If you ask Marci Rodgers how she became a costume designer, her answer is simple: “God.”
Naw. I am older than Charlamagne and I’m a damn woman. This was never ok, even back then. I bet she woke up out of her drunken haze and felt angry and ashamed, but shoved that shit down for two reasons. 1- She’d invested a year in his ass and wanted to believe he loved her. 2- You know what’s the worst thing for a…
The associates at Home Depot are supposed to interact with me? I usually have to search half the store to find one in the first place.
“I shot a nigga in the face and rescued y’all lil’ bad asses from a kidnapping but you can’t remember to thaw out the chicken, huh?”
Our kids are not allowed to have childhoods. No laughter, no horseplay, no joy. None. Welcome to Continuous Traumatic Stress!
I made it to 1:13, but that’s mostly because my sound output was to a disconnected bluetooth speaker for the first 40 seconds or so.
Lawd, the first time I heard the term “problematic fave”...it hurts. Prince, though an amazing artist, became quite, if not homophobic, very non-hetero-intolerant, as a result of becoming a Jehovah’s Witness. I can’t say for sure which one it was, because a lot of the accounts of his thoughts on the subject were…
He was my dude, my nigga, my friend. The details of that night are mine to keep, a privacy I allow myself, even as I…
I think it would help if we start viewing “dieting” not so much as lessening what we eat, but changing what we eat. So saying, “I’m on a diet” discontinues being a stigma.
See my problem with saying stuff like this is it assumes we all got media training for when a traumatic scenario occurs. We don’t. He’s extremely young. He lost his brother, which in turn now sounds like he lost his anchor. If he flipped his fucking wig, on God, I think that’s ok, because since I don’t know him, I…
“As many people know, when you’re in law school, the coursework is extremely rigorous and it’s extremely difficult to maintain employment while you’re working and also our university prohibits it,” he added.
That’s not a joke. The New York Times reports that Murray Richman, the lawyer pictured below
Nope. Still trash.
FOR THE SAME REASON ICE WON’T SUBSTANTIALLY FINE AND JAIL COMPANIES WHO EXPLOIT UNDOCUMENTS WORKERS. I had to ask this to a Mormon who was getting her law degree after finishing missionary work in Honduras for a year. She had never even considered going after the people who directly benefit for this. To be White,…
Well, as a person in a secure relationship with someone who is not good at flirting, I’m going to say not cheating. If I meet a flirty person, I flirt back. He doesn’t because he can’t lol. I keep it very, very low key though. No touching. Nothing sexual. No wide-eyed, big-pupiled gazing eye contact. No whispers.
Long ago and far away we just stuck safety pins in our ears. I’m still alive. :)
Looking at the illustration for this post, my first thought: “not with those nails.”
Plus Letitia Wright was already cleverly taking down colonizers on Black Mirror before we even saw Black Panther. She been about that justice for black people life.
Loved the article, one thing I feel like we should talk about is how violent Killmonger was specifically towards black women. He was a revolutionary, true, but also a wanton Mysoginist. He killed his GF in cold blood, he choked out an elder, slit the throat of a Dora Milijae and his biggest diss to T’Challah was, i’m…
