Mahershala Ali’s career is on some rocket fuel shit. His agent must start every morning by jumping out of bed and doing the Hammer dance.

Agree, but I did laugh at the Aryan Mentos comment. And then I cried because this has always been reality.

“I didn’t realize I’m not allowed to touch you.” Well, we call that bad home training, because you should have learned to keep your hands to yourself when you were a toddler.

Kayyyyyyyyleeeeeeeeeeee Mackadoodles is Privileged and Racist White Lady Version 1.0. During election season, she accused Van Jones of yelling at her during one of their panels. Van Jones is no Charles Blow. I respect Van Jones but sometimes he is a little too restrained for my taste. So for her to accuse Jones of…

lol

I will, but first I need you to learn the difference between ‘then’ and ‘than.’

To be fair, he’s only getting an early start because his impeachment will inevitably slow things down, re: campaigning.

😝 we needed it this morning! I watching cnn while getting ready and Jim Jordan of Ohio was on trying to say they would handle Flynn investigation like Benghazi. Suuure okkkkkkkk.

...........................Adele is a good singer. She is not a good technical singer and her bridges are shit. Also, she doesn’t have a wide vocal range (only 3 octaves compared to Beyonce’s 4).

Incompetent piece of shit cop whining about “I have to live with this for the rest of my life”. Well bitch so do the families of the innocent people you murdered. On top of having their loved ones senselessly taken away, they won’t even see justice served AND have to deal with a lawsuit for some bullshit “emotional…
