They’re fine. I think the Kardashian angle might be clouding everything. But yeah. They’re fine. And certainly not the ugliest expensive pair of shoes I’ve seen in this series. I’d wear them if they were gifted to me, and if I had wealth I’d probably buy them. 

These are way better than the previous two or three Is This Shoe OK shoes, ergo, these shoes are ok.

The erasure of the rape case in the wake of Bryant’s death was gross and befuddling but... even if you feel that strongly about it, AND you think the crash was a good opportunity to make those feelings known... there were 8 other people that died in that crash. Since when did karma mean collateral damage? Who did

I think we can all agree that Kobe didn’t deserve to die

How depressing. But we still have to vote in massive numbers. You dont have to be in those republican state to vote against them. Especially Mitch the Moscow Bitch, Susan no lip Collins, Lindsey Come Out Closet already Graham, the senator from Tennessee, and any others yall can think of. Let’s vote out all republicans

Basically he picked her, can’t say anything about it because of NDAs... the only racist bone in her body is his.

Ugh, I just am so tired of stupid people who say,”I’m not perfect” when called out on the dumb, rude, hurtful shit they do! Can someone give them something else to say, please?!

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I've learned more on this site, than all my years in school. So much was just skipped over. I'm hoping to find some good books to help me fill the gaps (and correct what is flat out wrong) for my own kids. If anyone has any recommendations, please let me know!

Man the mailbag should be an epic shit show after this one. For the record Creedence Clearwater Revival were the original performers of Proud Mary. However the song’s author, John Fogerty, has said that Tina Turner did such a superior rendition that he is all too happy to say that the song is now hers

Growing up in a predominately white neighborhood with a predominately white school, this is completely accurate.

Kanye seems to be caught up in that “thinking the opposite of what people are used to means I’m thinking freely” mentality that most people grow out of in adolescence. That doesn’t make you a free thinker, just a contrarian. You’re still just as concerned with what other people think.

I hear Michael Rappaport will play his penis representing Kanye’s id.

White folks have already started in with the “complicated legacy” shit. Yes the same people that make excuses for all the rotten shit white folks do are choosing today to shit on Kobe. To all the white women and men trying this shit not today and on second thought not ever again after 11/8/2016. When you mother

I feel bad for everyone involved. Even Kobe. But yeah, dude raped a woman. Bet she wishes she could forget that happened.
