As if her public declaration regarding needing a special somebody wasn’t enough, today she followed up with a confession that she enjoys the world’s best processed food product, string cheese:
Hangin w/ @lvinnecour in village. Eatin string cheese. She makes me smile mucho. ;)
WAIT DON’T CHANGE YOUR PANTS YET. I have some photographs which I feel will be useful as you sit at home pondering your qualifications for boo-dom. If you’d like to win honorary Boo’dom, I invite you to write a haiku for Samira Wiley in the comments or otherwise express your feelings. Just remember that there’s already a Big Boo and a Little Boo, which means you’ll have to be Medium Boo.

my computer just lost a very important project file literal SECONDS before i was about to finish with it, and i was really considering throwing it out the window, but then this decided to grace my screen with its presence.
so thank you for saving me from a very rash decision.
I made a follow-up post to this last night, but apparently it didn’t go through (my ISP is garbage), but I was SO UPSET that I spelled her name wrong! I knew it was Samira, but the URL tricked me when I was writing this, and I second-guessed myself. *sob*
I’m currently watching OITNB through for the second time, just for more Poussey. I realllyyyy hope she has even more screen time next season because her face is wonderful.
Am I the only one completely lost w/r/t what’s on her chest in that black and white selfie? Swear I’ve spent the last 10 minutes staring at that pic, and not just because of her eyes ashdjglk
She did post that one thing on Instagram that was picture of a CD titled ‘to eat girls out to’ (or words to that effect) but aside from that, nothing haha

this is the most important post in the history of the internet.
thank you i feel exactly the same way
Ummm…just take it all, Poussey.
Welp. I’m in love. Again.
Does she fit the qualifications to be in the autostraddle queer hot 100? Cause if so, I expect her to do very well next spring.
Of course, Kate Moennig has never actually come out to the best of my knowledge and she’s always on it. lol

Nothing makes me smile
Like string-cheese makes me smile, BUT
Samira Wiley.
And sequel:
Nothing brings me bliss
Like writing bad haikus, BUT
Samira Wiley.

wooow, I need to sign up for Netflix asap.
Babe, I’d speak in verse
Ten million times a day if
it would keep you warm.
(“Warm,” in this case, is a metaphor.)
Ok, stopping now with the compulsive poetry writing…
I’m in Europe so
Don’t stand much chance here, oh well
Maybe Scary Spice?
I’m currently watching OITNB through for the second time, just for more Poussey. I realllyyyy hope she has even more screen time next season because her face is wonderful.
And now I’m finally glad I got out of bed today. Morning made.

Can’t haiku, too busy swooning. swooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon.
I’m going to have to get instagram so I can look at her and the adorable cast pictures all the damn time!
This post is everything. I’m just going to sob. HOW DOES HER FACE WORK?
But do we know if she likes the ladies?
She did post that one thing on Instagram that was picture of a CD titled ‘to eat girls out to’ (or words to that effect) but aside from that, nothing haha
I hate to be that person (because I totally assumed she was into women at first) but apparently she has a husband. So yeah, sorry.
that guy people think she’s married to is just her friend, they’re not married. he has a girlfriend: http://instagram.com/p/ekTWAqsVWx/
