Isn’t this what singers do when their careers are on the decline? Please don’t tell me Rihanna is at that point yet.

Most of the time it seems like these “let’s not burden the tax-payer” arguments are formed on principal (read bias) as opposed to any real concern about an actual dollar amount. It doesn’t seem like very many inmates are requesting sexual reassignment surgery, so the difference it would make to any tax payer would be…

Or just with white people speaking foreign languages. I have a Eritrean friend who was raised in Europe who was once on the phone with a friend from her home country, and someone told her that if she didn’t want to learn English she should just go back home. She’s from Sweden and was speaking Swedish.

It’s not a bad song, but it’s pretty much indistinguishable from every other generic club house hit produced since the early 1990s. Would anyone even know this was Calvin Harris if his name wasn’t on it? Someone please explain why he’s the highest paid DJ in the world.

Pretty much exactly what I was about to say. I like her and really want to like her music too. I really, really do, but I just can’t get into. It’s too slow and every song sounds the same.

I never cared anything about 1D or their shitty music, but I’m really excited to see what comes out of Zayn’s solo career. It really makes sense now why he left the group since despite being the best singer and best looking member with the least stupid tattoos he kinda got overshadowed by the bigger, whiter…

She’s generally pretty, but this is not a good photo of her. You’d think for a magazine cover everyone could’ve done a little better.

There’s a good documentary call God Loves Uganda that aired on Front Line about a year ago that went into how the country’s rampant homophobia has been largely fueled by American born-again Christian missionaries spreading all their hate under the guise of humanitarianism. It’s really disgusting. White people just…

Ugh, these are really aggravating statistics. I grew up in Seattle and have also spent a good part of the last two years in Kenya and Uganda where it’s so common to see beggars crippled by polio asking for change and dragging themselves down the street on pieces of cardboard. It’s really sad, and it just makes me…

This girl’s good, but I don’t think it’s hard to out-perform Taylor Swift even when it’s her own song. She’s a good enough songwriter (objectively speaking, I’m not a fan), but a meh singer and performer. No edge or soul at all.

Well isn’t an appropriate punishment for a crime somewhat context dependent?
