My only disappointment in this Black Panther soundtrack is that neither Janelle Monae or Erykah Badu were on it.

When he was announced as the half-time show’s performer, someone in these Kinja streets had suggested he bring Janet onstage and sit to the side/dance backup while she performed.

And to those saying JT couldn’t win either way, here’s a thought: He knew what his bitchass did to Prince while Prince was alive, and he didn’t have to be the only one up there. So if the NFL just had to give a tribute to Prince, bring someone in that Prince either liked or didn’t actually shade when he was alive.

I don’t know why your comment reminds me of this but it does:

I love that the sentiment of this is that women are doing something *wrong* by not eating like dudes, when actually, dudes are fucking gross. I eat junk food in private, where no one can hear how loud I crunch or watch me lick my fingers, because its gross when anyone does that.

This is so fucking ridiculous. Of course we eat lick our fingers and poor the crumbs down our gullets... we just do it in private shame the way that we’ve conditioned to do.

It’s around -30 this week in Alberta, so it’s entirely possible that if he did suffer some sort of medical event that he died of hypothermia as well ☹️

Yeah, you know, I think we can probably trust Hollywood, of all people, to present us with a healthy view of male-female sexual relationships.

I guess all will depend on whether or not the movie presents his behavior and healthy or not.

Never be in a movie called “Hobgoblins 2". LOL. There could not be a more fitting role for this woman.

But then shouldn’t she be showing up with a dress that says “Psych Meds are Brainwashing?”

It looks like her music is self published, but someone (probably the Church of Scientology) spends a hefty chunk of change on production. So, either the Grammy sends tickets to her “label” as a courtesy or the COS is paying her way.

“There’s no evidence Villa cares about any of this save what it means for her exposure.” I get that impression too.. you don’t get the sense that there’s a core set of beliefs.. you don’t even get a sense that she’s being contrarian for it’s own sake - you just worry about her and hope she gets a footing.

There are hundreds of thousands of high school choir kids sitting in school right now with more talent than she has. I made it through the first verse and chorus. She’s aggressively mediocre. Her “dancing” in the MAGA dress at the 15-second mark was giving me mom teas.

Pimento cheese. Because she’s trying for that edge but staying squarely in the church basement.

I mean, this is just one more example of women being shamed into accepting less from men. Oh, he drives a $50,000 car and rents a $4000 a month condo in a prime area of town but you’re suddenly a gold digger if you want him to gift you with nice things. Oh, he can’t be bothered to work an extra shift so your babies…

Yeah, it’s a fucked up mentality. Good enough to have fun with, maybe have a kid with, or you know she supports her Grandma or sibling, you eat half the food in the house and shit, pretty much treat the place like a hotel, but can’t chip in for shit. They get yelled at, and then they start screaming Black women are…

It’s one thing if that’s what the woman wants, do you, but it’s something totally different when people are telling you’re only worth a trinket that costs less than a night out at the movies and trying to shame you for wanting something with more thought and consideration behind it. No one would tell a man he needs to…

I judge the relationships, not the rings.

I chimed in on that discussion on Facebook and was basically told that, since I accepted an inexpensive ring, I must not value myself. My response was that a person could buy you a $500,000 ring and still not value you. The cost and quality of the ring aren’t necessarily the point. The point is that the person is…
