If Charles and Carlos weren’t heavily accented speakers, I wouldn’t find their conversations funny.
#as a Nigerian who grew up with Yoruba speaking parents there’s always something a little endearing about them trying to find the English#alternative of the word they are looking or trying to structure their English sentence makes sense#Charles and Carlos trying to figure out how to ask Lando how long his contract is will never not be funny#two gossip girls trying to figure out how to be polite but direct#I still don’t like Carlos though. so don’t think that this is a turning point#f1

Can you do Lucifer head canons please?
Lucifer Head-Cannons
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nightmares, Trauma, keeping everything to himself until he starts breaking down quietly in his room at night. Need I say more. Its mentioned multiple times throughout Obey me that he keeps to himself alot of the time and keeps up a mask, he sometimes struggles to keep himself composed and just breaks down quietly in his room. I also see him having nightmares and vivid flashbacks at the fact that Lilith died in his arms. He sometimes wakes up in a sweat thanks to these vivid nightmares, he doesn't let it slip to anyone that these happen, not even you or Diavolo
- I want to see that mask just fucking SNAP one day. Current day Lucifer breaking down infront of his brothers because everything is going wrong, your gone, your stuck in the past where it is almost lethal for a human, only Solomon can go visit you, his brothers worried out of their own minds, i just want to see his mask slip due to the fact his entire family are worried, scared, and confused
I feel like this man can speak so many different human world languages; Latin, Greek, English, Russian, Japanese, Chinese, Afrikaans, Nigerian, French, Germain, ect. The man is how many million years old, I feel like he would have had the time to study many different human world languages. He out of all of the brothers has the best pronunciation due to this skill. One day he found Satan starting to take up some languages, wanting to outdo Luci
I feel like he would be ambidextrous. One of the reasons I feel like he would be ambidextrous is because of the mountains and mountains of paperwork, and because Asmo likes to paint his nails. Every now and then, he comes into Lucifers room and just gossips with him while he does Luci's nails. Lucifer sometimes wants silence so Asmo gives him that, quietly doing his nails while Lucifer while works on his paper work. When its time to do the other hand, lucifer will just swap hands and continue his work while asmo starts on his other nails
Just like a bird, I feel like he needs to preen his wings every now and then. No one sees him while he does this, he is vulnerable during this time and does not like having people near people during. Depending on your relationship with him, he will have you near him while he continues to preen, eventually having you help him. He will guide your hands through his wings and show you how to do it properly. Once he can trust you enough with his wings, he'll have you do his base wings while he doesn't the tips
This man is the most prideful whenever he sees his pact mark on you whenever you have your hair up and or if you have short/no hair. His pact mark is on the back of your neck. When he does cuddle with you in the privacy of his/your room, he has his hand on the back of your neck, tracing the pact mark and placing with your hair. If you ever mention it, he would probably say something like "Yes, what about it?" "Its my pact, am I not allowed to examine such?", something like that. He isnt ashamed that he was caught, more prideful that his mark is forever on you, a small reminder of how much you mean it him
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I dont write for Luci often but i tried my best with this one!
What should I do next?

Give me muggleborn students trolling eachother via howlers and voice changers but they accidentally use muggle jokes that the pureblood kids don’t understand (think Nigerian Prince scams) so it spirals out of control.
“I didn’t know your family had ties to nobility? Why didn’t you mention it?”
“Pardon?”
“You’re familiar with African nobility? Enough that they send you howlers? And you didn’t care to mention that?”
“Oh… oh yeah that’s… my bad?”
Queue every muggle raised child realizing this opportunity and making eyes that scream “do NOT fuck this up for all of us” at each other before the gossip network does its work.
Anyways I just wanna see Goncharov level of unity because they absolutely would stick to the bit if someone fell for it.
Professor Snape would die over this silently, while all the pureblood teachers are like “???? Are you well, Severus?”

