I really do not understand why mainstream / liberal networks continue to bend over backwards to court conservatives. Between this hot garbage and CNN continuing to place the most ludicrous conservative voices on Anderson Cooper 360... I hate to look at “trusted” news anymore.

That show sucked bigly.

I buy a lot of useless crap, and I genuinely don’t understand why someone would buy a shirt with a picture of Tupac that has Kylie’s (Kendall’s?) initials on it. Even if someone were a fan of the Kardashians, it makes no sense.

A friend commented to me that this was the first time she’d seen black millennial characters on TV in settings that weren’t cliche or sensational. She had joked before the show came out that she wanted to see someone microwaving a frozen burrito while black.

I AM HERE FOR THIS!

Some of them are affiliated with local church groups, as Gothamist writes, including Church at the Rock in Brooklyn, Grace Baptist Church in Woodlawn, and Bright Dawn Ministries in Brooklyn.

I agree, and I agree that it’s difficult to distinguish when those two things overlap. But I think the focus of the book was specifically about the ancient roots of female repression perpetuated by religious scripture. The use of religious scripture to enforce control over female bodies is one of the most ancient and…

They’re not. And yet not every performance piece that is released will be able to touch on all oppressed parties. Everything can’t be problematic.

Starz clearly intends getting as much out of the single book as they can for multiple seasons. All of the expansions and additions to minor characters like Bilquis, Salim, and Laura have been absolutely fantastic.

As a person with an autoimmune disease, I am not offended in any way shape or form and actually think this is a pretty good analogy. People need to sit the fuck down.

Ugh, I’m really getting sick of language being SO policed. Didn’t anyone with severe allergies also get upset at Lorde and force her to apologize? People die from allergies!

Could we get an edit on that headline and remove the word “captured”? She was a young girl, not an escaped convict or an animal that needed to be picked up somewhere. She was not captured. She was abducted. She was kidnapped and murdered.

I found out about this from my dad. After having dinner with him, he sent me and my sister a text saying he loves us and not to go anywhere alone for the next few days.

Seems like Rihanna is the best thing about most things.

My queen looks lush. A goddess really.

Hmm, I have no problem with talking about a fake dick. I think fake dicks are very funny and worth talking about, actually! My problem is when in doing so, you characterize attempted rape as “seduction.”

Being a Somali, there’s no such thing as “overhydration”. If there’s free water, I’ll drink it.

Yeah, I remember being thirsty all the time as a kid too. Water bottles weren’t really a thing yet. Adults need to remember that they are really in control of children- young kids can’t take care of their own very basic needs without adult help or permission. Maybe it’s a pain for adults, but it’s not fun for kids…

I remember being thirsty *all the time* as a kid. The teacher would line us up at the water fountain and chant “1 2 3 that’s enough for me” and it was NEVER ENOUGH. Also “leave some for the fishes”, fuck the fishes, I’m thirsty!

Here’s a Poot’s Totally Circumstantial Hot-Take:
