the short version. (mention of knives) 

it's a thing some black women learned to do to get attention while they're talking, because they are so frequently talked over

"ratchet", unlike what many will tell you, comes from the Jamaican culture of carrying "ratchet knives" (Okapi brand folding knives) for self-defence and general purpose. "ratchet" as an adjective describes people in poor circumstances (with a high need for self-defense)

My boyfriend just called an After Eight "too minty." Too minty?!? I'm still trying to process the concept.

My new phone's camera is really good. Now all I have to do is leave the apartment and find something to photograph