"What?" Obie asked and looked up at the person that was talking to him. "No, JC and I are not broken up and if you believe everything that Gossip Girl tells you, then I hope you get scammed by a fake Nigerian Prince. Please leave me alone." @ggstarterblog

Some interesting photos of TW in Nigeria by u/hammer1956
Some interesting photos of TW in Nigeria On one photo her feet are photoshopped, her toes shorter and in-line but there are six toes on each foot. Her photographer, Misan Harriman is there with her. You know, the one who denies he photoshops her pics. 🙄In another, H walking with a staff member and a Nigerian official and TW was made to walk behind them, that must have almost killed her. H is turning and looking back. He know he's gonna. pay Hell for this. She is dressed in very revealing dresses and the Nigerians are dressed conservatively. The dress she wore to visit a school is Euro flesh colored and backless!

Harkle/Nigerian Tea, Celta. Check out Saint Meghan Markle tumblr account for a post on May 19th entitled "Found the SS in Nigeria Texts! by u/OwnedByBernese." It appears to be about 7 screenshots of a text conversation between someone and a sugary fan or squad member in Nigeria. It's entertaining gossip, alright, lol.
Hi Nonny,
I had a quick look and the bad behaviour discussed in the texts doesn't surprise me. This is what the Harkles are known for now.
Thank you for sending in the tea. :)

Miles 1610 X Nigerian Y/N
notes: nigga when I tell you this took my too long to make. Like writing this is not for the weak bruh
warnings: jus fluff ig
summary: y/n takes miles to meet her nigerian parents. ( im nigerian so umm yea)
“Miles, they are not going to like you if you don't take this seriously.” You said this for the 15th time. Miles is coming with you to a party your parents are throwing at your house. You thought it would be a good time to introduce them to Miles for the first time. As much as you were excited, you were hella nervous because this was the first time you ever brought into this household. And not just any household, but a Nigerian one at that.
Miles needed to understand that one wrong move will ultimately end in your mom gossiping to all your aunts and your dad to the uncles saying, “ arabinrin mi, o ko ni gbagbọ aṣiwère ti ọmọbinrin wa mu fun wa lati pade oh.” (my sister, you won't believe the fool our daughter has brought back for us to meet oh)
It's like you could hear it from a mile away. The thought made you sweat bullets because you know that they'll never approve if they have a horrible introduction to each other. “ No Miles try again, that's not right! C’mon you actually have to try. “ You said about just giving up and saying maybe this isn't the right time for him to meet them. ‘’Mami por que te preocupas tanto?’’ He said coming closer to hold your waist. “ because you don't know my parents, they're super judgemental and really strict. Like they didn't want me to even think about boys until i was at the ripe age of 30.’’ “ Thats crazy.’’ He said while laughing.
‘Not its not, because as much as i love you, i need our parents to support our relationship.’’ you said as you were pacing around your room. ‘’ Ok ok I understand. Tell me what I need to do and I'll do it ok?” he said while grabbing both of your sides and engulfing you in a warm hug. And you sigh as you take in a pleasant whiff of his cologne.
TIME SKIP
Miles rang the doorbell to your parents house. “ remember everything i taught you please, and just be yourself at the same time.’’ you said while giving him a nervous smile. ‘’ Don't worry mami everything will be ok’’ He said wanting to give you a kiss but the door flew open.’’ e kassan mommy this is Miles” you said very sweetly to your mom. “ ekassan ma o dara pupọ o pade rẹ” Miles said while bending down to greet your mom. You just stand there; completely shook because you never taught him all of that. ‘’ Here are some roses I brought you, and you look completely beautiful, now I know where Yn got her beauty from.” He says smirking a little at you and how surprised you are. “ AHH AHH YN, why didn't you tell me you got with this handsome man?! Please arewa okunrin, what's your ethnicity, let me have three guesses!’’ your mom said begging the poor boy. “ No mom please no, he doesn't need to tell you all of that.” you said completely embarrassed that it even came out of her mouth. Luckily, Miles just laughed and proceeded to answer the question. “ I'm actually African american and Puerto rican ma.’’ “
Ehen so Yn has now gone and brought home a latin boy, ok ohh.’’ Your mom says, folding her arms in astonishment. “ Ok well Yns dad isn't here right now but you're more than welcome to stay.” Your mom says pulling him away for him to meet all your aunties. “ Come and see the fine boy Yn has brought to me ohh.’’ She exclaimed while pulling miles away. You laughed as you saw him being poked and prodded by many aunties at once. When they finally finished, which felt like hours after, he came back to meet you with a smirk on your face. “ Well, that was definitely something.’’ he said like he just saw a ghost. “ This is my family for you.’’ You said while laughing your head off. “ Haha. very funny.’’ He said while rolling his eyes. “ Anyway, im super hungry, can i get something to eat real quick?’’ He asked, wrapping his hand around your shoulder. “ Not too close omo, do you want her to get pregnant?!’’ Your mom yelled from far away. “ Mom! Stop please im begging” you said covering your face in embarrassment. “ Sorry!” Miles quickly said while moving his arm, but still scooting closer to you so that he can be near you as much as possible. “ Ok lemme just get something for you to eat c’mon.’’ You said while pulling him off the couch.
He followed you to the kitchen and jumped up when he saw plantain.
“ You guys have platanos too?!’’ “ Mi vida, here if anyone hears you call it that you're in big trouble. We call it dodo or plantain.” You said while rubbing his face by how cute he's being. “ Well whatever you want to call it, give me two big spoon-fuls of that please.” He said while looking at it like it was his prey he was about to catch. “ Ok OK! It's not going anywhere why are you looking at it like that?’’ You said, chuckling at how hungry he is. “ Oh and gimme some fufu and efo riro.” He said looking over the table. “ Miles bruh, how do you even know about that?’ You said dying of laughter. “ Mami stop asking my questions and just put it please i'm dying over here” He said all dramatic.
Ok so this is litterally my first story so dont judge me pls. :)

