She’s won an Elimination challenge and a Quickfire challenge, though. If anyone’s coasting, I think it’s Tu.

I’d like to trade Shea Moisture for Dove. Dove has been on some dumb shit for years, but SM threw Black women, their base, away and had their Beckyfied company retweeting a pouty-lipped Hotep because we didn’t like the ad.

I know that money isn’t really worth anything and that a dollar is only worth a dollar because we all have decided that a dollar is worth something...

Also, can we (meaning all of us established readers) be more responsible about the trolls? Do not reply to them! That lifts them out of the greys. Leave them in the mud where they belong!

Wait a minute; when did we ever fuck with Omarosa? Did I not get that e-mail? Damn it, I told the IT guy to update it. Where was I when we took that initial vote? Was I too young?

I’m so torn between “she didn’t deserve that” and “lay with dogs, you’re bound to get fleas”.

I often wonder this. I try and be straight with my 4 year old. I mean we found my dad dead together so she got a real quick crash course in the circle of life and I’m in local politics so she hears things. but then I worry about what is too much. how to preserve innocence while not sugar coating life.

I think parents grapple with this more and more. Kids are becoming more exposed to the outside world early, they go on YouTube and Netflix, they carry iPads around... And even if you manage to enforce some limits (and parental controls) at home, they go to school and hear all kinds of shit from their classmates. It’s…

What is too young to be exposed to the Internet, the nightly news, the world outside the window? I know you can’t prevent life from coming at your kids, I just wish that there were more options for parents to buffer the hits as they come.

Is it too early to provide you with lots and lots of booze?

Dear god, they are getting younger and younger!

seems legit.

As usual, black women go hard in the paint.

I can’t do “standing room” concerts either. I’m too old for that. I have bad knees but still like to wear 5" heels. A seat is a necessity.
