I remember watching the Martin Bashir documentary years ago, and when Bashir asked him about the molestation charges, Jackson was tremendously upset and quite convincing when he claimed his relationships with the kids were platonic. He was so messed up by his dad and never really had a childhood; I thought there was…

Provide free or at least affordable access to birth control and abortions to all women to reduce the number of unwanted pregnancies, and then provide a safety need like paid parental leave and affordable day care to help women who found themselves pregnant in less than ideal circumstances and want to keep the child.

I am not a fan of Cardi B, and have been dragged here for it, but I have to say, I relate so much to her with this. I am like 40% hip-hop, 30% rez, and 30% chola, and I’m also intelligent.

I need a where are they now segment for everyone else in that video. Also god, they actually danced to the whole damn song. That was long as shit. 

Well folks, I had a baby this week. 10 days before her due date, actually. Labor was extremely fast (less than 1.5 hours from start to finish) and we BARELY made it to the hospital (I seriously almost had her in the car), partly because we had to wait 20 min for my mother in law to show up from SIX BLOCKS away to…
