why can’t black women have a romance holy shit. every person who hates sydcarmy is talking about some “why can’t men and women ever just be friends” like that’s not all we’ve been allocated for decades. i understand that a lot of women particularly 👋🏻 women want stories that don’t revolve around romance, and hey i like those stories too! BUT black women have not had the same oppurtunities to just be love interests in the same way y’all have. We’ve been relocated to undesirable best friend roles or oversexualized booty calls. Y’all swear we have so much representation and yet can only name like 10 shows spanning over DECADES to prove us wrong like if there’s so much romantic content with black women as leads why the fuck are you talking about the flash and the walking dead?
and then we have the marcus and sydney brigade. the ONLY reason y’all want marcus and sydney together is cause they both black, they have zero chemistry. prove to me otherwise, quickly. I understand that people are tired of seeing interracial relationships (which is not really a problem but that’s a post for another day 😒 y’all swear that “the media” is trying to trick black women into marrying out or something stupid like that when we all know black women marry in their race more than any other demographic. imma just say black women should go where they are loved and fuck the noise) but y’all do this with nearly every show. Pairing characters together cause they’re the same race even though they have nothing in common. Nonblack people love doing this which i know why but again not the post.
But what REALLY pisses me off is calling Chefs Kiss a mentor/mentee relationship and then proceeding to ship sydney and MARCUS???
like you can’t be serious. carmy so clearly sees syd as his equal proven by the fact he wants to revamp his BUSINESS, his LIVELIHOOD with her. someone he’s known the least amount of time.
We’ve discussed this before but we know why Jeremy is probably wary about romance because of how hypersexual his previous job was and i get that, but I have yet to see a sydcarmy fan who wants them rawdogging on the kitchen floor. Idk it’s strange the way this show is edited and the music choices, and the script is written if they intended to go no romance for them. I’m really interested to see what their dynamic is like next season if they’re going to change it moving forward to dissuade fans from shipping by separating the two(like stucky vibes) it won’t work but that’ll be very annoying.
The WORST thing the show runners could do is insert a new love interest, that would piss me off to no end and i would stop watching the show. In the latest article they said(writer or show runner don’t remember) they wanted a show with no romance plot so they better fucking stick to it. I don’t want carmy to get to a later season and they’ve introduced a palm colored love interest for him. i swear to god i will turn the show off.
Now I personally will continue to ship them i’ve done so with other ships with far less, but that doesn’t mean i’m not a little annoyed. I hope they stick to their word if that’s the case.
ALSO we need more black women as romantic leads so go read the brown sister novels (chloe brown, dani brown, and eve brown) and hype them up so we can get movies( or in a perfect world a TV SERIES 🤭) based on them
TLDR: it’s dumb to hate sydcarmy cause you personally hate interracial relationships, if they mean no romance they should do no romance, that article was dumb and didn’t need to come out when we’ve already heard from both lead actors they don’t like the ship. we got it the first time. also read the brown sisters and spread the word so we can get a tv show about them thanks.

OC HALLOWEEN CHALLENGE 2023 ; day twenty-seven - all politics is a personality cult now
When Luke betrays the camp for Kronos, the others aren’t sure what to expect. They don’t know what to expect when others start joining, and Annabeth especially is hurt when Chloe Brown joins the ranks. But she loves Luke, and the message of Kronos is right, so why wouldn’t she? It’s not a cult, just doing what’s right, isn’t it? Kronos knows what he’s talking about

as someone who is still slogging through the early stages of a fibro diagnosis and trying to understand my pain and symptoms, it was mega cool to see a main character who is sick like me. Get a Life, Chloe Brown made me feel very seen.

Get a life, Chloe Brown (The Brown Sisters, #1) by Talia Hibbert
Synopsis
This book follows the life, or lack thereof, of a chronically ill Chloe Brown. She is in her mid twenties, and after her life literally flashes before her eyes, she decides she wants to live more. She creates a list of what she wants to accomplish, and crosses the first one off by moving out. Her superintendent, Redford, seems to hate her. She seems not to have a liking to him either.…

So I listened to the audio book for Get A Life, Chloe Brown, and I LOVED it. Fake dating? Enemies to lovers? Jamaican grandparent? I eat that shit up! I might listen to the whole series.

i try not to read into everything but also my brain is my brain and i will read into everything…do y’all not find it weird that the majority of peoples favorite brown sister is dani and she’s also the only one who isn’t canonically disabled 🫤…
to be CLEAR since i know people like to read words that aren’t there, you can have dani as your favorite, she’s an amazing character with many likeable traits i just think it’s interesting

So many municipal elections are happening in the GTA (Greater Toronto Area for those who don’t know), and I just saw a tiktok video of a mayoral candidate in Toronto named Chloe Brown. She is so passionate and well-spoken and intelligent, and although I cannot vote in that election as I don’t live in Toronto, I think it’s important to spread awareness about this.
Please check out this video if you are voting in Toronto and research candidates before attending the election.
