As some of you already know, I missed a month of internet. Luckily I came back in time for the “Flawless” remix. Who knows what I would have done had I missed that. Possibly never have gone without the internet again by any means possible. I’m mostly concerned no one texted me about a BIG INTERNET THING because I’m sure there were several and I might never understand their true magnitude. I’m happy to be back and I’ve already been captivated by several internet happenings. It’s a beautiful place we have here. Have you heard Chance the Rapper’s version of the Arthur theme song? It’s important that you listen to that.

Also, I’m thinking about growing out my hair and I’ve started a photo series titled “The Growth.” I keep telling everyone because accountability but I actually think that I might get two months in and decide that how I have my hair now is the good life and cut it again? Who knows?! We can’t all be Carmen Rios is what I’m saying.
A few things about how I internet are different now… I’m easing my way back into Tumblr after a long hiatus. I’m not as into Twitter because I’m a narcissist and my favorite thing about Twitter is probably me. Facebook is now overcome with videos that play automatically in your feed and that’s turned out to be a real time suck because I first watch it without sound to verify that it is indeed worthy of my time THEN I rewatch it with sound. I clearly can’t be left to my own devices when it comes to catching up on things which is where y’all come in. What have been the highlights of the interweb for the past month? Best articles, favorite tweets, bothersome yet fascinating YouTube videos, your newest .gifs? Lemme see ’em! And what the heck have you weirdos been up to? Do you have a new haircut, a new t-shirt, a new boo piece? I hate answering a question like this but I love asking it because I’m a hypocrite: what are the three best things that happened to you over the past month?
