Mental healthcare is a very complicated issue especially when it intersects with the criminal justice system. Too many people end up in the criminal justice system and they’re woefully unprepared to help people with these issues. With the facilities for the mentally ill closed down thanks to policies of St. Raygun…

Honey them wigs is cheap but she probably looks like hot mess because she doesn’t go to a black hair salon.  I mean Koreans can do some hair but she looks like the type of conservative that doesn’t do anything “ethnic.”

I just did my taxes and because I am not going to grace Uncle Sam with any more of my hard earned cash this year I’m going to write Rashida Tlaib a very nice email and send her some money so she can keep making white men cry white tears when she calls racist actions racist because I am that sort of black woman.   

No lie here. My mom’s uncle lives in a rent controlled apartment, he was sick and in the hospital/rehab and they wanted to evict him because they can get six times the rent for his place in Brooklyn.  He’s been in that apartment since the mid 70's when he moved there from Red Hook (another place that working folks…

Dame Helen Mirren is amazing and I love her in absolutely everything. She seems like an awesome lady who might have excellent stories about all the people she knows and will tell you who you don’t have time for like your best auntie.  

I had to get Oxycontin when I had surgery a few years ago. It was a process all sorts of I.D. I only got a few pills (I ended up only taking three since they messed up my stomach so badly).  I couldn’t imagine having to do that all the time it was so convoluted for medication that I was prescribed by a doctor.  

Any of those Texas Republicans vote to build that wall those Texans on the border will shoot them on sight.  They believe in their land and let them hear the government is coming to take it they will be shot without question.  

I can be mad about his gown his waist is snatched as HELL in it and I absolutely can be salty about it. I will have to put in so much work to get my waist to be as tiny and honestly I’m lazy and a woman loosing weight is just so much more difficult for us.  

White people in certain states voted for that idiot. 42% of the population stayed home and African American women again did all they could to save this country by basically not voting for Trump at all.

I think it was very sweet.  I remember watching Regina on 227.  She’s been working steadily through the years and she’s an amazing actress hew award was well deserved. 

Regina King’s mom had me tearing up as well, she was there crying with her baby in the front row.  

Having Amazon in the city would have been HELL. Housing costs so much in New York City that finding a nice place in Manhattan is well over two million it has been that way for years. The Bronx(not White Plains just the Bronx, Bronx) can easily cost 1 million+ dollars. Brooklyn is the same and Long Island City is…

Romance Writers will be in NY this year I want to try to take my mom to the Con.  We had a great time at Book Expo. a year ago I think she will love Romance Writers as well.  I don’t judge romance readers because there are so many genres within Romance I think people who don’t give it a chance are doing themselves a…

That I believe is the only book that I recommended to my sister that she and all her friends read. In fact I had to buy myself another copy of Angus because my sister lent it to a friend who lent it to another friend and I never got it back.  I could not live in a Angusless state I had to get me another copy.  I think…

I am a librarian and I LOVE my romance readers they are some of my favorite people.  They will come and take all my new arrivals at one time they will take the books with a different cover and read them again because they forgot they read them in the first place.  I appreciate them so much.  Plus my mom is a romance…

That’s my issue with Monique her management is the biggest problem she’s having professionally. Her husband/manager is not doing right by her he’s costing her money. If he’s not a professional manager I would not let him handle my professional affairs because he keeps leaving money on the table because he doesn’t know…

If the other actors in the movie didn’t get paid to do promotion for Precious she should not get them either fair is fair. Mo’nique is making herself unemployable by letting her husband hold the reins in this relationship both personally and professionally. She’s doing herself a disservice all around by not seeking to…

The entire Empire thing was mishandled by Mo’Nique and her people.  She didn’t get the role it happens.  The show works because of the characters from what I understand of the casting they were looking at Mo’ Nique and Westley Snipes, when Teraji came in she suggested Terrance Howard because she thought the Lucious…

That’s fair, however he didn’t even try.  You come to the table with an offer and if you don’t think that it would work you at least try to negotiate if he doesn’t even bother to try that says alot about his management or mismanagement of the situation.  

I don’t listen to her show so what I am “seeing” is from the little bit that I have picked up from her other interviews and I think you are correct.  I picked up on this in her Breakfast Club Interview she kept referring to her husband/manager as “daddy.”  That completely rubbed me the wrong way because this was a…
