Hey hey. I'm Sasha.
Digital storyteller,
Photographic narrator,
Hogwarts alum.
In real life, I write things. I speak fluent sarcasm. I'm unintentionally funny. My favorite thing is food. Guac is life. I'm a fountain of the most random information. I'm pretty, only because it's weird to call oneself beautiful. I'm weird in all the good ways. I live in the greatest city on Earth. I was Sasha before Beyonce was schizophrenic.
My life is stranger than fiction. But please, don't take my word for it.
My pen is mightier than my sword.

musings
Truth is, I'm not innocent. I'm just an abstinent fireplace that doesn't wanna feel the fire kindled between her legs anymore so don't mind the ashes. They're just evidence of how brightly I can glow and I wanna glow hard like one dim star on an otherwise starless night that shines just to prove its fidelity.
Folks, I got something on my mind and I'm gonna try really hard to say it without ranting because y'all know I'm good for it.
So I'm a Beyonce fan. Back in the day, I was a Destiny's Child fan (until I realized that being one was pretty much being the other. No shade, tho) and I've always loved her as an artist. Let me make myself clear. I am not a Beyonce stan but I will stan for her occasionally. This happens to be one of those times.
So I was surfing the interwebs earlier and decided to go watch her Superbowl halftime performance on YouTube. If you haven't seen it yet, shame on you! Also, today's your lucky day :)
So it took me a few tries to find the full version of this but I noticed something on every link I clicked on. The vast majority of the comments were things like "she's lip syncing again" or "she's such a slut" or "stupid illuminati" or even "fake baby haver." Um, what?? Ok listen, besides the fact the Beyonce is paid out the ass and can buy all of these people five times over if she wanted to AND she has her whole army of stans to defend her honor or whatever, I can't not say anything for the simple fact that stupid people bother me.
1. She so obviously wasn't lip syncing at the Superbowl. She did it at the Inauguration, not because she can't sing but because she wasn't well rehearsed. It's the freaking Presidential Inauguration. It's a lot of pressure. I'd be afraid of messing up too. Now all of a sudden, she lip syncs everything? So she's been lip syncing since '98 is what you're telling me? Oh, oh iight. Retard.
2. She's a slut. See, here's my thing. I don't know Beyonce Knowles Carter from a hole in the ground. She could totally be a slut. TOTALLY! But let's just judge by what we know, shall we? She got married ONCE and she's still married to that same person. Before she got married, we weren't reading her sexual exploits with a new man every other week in magazines (I'm looking at you Taylor Swift). An entire four years after she got married, she had a baby. I repeat, AFTER she got married. Yeahh, if that doesn't scream "slut" I don't know what does.
3. Illuminati. Umm, yea, I'm not gonna pretend to be an expert of conspiracy theories and what not. Maybe she is, maybe she isn't. I just don't really see how it relates to her being talented. Because Illuminati or not-i (see what I did there?) she IS talented.
4. So...people just having fake babies now? Word? So, again, I won't pretend to know everything about the little mystery that is Blue Ivy. But I'll say this much: She looks a helluva lot like her mama. Just saying.
I just don't understand why there are actually people that take the time out of their day to really hate on this woman. Especially when she stay shitting on them. The woman has 17 Grammys, your opinion is irrelevant, bro.
But seriously though, who says "I'mma go write some mean shit about Beyonce on all her YouTube videos today"? Where's the logic in that? Why not spend that time on a nice healthy hobby? Why not take up knitting or something? I'm just saying. If you don't like her, I can't knock you for that. There are lots of musical artists I like and don't like and I have my reasons. But the senseless hate is just ridiculous. And you are out of your mind if you could watch that and say King Bey didn't kill that shit. Because she slayed it. Had people who don't even know what football is, watching the Superbowl. Shut the lights out on 'em and all. Say what you want, but she is bad!
However, the real highlight of the night for me was not King Bey's epic performance (shocker!) but it was that epic 109 yard kickoff return by Jacoby Jones. That shit was beautiful, man. I'm just saying. But props to Bey tho.
