– Bots, Birthdays, and Black Joy 🌈🤖🎉
This week on The Shade Parade, Viki Villainess and Ari Kiki are back to shake tables, flip wigs, and snatch edges, because honey, there’s A LOT going on.
🧠 First up, we ask the important question: Why does AI always sound like a passive-aggressive white man? Seriously, who programmed this microaggression machine? #WhiteManInTheMachine
🌈 We give you a final Pride Month recap, share our Juneteenth celebration plans, and reflect on the power of Black Queer joy in the face of political nonsense. #Juneteenth2025 #BlackAndProud
🎂 Meanwhile, the Orange Dictator turned 79 and even his birthday flopped harder than his presidency. No one showed up, the cake was dry, and WW3 is apparently trending. Yay! 🙃 #TrumpFlop #WW3
🎥 The girls are gagged because Noah’s Arc: The Movie premieres June 20th and WE 👏 WILL 👏 BE 👏 WATCHING! Your faves are back, and the drama is moist! #NoahsArcTheMovie
👀 Tyler Perry finds himself caught up in a scandal with a male actor, and you know we’ve got thoughts, speculation, and shady commentary for days. #TylerPerryTea
💃 Plus a special visit from Myster E Mel Kiki and their partner Kay brings even more energy into the studio. It’s giving: chaotic good with a twist of tequila.
🚨 And of course, we talk about the horrendous ICE raids still devastating immigrant communities, and the rising wave of No Kings protests demanding real change.
Tune in for laughs, truth, celebration, and all the side-eyes you can handle. It’s messy. It’s magical. It’s The Shade Parade.
