I hear you as well. But I personally won’t be up in arms if he chooses to display his racial pride by boycotting. I believe us all to possess the gifts of dichotomy, discernment and independent thought. Perhaps he can still honor Jesse Owens and his sacrifices while still telling mugs that he’s not here for their BS…

Perhaps. Or it could be that after all the racist bullshit that he had to endure to get to where he is in the first place, or the shit he had to deal with when he decided in his first Olympic outing that he wasn’t going to “be a good sport” to all those who were complicit in the BS, he’s asserting himself and not…

You are correct, the district is not in Chicago but would instead comprise “the Chicagoland area,” which would be those suburbs and exurbs in Cook Co. and close outlying areas. The 3rd district, where he will be the nominee, is wholly in Cook County, so the slaughter is still very real. However, that district has…

Exactly.

Chicagoan here. I concur. Republicans in Chicago-proper are rarer than four-horned “quadricorns.” He is literally lining up to get beat down.

There is a laugh so powerful trapped in my gut right now...It refuses to come out. I think I’m going to hemorrhage. Thank you for this. I love you.

As you should. You looked great!

Good on ya, Briana. For real. I am glad that you found something to help you burst through and feel more comfortable with yourself.

No, I concur. Those pumpkins were like concentrated sugar. You couldn’t cut them with peanuts or shit else like you could with candy corn. Those pumpkins were pure 100% Brazilian.

This. It is so difficult for some folks to understand this concept. This fool is literally governing to about 25 million assholes who seem to be stuck in a 1950s hyperloop.

When Ali was on old Arsenio Hall and they brought out Sugar Ray Leonard and a young Tyson, Arsenio asked him who could beat him out of the top boxers of the day and Ali said Tyson would. It was an awesome moment and an AWESOME interview:

True dat. I watched EVERY Tyson fight as a kid, from the Cus D’Amato days to the terrible end. At his height, he was such a friggin beast that he didn’t even need footwork. Once he got in, he was throwing straight concussion-makers. And he typically got in. 

“Sarge” reminds me particularly of the “I wanted to be a football player in high school, but I wasn’t fast enough or big enough to make the team and they all laughed at me. But I’m the fucking law, so who’s laughing now” type of officer I used to work with years ago in one of my former professional lives. Friggin…

After the non-womaning man gets shut down by an actively womaning woman for the nth time:

This is great. I’ve already pushed past 40, but I always knew that I was a late bloomer, even in the prime years (20s).

Hey Bruh...long-time reader, first time replier. Little Dicky Durbin is actually a high-ranking Dem from round my way (Illinois) and he rantolddat shortly after the meeting:

Word Up is not best/worst. This shit was the SHIT. I will defend it to the fucking teeth - Thunderdome style.

As you contemplate running for office, I want you to refer back to this as your “aha” moment of clarity - when you knew precisely what ailed this country and what you could do to make things better.

OH HELL YEAH!!! Please accept, Rhoda. PLEASE!!! Don’t tease me, Danielle. Don’t do it...not today Black Jesus! Girl, I can see it now; she will take the Root’s Negroedom to levels never before seen (Blacker than EVERY Sidney Poitier/Bill “The Rapist” Cosby joint every made, with some Mahogany AND original Sparkle…

Chile, YES! I’ve got Harry and William by about a decade and when I first saw them as adults I was feeling all pervy and shyte cause I’m like DAMN, DAMN, DAMN!!! Now I don’t feel so bad. Thanks, time!
