You know, I would have been more surprised if this wasn’t their strategy.

Was there any doubt that it would be the strategy? Over 100 women say Cosby told very similar stories of Cosby drugging and raping them but he was Cliff Huxtable and made funny noises like “bibbity-bobbity “ and “zip-zap-zork” so it obviously couldn’t be true.

The fun fact is most of those “active shooters” are not your usual “criminals” and most of them did purchase them legally or at least from a legal shop, not from some shady mafia connections.

I’m always just shocked at the stupidity. Social Media is not a private diary. Fine- you can be lacking in empathy, decency and a moral center. But, honey, please tell me as someone who is a nurse, such a practical, real world, boots on the ground kind of occupation, not in some celebrity/royalty/heiress bubble, that…

Given context of the poem, this is probably the least fucked use of blackface I’ll ever see. Still fucked sideways, backwards, and upside-down, but a little less so than if it had been some kind of ‘shits and giggles’ type of thing.

I only got about 15 min into the new Roseanne (interrupted by kids, plan to finish it; this is my life, don’t even have time for an ep of a sitcom in one go) and it was okay. It felt very comfortable in many ways (not the politics, obv.) and I laughed.

Saying you’re not homophobic or even genuinely not being homophobic doesn’t equal supporting gay rights. Plenty of people who “don’t have a problem with gay people” think same sex couples should be satisfied with civil unions and there’s nothing wrong with a bakery refusing to make them a cake.

In my heart, I think that couple had murdered Devonte and his sisters. They knew that their acts of abuse were going to be uncovered, so they killed the other siblings and themselves.

right. i love a good meme and a well-deserved roast, especially at the expense of howard. but i couldn’t even crack a smile at these.

That kind of fuckup means there were other people who weren’t students in on the whole thing and Hankerson just got his cut. Hence the 6 people who were fired today.

Children have become a luxury in America. They’re the modern equivalent of designer pure bred purse dogs. Only the wealthy can afford them and they punish poor women that have them for daring to aspire outside their class.

I don’t get this attitude of don’t take the kid out until they leave the table clean. I supervise my kids so they are not majorly disruptive to other customers - this is the criteria where you should not take the kids out (except maybe to a pizza place or fast food). Beyond this, if they make a mess I clean up the big…

Besides the obvious (apologize for the mess, tip a bit better) it would also be hugely helpful if you would take the kid out during off-peak hours.

Fast and Furious with giant robots. :)

Not treating Black kids like adults or property helps. Calling little boys “Lil’ Man” and worrying about Black girls being fast-tailed helps no one.And these kids have never had an analog childhood. Everything is on and connected to WiFi 24/7.

Actually, what we need is serious discussion in the Black community about mental health and get our folks to stop being dismissive of shit they don’t understand.

It’s almost trite to keep reiterating this point, but until America’s police forces repudiate the ideology that these streets are a warzone and that suspects are the enemy combatants things like this will continue to happen. Likewise, it’s absurd to expect that community relations between the police and the most…

It’s the very same people who say ‘why didn’t he just comply’ that are the first to say the ‘cops feared for their lives.’

So, liking a certain kind of music makes you “something”? SIGH, people and their stupidity make me sad.

Hard to understand the misanthropic instinct to try and stomp on a child’s joy because of what THEY don’t like. I don’t think she dragged them hard enough.
