And of course in Connecticut, it’s “doctor”. They want no less than a professional in the richest state in the union.

Beating a kid repeatedly is no guarantee that they’ll obey or respect their parents. I mean, if it truly worked, you’d only have to beat someone once, right? I’d wager most beatings are some control freak shit that the parents are trying to flex on their children when they feel powerless in other areas of their…

TV Themes? Such opportunities missed, especially from the 70s: That’s My Mama. Baby I’m Back. One Day at a Time. Theme from S.W.A.T. Chico and The Man. Barretta. The Rookies. Ironside. What’s Happening. Welcome Back, Kotter. The Love Boat. At least you have Barney Miller in there. I’ve given up on trying to figure out…

I found out yesterday that he wrote my jam from when I was 5 back in the 70s (and I think it’s him singing with Gladys at the beginning and the very end). I’m sure Gladys is also in her feelings right now. Rest In Power, Sir.

“Oh, but we were drunk!”

I went to England for Christmas 2018, after they got engaged. Many, many people there are racist af. Yet, engagement tat was EVERY-DAMN-WHERE: tea towels, magnets, potholders, plates, teacups, saucers, etc., etc., etc. For racists, they sure aren’t above making a pound on a black woman marrying into the Firm, and…

Unca Charlie Wilson. Some GenX white people may have heard vaguely about The Gap Band, but they don’t know Unca Charlie.

And that those people you know like you enough to want to help you. You’d better show you’re ready—and you’d better be fucking charming!

I’ll bet Whitney will get in. She has to. She’s Whitney.

In vino veritas, indeed.

Yes, it does.

I will never get sick of “One Nation Under a Groove”. Never.

Went for “What?!? NO GRAVY!?!?” Got “What?!? NO GRAVY!?!?”. My fave LT period is from ~1947-1958.

“I don’t have to sell my soul. He’s already in me. I don’t need to sell my soul. He’s already in me. I want to be adored...”

Absolutely not an equivalent to the N-word, and Cuomo needs to back away.

The great Michael Twitty served up a few words for them