I've been looking into the King Charles has pancreatic cancer thing. Every news article I can find seems to get this info from an article with In Touch. Which is an American gossip magazine. I believe the article in question is this one:
I’ve found articles across four sites that mention King Charles specifically having pancreatic cancer. As said already one is American, a Nigerian site and two Pakastani sites. I’ve yet to find a single British news site reporting on it.
I’ve seen this topic posted in several anti-monarchy circles now, which is why I started looking into it. With the source of the claim anonymous the trail seems to end here. However I’m still looking into it because I want to see if I can find out anymore.
I have no evidence that it’s fake, there is absolutely a chance that this is a credible leak. But since it originates from a gossip site I think doubt should be cast. Honestly I just want people to stop throwing it around like fact.
I'll link all the stuff I found in a reblog.

he/him.
TW : mention of smoking, bad relationship with parents and coming-out(going good tho)
– Nigerian, adopted in Benin City.
– Capricorn.
– Transgender / AFAB.
– Tattoo artist.
• part of the “don’t give a fuck about being rich” duo. (skyh’s bestie<3)
• rejects every single one of his parent’s “beliefs” and morals.
• will never forgive them for the poor treatment of Liz. (clearly the sibling he’s closest to, jokingly calls her his “favorite”.)
• chillest person you’ve ever met.
• until the topic is his parents. he gets very tense.
• somehow knows everything about everyone. (that means he’s the best to gossip with ;] )
• is insanely scared of love and getting into a relationship. (he freaked out soooo bad when he realized his feelings for you–)
• loves people very deeply though. There are no words to describe the intensity of his feelings for his siblings, friends and you.
• a skater guy. (the cliché one listening to some mean linkin park, yeah, yeah, yeah.)
• loves drawing and painting. he regularly adds little drawings on his skateboard.
• one of the most creative people you’ll ever meet.
• becoming a tattoo artist has always been his dream.
• would go into mind break if you ask him to tattoo you. He’d be so touched and flattered you’d trust him with something such, he could cry.
• doesn’t have any tattoos himself though.
• wears long sleeves all the time, no matter the season and temperature.
• « You ever think about, like, how… . . damn, I forgot what I was saying. . . .Anyway, you hungry ? »
• LOVES to have movie night dates with you. both of you, cuddles, coraline playing in the back. perfection.
• random guy with a random sense of humour. definitely the type to find elaborated jokes unfunny but will be cry-laughing because of a goofy horn noise.
• is into urbex. loves to find and explore the most rannndom, weirrrrd places. it kind of freaks you out sometimes but it makes him happy so oh well. :)
• « I swear ! I found the coolest place; apparently it’s an ancient hospital where patients used to summon evil spirits. We haaaave to go tonight ! Imagine if we hear like… weird laughs and little voices and shit. That’s so sick??? »
• absolutely hates alcohol. grape juice though ? he needs it to function.
• he's the jealous type. (but won't everrrr admit it; he'll pout and whine if you mention it.)
• writes lyrics of his favorite songs on the sole of his shoes.
