One of Them Days (dir. Lawrence Lamont).

Starring Keke Palmer and SZA as mismatched best friends and roommates struggling to get by in Los Angeles, this is the kind of silly throwback buddy comedy starring vehicle that has been sorely missed. There's also the fun ticking clock element where the duo's characters desperately need to make that month's rent money by the end of the day or face eviction. Thanks to some sparkling chemistry between our two leads and a sparkling debut acting turn by the musician SZA, the comedy zips by with a fun charm to all the shenanigans. It's easy enough toforgive some of the hokier contrived elements in the name of more efficient storytelling.

'One of Them Days' Takes a Familiar Store and Infuses it with Stong Characters

I have been around some of the neighborhoods featured in “One of Them Days” as they are not too far from where I live. They all seem to have a nice family vibe going on and are filled with all kinds of blue-collar workers who, like everyone else I know, are living paycheck to paycheck. I keep thinking a lot of people will look at these neighborhoods and apartment buildings as being very “ghetto,”…

[cconfusedkat]

(shaking hands, functioning on three iced coffees, not beta read we just die) (LIL BRO TREATING THIS LIKE AO3Anyways yeah i did not read anything i typed here a second time so my wording might Suck Major Kuss)

Hey chat! sorry my holiday depression unfortunately kicked in, i had a ,, relatively decent Eid (cuz i dont celebrate christmas) ...? so i hope everyone had a relatively better holiday than i did… 💦

My friends often tell me i look like my art and i kinda see it. Hooray! Meeting the artist! Except i took matters into my own hands of making my own collage because I Do Not Have Enough Storage Space For Any Other Editing App

Additional shitpost ❤️ the art I've been most proud of are not actually in here, really! I'm mainly proud of the fanart i made for the few smiling critters AU's aaaall the way back feb-march but. I guess the stuff i liked the most i did this year was probably for the one who wilts? Im trying to think of stuff earlier than that. I noticed i definitely had an improvement in art, and i learned i do have a preference of drawing certain ways now too lmao- the fun of art! I hope to improve more in 2025 :-)

Herm,, all jokes aside, im glad people like my art...?? I am not a very Secure artist myself (already taking me five minutes to type that out and consider myself as an artist) so im SHOCKED when people Actually like my things. My doodles. The sometimes rare occasion of real art i put out there. Like! Wow! Thats crazy

Id have to say the same for youtube- im currently at 456 subscribers 🥺❤️ that is huge to me,, i wouldnt have expected me posting for the first time in years on youtube would result to me getting this many subscribers? ? .???

Im very, VERY thankful for the people ive met this year through fandom and generally. Unfortunately—for the past few months—Ive hit a really low stump in my mental health that limits me from talking to people without getting super drained, even on social media i kinda struggle with being active again. I am thankful for the people that continue to stick around and know im the way that i am,, one day ill be mentally stronger and everyone is gonna see my growth as soon as i can ,, Actually leave my own home and hopefully start a new. I didnt really consider that until one of my friends shared its experiences with me and i GENUINELY realized i can run away and get better one day,, there is a light at the end of the tunnel,, there IS,, but not now. Not today. Not in a few months. Itll take me years to heal but 2025 and ongoing years as i get more freedom to do so,,

UHHHH UHHH. ASIDE FROM CHEESY RANTING OF HAVING HOPES FOR THE FUTURE, YAPYAPYAP- i got a drawing tablet (again another thing my friend inspired me for- technically two major things in a row it inspired me for- hope in the future and drawing BWAHAHA-) and uhhh. HmMMOOHHH YEAH I REUNITED MY MEOWMEOWS! HOORA🎊🎊🎊🎊

my 2025 goals are not just improvement in art,, but in hopes of getting a full time job (since my last full time UMM. did NOT work out well! How am i gonna learn to pay my taxes on my own dawg,) and trying to get a place of my own since i missed out on that two years ago (or one? One year ago? I DUNNO..!!!!) , therapy and trying to heal better compared to my terrible stumps of 2022-2024,, i dunno what else but. Maybe working on my social skills at some point 🗿🗿 a far fetched goal is moving out of state completely and also going on testosterone but that is farrrr from now </33

Thank you lot for following and keeping up with my goofiness i gen did not think an animanga nerd with a passion of indie and mascot horror games could reach 510 followers within one year HELPPP thats crazy

On less serious goals though i hope on watching more animes than reading manga in 2025 BWAHAHAGAHSAJD i read manga more and anime is Extremely Rare for me to watch but both jjk and Beastars have all ive been watching as of recent lol- trust i will be such a geek (girl Please that is NAWT something to look forward to) (YES IT IS. HAVE YOU NO WHIMSY?)

HBO max hates black and proud of it tv shows and that guy running Warner brothers discovery will go to hell

We were watching! "Rap Sh!t," created by Issa Rae, revolved around Shawna Clark (Aida Osman) and Mia Knight (KaMillion), long-time friends who embarked on a journey to form a rap duo, guided by their mentor and manager, Chastity (Jonica Booth). The series made its debut in July 2022 and concluded its run with the release of its 16th and final episode on December 21, 2023.

