Episode 55: Bring Ya' Friends

I Can't Fux With You! Confessions of An Uppity Black Woman

We ARE fuxing with Joy today ya'll. Whew! Dr. Claudine Gay's resignation and Dr. Candia-Bailey's death by suicide had us dark. It was a 1-2 gut punch at the start of 2024. And sometimes I feel that that is where the world wants the Black Woman to stay - to forget that there is unlimited joy that is accessible to us. So that is what we doing today! At the start of the year, Essence wrote an article entitled: It’s Time For Joy In 2024: Here Are 12 Fun New Year's Resolutions For Every Black Woman and I must say I agree with every last one! Maybe not 100% with the order of 1-12, but they are all actual factual, and every #ubw along with her homegirls needs to be incorporating them in her life, Right.The.Fux.Now! Today we discuss numbers 1-6, which include:
1. Try Something Outside the Box (Yes - ice fishing in Quebec sounds like an excellent idea)
2. Have More Sex! (This really should be #1 and should indeed specify having sex with yourself - ahem!)
3. Date Outside Of Your Type (Why helloo there Mr. Chen)
4. See Some World! (You got the cash, I know you do. Besides, Mr. Chen is not local)
5. Journal Consistently (Do that data dump routinely, let it out!)
6. Hot Girl Trots (Go outside. Move that a**)
Before we get into doing our joyful moments as it pertains to this particular list, we will discuss some of my own joys which include New Friend-ing and Black People-ing. Sis, I know at times it feels as if there is a concerted effort to destroy the Black Woman and forever steal her joy, but it is available to you - and you do deserve to have it. If no one has told you today - I love you!
