That was my thinking too. And it hurt me deep inside reading that last part about it being a minute he could have been happy. 26 years locked up has given him more than enough time to be angry and he probably has been a number of times but he’s finally free. Just... Damn

“I can’t be angry,” Counts said or his accuser, who remains unnamed.“If I waste a minute being angry it’s a waste of time. That’s a minute I could have been happy.”

We will need to see a disclaimer to explicitly note all white people are included in those specific instances obviously:)

My family used to host a lot of barbecues when I was growing up and as the oldest of 3 I also ended up doing the majority of the running/cleaning. I used to make signs and it really does help.

Jesus, the interviewer is a little much at times. “BUT DON’T YOU FEEL LIKE A STRIPPER?? DOESN’T YOUR HUSBAND GET MAAAD???” Settle down, everything’s fine.

I know they’re constantly scraping the bottom of the barrel of humanity when they hire cops, but this is fucking ridiculous.

This kerfluffle went down because a white neighbor took it upon herself to call said law enforcements on the friends, allegedly because they didn’t “wave to her”

Why does it have to smell bad? it hopefully has a better chance of smelling good

I used to be a child abuse investigator. A hokey story like that, blaming a 2 year old for those injuries would not only not be believed, but create a very bad attitude in the investigators/cops/ prosecutor - everybody. Better not to have an explanation at all than a bogus one blaming a child obviously too young to do…

I have to admit that I am not surprised either 😞

Actually, all aesthetics aside, she’s mistaken. The hair actually grows there for the purpose of hygiene, to guard the interior against bacteria. https://www.cosmopolitan.com/uk/body/health/news/a44439/shaving-pubic-hair-hygienic/

I absolutely abhor when a guy makes a woman’s shining moment about himself — and to do it in the name of “love” is even more loathsome. Who cares about her career when your love is the real prize, right, guy? UGH. Like that guy who interrupted his GF’s presentation of her work on the Today Show to propose!…

Notices a distinct lack of smokey eye shadow.

No. Kanye at this point does not get my sympathy, my empathy, my beef patty. PJ’s recent piece best sums up how I feel about Kanye West. Fuck that negro Kanye with the passion of 12,ooo slaves! Equivocating think pieces like this reminds me of all the people who are trying to humanize or normalize Trump’s pathology.…

So much of the current discourse revolves around people simply wanting to say whatever they want to say without push back. And our current culture puts idiots, charlatans and hustlers on level playing ground with scholars, journalist and people who actually know what the fuck they’re talking about.

Kanye: “I didn’t want ya’ll calling me fat”

One of my favorite Colbert Show bits was his insistence that he literally did not see skin color. He’d say “Now, people tell me you’re African-American but I don’t see skin color. Can you confirm that?” Always cracked me up.

The solution to make racism go away is for black folk to just stop recognizing that we are black.

In my opinion, the restaurant break-up is a manipulative way to try and force the other the other person to behave in a polite manner because you think they won’t make a scene in public.