————————————————-

"Rap Sh!t" marked Issa Rae's third project developed for MAX, following her previous works "Insecure" and the reality television show "Sweet Life." Additionally, Rae served as the executive producer of "A Black Lady Sketch Show" through her production company, Hoorae Media. Unfortunately, both "Rap Sh!t" and "A Black Lady Sketch Show" faced cancellation.

————————————————-

The widespread cancellation of Black fan-favorite shows has disrupted the timeline. Social media users are now directing their concerns towards MAX, insinuating that these decisions are racially motivated and insensitive.

————————————————-

This sentiment is amplified by the fact that the series maintains an impressive 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, accompanied by ongoing acclaim and positive reviews. *Thoughts?* 👇🏽👇🏾📺

Issa Rae, Gabrielle Union, and Charles D. King to be Featured on New Chad Sander’s Podcast

 In October, Audible will gain a new podcast series entitled "Deposit: What Happens When Black People Get Rich, " And none other than Chad Sanders, author, and serial entrepreneur, will serve as host. Crucial Topics of Interest Issues of wealth and progress are crucial topics within the community. And Surely, given the context of this podcast, this medium will stimulate deep and meaningful conversation on those topics. "Deposit" will feature prominent and wealthy figures within the community sharing their invaluable experiences. And sources indicate Issa Rae, Charles D. King, and Gabrielle Union will be some of the first contributors.   Who is Chad Sanders?   Charles Sanders, the host of the new podcast series, is a successful businessman. He is no stranger to struggle. Rather he has worked his way to triumph.  In fact, he has worked diligently to find his voice and establish himself as a success in a world rife with inequity.  However, he has never held back his wealth of experience. Wonderfully, Sanders put his experiences on paper. And in 2021 his literary work entitled "Black Magic: What Leaders Learn from Trauma and Triumph" was published. His ethos for the work can be firmly summarized as Goodreads notes, "A defining look at Black Magic: resilience, creativity, and perseverance, forged in his experience navigating America as a Black man. " https://youtu.be/oRdAwqDkOog And graciously now, he is expanding his platform for a broader reach.    Sanders Podcast Guest: Issa Rae Issa Rae: Image Source: Getty Images   Issa Rae is known for blazing trails in Hollywood. There is no doubt that Rae embodies the spirit of what Nina Simone envisioned in her work,  "To be Young Gifted and Black."  Rae's path has led her to become an award-winning writer, director, and producer. And she uses her gifts to pour back into the community. According to sources, she has not only knocked down doors but continues to hold them open via HOORAE, her multi-media company. And as an extra boon, HOORAE has allowed Rae to expand her Executive Producer slate with the Emmy-award nominated A Black Lady Sketch Show, docuseries Sweet Life, and the HBOMax series, RAP SH*T, according to issarae.com.     Sanders Podcast Guest: Charles D. King   Charles D. King. Image Source: Variety King is also sharing the platform with Rae and Union to share his experiences, and rightly so. Charles D. King is a multi-media Titan with a heart for his community. He is the owner of a media conglomerate missioned as a bulwark in the community for people of color. According to Variety, "King’s businesses include film and TV studios, talent and influencer management divisions (M88 and UNCMMN, respectively), a branding and creative agency, and a venture-capital firm.” Additionally, King's work extends to magnifying voices of color through stories with a cultural impact, such as "Judas and The Black Messiah," "Fences," and "Just Mercy."  King's positioning as one of the top 500 Business leaders in entertainment, according to Variety, solidifies his position as a valued resource to listeners. Sanders Podcast Guest: Gabrielle Union Gabrielle Union. Image Source: Getty Images   Gabrielle Union will be the third professional rounding out the panelist.  And surely, she will serve as a worthy contributor. Gabrielle Union is an acclaimed actress. However, it is her diligence that has helped her ascend. From minor walk-on roles in "Family Matters" in the early 90s to more prolific roles in films like 2016, "Birth of Nations" Union earned her position. Now It is no secret that Union hasn’t always lived a “Life of Riley.” Regardless she remains grounded. And she now uses her growth and gains to empower others. According to IMDB,  the impactfulness of Union's activism has garnered her much respect. Reportedly the artist has even received praise from Oprah Winfrey for her activism and the passion she puts forth on the platforms available to her.  Cultural Treasure While the podcast is yet to air, it will be one not to be missed. Progress is like a staircase.  And sturdy staircases require a solid foundation built by contributors with a vested interest in heights of probable reach. Sander’s podcast stands to be a model within the community. and worthy of spotlighting. So, to discover what these enterprising professionals have to share, tune in to Sander’s eight-episode podcast series on its October 13th premiere. Written by: Renae Richardson Read the full article
