The point here is that, for decades she has shouldered almost ALL of the fucking blame. He was impeached, yeah, but he was acquitted and moved on with his life. Hers was done at 20-whatever.

I take the same approach to life. Yes, in my kitchen are grease stains, dirty dishes, swarms of ants, spoiled food, stagnant water and a floor sticky with spilled soda. But *underneath* it all is a perfectly clean and respectful kitchen, so why should I clean it? Meritocracy will allow the cleanliness to rise to the…

If I had to listen to Jaden Smith for more than 30 seconds, I’d want him out of my house too.

Jaden: “Mom, how can mirrors be real if our eyes aren’t real?”

Jada: “you’re ready to move out of my house”

‘He’s right. The time is now. He’s 15. It’s time for him to leave the house.’”

A child’s brain isn’t fully developed until they’re 24 or so. There is NO way that Jayden was prepared to live on his own at 15.

I don’t understand how Jaden or Jada thought emancipation would get him out of their bubble. Everything he’s ever accomplished derives from his parent’s fame and money. If he wanted out of the bubble, going to college, preferably abroad, is the only thing that might have done the trick.

EVERY 15 year old thinks they are grown up, their parents are holding them back and they need to move out. One good thing about being lower middle class, my parents could just reply “How are you planning to pay for that?” 

Mom of the year

13, and it’s hitting me hard having a just turned 13 year old daughter who is going through so much dramatic change right now. She may not always like her dad and me but man she needs us. I can’t even imagine what sort of pain that would override the instinct I feel so strongly to keep her from feeling the kind of…

One of the most powerful things I ever heard about suicide came from my therapist, who told me that suicide is contagious. And that if I were to take my life it would send the message to my young niece that suicide is an option. An option that people take and that she could take if her life got tough at some point.…

Epidemiologists can literally map the spread of suicide as if it was an infectious disease. Sharing graphic images and glorifying those who commit suicide via depictions of everyone focusing on them and having cathartic emotional breakthroughs triggered by their deaths is statistically the same as coughing on them…

Ooh, you make a good point - if something totally different had happened we’d probably have reacted differently. Biting insight there.

This seems like it’s merely controversial because Pusha T presented it that way. It just doesn’t seem wild to me. A black man wore blackface as social commentary. I think crazier ideas have been executed just in 2017 alone for the sake of art with less attention than this. This is another one of those non-news type…

This is just dumb.

A black person using it to make commentary on black face is perfectly safe employing it. Drakes problem is that in recent years mixed race people are increasingly being tossed out of the club. In 2007 most of us were fine with the idea of Halle Berry, Alicia Keys, Bob Marley Barrack Obama (!) as black. Something has…

Is this controversial? A black man uses blackface to explore a social issue? Like Spike Lee didn’t already go there? Ready to be educated.

Perhaps someone can educate me...Drake is Afro-Canadian from my understanding and, as an Afro-Canadian, used blackface to make an artistic and political point. In what way is that “bad,” such that he “dare[d] to take the chance of appearing in blackface”? I’m at a loss.

“dare to take the chance of appearing in blackface”... Drake’s been melanated his whole life. He ain’t appropriating shit, just taking it back. Struggling to understand the “Drake’s raciss” takes all over the place.

That definitely sounds like something that might be glossed over for the sake of “teen audience appeal,” considering how eager fans were to embrace Snape as a Good Guy. Speaking of which, he had more than a little bit of Nice Guy Syndrome going on, eh? Ironically, of course, since he wasn’t ever actually “nice,” but…

Oh man, don’t make sex workers deal with incels. They already face high rates of violence, and I have to think that would only be increased by dealing with these violent, entitled dickwads.
