosity for weakness

like I’m that nigga to take advantage of when we all know I’m no one special I’m just tryin to elevate

marks should be thankful I’m not a malevolent entity. daily

annoyed as fuck by both types of responses

just realized I think I lost a follower that I really appreciated :/

breaking a bad habit of barking up the wrong tree

unless u approach every thing and every being with benevolence, lack of ego and an open mind

u will inevitably exhibit problematic attitudes and/or behavior towards somebody

So many days and ppl have revealed to me this year what’s really good

and they didn’t even know they were telling on themselves

transparent and translucent
