I’d like to think you knew without even thinking about it twice that that was going to happen, with major networks running after those sweet sweet football ratings when they’re losing their core audience demos to mobile streaming (and even still cable).

It’s time for Black America to boycott the NFL. We won’t, but it’s time.

No need for leaks, just bide your time. It’s not the first time a network has shit-canned an episode, and they always end up in the syndication package.

I’m a middle-aged white guy who works in campgrounds and has camped my whole life. I know this is anecdotal, but I have definitely noticed a rise in black visitors over the years. It’s probably just me being a moron who has fallen for a stereotype, but I get really happy when I see black children spending time

Being from the city my friends and I would always hangout “outside” but never ventured too far into “White people territory”. Later I have come to love fishing, hiking, running etc. But I do still realize the “Adventure Gap” for many minorities. This gap has become less societal where going too far into unfamiliar

Woo hoo! So glad you had that experience and hopefully some #blackboyjoy of your own!

you are the smart guy out there keeping us safe. phew.

We are reading her journal, so I understand the author was working within the limits of his chosen technique, but at a certain point in the book I think those limits were reached and it just was a frustrating exercise to get through it.

I’m just happy to see Jennifer Jason Leigh getting more work. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The book was unsatisfying to me because it actually never ventured into the horror part of the psychological horror. The main character was pretty much in denial throughout the book.

Watch Black Panther twice. Problem solved.

Still mad he was allowed to speak at Calstate Fullerton for the young Republican club. There was protests but not enough to shut it down. And it was on fucking Halloween.  

Good, stupid asshole racist troll. I’d also like to take this time to tell Carol Christ, Chancellor at Berkeley, FUCK YOU for allowing him on campus last year until we protested and it was cancelled.

Seriously, I always wonder where these people live that see so many people handing over food for hard drugs. Like, is this happening right outside your window? Are you the drug dealer? Are you just watching Fox news and taking their word for it?

My immediate thought was “What about food allergies?”. Also “What if they don’t have access to an appliance they’d need to cook the food with? What good is a box of pasta gonna do someone who doesn’t have a working stove?” With food stamps, people might not buy the kinds of foods you think they should be eating, but

How will they make sure the foods are fresh?

There is just so so much wrong with this plan.... Logistically, how are you going to ensure the right box gets to the right family? That it won’t get damaged, stolen, that animals won’t get to it? Are the contents of the boxes going to through the same FDA process to make sure they’re safe? Are they really?? How will

I worked in a grocery store through college (where I met Mr. Penguin). I remember the women on food stamps using every coupon, every rebate, every possible trick in the book to stretch their food dollar just so they could make it to the end of the month.