• Oliver and him, as the « only bros of the pack », love to roleplay as exaggerated dudebros/toxic masculinity fucks from time to time and they always get cut short by Dominic and Liz’ disapproving glares, which only causes them to giggle stupidly and exchange knowing glances. dudebros in their own bubble i guess–
• draws little hearts and stars on your skin. (would definitely color your tattoos if you have some!)
• the funny introvert of the group.
• laughs very easily. he looks scary until he flashes you the whitest, largest, most genuine smile eveR.
• kind of has fangs. cute little fangs. (and he bites to show his love, so yeah, prepare yourself–)
• obsessed with belts. He has a whole collection and it’s quite impressive–
• his love languages ? quality time and acts of service.
• plays guitar.
• calls you ‘precious’.
• it was his dream to join a band when he was in high school.
• sings you sweet lullabies when you can’t sleep – he has a beautiful, soothing voice, so it never takes you long to fall asleep.
• he was scared to death about coming out. Naturally, the first person he confided in was Liz, when he was 17. She had the sweetest, most supportive reaction and it really encouraged him to fully step out of the closet. By the time he was 20, he was out to the whole family, including his parents.
• has a special spot in his heart for Oliver. After all, he’s always been his ‘masculine role model’. (cause it sure as hell wasn’t his father lmao)
• remembers everything about you. even the smallest, ‘stupidest’ details.
• jokes about hating men all the time, and blames everything on them. The dishwasher not working ? Yeah, probably some man's fault. One of Celestia's designer bags missing ? Random dog barking in the streets ? Global warming ? MEN.
• very supportive. He’s the fondest about anything you do; he's always hyping up Mickayla’s brand and still wears her first pieces, he always showed up to Skyh’s plays even though he hates theater…No matter how uninterested he may seem; he deeply cares about what is going on around him and his loved ones.
• only wears silver jewelry, and you won’t ever catch him running around in the streets without a choker on.
• loves matching with you. phone cases, necklaces, bracelets, nail art – anything. anything as long as it's you.
• likes pda. Holding hands, hugging you, squeezing your waist, locking an arm around your shoulders… there’s no way you two go out and his hands are not everywhere on you.
• never smokes when you’re around. (unless you smoke as well, in that case; he will insist to light up your cigarette, it always brings a little smile to his lips when he does it.)
• wears strawberry chapstick 24/7. He can’t live without it.
• draws you all the time. He has lots of random sketches on the corner of his notebooks��� pages and big ass paintings of you hidden under his bed – he’s scared you’d find him too obsessive and creepy if you found out how many of those he has.
• a sucker for cartoons. If you wait for him on his bed, ready to cuddle, an episode of teen titans on the tiny TV in his room, he’ll wrap himself around you like a blanket and never let go–
• reserved, but very vocal about his dislikes. Like if someone says something he has a problem with, he’ll say it. He won’t be rude about it, but he’ll definitely make it crystal clear.
• one of his dreams is to have a matching tattoo with all his siblings. Something discreet and meaningful; a symbol for the unique, disconcerting experience that being a Foreman-McGuire is.
• « You look like a whole ass museum all by yourself, precious. I could look at you forever… and as a matter of fact, I will. »

