Welcome to Litsy!

My oat milk latte didn't seem to come with espresso today 😂. So pale!

Hughes wrote a column in a Chicago newspaper of stories about Jesse Semple, a Black Harlemite in 1910-1920 people called him Simple. He is a drinking, womanizer who waxes poetic about life in America. Overall I thought it was good for the vibe and place in time but Simple was so annoying it took me a month to read b/c I just didn't want to hang with him

Reading this feels like listening to Curtis during the NYC mayor debates?
