shade-y

racism by way of continuing to work on mostly or all-White teams; particularly relevant to creative & casting teams

"let me know if they're being shade-y at auditions for Beauty and the Beast... they better not use "but they were French" as an excuse to only call back the White girls!"

"Psh, they really said "sassy best friend from across the tracks" in the character breakdown. Shade-y."

Shade Shaffer

A kid that always wears Mr. Beast merch and is relatively quiet unless it's towards his friends.

Shade Shaffer is pretty cool!

Really? He doesn't talk much.
That's just because you don't know him.

no shade no shame

a phrase used to indicate that a person's actions are nothing to be ashamed of. Used in a reassuring manner towards someone else, or as a statement to justify one's own actions.

Not to be confused with 'no tea no shade,' which usually precedes a subtle insult, 'no shade no shame' is a genuine statement of solidarity with another person's actions, or unapologetic pride in one's own actions.

You workin the pole to feed your three kids? Keep doin you honey, no shade no shame!

I went to the All-you-can-eat Buffet and I brought my own foil paper and fixed myself a to-go plate! No shade no shame!

Love You Down No Shade

Love you Down no shade as an expression, can be understood from the expression, “throwing shade” which means publicly denouncing an acquaintance or a friend. Hence, no shade means “no offense meant for what I said.” Whilst the phrase “love you down” still showing admiration/empathy to that someone/person.

“Kiara, you could’ve did better on the exam. Love you down no shade.”

stunta shades

the pair of glass being worn when someone is walking with confidence

When 6 p.m. arrived, I looked out my office window and saw my boss rocking his Oakley stunta shades as he strolled to his red Mercedes and drove off, ready to start his vacation.
