Why they feelin' The Sting today:

Y'all may remember today's flambéd h0e as my "Biological Dad #3," a.k.a. A Real Treat 🍪😋

He’s a YT-presenting Black dude who exists as a real-life Richie Rich, Ferris Bueller, & Doogie Howser rolled into one 🤑

Dad is cute to me; he has this impish quality about him where the glint in his eye divulges the mischievous fun he’s about to stir up 😈🪄

...Though I *have* heard him described as looking a lot like Felonious Gru from Despicable Me LOL.

Bio Dad #3 was a ridiculously young parent at the time of my birth; we’re only about 15 years apart. I still remember attending high school & then college-level classes with Dad when I was coming up 👶🏾📚

Listening to Dad explain his/our lives & existence as a result of our ancestors' devastating genetic experimentation—to audiences in the tens of thousands, no less—helped me form *my own* voice in addressing the matter 🧪🧬🗣

Hearing Dad’s testimonials also helped reframe my worldview of our complicated family situation: If Bio Dad #3 can survive n' thrive despite the madness, why can’t I? 🦅

To this day, Dad *STAYS* hyping a sista up, knowing how rough I had it growing up with my kind of surrogate mom plus 11 *literal* MF-ing daddies; for that, I’m *eternally* grateful 😅🙏🏾

It’s kinda like having my own personal “Thirstiest YT-Presenting N!99@ on Earth” in my back pocket LOL 😍

Bio Dad #3’s larger-than-life aura & King of the Jungle-like temper is downright scary to some, but he’s an intensely loyal person who will do literally anything (& anyone 😉) for select members of his *very* large family. 

Dad’s stealthy moves through the communities he finds himself in even have some comparing him to the one-and-only B@tm@n 🦇🤫🖖🏾  

Letting y’all know right now that Dad does *absolutely nothing* to dispel this myth. 

He’s the type to wear a full-length cape on a Wednesday afternoon trip to the grocery store, “just because” 😆🤦🏾‍♀️  

Anyways, I’ll always have the deepest love & reverence for Bio Dad #3’s goofball a$$. He’s literally been there & shown up for me consistently since the moment I was born…

THAT type of bond is unshakable 🔗✨💜
