"And smiles to go before I weep"

on this iconic day in oakland I walked out of a yt ass comedy show and roamed the streets only to be divinely stopped by an uncle named lil Tyson who told me god sent him to share some music with me

you saw the best in me - Marvin sapp

life - kc & jojo

we walked through downtown Oakland all night talking about his life on the streets, our love for our mamas (his Yolanda/my Saada), our near death experiences, and love for music and god

he was so loved by the block n telling ppl he was my bodyguard all night and honestly i wouldn’t have been able to be smoking and vibing so safely with out him so he was right

people were looking at me tryna help me cause you could tell he was a lil drunk but I genuinely had no worries and felt good that he got to have such a pretty lil thing taking care of him + whenever he did try to get a little too close I’d just call him uncle and he’d remember the dynamic we was on lol

my bnb host was always so curious that I’d leave the house with out a bunch of plans but my favourite way to travel is to just put the intention out to meet beautiful niggas and be inspired and wallahi something memorable always comes from it

I wanted to make a gifset ... but nothing would do this scene justice.

The game treats the Miis like they’re real people and makes zero mention ever that they are not, and only ever refers to them and their POV as if they are real and you are their caretaker! While playing this honestly messed with my head pretty badly at times and made me worry a lot on if I was hurting real people/not doing enough for real people while I was playing!

I cannot imagine how much worse this would be for someone who’s unmedicated, non-dormant, or experiencing breakthrough symptoms! Do please be careful and PLEASE remember to have a way to reality check yourself while playing the game!!!
