I do too, but I don’t fault the ones who slacked off a bit and their luck (or whatever you want to call it). There were always be people who just happened to get lucky despite themselves so I don’t spend much time railing against the universe. I just hope my time comes around someday, but if it doesn’t, at least I

It’ll be interesting to see what this class does with its freedom from the shackles of educational debt. A study to see what they were able to accomplish since they can now think about building a future instead of paying off an education. Congratulations, all around for graduating and winning a mini-lottery.

So, like, on the one hand, that’s a very kind gesture on behalf of all those students. Getting a huge start in life with no debt like that is absolutely insane, and I don’t fault them in the slightest for taking this opportunity. I’m very, very jealous.

Baller morghulis.

Shonda West recently talked about Black women’s reluctance to toot their own horns or proclaim victory. I wish Monique had assumed the same know-it-all, “lemme school you on some thangs” posture that he did and let him have it: Negro, you don’t OWN nothing! You didn’t negotiate some unprecedented contract giving you

“This ain’t the black man’s game, this ain’t the white man’s game, it’s the money game.”

“We do not celebrate what appears to be someone else’s demise,” she said, per Baller Alert. “We do not stand and applaud and say, ‘Yeah, look what’s happening.’ ‘That’s what you get.’ That’s not where we’re coming from. That’s not a stance we’ve ever taken,” she said.

Geez, from your comments it seems like you know a bunch of irredeemable people who never change or develop and tend to act completely randomly without reflection or context. That’s pretty bleak. You should probably start looking for a new group of people...

But NO Unsullied would or could ever do this, and if they did they would be immediately deposed as a leader because by their philosophy (brainwashed since early childhood) you cannot fight or lead if you have sexual urges.

Yeah, maybe she did feel that way. I’d argue she’s a damn fool for feeling “wronged” by the peasants for this but that’s neither here nor there.

I’d argue the show had good representation, but I agree it sort of ended once they got to Westeros. That’s true. They also did my man Areo Hotah rotten when they killed him off; that guy deserved better, he was supposed to be the greatest warrior in Westeros, and they killed him before he even used his axe. He should

I don’t recall seeing any Unsullied clearly killing civilians. Northmen and Dothraki, yeah, but in my mind the Unsullied are so single-minded in focus that the thought of killing unarmed non-combatants doesn’t even occur to them.

Succession is Billions for dummies

Dumbest line of the whole thing was the typically ineffectual Jon telling a woman who almost got raped, Go find somewhere to hide!,” as the city was falling down around them.

The Unsullied are brainwashed and trained to obey unconditionally, and even when granted his freedom, Grey Worm chose to stand by Daenerys. Combine the psychological damage he grew up through, the loss of his one love, and his queen deciding to attack, and it makes perfect sense, optics be damned.

At least Sallador is

I’m not paying for it. Neither should any other companies. The cost of the goods donated for review is perfectly adequate compensation for the average reviewer — aka a person with a hobby who has a couple thousand social media followers — or does free shit not matter anymore?

Im also in a marketing/PR position and totally agree. My best friend was recently let go from a sorta well know real estate company because the CEO felt like they didn’t need to have a PR team or marketing professional - because word of mouth and facebook ads is all they need.

I thought he just propositioned Basinger and then they had quiet, polite sex. I like my version better.

Since Gene Simmons is a fucking douchenozzle, here some of the things women have said about Tom Petty:
