Unless we're talking door crasher discounts on rent/mortgages/bill payments/student loans etc, I reject your Black Friday hype/hoopla.

✨ As a kid I wasn't allowed to dress up as anything scary/evil, so Halloween was an opportunity to dress up as something cool and/or fun. For me it's all about the creativity and it's even better if the costume has meaning behind it. So this year's costume? "#BlackGirlMagic". Looking forward to seeing how it all turns out. Gotta admit, I'm quite giddy about it. ✨ #CaShawnThompson #demandjoy #halloweencostume #staywoke #hashtagblackgirlmagic #diyhalloweencostume #boo

If you're in need of a costume idea: "Strange Fruit". Dress as a tree & hang pics of T.Martin, E.Garner, S.Bland etc from your limbs. What's your "Stay Woke" Halloween idea?

Just dropped off C&C. I've now got them versed in Kiss and Purple Reign and Let's Go Crazy. The kissy sound + a falsetto "kiiiisss" is our new handshake (we come up with one every birthday season.) We ate purple starfish shaped pancakes for breakfast and watched the Super Bowl and the muppets performances. I've given them as much of an education as their attention spans and my budget would allow. Now? Home to catch up on the Beyoncé hoopla.

Sibling day you say? 🤓#teamlittlesister #teamburke #teamward #heartcentre #whostheblacksheep #sideeyegamestrong #siblingday 📷: Steve Carty

Bouquets, brunches, besties, beaus, and balloons (not pictured). What a lovely day/new year's day it has been. 🙏🏾👊🏾☺️#happynewyear #gratitude

Running through the six with my woes, on the cold AF New Year's Day! (at Distillery District)

I'm trying to go the day with my phone turned off...but well...you know me.😏 Taking tons of photos to remember the goodness that's been the day so far but stopping in to express gratitude for your messages/texts/calls. 🙏🏾😘🙏🏾 #gratitude #happynewyear #thisissaturday (at The Distillery Historic District, Toronto, Ontario)

Rabbit rabbit rabbit. Happy new year! #tbt (📷: April 1983) #goodmorningSaturday #teamburke #teamward #familyphoto

Sad news this evening. My favourite neighbour Don Francks has passed away. He's a jazz artist and was always just the friendliest, hippest chillest guy. He was 84. Gah. He will be dearly missed. 😔 #donfrancks #ironbuffalo

1. Mood. (Lucy's face is EVERYTHING✊🏾👊🏾✊🏾) 2. IMHO - though it's not blatant and may not have been intentional...it's definitely a micro aggression worth some side eye. It's someone who gets paid big bucks to make marketing decisions saying out of the gazillion shots we've taken for this campaign, we'll choose the one that will drum up the most talk about it. It's marketing manipulation at best. 3. Question: have you seen the video? Is there another one that I don't know about? Why doesn't Lucy speak? Why didn't Ellen direct a question at her? Is there a video where Lucy speaks? https://youtu.be/gdxXBqdfWME #gapad #fixyourfacelucy #fixyourfaceleah #gapkids #gapgirls #lepetitcirque #misogynoir #patriciahillcollins #raceclassgender #whentherainbowisnotenough #whenyoudontwanttomakeitathingbutyouvegotsomanyquestions