As part of a far-flung community of fellow pop-culture feminists that has bloomed over the years, I've seen pop culture and media transform feminism, for better and for worse and feminism, in turn, change pop culture and media. But as I started to write this book, something weird happened: feminism got cool.
A current of excitement that had previously been humming just under the surface of mainstream culture suddenly amped up. In August 2014, Beyoncé commanded the stage at the close of MTV's Video Music Awards, the word "FEMINIST" glowing in neon lights behind her as her song "Flawless" sampled the words of Nigerian author Chimimanda Ngozi Adichie. (“We teach girls to shrink themselves, to make themselves smaller. We say to girls, ‘You can have ambition, but not too much.’”) The sample concludes with Adichie paraphrasing the dictionary definition of "feminist": "The person who believes in the social, political, and economic equality of the sexes." Though the song was already well known, and though Beyoncé's particular brand of business-minded feminism was threaded through lyrics dating back to her Destiny's Child days, the visual display served as her official flag in the ground. Bathed in spotlights, the biggest pop star in the world rocked the once-maligned label like a curve-hugging Met Gala dress, literally spelling it out for an audience of more than eight million.
Beyonce staking her claim to feminism was the start of a media domino effect. Shortly after, Emma Watson, beloved for years as Harry Potter's Hermione, gave a speech on the importance of gender equality to the United Nations noting, among other things, that "[i]t is time that we all perceive gender on a spectrum, instead of [as] two sets of opposing ideals." The pop singer Taylor Swift, who several years earlier had disavowed feminism, quickly changed tack with a media announcement that, in fact, she'd been feminist all along. At Paris Fashion Week, Chanel's runway-show finale took the form of a feminist rally, with models draped in the label's signature tweeds raising signs that read "History is Her Story" and "Women's Rights Are More Than Alright." Brands like Verizon, Always, and Pantene began centering feminist themes in their ads for wireless plans, maxi pads, and shine-boosting shampoos. And my Google alert for "women and feminism," which used to turn up lonely articles with headlines like "Feminism: Outmoded and Unpopular," began teeming with woman-power boosterism: "Beyonce's Hip New Club: Feminism," "Emma Watson Gives Feminism New Life," "Why Male Feminists Are Hot." Seemingly overnight, almost every female celebrity—and a fair number of male ones—who walked a red carpet was asked whether they were feminists. References to Lena Dunham and Leaning In were suddenly cropping up in everything from gossip columns to in-flight magazines. The increasing presence of transgender women in mainstream pop culture—Laverne Cox, Janet Mock, the Amazon series Transparent—offered new opportunities to talk about gender as a limiting social construct. Cosmopolitan, the bible of man-pleasing sex tips, began embracing more explicitly political writers and subjects, though it will still teach you "40 Ways to Blow His Mind." Feminism, so long dismissed as the realm of the angry, the cynical, the man-hating, and the off-puttingly hairy, was officially a thing. It was hot. And, perhaps most important, it was sellable.

blu and red spy designs!!!! theyre sort of ocs but also sort of redesigns? idk. anyways i love them. french ppl face close ups under the cut + extra details
blu spy is a nonbinary lesbian, she uses she/they, and shes french/nigerian. red spy is a bisexual trans woman, who uses she/her, and shes french/catalan. in my personal headcanon, they met in the same charter school in france, so they know each other somewhat well. outside of fighting and stuff, they probably gossip to each other about their teams lol
