Welcome to AA - Accountability Anonymous!

Join us to talk about the real things we go through privately and the things we’d rather chew denim than share in public.

    We have No Role Modelz, word to J. Cole

Between aunties who culturally don't seem to get it, and everyone else just being "basic" our toxic submitter fears they'll never have luck in finding people to look up to in their adult years. Do we think they're being harsh or can you relate?
